  • ...this can't be true... fucking child can answer this question and would just laugh at the show host

    this is to ridiculous to be true

  • MILLIONS of Americans are ignorant about their own country, and what hey know about other countries are MOSTLY derived from the Internet and other US medias. Ask them about China, and they always repeat the same few things about each country.

    IGNORANT, LACKADAISICAL......leading to stupidty that makes other nationalities LAUGHING at you.

    When you claim to be a superpower, you'd better ensure the MAJORITY of your people are highly educated, well travelled and highly intellectual.

  • @menzerna1234 I agree and I am from the greatest country in the world England, America should learn from canada and australia to bow down to the mother country.

  • 70% Americans dont even have passports!!! hahahaaaa....The silly excuse is, US is already so big, so no need to travel. hahhahaaa.......!!! Classic Frogs Trapped Under The Flowerpot for too long. IGNORANCE breeds stupidity and recalcitrance. US is nly a military superpower...in other aspects, its just merely a DEVELOPING COUNTRY...with 46million living on foodstamps, and MILLIONS who cant even afford to fall sick'!!!! Thats a 3rd world country characteristic!!! Hahahhaaaaaaaaa.

  • @menzerna1234 agree I am from the UK, screw the americans those god luvin bastards.

  • "Yeah, China is a town just outside of Darwin."

  • Wow..... Id totally outsmart them all and the interviewer!

  • To be fair, they probably interviewed a lot more people and only picked out the dumb ones. The average American does kind of suck at geography, but we aren't THIS stupid.

  • Aww, come on. Get a guy in a suit and a few cameras and people will say anything. Its like the trick where a man used paper slips to buy $25k in jewelry. watch?v=3Vz_YTNLn6w

  • gosh lol why r they so stupid!?

  • Americans are just rednecks, white-trash and a bunch of fucking hillbillies!!

  • @kreativdronare Really? because im willing to bet that i can most certainly beat you in any sort of test.

  • The leaning tower of pizza hahahaha.

  • Good they need it.

  • Oh no. Dome people dont know what satire is. Only 37% of americans have passports. They have no buildings over 600 years old.

  • CAPS LOCK WILL NOT BE HELD DOWN MRSPIFFY1000. ITS HAD ENOUGH OF PEOPLE LIKE YOU AND YOUR ENDLESS TYRANICAL OPPRESSION OF ITS USE. AND IF YOU WERENT OFFENDED, WHY DID YOU POST TWO LONG COMMENTS AND EVEN MENTION HOW YOU ARE "not offended,...blah blah blah" !!! are you sure youre not mrs spiffy? you read like a girl.?!

  • These people are just being polite and not wanting to offend someone who seems to be proud of Australia.

  • @adamgrimsley correct

  • Dear me Why did I not pay more attention when I went to Perth! I could have gone to see the leaning tower of pizza! :D

  • Comment removed

  • @identitygone Learn: Caps lock is for rare and extremely limited situations. Learn to type without it. And no, elementary information is asking where the Eiffel tower is, when someone gets that right and then you tell them that there is also an Eiffel tower in Melbourne, that's just telling people shit. If you search long enough, you'll find someone who wont want to offend you and will swallow it.

    And I'm not offended, merely disappointed by the stupidity evidenced by you as you point it out

  • Honestly, I'd like to laugh at these stupid people you chose with such care to interview, but does anyone really care about Australian landmarks? 97% of the country is uninhabited, how would you expect even stupid people to know that much about it? Hell, do you have an Eiffel tower replica in Melbourne? Who gives a fuck? Most of the people at least had a clue about the recognizable landmarks.

  • @MrSpiffy1000 Americans are stupid. End of.

  • Comment removed

  • Considering the number of Australians who come over to London and get things wrong this is a wee bit hypocritical. I met a girl last year who thought there was a beach in Stratford.

  • americans suck

  • oh, come on people! it is such a shame!

    GO to australia and check this out, pls...

  • AHHhahahahaHAhhAhAhAAHAHAHHaah­ahHAhahaHAhahAhahhaahAHAHhahaA­HhahAhAhah ... I love this guy lying to them .... XAHXAHHXahahahahaxhaxh WE AUSTRALIANS have the original ahahahahhahahahahahaha THE GREAT wall of china ... AXHahahahxhaahahahahaahahahaha­h

  • AHHhahahahaHAhahAhAHHAhahAhAhA­HAhAhAhAhAhAhAhAhAAHAHAHHaahah­HAhahaHAhahAhahhaahAHAHhahaAHh­ahAhAhah ... I love this guy lying to them .... XAHXAHHXahahahahaxhaxh WE AUSTRALIANS have the original ahahahahhahahahahahaha THE GREAT wall of china ... AXHahahahxhaahahahahaahahahaha­h

  • dumbass americans

  • you know what it shows you how much of drones these people are, they do not question any of what he says because he looks official and has a camera. biggest problem in the U.S is that the people are easily manipulated.

  • thats hilarious!!

    U.S.A best country in the world,yeah!!!

  • I cant believe this shit!

    Kids in my country know this shit before their 10th birthday...

  • @ClipMaster93 in my too :)

  • It is in human nature to ignore outside world and know nothing about it if you are fed and your physical existence needs are well satisfied.

    Yes indeed.. Americans are victim of their own well being. But don't worry, the world is catching up each minute.

    Just be sure all you want is only car, home and big fat burger, because for me that is not enough and I don't want my children to grow around stupid people.

  • 1:53 - 2:04 .....F-...F-...F-..Phail.

  • I'm American and I'm planning on being a Geographer so I can teach the dumbasses of America. That way, this won't happen again.

  • Lol this is sooo funny :) but i bet the cuted out pieces of tape becouse not 100% of americans are bloody stupid as hell,i bet there was at least 1 person that started loling when the guy sayed that Taj Mahal is in Australia or that China is town outside darwin,i know i did ;)

  • one of those women was british in all fairness....plus, how many people do you think he asked before he got them??? i think he deliberatly went to backwoods america looking for ignorant people...these are NOT average americans.

  • America has a population of over 300,000,000 people. There are a lot of stupid people and a lot of smart people, as there are in any country.

  • I'm not even American and I'm embarrassed....

  • If Abe Lincoln hadn't convinced us to go to War with Iraq in World War 1 then England would still be controlled by Osama Bin Laden!

  • L.O.L They really bought that crap what that guy said. ^^

  • but it's not, it's in Brisbane (i was like, where the hell Brisbane is)!! kidding, of course i know! hahahaha

  • I love this video, hahaha

  • i am a smart american! these dumb ass people are embarrasing as hell!

  • how can old american be so stupid i understand that the new generation got lazzy and whiny and so but these old people went to school when there was a good education

  • hahahahaaha killed me. I loe the way he says: Yeah yeah:)))))

  • DINGO GOT MY BABY! KILL yourself you little fucks

  • @anthonywatson64 Okayyy, a dingo got someone's baby when they went camping in the middle of fucking nowhere dude...... so??? You really need to improve how you insult other people's nation because you're horrible. I don't think you know enough about Australia to even begin thinking about insulting us.

  • Trans-Siberian railroad...yeah, yeah.

  • ok i don't think its fair to tell the people that they are wrong when they are correct since its shown that people tend to physiologically believe in authorities for no reason so if they were correct that's pretty mean to be like no you are wrong and then give them bs...-_-

  • I love how the British believe they don't live in Europe :p....it's so cute to see them swell up. As for the Aussstraulians (as pronounced) I have nothing to say other than good comedy :).

  • tash ma hall yeah thats in Vegas :P

  • HELLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

    WTF ABOUT CANBERRA!!

  • omg this shit is funny as hell :)

  • now everyone copies george bush legacy hahahahaha lmfao

  • People are saying they only found some dumb americans but most americans are dumb

    They dont go in mass protest to the healthcare compnaies (unlike France for example), they think its ok not to give all americans healthcare, think its ok that you need a car in 90% of USA, dont understand the bureaucracy is because of multiculturalism,

  • @akumie2 dont complain when you cant live in Miami without speaking spanish (a foreign language), think socialism is bad without even looking up facts, voted fpr Bush twice, dont complain when trillions is spent on pointless wars, gets mad when gas is expensive instead of using cleaner energy, people who have big gardens yet dont plant food and still complain everything is so expensive, think usa is so great without even looking up how other countries work, they dont even change the

  • @akumie2 pointless 2 party political system...

    Oh americans, either act stupid or act smarton youtube when you are not changing a singel thing

  • fuck me, do americans even go to school?

    i understand its a small proportion, but still it is quite sad in this modern day to find people who claim to be from "the greatest country in the world" who dont know shit about it.

  • @ScreamoBaller Yes, we do. Notice, they only interviewed a handful of people, out of 300 million. They also edited out all the right answers and left the dumbasses in the video. Believe me, we're not all like this. I actually plan to be a Geographer.

  • Wow! You have to be stupid to be leave this!

  • Interview 1,000 people. Pick 10 and make a country look stupid?

    Fantastic work... not.

  • Where the fuck do u find these dumb asses ...

  • What shit hole did you find these people in?

  • most of them are minorities. dont say thats racist, because its not. they usually live in areas where the education system is jank. come to an intelligent part of america, not the shittiest ghetto you can find

  • Kind of like asking people in France about landmarks in Korea.... It's the other side of the world, you know.

  • funny because im irish and my mom is american and i know fuckloadsmore then she ever will

  • HAHAHAHAAHHAH !!!!!!!111111

  • LOL... this is the effect of the budget cut in EDUCATION and GW,Bush`s NCLB (no child left behind policy)....

  • Are these Americans for real or are they taking the piss out of this Australian guy by pretending to be even more pig ignorant, stupid and amazingly as naive as they really are? What was that? They're NOT pretending at all - they really ARE that unaware and as incredibly ignorant of anywhere beyond their own front door? Now why does that not surprise me? Poor things - but maybe they're happy living in their own big bubble Stateside...as they say.

  • LMAO...China is a town outside Darwin...aww...ok...i didn't know that...what a retarded human being she is...

  • Hahaha Omg

  • Watching dumb people just makes me feel stupid!!!

  • This is very bitter sweet for me to see since I'm a american and I know were to find all of these places. Also i wanna make a point that when we have economy issues, like know, education is the first to be cut. So please, don't assume that were all like this )=

  • As an American watching this I can't help but laugh.

    And die a little on the inside.

    Europe here I come!

  • @UberShadow666 Australia is NOT in Europe! :D Stay put!

  • @rhov233 Damn!

  • @UberShadow666 lol!

  • @UberShadow666 You think the person going around with all those pictures is European much geographical education yes?

  • @andrew8833 Or I prefer europe over america?

    Beats me.

  • @UberShadow666 Why though you want to have a look at the laws of the European Union, The European Law of Human Rights is just stupid and pointless, the stuff us Brits are limited by sometimes it's annoying, basically means we have to give rights to the wrong kinds of people sometimes.

  • And then the part where he says "I guess that shows how much I know -not a whole lot". It makes sense to assume he said that after he was told Taj Mahal was not in India...I mean, it is impossible to be more biased trying to make Americans look like fools. If I were that guy, I would be furious seeing how I've been depicted in the video...after actually guessing the answers more or less right!

  • Many Americans are quite ignorant but this video is absolutely embarrasing...I mean, the guy at 0:14 seems to be just humouring the interviewer, maybe saying yes because he didn't want to look stupid on TV...I mean, I would like to see how some of you would react if a guy with a camera showed up and tried to convince you of something you believe to be wrong...but the guy did know where Pisa is...

  • Haha Great.....So thick!!!!!!!

  • OH SWEET JESUS PLEASE DON'T TELL ME THIS IS REAL!!?!?!?!?!

  • HAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHA DUMBASSES!!!!!!!!

  • Leaning tower of Pizza for the WIN!!

  • I'm ashamed to say I'm American...

  • @kurahns

    Im proud to say Im not lol (All good humor)

  • Oh gosh, americans, americans, americans lol

  • LMAO - Steve irwin used to live in the Taj mahal !! ahhaaa, im cracking up laughing!

  • We got a leaning tower in Illinois. We use it as a YMCA.

  • I'm not trying to be mean but they really don't understand much other than there own country. To them anyone that doesn't sound American is a "euro" which by the way is our currency not a nationality. And Im not talking about a select few I talk with atleast 50 Americans citizens a day southern and northern all between the ages 18 -45 . It's just weird that there own country can accept themselves being so oblivious to the rest of the world

  • I'm an American, and what he said, is it true or not?? I thought like the leaning towar of piza was in Italy... its in Australia...?

  • @hannavas11 This guy is taling the piss out of people who dont have a clue, no its in italy

  • @MrChaoscheese taling the piss out of people... that means..what? Ohh ok it's in Italy, so where's Big Ben...?

  • @hannavas11 I meant to say taking. Big Ben is in England

  • @MrChaoscheese Ohh ok, so what country are you from?

  • @hannavas11 I'm from Ireland

  • @MrChaoscheese OOoooo cool, so wat do u tihnk uf america? r we stupid, do u think?

  • @hannavas11 no actually i dont. I am pretty sure that they asked a lot more people but only found a couple of people who were stupid.So no i dont think that you are stupid. Its just sad that these people fit the perfect american stereotype.

  • @MrChaoscheese Ohhh ok, well thanks, because I was really getting tired of people thinking that ALL Americans are stupid. I wish everyone would see this the way you do. By the way, I lied, I know where the leaning tower of Pisa, and Big Ben is, I just wanted to see what you would say, if I, an American, acted stupid, SO sorry about doing that, but just wanted to see what you would say, but you are so nice and understanding.,, haha ok well yeah!

  • Thats a shame. Austrailia is one of the best countries in the world EVAR!

  • you know who 'the people most' stupid and ignorant of the earth? americans!! we believe the best but they are just scum!

  • Look at us, the gullible and extremely stupid Americans!

  • I'm American and this is so embarrassing. Half of the people I know are this retarded. Americans are content with knowing absolutely nothing outside of their own lives. I'm 18 and I am more educated than my own parents. The world is not laughing with us, they're laughing at us. We should get our sh** together before we blow ourselves up.

  • @AriesGoddess92 actually, these people filmed about 3 times more people, but they cut out the people who answered correctly for the sake of gaining interest

  • @AriesGoddess92 what made you think they were laughing with you?

  • @wellguesswhatIthink please re-read my comment.

  • @AriesGoddess92 too bad , but hopefully people like you would change the fate of your country !

  • @AriesGoddess92 - You're right when you say: " The world is not laughing WITH us, they're laughing AT us." _ And the reason they're laughing...is because so many don't seem to know much about the world we live in.

    And to quote Disney: "It's A Small World, after all. ` _*l.o.l.* ☻_

  • @AriesGoddess92 I have more respect for you now, sir!

  • @AriesGoddess92 No kidding, gee... by blood im not even American! >:D but... sadly I was born here instead of South Korea , Germany or even Italy T.T gee we need to get our minds in our heads before the world teams up with our enemies *cough* my allies*cough* and blow this country to bits.... even though I might like that o.o I would have to be out of the country first :D

  • @AriesGoddess92 The other half of american's don't even know where their own country is located on a globe. So not only don't they know about the world around, they also don't know where their fucking country is located.

  • @AriesGoddess92 Amen to that.

  • @AriesGoddess92 The good thing is that you are better educated than your parents - that's the goal everywhere! But you're so right... The amount of laughs I've had during my life time at the expense of Americans... Oh boy! Good times! I think the amount of laughs is going to die out soonish, because even the thickest American can't keep the level of ignorance up with the Internet and all... I hope.

  • @AriesGoddess92 well said.

  • oh my GOD.

    slowly but steadily 'idiocracy' is turning from a cheap comedy movie to a documentary about imminent human intellectual evolution.

  • 83 Yanks believed that the Great Wall of China was in Australia then they went to Australia because of it.

  • Its not even funny the american government isnt educating americans right so they dont know certain things

    in 40 years they are going to turn into retards

  • Lol europe a country what an idiot

  • europes a continent btw

  • @bluegama500

    this is why people believe americans are retarded

  • @madhurpatel

    LOL nice one, I had to laugh when I saw the other person's comment, too. ;-)

  • Steve Irwin lived in the Taj Mahal n there were crocodiiles in the front... whoever made that up is a LEGEND !!

  • @bluegama500. hahahaha. You actually stupid for thing EUROPE is a country... lol!!! tsk tsk tsk...

  • Most of their answers were correct. That being the case I would say they are gullible for listening to this Aussie bullshit.

  • Its not because they're american that their stupid. You can go to any place in the world and find stupid people!

  • @Bubblewrap990 Thank you.

    God, seriously, if you ever want to find the stupidest bunch of people, just go on YouTube. Did ANYONE notice that they didn't even use that many people and that, I don't know, that maybe they asked more of people, but a lot of them didn't buy that bullshit?

    Anyone who says "All Americans are stupid!" are dumber than us, likewise for people who say that they are ashamed of their entire country because of a simple YouTube video.

  • As George Carlin said "The world is one big freak show, and if you live in America you get a front row seat."

  • im sure one american that got quizzed here went to australia to see the great wall of china.....in australia......

  • Let's not start a debate here; there are idiots everywhere. It is just amazing how frequent it is in the USA, simply because of cultural tendencies... they feel no nececisty to look beyond. This doesn't deny stupidity like it or worse anywhere else in the world.

  • To Jordo F6 , Cmon man stop that bullshit.. You dont know what you talk about America isent the only country in the world just so you know. We dont care about your father or you or anyone else from America we just wonna have some fun laugh at you and twistaround on the floor. Crocos in the mini canal front of taj mahal , We go wrestling whit em hahahaha

  • I laughed through the whole clip:)

    (my stomach hurts from laughing too much)

  • @sergen292 You spoke my mind!

  • city of love?

    oh Paris?

    no Melbourne!XD

  • MAYBE, now im just thinking outside the box, the world is brainwashed to think Americans r being brainwashed into stupidity. maybe then it gives them more of a standstill as to the international decisions in the last little while that are now less controversial, or MAYBE they want us to think the decisions or as unethical as they are uneducated when really they are stokes of genius, which is why America is the most powerful country at this point in time. BRAIN BLAST

  • true! I have been working for 10 years In the US. Meet those people every day.. they never stop surprising you with their unintelligence...It is actually sad but true...

  • You do know that this show is a parody and that they only kept film of people who gave dumb answers or played along. But you guys just love stupid Americans, don't you?

  • it makes us look bad because they found the most stupid people on the streets. There are stupid people from every ethnicity, but that dosen't mean the majority of the population is also stupid, therefore this is no proof that americans are stupid.

  • By the way...America is a continet, not a country.

  • @mantiscosmica north america is a continent and south america is a continent -_-' but USA is also known as america

  • @FinesseShot America is te continent, south america, central america and north america are subcontinets. And Usa is known as america because they think that all is from them...

    Well, you showed that the people from UK are ignorant too

  • @mantiscosmica Its true I live this madness every day!

  • @mantiscosmica errrm no lol

  • @mantiscosmica The continents are learned differently in each country. They name 5 here in Germany and we name 7 back in the US. Germans ignore Antarctica as a continent and also lump the Americas together just as many European nations.

    We call the USA 'America' because it's the last word of our official country name, the 'United States of America'. If we didn't separate the continents, this would be redundant, but we don't so it isn't.

  • I actually feel sorry for Americans. Even when they were right, this guy managed to convince them not to trust their own knowledge. Shows you what effect the media has over them.

    Most telling of all was that none of them challenged him on Mount Rushmore! Almost America's most famous landmark and they believed him when he said it was in Brisbane!!!

    Talk about being brainwashed by your own country! It's not the people's fault, the media dumbs them down.

  • I love how some Americans on this page are offended by the questions these ''British'' reporters are asking!

    LMAO!!!!!!

  • I'm American and this is funny as hell! Another reason why I plan on getting the hell out of this uncultured country!

  • I really pity them. Pathetic.

  • Actually it's rather sad , just what are American children learning in their schools ?

  • OMG! That is so fucking sad! I guess stupid people live in Australia too!

  • This was absolutely hilarious. It's quite sad really. I felt for some of them, because they actually knew the landmarks, but they were quick to believe that they were wrong. All sympathy was gone, however, when they actually believed that Mt. Rushmore, with the faces of AMERICANS, was originally 'built' in Australia.

  • can they possibly be this stupid?

  • So many insecure Europeans commenting here

  • @WowVideosbyVessel Dude the guy made you believe that the face of mt rushmore were originally built in Australia; talking about insecure. a FRENCHMAN would cut his hand off to prove that the tower is in PARISs

  • @gulsie21 No guy made me believe anything, the fuck you talking about? Being misinformed is not the same as being insecure. HURRRRR

  • @WowVideosbyVessel Typical

  • @gulsie21 ohyou.jpg

  • I need to get out of here. Help me, please.

  • Australia. All these hate America videos. Australia you support antiamerican terrorist Wikileaks. You are Prochina and Antiamerica. You Australian pricks are the enemy. YOU ARE GOING TO HELL AUSTRALIA!

  • @herrhumbert  go wikileaks!

  • @herrhumbert Thanks for proving a point.

  • @herrhumbert keep it coming Wikileaks! expose the corrupt government of america, and its ignorant population!

  • Coud America get any stupider?

  • "It's from the city of love"

    " Paris...?"

    "No, Melbourne, Melbourne"

    That was the best. Melbourne is the city of love!

  • hhahahahahhahaha how stupid are american ahahaha THANK GOD I AM NOT AMERICAN!!. the only they know is MACDONALDS AHAHHAA I HATE THANK U STILL GIVING ME REASON HASTE AMERICANS\

  • @m41188 Oh cool what nationality are you?

  • isnt Italy like 500 years old?looooooool :)))))))))

  • oh my Gackt I LOVE THIS GUY HE IS MY PERSONAL HERO
