They also have one for Britain. :huh: KFC comes from kentucky idiot! Juduism is the state religion of Isreali, a triangle has three sides, Feldel Castro is the exleader of Cuba, Star wars is not a true story, they nuke Hirmosa, and there is 2 world wars!!! Some people got these wrong! An opinion of America shouldn't be based on a couple morons!

They nuked Hiroshima, and Nagasaki.

I'm fairly sure they are actors, as the video is from CNNNNNN.

I bet they're real people. While I drove my truck, occasionally I'd listen to the CB at night for a little while in a truckstop and once in a while there'd be some ridiculous discussion between 2-5 morons who had no idea what they were talking about, they just wanted to nuke somebody.

I would hope they needed a bit of time to come up with some of those stupid answers, like they had to interview 100 people before they found one who didn't know what a triangle was, but there were a few questions they asked that I didn't know the answer to either, and some of them involving Israel I wouldn't've known if I hadn't spent a couple weeks there a few years back because, like everyone else, I don't really care one way or the other about 99% of the rest of the world, I've got enough going on with my life that if it doesn't affect me it doesn't matter.

There are plenty of people in other countries who are just as ignorant, but they don't have ubiquitous TV programs polling them about their stupidity, PLUS, America has a more direct effect on their lives and they watch our TV/movies so they know a lot more about us than we do them. We're not really concerned with Uganda unless we live there, right?

and there is 2 world wars!!!

Two world wars with the word world war in their name. I think to date there have been...7?

*EDIT* 5, is the correct answer

War of Spanish Succession
7 Years' War
Napoleonic War
WWI
WWII

There are tons of stupid people in every country. A lot of them make it on tv.

Pretty sure they're not actors. But yeah, you can find complete idiots like these in every country I'm afraid. Still somehow funny hearing them try to form a coherent thought. And depressing.

They'd be real people on the street. Julian would've asked hundreds of Americans, and then selected every dumb answer for the video.

Feldel Castro is the exleader of Cuba
Isn't Fidel still the dictator?

Also, when the "country that begins with U" question came up, I thought of Ukraine instead of the US.

These people must not be real people. They're actors. Please tell me they're smart adults who are just acting...I mean..."Where was the Berlin Wall?" "Israel."
I can also answer most of these correctly even though I'm 13...

Pretty much.

One bus driver on my route was a complete moron. Her most memorable line was "Why are we trying to blow up the moon when we haven't even landed on it yet?" when we did that ice test a while back.

This. Also, hate to break it to you Bobbtjoe, but the first Kentucky Fried Chicken store was actually in Ohio. think about it. Why would you open a store called "Kentucky" Fried Chicken in Kentucky? No-one ever gets that question right.

Exactly. This is typical Chaser work.

My first thought was Uganda. Followed quickly by my own.

I only thought Uganda with a U, and no wonder half of Americans vote Republican if they're this retarded!
