Why 2016 Actually Wasn't The Worst Year Ever

It's pretty easy to dismiss last year as rotten one, but there's actually a few reasons why 2016 actually wasn't the worst year ever.

Oh and who could forget Batman vs Superman being released? And Mark Zuckerberg pledging $3 billion to medical research.

There's lots you may have forgotten and this brilliant infographic takes a look back at the entire year that was - good and bad.
