  • LOL, my Finnish 12-year old cousin knew the answers to all the questions, except for the "what is mosque" question. ^^

  • I'm crying -- and not from laughing.

  • I would just like to point out tht even though israel is technically Jewish it houses many reliogions (previos comment look below)

  • Give me the camera I'm 16 for christs sake n I know most of these this is what the main stream media n MTV have done to us Israel is Judiasm Muslim n christian people N Hiroshima n nagisaki is where we made a big crater using a very special weapon can u name that weapon (watch the military channel it's good n more entertaining)

  • This is hars, but fair. I know many Americans in the UK and they are pretty smart, your average level of intelligence. Whereas the average American you meet in America is, well, pretty stupid. So it's not Americans as such, it's when they live in the USA. Something about the television, newspapers, education system etc that makes them ignorant. Give them 3-months in civilisation and they can improve.

  • No "Offence" to the Americans.

  • and these people effectively run the world. scary

  • I love stereotypes. So now go around your country and ask questions like these to them about the world I'm sure you'll find a few dumbasses. They're everywhere, not just in America.

  • @zigzagvee true but theres more in america tho but dont blame the ppl blame the government

  • @jetsakul93 It's because we throw stupidity out to media and flash it out in the open. Just because they found a few idiotic people doesn't make us all idiots. Everyone has one thing in common in the world, we're human. We all have to throw a group of people/country under the bus and make ourselves seem innocent, we judge, we're all hypocrites.

  • @zigzagvee thtas the point your country is a brainwash for the society because its controlled and corrupt with freedom, amercan drweam and other bullshit but ppl dont seem the know because theyre already brainwashed its not there fault its because of the evil and sick son of a bitches that run the place and the world, the thing is that we cant do shit about it like carlin would say just watch the freakshow haha peace friend

  • To be honest don't judge Americans on this fucking video- it's a huge country, easy to find a few dumbass'. .. Americans are dumb tho...

  • fucking hell Americans piss me off.....dumb motherfuckers

  • axis of evil: California, New York, Florida...  watch out.

  • hahaha Yugoslavia xD

  • I'd be offended, but I'm more amused by the fact that they're only showing the people who got things incorrect. I knew every one of those answers. (born and raised in New York)

    To reiterate one of the other comments on this video, I don't where they found these idiots- I don't know ANYONE who couldn't tell me the religion of an Israeli or a BUDDHIST monk.

    Then again, I kinda feel like these people were all chosen for some reason... this wasn't random.

  • They didnt even spell New Zealand correctly. Plus those people are mainly from the south.

  • That's pretty terrible, but judging by the accents, at least 75% of the people questioned were southerners, which explains the responses.

  • wow, I have heard jokes about this but I never realised America was this bad, thank God I don't live there

  • @JAKEMCCARTHY100 I hope you're joking. You honestly believe this is accurate?

  • @xxalexisurgodxx well they're obviously American and some of those answers were really stupid

  • @JAKEMCCARTHY100 You believe that these were the only answers that were given?

    We're nothing like these idiots. How could we be in such a diverse country?

  • @xxalexisurgodxx i'm not genralising the whole of the USA, but the people on this video (and many other videos i've seen) just don't seem to know anything about the world around them, some of those answers were pretty bad

  • @JAKEMCCARTHY100 I'm not denying that the answers are bad. Just saying that people only make videos of the "American Idiots", if you will. Why would one make a video of a smart person? .__.

  • @xxalexisurgodxx Why would they make a video in the first place? Americans have a reputation of being idiots for this exact reason

  • @JAKEMCCARTHY100 Erm, the footage was initially taken by someone who works for some channel in the UK... Americans didn't make the video.

  • @xxalexisurgodxx You are completley wrong, this channel originated in Australia and played on the channel ABC TV (a service of the Australian Broadcasting Corporation). News in the UK is nothing like this :L

  • Comment removed

  • @JAKEMCCARTHY100 Excuse me, but I can't sit on the computer all day and argue with you about this. Sorry I didn't reply right away, but that was just unnecessary and rude.

    Alright, fine, I just assumed it was in the UK because the general stereotype is that you guys hate Americans. Sue me. So it was from Australia. But the point is that this was not made by an American.

  • @xxalexisurgodxx I don't hate americans, I just found this really funny ;)

    And a American probably would not make this program unless they really did not like the USA

  • @JAKEMCCARTHY100 Your other comment was removed. Want to tell me what it said?

    Yeah, it is funny. Stupid and funny. Just not accurate.

  • @JAKEMCCARTHY100 Never mind, it was just the unnecessary remark you made about me not replying right away.

  • @xxalexisurgodxx Yea when i went back on the video and looked on the comments I looked like a right dickhead posting that :L

    And i'vve heard in the US everyone thinks we have yellow teeth, drink tea all day and sound really posh, lol

  • @JAKEMCCARTHY100 It's fine, and this whole thing was a bit immature of me anyway.

    To tell you the truth, we know that there's a specific tea time, so no, most of us do not

  • @JAKEMCCARTHY100 think you "drink tea all day". Yeah, it's a joke that Britons have bad teeth, but I don't hear the word 'Englishman' or 'Scotsman" and think of bad teeth. And to tell you the truth,

  • @JAKEMCCARTHY100 I haven't met an American who doesn't love any kind of British accent. I know "British accent" is a very broad term, but they're all pretty nice-sounding. Posh = okay with me. ;]

  • @xxalexisurgodxx The thing is that is one of the rarest accents in Britain now :(

    And you probaby wouldn't be so sure after hearing the geordie or the Scottish accents ;)

  • @JAKEMCCARTHY100 Hm yeah Scottish accents are the exception, they are bit hard to understand. And I've heard that Geordie accents are kind of rough-sounding.

  • @xxalexisurgodxx Yea, look to the right and click on the 8th video result, they make a joke about that, it's not real tho :L

  • I don't know where they found these people. Americans are literally nothing like this.

  • This does not show stupidity but rather ignorance and inattention to detail! Most Americans are so wrapped up in their daily lives and chasing the materialistic dream. Even though we were taught these things in grammar school, we tend to forget things we do not use on a daily basis because they have no use in our daily lives. If it doesnt effect us or our families or friends personally, its not worth learning about. It is funny, in a way, but its also sad too! We should be the most educated!

  • They got a lot of clips of Correct answers too, they just don't show them cause they are funny.

  • No offense taken, Americans are fuckin stupid. I'm American but I atleast have enough common knowledge to not make my country look like a fuckin fool!

  • @WadeStoker92 lol i can't say the same about a whooooooole lot of ya .. loool

  • I suddenly feel these people weren't chosen randomly...

  • Dear God! Someone get these people a text book I'm afraid they're going to die! I'm American and I may be in all honors classes, but come on you don't have to be a super genius to get these answers right! They're so easy!

  • wow those people are retards(im american)... i knew the answer to all thoses questions

  • omg this is too sad...how old is this video? lol. how do you get three world wars as an answer? haha. ten eiffel towers?! what was that guy smoking? lol got to love america :P

  • thats not being stupid,stupid would be to have a low IQ ,this is obviously lack of knowledge which is the goverments fault and if you guys cant see that then you are the stupid ones with closed minds. and you propably know almost nothing to what you should know.. cause they want you to be like that. im not saying i know everything but i try, and so should you and try to expirience things for yourself not just wait in a chair and be told what to do and living through other poeple experiences. :)

  • They just seem to target the older crowd...

  • @b8mb8 well you are clearly blind when you saw this vid .. lol .. there are a lot of youngsters. and let's pretend there are only older crowd, i thought you learn more as you get in life .. loooool ... but may be the american way of thinking is special as the whole lots of ya .. lol

  • The crazy thing is that most of the people in this video are adults, sounds like they have to go back to school!!!

  • I'm from New Zealand (dunno where that is? I'm not surprised xD) and I knew most of this stuff :D

  • And besides, Americans would'nt think United States of America because we commonly refer to us as America so it doesnt pop into our heads as fast :P

  • OMG I KNOW ALL THAT STUFF

  • those people will be an excellent choice for the US army ,  dumb as fuck and they will do their job without asking ^_^

  • I'm a 13 year old girl, I knew most of these . Just because these stupid people didn't doesn't mean everyone in america is stupid.

  • This is set up I'm a 15 y/o American I know hirosima and nagisagi or however you spell it were a-bombed by us to end the 2/2 world wars. There is no main religion of isreal, it's mainly a mix of Jews and Muslims. We would attack Iran because they have nuclear weapons. Cut it out with the dumb american stereotype and find some actual Americans with a brain next time :P those guys were just idiots.

  • @epsguy23 lol you're just as stupid as the people in the video. *Hiroshima *Nagasaki *Israel.

    Are you going to invade Britain, Germany, Italy and France too? They also have nuclear weapons, you know.

  • @filipe30 I was rushing to type that on my iPod. I don't speak Japanese so don't expect me to spell them okay? :P All the people above are in NATO with us. We are allies. Iran has been threatening us if you have been keeping up :P when Israel threatened to attack Iran's nuclear facilities Iran said that any attack on them would be blamed directly on us and they would retaliate. Quit being such a bigot and go take your inane stereotypes somewhere else.

  • People shut the fuck up im American assholes

  • @MrBeastman208 dumb fuck

  • @MrBeastman208 If you're not as dumb as the people in the vid, then u have no reason to complain.

  • ok this has got to be staged -_- there is no way

  • WWWHHHHHAAAATTTTT......

  • These people are a fucking waste of oxygen!

  • FUCKING IDIOTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • All these people are wasting hot dogs in America and space on Earth. These people should not be put on any organ donor list.

  • ....... Americans, Retarded hypocrites.

  • im american and i know most of this stuff,those people dont know anything...

  • Omg wow! These people are making Americans look soo stupid! Seriously all American are defiantly Not that dumb. I'm American and I'm only 15 and I basically knew almost all of these answers!

  • im 11, thick, from Britain and got most of the answers and these people are in their later life :L

  • Journalism Tricks 101: You spend a week or so interviewing a bunch of people, go back to the edit room. Take all the on camera dumb answers and follow them with other answers that may not have been from the same question. Once you sign a release form, you are fair game for them to use the footage however they like. I'm not saying those people weren't complete morons, but I'm sure a lot of people got them right too. A video was made like this about all Australians being racists.

  • They all pointed on Australia ? LOL like seriously their Geography are total fail. I mean maybe it's time for them to be open minded with other culture & stop being closed minded, start from now ;)

  • I love americans they are funny comedy gold dumb as a box of rocks.

  • Hell no all Americans aren't dumb!! Yeah there are some dumb Americans, but aren't there dumb people in every country? Yeah.... who ever made this is obviously one of the dumb people in England.

  • @Livecr7 The people making this video aren't English, they're Australian. Your comment turned out to be pretty dumb too haha

  • @Livecr7 LOL how dumb are you be quiet stop embarrassing yourself.

  • How come this old American man doesn't know about Hiroshima and Nagasaki!???

  • How many sides on a triangle? 4 Answer 3

    Name a country that starts with U? i dont know. Answer united states of america

  • Right first thing I am British. Second thing stop acting hard whoever made this . Third thing u can't spell so u no better. Fourth I hope u learn to stop skirting people for it comes down to bullying and lastly if it wasn't for the 'stupid Americans ' u wud be a fckin nazi for we would have lost the world wars. Grow up u probs only like 10

  • Yeah most people in america are like that, but im not.

  • You obviously asked the wrong people. We could easily do the same for England

  • Hey you stereotypical, big ego pieces of shit. Half of those people you asked were hobos or mentally ill (the old guy was probably a pissed off veteran with ptsd). I know what you did. You took the stupidest answers to try to make america look bad. Well why don't you do the same for your own people and choose the funniest, most insane answers out there. You won't though because americans are so stupid and you're so freakin smart, right? Well wake up and notice the rest of the world doesn't care

  • @steazycheaz Dude, calm down. It's the truth that the average of America is most likely to be idiots. If you compare our country's intelligence to other countries, we would be in the bottom.

  • How the fuck did they not know that shit? I'm a 14 year old American and I knew ALL of that! :\

  • @Ratrat124 me too! And IM 13!

  • HA HA HA... IT'S FUCKEN TRUTH!!! I KNOW A GREAT MANY AMERICANS, WHICH CALL THEMSELVES CATHOLICS, BUT NEVER READ CATECHISM OF R.C.CH. AND BELIEVE IN KARMA AND SHINTO :DDDD

  • @sakoupa you do know you can be a religion but not read there stuff, right?

  • I'm an American and these people are fucking stupid. If I'm in highschool and know the answers, then these people need serious education.

  • WTF, putting Australia as North Korea. Sorry but the average American is an idiot. I'm actually frightened your a world power, even more that you pour the most GDP into education in the entire world

  • I'm pretty pissed you pointed to Australia and called it Iran.

  • gringos = ignorants

  • @CosmicDialect & yet no proof over what you are talking about how sad can one be lol

  • @CrlMos im mad that monster hunter 3rd hasn't been released outside of japan

  • well good video editing. the jackasses who made this probably interviewed hundreds of people and edited out people with decent IQ's

  • @CrlMos No, i was actually making fun of people that believe this video. I found some videos like this but in Britain and Germany. I actually recognized a few places in that video and some of those places are known for drug addicts, homeless people and crazy people. If they want to portray us as racists just send a reporter to the deep south.

  • Of course, a country with over 300 million people must also have their share of stupid people - like the rest of the world.

  • Someone should go to Britain, interview a bunch of people and make a compilation of all the ones with bad teeth. After watching it I'm pretty sure us stupid Americans would believe that all British people have bad teeth. Stupid people believe everything they are told.

  • People can be so dumb XD well, now people can watch this video then feel good about themselves, I guess

  • @0:25 lol idea spelled wrong. And @0:30 New Zealand spelled wrong too. The editors of this video must not be very smart. How ironic.

  • 1:03 Ok i can forgive her at least

  • I love how most of them are so serious about the answers

  • They were paid to act stupid, never believe TV. Just saying

  • Canada!

  • I was offended until I realized how stupid some Americans seriously are...there went all faith in the US.

  • im american and noice how they are only interviewing rednecks and people that live in the ghetto:/ BTW Star Wars was actually based off the fall of the roman empire exept with lighsabers and shit

  • 3:52 pissed me off.That's were Im from.Fucking retards.

  • 1:37 XD now that shit was funny

  • seriously! these people are so dumb!

  • I answered every single answer right. Wtf is wrong with these people...

  • There are idiots in every country, not just the US.

  • haha I'm American and this IS TRUE. so many dumbass people over here....Don't get mad they are just stating the facts.

  • Moreover, many of us stupid Americans are doing all we can to prevent an attack on YOUR country...how about making some videos of that?? It's one thing to attack policies & politicians...but to attack average people in a park or on the street or whatever because they don't know geography and history well? So amazingly juvenile and lame...

  • "No offense to Americans..." Uh, no offense to you, but you know that there are more than 300 million of us and by showing a few people with poor knowledge of history to prove a point actually makes YOU look a little dense. Also, isn't it then all the more embarrassing that other countries kowtow to the US? This video is lowbrow nonsense...shame on you...

  • Axis of evil = USA and NATO and my country is a part of it ... Mostly they invade and attack other countries.

  • ignorance and those that mock others are found everywhere. Tolerance and unconditional love are harder to find. I wonder if the interviewer could give a description on a "raised level of consciousness". But then, if he had it, he wouldn't have mocked those who were interviewed. Peace.

  • 0:57 doesnt count hes mexican

  • Somebody can just as easy find a bunch of Britons or Australians who are just as ignorant

  • I face palmed so many times during this video.

    I think I have a concussion.

  • Well, I thought I didnt care, that people were stupid in this country. I was over it, in fact. But now its time to go back to hating my neighbors again.

  • @DarkNinja1223 or loving them regardless, none of us are perfect. Peace

  • Being an American, I can say this is saddening to see. I read the title and was slightly offended, but after watching I am amazed. I can only say that not all Americans are this stupid. It's almost if they found the stupidest people in the USA.

  • Fidel Castro was the Dictator of Cuba-Triangle 3-the UK uses the pound-the US should invade no one else until the economy improves we should be like Switzerland-Kofi Annan is a Ghanaian diplomat-Tony Blair was prime minster of the UK-axis of evil comprising Iraq, Iran and North Korea-Neil Armstrong was the first man on the moon-Mosque is a muslims place of worship-I have 2 kidneys-collateral damage is unforeseeable human loss-world wars one and two-KFC Kentucky-Starwars is fiction

  • United States, United Kingdom, United Arab Emirates, Uzbekistan-Coalition of the willing include Afghanistan, Albania, Australia, Azerbaijan, Bulgaria, Colombia, the Czech Republic, Denmark, El Salvador, Eritrea, Estonia, Ethiopia, Georgia, Hungary, Italy, Japan, South Korea, Latvia, Lithuania, Macedonia, the Netherlands, Nicaragua, the Philippines, Poland, Romania, Slovakia, Spain, Turkey, United Kingdom and Uzbekistan-Israelis=Judaism-Bu­ddhist Monks are Buddhist-Vietnam won the Vietnam war

  • Those people must live under rocks. Those where easy questions, just retarded people that's all. FACEPALM

  • Dude those people where mental man. It must of taken that dude one week to find all these dumbasses, just so he can make us seem stupid, who saved you british asses back in ww2 we did mother fu. Don't forget it.

  • @kraddark3 God i don't no were to start are you thick as you sound? THEY ARE NOT BRITISH THEY ARE AUSTRALIAN!! second you were not alive back in ww2? right so you "saved" nobody don't take credit for something you did nothing to achive. Attitudes like yours is why alot of people around the world have a distaste for alot of americans millions died in ww2 and people like you who think america take 100% of the credit is sickening

  • Do you people really think this is a true cross-section of Americans? They should have asked how many of these dummies voted for Obama. I bet all of them did. However a lot of us didn't. This was a pick and choose video. It probably took them a long time to find these five uninformed people and make their little video.

  • *facepalm* AMERICAAA

  • lol i do know american scientists tho and they are smart

  • This is why they laugh at us. I laughed but it was so sad. No wonder the NDAA passed. With people this dumb, it'll be easy to install a dictatorship.

  • This guy interviewed some dumb people. 

  • I Can't Believe these clowns put a man on the moon.

  • *facepalm* THEY DONʻT EVEN KNOW THE SIDES OF A TRIANGLE!!! How retarded can we be America? I'm ashamed.

  • Comment removed

  • wtf.....im American and im pretty sure these people were bred in caves and released on the population because no one is THAT dense.......seriously...

  • @AngelinaMaria232 Actually, welcome to the result of the US education system...we've been programed to behave a certain way and knowing much about the world isn't necessary for that...it's not their fault...

  • This just can't be serious? 

  • lol they obviously took a collection of stupid answers only and cut out the people who got them right. either that or they paid the people in the video. plenty of Americans could answer these questions.

  • @sugarladyhoney there are only half a dozen people who actually answer and they must have asked a lot more.

    Btw it's not unusual that people don't find much on a map, my grandparents barely found europe and america, but japan or afghanistan were a big riddle for them

  • @Kadda1234 I know, but honestly. Not knowing what a triangle is? That's ridiculous.

  • @sugarladyhoney Why the fuck would Americans pay they're population to be stupid? Makes no sense. By the way, you can do the same research in you're city, and be suprised.

  • @gazzxr lol. first of all the video is not made by Americans so America wouldn't be paying their population to be stupid. And yeah the geography will probably be bad, but it isn't as bad as the "Buddhist Monks" or "triangle" questions.

  • @gazzxr

    their and your not they're and you're

  • @boowallie Thanks for corection!

  • I just wanna say that they obviously chose the people that look stupid, i know kids 10 times smarter then them and yes the kids are in america

  • Americans don't know geography outside of the U.S. because it's irrelevant, the only thing that matters is what's in our country. If you're canadian, australian, british, etc. all you're useful for is a few troops when we need to invade a country, and even then you're pretty useless, we have to do all the heavy lifting. You can thank us for keeping law & order in the world, and you're welcome.

  • @boowallie You give us Americans a bad name, that exact kind of attitude is what makes other countries think we're idiotic as hell AND arrogant. YOU be thankful that they're helping our asses.

  • This is sad, i'm 15 and live in the U.S and I know most if not all the answers to these questions...glad to see the american educational system is doing well.

  • My fellow Americans, PLEASE put down your electronic devices and pick up a BOOK!

    I know I'm going to get hell for this but, I have been to both public & private schools in the US & I can honestly plead: TEACHERS, PLEASE TEACH THE CHILDREN!!!

    TAKE AN INTEREST!!!

    Thank you.

  • LOL a mosque is an animal he said haha

  • Wow.. These people really make it hard to defend the country where I live... I mean sure there are some really stupid people, but that us everywhere not just the u.s

  • where did you find these guys 0.o

  • I'm kind of offended by this video. Not everyone in America is fat and uneducated. I'm American and I know alot of people that would get those questions right.

  • I'm American and I wish there was a facepalm emoticon.

  • Of course this is in the south....

  • theres been 5 world wars

  • I'm from america and I'm slightly offended by this. I'm very well educated on other countries and cultures. They obviously picked the most ignorant and idiotic people they could find. People shouldn't just assume all Americans are stupid and fat. It's quite mean and offensive. If you believe the then you obviously have no idea about what America is truly like and it seems the you are stupid and uneducated about that.

  • Comment removed

  • I think the rest of the world i just butthurt that America is the sole world superpower.....yeah....i would be angry too...

  • @andrewm153351 ...China.

  • @xXDaemynDisasterXx

    China GDP- $5.8 trillion

    US GDP- $15 trillion.

    Also, china uses American dollars for reserves, which basically means we control their entire monetary system.

  • @andrewm153351 China also sells their kids to pay for online gaming...

  • @andrewm153351 Wrong person.. That was suppose to be @xXDaemynDisasterXx

  • notice how EVERYONE in this fucking video either has a southern or ghetto accent!!! not everyone in America acts like this. there are some pretty smart people here

  • Damnit they went to the south!!!!

  • i woulda liked seeing if they can place the US on a map...it's come to that

  • woooww lmaoooo omg dfkm this killed me these ppl are just fucking stupid and they wonder why the rest of the world thinks there stupid omg hahahhaha stupid americans

  • This is just sad!
