Are we Americans this Dumb?

[ChinoSouthsideX3]

It's atleast good to know that the entire world thinks people from the United States are dumb as hell.

[wing3r79]

if by "America" you men U.S.A you're stupid, pretty easy

[Midnightheula]

My favorite is whether or not Star Wars is based on a true story and where KFC was made. Thier answers are hilarious!

[enantiomer2000]

americans aren't this dumb. I knew every single answer and considered them ridiculously simple...

[TriggyStudios]

Gotta love Charles Firth and the chaser boys!

[Joflcopter]

there is not enough derp to describe how much derp there is in this

[monkeydood6]

im korean american and i love america all you gatta do is put up false information on the media and they will believe it and they dont even question it. except for the smart once that actually thinks. but all the questions they asked a high schooler can answer

[cr4yv3n]

unedited...sadly lol

[sonbobshiro]

do those idiots get an education?

[marcnmaxibons]

American's got big problems upstairs in the membrane.

[Bouser]

@marcnmaxibons Insane in the membrane - Cypress Hill

[besmart78]

AMericans are dumb and have no cultures and they are very closed minded bigots

[straaler5]

how many world wares have there been? THREE! starwars is based on a true story true or false: TRUE. fail. how many eiffel towers are there in france, UUH. I'D SAY ABOUT 10.

[NorthernerMatty123]

*which ones are throwing the rocks*

[NorthernerMatty123]

haha what a quote "which was are throwing the rocks" classic.

[NorthernerMatty123]

this video has low popularity bcoz americans dont like to accept the truth Lol

[rejectedreject]

Americans are dumb, but Brits aren't better...

[rejectedreject]

I'm just waiting for 12.12.2012... I just hope that something big happens. This world needs a change.

[RandomnessRawr1]

bahahahaah thats funyy ' where was the berlin war??'

'...'

' beleive me i do not know.. but im thinking' bahahah whatta dumbasss

[powerpuffboy1000]

KFC comes from Utah believe it or not.

[andy77718]

what is the problem with Americans?? Are they inbred or what?? I know they are self cnetred and isolated, but this is just plain stupid. Ignorence at it's core. But it's funny though

[Rabadat]

everyone already knows americans are the stupidest people on the planet

[muhammadasvat]

americans just know america!!!!

Thats it!!!

There world is small ..

do they know where the soccer/football 2010 world cup goin to be held in

??

[Nmber6]

@muhammadasvat

your comment is 3 months old, but still funny.

Your premise: An American's world view is small because we don't know where the soccer/football 2010 world cup will be held.

Yes, our world view would be enriched if only more of us were soccer fans!

This is what passes for intelligent criticism...at least on youtube

(*shakes head in astonishment)

[azynkron]

@Nmber6 To be honest, I hate football (the real one.. not the pussy american rugby wannabe but I couldn't take the pain version).. But of course you should know where the biggest championship of the biggest sport in the world takes place. If for nothing else so you have something to talk about with the rest of the world.

[jakedenos]

there is a diference between dumb and ignorent . i don't know how you spell it , that does not meen i'm stupid I just don't know (point proven?)

[Auberginemule]

1:06 he is outside a Fungrys sign. Hahaha

[sharkkvantis]

Even if the majority of Americans were dumb, it doesn't make you dumb just for being an American.

So I, an American, proudly admit, a LOT of Americans are idiots. 60% of them don't believe in evolution. That'd make the majority of us idiots.

Does that make me an idiot? No.

[nilesriver2]

Yes, because you used evolution as an example. Evolution and Darwinism are different. even christians believe in evolution. so I guess that was your stupid question and you proved these guys right. good on yah mate!

[zapparina]

What state does KFC come from? What, the Chicken? I don't know... Ah ha ha ha ha!!

This clip is not from England, it's from Australia, from a TV show called The Chaser's War on Everything, they're also the guys who managed to drive their car out the front of President Bush's Hotel during the APEC meeting.

[grantapuslafsalot]

Why would England try make America look stupid when if you watch any American show its full of loads of dumb ones anyway?

Not forgetting the cleverest people in the world (Stephen Hawking, Isaac Newton, Charles Darwin, etc) all come from a terrible stupid country about a 20th the size of 'the best country in the world'.

[cinomini11]

Cleverest is not a word.

[BennyH11]

You idiot. The guys interviewing are from Australia not England. Point proven I think.

[grantapuslafsalot]

I realise they are from Australia, maybe if I didn't have a load of Americans thinking these they were British I would have not brought the them up. Oh not forgetting the majority of Australians are British two lol

[PirateEyepatch]

Stephen Hawking can't even wipe his own ass; Isaac Newton never got laid. Apart from all the Calculus and having apples fall on his head, he also spent most of his time tryhing to figure out how many angels could fit on the head of a pin. Yeah, real genius there. Plus, did I mention that he never got laid?

[IWentInsane]

@grantapuslafsalot troll harder bud

[83magrelo]

why you people from the usa don't create another word instead of say AMERICA you are not only americans colombia mexico brasil also we are!

[person107]

lol niggas tryna act smart

[mirorih2]

maan XD

where was the Berlin wall

WTF, every1 knows that XDu.

and al qiada is a terrorist grp. some of the U.S. army is in somalia and help sivilians from em

[BuddyBoy091994]

what is the main religion of Isreal?

Uhhhh muslim.

rofl

What state is KFC from? idk

What does it stand for? Kentucky Fried Chicken.

Im now officially ashamed to be an american

[WhatIsAlaviable]

You shouldn't be ashamed to be American, if it wasn't for you lot, I wouldn't be laughing my ass off now :)

[BuddyBoy091994]

were not all stupid. just most of us

[Jimbogf]

There are still many intelligent and well educated people in the US. The 'others' get sucked into a culture focused on materialism, fads, gossip, celebrities and social status. The "coolness" factor, errrr cancer of American society.

[byunjoe]

Thousands of asian students flock to ivy league schools every year.

[khehl]

not to mention the u.s. has one of the worst schooling systems.. thats why Canadians go to the U.S. for colleges to get amazing marks..helped by their easy SAT test

[PenguinWalrus0]

They probably asked hundreds of people, but for entertainment, only show the really stupid ones.

[PenguinWalrus0]

Which one throws the rocks?

[MyHeartsSunset]

wow. this was filmed in venice beach? im fucking ashamed.

[Funmakinmoney]

Don't ever compare Canadians to Americans, that's like comparing a brain to your ass.

[ihatethispartyy]

canadians are useless

[thetubeisgr8]

As this was posted over 3 years ago, so god knows when it was originally filmed, I wonder what a more recent video would conclude on this subject?

[mytoystory]

The same.

[stylezNout]

on some of them they ask a question, but use a different response

[FLCLjimjeff]

35% percent of the world cant point out iraq on a map cause their children

[theman12345222222222]

americas are dumb 5o% of americas cant enving pont out lriaq on the map

[MisterHougy]

Like Canadians can?

[FocusMix]

America is like anywhere from 27 - 30th place in the world in terms of education. The average college student cannot pass a fourth grade curriculum from the 1800's.

Hell, why have a nation of people that know how to think, when your bread and butter depends on them not thinking?

Look around you - Mediocrity is the new excellence. This is why it hasn't even been a decade since 9/11 and we no longer question it. The movie "Idiocracy" illustrates this well.

[dorkbusterz]

wow this is dumb

hardly any american's are this dumb.

they probably interview tons of people,

and then they just put the few that answered the questions wrong.

anyone could do that in any country and make a deceiving video like this.

plus in America sure there's more dumb people than most other countries, like countries in europe.

but then again, the US has the same number of people as the entire Continent of Europe does.

plus the US has tons of the smartest people in the world.

[JoeyD12345678]

Haha, EU has 100 million people more than America, and yet America still has the lowest education rate in the western hemisphere, and all of europe to. Hell, india and mexico have a higher education rate than america and they are hardly a developed country. I could probably see some third world countrys being generaly smarter than america. Look it up, America has a 50% drop out rate for it's abolecents. Haha, 1 in every 2 teens wont graduate, I find that funny.

[dorkbusterz]

okay, for one, we're comparing 26 countries, to 1.

also have you ever been to India?

some parts of it are not advanced, but the urban area's are highly advanced, and are very modern.

plus, if america's so dumb,

then why does it have the highest GDP?

compared to any other country?

also i have no idea how you got the information that every 1 in 2 teens won't graduate???

that's not even a close estimate.

plus, have you even been to America?

obviously not.

[JoeyD12345678]

I have been to upstate newyork and nyc many times and every american i talk to seems to be stupid like these people. Your country has 300 million people so about 46,000 per capita isnt that hard to come by, Watch loose change. Near the end you see how currupt your country is and why your in dept, and the only reason you have such a high GDP. Its something I cant explain to you myself.

[666hamlet666]

been to the US many times and most people tend to know alot about what they need to know to do their job and what interests them (sadly thats not much) but NOTHING else.

I wouldnt put my kids in an american school.

Its rarely that you come across an american with a broad knowledgebase.

[HeroOfHyla]

I can't speak for the average American, but I think that everyone I know would know the answers to at least 70% of these questions. Though I go to one of the best schools in the country, so it's definitely not the average.

[lordblasfhemy]

yea i am from america and most americans are goddamm lemmings

[butsch99]

Hehe, American= stupid , :) sry but....

[Krytopsy]

I agree they're really dumb.

[emma6767]

Yes a lot of Americans are stupid, but that goes for every other country out there as well.

There's always going to be stupid people in countries.

BTW I don't even like America. I want to get out ASAP & move to Italy or France :D

[azynkron]

@emma6767 Just pray that they don't treat you in immigrations as you treat French and Italians in the US. Then it will be a short trip..

[emma6767]

@azynkron How do I treat French & Italians exactly?

[MrDzver]

@emma6767 no, people in other countries are not this stupid.. no way, its a result of consumerism i.e. keeping up with the kardashians, keep it up fellars, you might nuke the world one day cause you think the spaghetti monster is invading

[Tanklover001]

Wow im American and im not this stupid. This is pathetic hes asking complete morons these questions.... Axis of evil Iran,Iraq, and North Korea easy as that Jerusalem isn't even a country, and KFC from... Kentucky friend chicken.. KENTUCKY.... that was the most embarrasing thing even more embarrasing then saying a human has 1 kidney.....

[jedus1]

This is the Norm in America, the Majority are juts above needing life support to function. Their brains barely have the processing capabilities to operate their autonomic functions. I would say 7 out of 10 People are too stupid to be allowed to vote.

[Phobophages]

@Zigyzigy: I Agree.

[JazzRoyalty]

OMG this is solid gold SOLID GOLD:

"Where is the West Bank? / On the East Coast probably *laughs*"

"Where was the Berlin Wall? *long pause*"

and finally the jogging guy "Mm the Palestinians and the Israelis *pause* which one is throwing the stones?"

By the way I don't think Americans are dumb at all, they don't get proper education that's why for some of them the world ends at the borders of their state (when they're lucky).

[ProfetaParanoia]

Oh, I disagree.

It's not about education, it's about being plain stupid.

"The Berlin Wall"!! I mean...!! C'mon! How DUMB do you have to be??

[JakeTiDe]

Damn, they seem to be with their minds somewhere else (or nowhere). Like question from which state KFC comes from, while dude knew what KFC means, he didn't get that Kentucky is a state.

[zigyzigy13]

MOST Americans are dumb and we all foreigners know that to be 100% true.

[Ilovemiley120]

lol I didn't know the answer to some of these but that's cuz well

1) I'm 12

2) I couldn't catch what they said.

But I mean come on! 'Where does KFC come from?' it's called KENTUCKY!!!

[wickedness1243]

lmao isn't this from chasers war on everything? this show is da bomb! always wanted to say that ;)

[hu0189743]

damn im american but these people are stupid

[lalapop28]

there's stupid people everywhere... they just don't have them all on videos saying stupid things

[ProfetaParanoia]

sorry man, but I bet if you do the same in ANY OTHER developed country, this won't happen...

[lalapop28]

...still there's stupid people everywhere

and it's not like i'm defending americans, i do think they're stupid (i'm mexican) but still... go to europe... let's say france or the uk... i'm sure you'll find stupid people.. maybe not as stupid as these, but there are

[waraider1]

i was watching 1 earlier and a girl answers to this name one state in australia she said kangaroo

[yourmumisadick]

they did the same thing in britain except all the english people answered correctly and only kids and really old people got them wrong

[lalapop28]

well if you ask the british what the british currency is, i'm pretty sure they'd know

[lily8014]

Americans are SO stupid, I'm so happy to be a Belgian. We aren't stupid.!!

[amoedr]

belge zijn oek stoem ze man

massa's bekrompe mense

[inononame]

[amoedr]

en geen klein hoopke ze

ik zeg et u kijk naar man bijt hond

[inononame]

[amoedr]

ni de meerderheid maar toch massa's

[theman12345222222222]

ME I FOMR CANADA

[garside0505]

im sorry but how funny and just goes to show americans in there true light

although obv there are a few exceptions

[JSMyst]

hahahaha dumb americans and u wonder y u got screwed over by a bunch of arabs

[titoreviro]

Don't worry. You could fly into any city on earth and get similar kind of responses. Just go an hour inland.

[LukeExcell]

Lol star wars is based ona true story.....Erm....True!

[Ilovemiley120]

lol ya this is comedy releif for me. (I'm Canadian)

[martyaus2905]

American really are stupid, how they got to be a super power beats me. Maybe they got a few smart people and they are the ones that run the country, who knows.

[instantwagner]

wow people are funny

[aous13]

WOW! some people are definitely STUPID

that's just sad

[Unlocalist]

american goverment have moulded them this dumb

[AsherzTop]

americans are dum asses

[TaraTerrorr]

hah...

Americans aren't the only idiots

they don't pay attention where all there

crap comes from...America(:

[aeiou12aeiou12]

my god americans are retards

[MetalManDan7]

lmao americans are so fucking dumb.

[Jotto999]

To all the people saying "They could have simply cut out the correct answers", of course they did that. The point they are making in this video is "Wow, a grown adult does not know how many Eiffel Towers there are". They are deliberately pointing out the lows, they aren't trying to indicate average, the point of the vid was to show the more ridiculous answers, duh. How can you not know what a mosque is...how can someone get to adult age and not know these things? What about school??

[LiveActionSilence]

Oh yes, Americans are quite dumb. Just ask a whole bunch of people some questions and edit out all the people who answer correctly and POOF there's FACT! It's brilliant, I tell you!

[wastachuck]

this is from an australian tv show "the chaser's war on everything"

[ajs765]

no its from CNNNN by the same dudes

[Zorlockian]

I'm not trying to stand up for America, fuck America.

But you can make this kind of video about any country. Just question a lot of people and you WILL find several that answer like this.

Again, it's just much easier to find tards in America.

Haha

[abazovski]

heheh stupid fucks

[shuikyou]

holy shit

-facepalm-

[shoulderkolibri]

Bet the guy didn't even know Kentucky was a stat. I bet he thought it was some other nigger with a weird name.

[Dellboy34]

yep thats america full of shit and illiterate

[TaraTerrorr]

explain to me,

where did your computer

software come from?

haha your quite dumb to now aren't you?

[Dellboy34]

Thats industrious, not intelligence.

[mrsandman570]

Glad i'm not american. Yeah sorry all americans are dumb and fat

[stockyja]

if u've ever been to school, watched TV or simply existed you should know the answers to most of these questions...

[slindlerl]

i think these people are uneducated, that doesn't mean all are stupid. in every country u can find people who can't answer these questions. They may know about something else.

[Mikelart94]

who cares if theyre stupid.

many countries are stupid.

but if its true , then how can people be stupid if they go too school,?

[dallas20007]

We American are been programmed, most of us cant think, and we can be programmed to any direction at any time via media propaganda, and Hollywood. We are programmed by the media for five things,

1. Dont think we would think for you,

2. We must spend till we bankrupt.

3. Worship Hollywood stars they are our gods.

4. The black, image must reflect the salve master,

5. Women we must be obsess with her body not for the beautiful personality.

[Milller88]

Here is a challenge for all you assholes that think all Americans are stupid. Start off by asking random people in your own countries these questions. Find out how many retarded answers you get. Besides, many Americans dont care about what goes on in the world they dont get the paper, watch the news, or read about events from internet sources.

Final comment this is from the Chasers show, they choose only the idiots and they were mostly New Yorkers.

[usergently]

I guess the problem with the situation of humanity is related to the majority of idiots everywhere.

[silenthunter07]

u r correct. the problem here when they are majority of people that 'idiot' and didn't get the right view of current situation.

Democracy will be win by the majority, so what will happen when the majority belong to the idiot people. u will know the answer by ur own logic.

[silenthunter07]

look on how these people being doctrine by their government by using their media and school lessons. so pity on these people.

O american, open ur heart open ur mind. may God give u mercy. amin

[shoulderkolibri]

Pitiful thing is most american's love Jesus and Jehovah very greatly, yet are all dumb as a nail.

[brownshoeT2]

theres always dumb ppl any where... not all Americans are like that...

[330626]

this is becuase americans have such a biased and self-based education system, notice how all the questions were either georgraphy, history or current events?

[eva0208]

i heard that americans are supposed to be very friendly, nice and warm, but also not the brightest people on earth. a friend of mine was in america for a year abroad and her guest father actually felt the need to explain to her what a radio is and why there's voices coming out of the machine and explained to her what a tv is. another friend got asked whether we germans have strawberries here and another one got asked whether hitler is still alive. xD

[xertaqaadka]

thanks australia! america is retard pple home when my grandmom become as like this one iwana send her america at least to tell that idiot where brazil is

dumbest pple alive

[neonhellcat]

Wow! I'm astonished to find that Camranwtf thinks australians are "Eurofags." Maybe you can be in the remake of this video.

[kklol7]

Well actually Australia used to be a British prison colony, but yeah they aren't part of Europe.

[SirBoxer03]

Jeez I'm american but got damn don't get this defensive, this clearly wasn't EVERYONE interviewed and more than likely they only showed the American's that got the questions wrong on here.

Chill out it's just a video.

We're still the country that foreigners dream to start a new life in, so call us dumb if you want.

[lil2wow4u]

I really hope this is fake cuz some of these questions were ridiculous...

EX: "Is Star Wars Based on a true story?" "Yes"

??????????????

[Camranwtf]

fuck u australia! All u show are the few retarded Americans, out of the probally 100 u interviewed. suck a fat dick u eurofags!

[kranskyman]

y would they show the people that get the answers correct?

they do the same thing wen they interview ppl in australia aswell, the only problem is people actually see this and think that every1 from america is stupid, but theyre just nuffies

[OrangeSkinnys]

"fuck u australia....u eurofags" :|

since when has australia been in europe??

and u call other people retarded???

[Thizalixa]

camranwtf, LOL australia isnt in europe..

[apearl420]

i just came back from florida a month ago and they thought that canada was in europe. lol...

[Zygiro]

All they interviewed were niggers, foreigners and rednecks. Gtfo eurofags.

[ecko1o1]

Euro ownz America bitch.

[kklol7]

Hurrrrrr

Don't fool yourself, there are plenty of stupid Europeans.

[theshininggenji]

not the same kind of stupid though, americans are peter griffen stupid.

[kklol7]

There are people that are all types of stupid all over the world.

A stupid person in Europe is not smarter than a stupid person in America based solely on the fact that they are European.

[r31ncarnat3d]

True, thank GOD I'm going to college. If my kids ever end up like these people, I'm just going to smack them until their IQ actually goes up from the head trauma.

[x2f01mick]

I've traveled abroad quite a bit, and other countries have dumbasses too. We're just more arrogant and like to flaunt ignorance as if it's a quality to be admired. Probably wouldn't work overseas because most dumb people are smart enough to keep their mouths shut. Whereas in the states people just want to be on t.v. But you have to admit we do have a few winners in the states, e.g. Einstein and Tesla. They do count, because we are smart enough to import some geniuses if we are running a lil low.

[mitsotribal]

It sounds logic why you Americans are victims of your goverment....

Uneducated...Ignorant...Carele­ss

All that won't always give you an excuse....

By not doing nothing you are corensposible about the terrorism and the pain your goverment causes....Americans wake up,for your sake and for everybody's sake

[ewok76]

You'll find all sorts of people anywhere you go. Some of the answers given are truly funny but general knowledge is not necessarily an indicator of intelligence.

[F22supermaneuver]

americans have better stuff t do than this shit

[kyasuriin234]

wow...those people are idiots...

im going to move to Canada or something...i feel like im living around idiots

[ownade]

you guys in usa are stupid, the sooner you realize it, the sooner you can seek help. My advice.

[Genesis50000]

Americans at know how to stand up for themselves we would seek help from the French before you

[afwend4u]

for fuk sake a mosque is a place were muslims pray an average human has two kidneys there is one eiffel tower in paris Collateral damage is damage that is unintended or incidental to the intended outcome. the west bank is situated west of the jordan river next to the dead sea.... seriously americans are dumb.......

AUSTRALIA GIVES A GOOD EDUCATION :)

[Genesis50000]

most Americans know all that We have an education system to ya know

[Robopencil]

I give Americans the rainbow sticker for being grade A stupid.

[borohenda]

dumbass americans!!! my 5yr old brother could have answered all those questions. no wonder u stupid mofo's elected bush the 2nd time around.

[KristynWhitneyM]

Classic. Americans are dumb.

[HarryGDMF]

hahahahaha i could have answered all these questions when i was 5 seriously!! oh yeah and im English

[Genesis50000]

Jackass and no you couldn't oh i tested your I.Q you can back with an I.Q of 20

[HarryGDMF]

You tested my I.Q did you?? Well ive tested your too it was -20. so fuck off you thick fucker. Go eat yourself into your grave you fuckin fat yank pig. DUH

[vsboy25]

they need to be educated on life and not focus on drugs and wars

[georgexxx83]

Are Americans dumb? YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

[Ohstend]

Are we Americans this Dumb?

"Yes you are".

These questions are so easy, I could answer 90 % of those questions when I was 12 years old.

And no I'm not the type that's called nerd ;). I'm a normal kid from belgium M8 ^^

[Thibsey]

i agree

most americans believe that we in Holland walk on woudenshoes smoke weed every day and go to the hookers just coz its legal in The Netherland.

plus turbocop7sfs you might be dumb i dont know but if it where so you wouldnt know either coz everybody is incapeble of self-observation esspecialy when one is dumb

so are Americans dumb? not all just most

should you be worried about it? not realy

if your content with your self your leading a good lif dunb or smart
