As an American, this video shames me...

Like the link says, I'm sure they discarded a lot of correct answers, but still, the sheer number of unique faces botching some of these questions shames me.
 
You could just as easily do this in any country. Discard 10, 20, even 100 correct answers and keep only the incorrect ones.

How absurd.
 
Nothing new. Not really all that different from Leno's "Man on the Street" interviews.

You do have to wonder how many Americans they left out that had intelligent answers instead of just showing all the dumb and stupid answers.

Judging by me experience living in America my whole life, I would think they only had to toss out 10-25% to get to just the idiots, because they are obviously a huge majority.
 
Even if they edited this to look as bad as possible. I still cant believe how clueless so many people are.

Even if they set these people up on the flag planting thing. If anybody knew where these countries were they would have said something.
 
How absurd. If I were to go to England and ask various questions about world events and American pop culture and I interviewed enough people I could make a 6-8 minute clip of the dumb asses I found. Being stupid is not exclusive to Americans if you didn't know. 😉

Look on the bright side, you now know a number of people that you absolutely are smarter than. :laugh:

Why does everyone love to claim that Americans are so stupid, yet they embrace so much of what Americans have created?

Because the people who created those things are part of the 10-25%.

I guess I can't really dispute that.
