Meet the "Nihilist Penguin."

In a famous documentary, one penguin stops following the herd. Instead of going to the ocean to feed, he turns around and walks alone toward the mountains.

Here is what this rebel bird teaches us about life, freedom, and the power of "But Why?"

The "Nihilist Penguin" is a famous scene from Werner Herzog's documentary "Encounters at the End of the World", in which a disoriented penguin abandons its colony and heads inland towards the mountains, away from food and safety, seemingly without purpose.
