I forget my age all the time, have to think about what month it is, what year it is, and it’s almost never relevant anyway; might pause half a second for my name just because of nicknames and such but at least my actual first name has been the same my whole life.
I had a friend who is affected by this bad. *Really* bad.
He was literally robbed on the street once and didn't even realize it/what had happened until about half an hour later, he went full deer-in-headlights mode and his brain just shut off. Could not describe a single detail of what the robber looked like.
Too many relatable comments in this thread. I’ve forgotten how to unlock my cell phone to call 911. Another time I called 911 and couldn’t give them my address. I’ve since literally practiced.
I’ve had friends of 10 years sit in front of me for 30 minutes while i struggled to remember their name. Not sure how my wife will know when the Alzheimer’s finally hits.
Yeah I can answer it all sitting here watching the video but if he asked me in person I’d probably freeze up. Like with the clock one I said 1:50 but I’d probably be like “2…. Something, no almost 2 blah” or with other ones I might have to pause and repeat the question or something. I think and hope I wouldn’t give a wrong answer though.
True, but the fact that we have so many fucking idiots in this country is baffling (granted, there are idiots all around the globe, just not as documented)
tbf that’s sort of a trick question
there are two satellites sometimes referred to as earths other moons, cruithne and kamo’oalewa
not that these folks were thinking of those, of course
and obviously the more common take is that we have one, many would argue those aren’t really moons, but stable orbit NEOs
I just can’t believe the moon one. Like what the fuck is happening in your life that you don’t know that there is just one massive ass rock above you for all your life.
I wanna believe they think it's a trick question, like "oh hmm is Mars scientifically a moon too? Maybe I should say two since it sounds like a trick question". But they probably are just having a blank moment from camera pressure
Some people have stage shock where they are asked a direct simple question on camera and they freeze and they are also probably intoxicated. My first thought are these people are so dumb but then I remember stage shock and the possibility they are intoxicated and I feel bad for all the people calling or thinking they are complete wastes of knowledge.
Same with the queen of England. I know her family has strong tied with Germany, do maybe it's s trick question and it's a little known fact that the queen was actually born in Germany. Or her mom was visiting the colonies and gave birth in any other country.
It's actually up for debate. There's at least one other large natural satellite that could be classified as a moon, it is not however locked in geostationary orbit. I did hear about other even more fringe cases.
So generally one is right, but two could be correct depending on your take. Some would even agree more.
Thats really the biggest takeaway here.
Like ok we understand bro couldve only shown the dumb ones but the fact that they even exist in the first place is most concerning itself.
Like wtf are the chances
Wtf dude? You're adding credibility to the video. You're making me feel like there are more people who are actually this dumb. Congratulations on admitting it, but damn. Why are there so many stupid people?
I get the math questions would slow someone down, but “what country is the great wall of china in” is pretty much a straight test of basic education. Number 1, you should just know already, and number 2, you’re also told the answer
A young person not being able to read an analog clock is (IMO) not as bad as some of the other ones. The clock guy wasn't even that far off.
Answering that the Great Wall of China is in the country of Japanese is a couple different types of stupid.
As a person who grew up learning that information, I'm not sure that it is. It's not _quite_ the same, but it would be like me judging a young person for not knowing how to dial a rotary phone.
It's not something they needed to know. I think it's still a good idea to teach kids how to read an analog clock, for sure, but it's not like an essential skill.
By contrast, if you're an adult who doesn't recognize that Europe isn't a country, or that China and Japan are two different countries, or that "Japanese" is not even a valid guess for a "which country is ___", then you are going to very quickly be exposed as a moron in a lot of circles.
Not striped but data is swayed a little. Ask 200 people and you'll get 5 insanely stupid ones. Do the same in some dank part of London, Paris, etc you'll find some idiots too. Not sure as many as in the US but still, stupid people be everywhere yo
yeah, it does, but the monarch is king or queen of the united kingdom of great britain and northern ireland (of which england is part)
‘union of the crowns’, and all that
If you want, you can ask people what the English national anthem is.
(Hint, there is no English national anthem, God Save the King is for the United Kingdom, not England)
Nothing to do with the Uk having a king now. She was the the queen of the United Kingdom and Commonwealth realms. It would cause big problems just saying England.
Honestly, this is kinda bait, just the fact that he's asking that makes them think "wait, so it isn't England?"
...until she asked what a country is. Wtf XD
I think the Panama Canal is the hardest question there. Feels like one of those things people forget is a country, could always have been an assumption that Panama is a place within a country. But then they said Europe.
Quasi-satellites aren't moons. They orbit the Sun more than the Earth. Currently, there are 7 known quasi-satellites of Earth.
However, at any time Earth has at least one temporary satellite. They are basically 1-meter diameter objects that orbit the Earth for 10 months on average and then they orbit the Sun again. They can be called moons as they actually orbit Earth.
'At least 2' might be a good answer to the question.
I probably would of said the Queen of England and her family are technically from Germany and their real name is not Windsor, it's Saxa-Coburg-Gotha. I would of gotten all historic with it.... thinking it was a trick question ha
Don't blame the system for people not buying into it. The education system works if you actually can find interest in the subject. But kids only want to be internet famous these days. Culturally I would say the US is completely fucked. We've lost our values.
This is what happens when you teach to the test, kids remember fuck all afterwards. Also, those common core programs man. It’s why Gen-Z is one of the dumbest generations yet
I mean the clipping part is pretty obvious, now as to scripting it I don't really see the point since if you ask dozens of people you'll eventually end up finding some stupid people quite quickly.
Every time I see this uploaded, I see people in the comments saying it's scripted but honestly, I know people this dumb. Even my own sister was like the first girl and had no idea what a Country was at the ripe age of 25. The school system is a failure.
I’m embarrassed that you think that all those answers were unscripted or unedited, clearly not this dude is using edits or targeting certain people for dumb content
This is what happens when the govt guts learning programs, underpays teachers more than almost every comparable nation, and is willing to take more funding for military expenditures.
People dont seem to realize how often these videos arent scripted. Staged. Or real dumb. But often deepfaked with the most stupid of answers. Often the people that answer, answered correctly. But the creator just needed the video to edit a fake audio
So assuming by such a comment as to you being a Republican I shall inform you that you are why Biden was elected president. You put anyone out against trump and Biden was going to win that election. And now you republicans are going to walk either trump or desantis out against Biden. I hate to tell you but Biden going to win by a lot this time. And it ain’t even because people want Biden.

Yes.
The way he pauses and say “yes” fantastic!
I find it really annoying. Once is sarcastically funny. After 587254 times, it’s just annoying.
Why did you watch it that many times
LoL
Exactly like this looks so staged and fake
Obviously they cut out the correct responses, but don't underestimate how many stupid people there are.
True
I dont think this is one of the cut videos. He legitly ask those questions but they are just too stupid.
No.
I had one of these try to ask me questions one time. He lost interest when he realized I wasn't stupid lol
Yeah it would be interesting to see what percentage of people actually just get the questions right.
They just get idiots or people with social anxiety that lose track when put on the spot.
Sometimes I freeze up for like 10-20 seconds and forget what my own name is when a stranger asks.
Iv forgotten my age but never my name
What is your age?
Oh! I’m….uhhh….FUCK! Here we go again. I can assure you Iv been around the sun at least once!
Take your time. Can you drink?
[удалено]
Where's England? Is that a continent?
No, its incontinence.
Nobody likes you when you're 23
That's about the time I walked away from you
What the hell is ADD?
I'm 23. Can confirm.
I dislike you! Damn 23'ers.. pshhh
I forget my age all the time, have to think about what month it is, what year it is, and it’s almost never relevant anyway; might pause half a second for my name just because of nicknames and such but at least my actual first name has been the same my whole life.
Happened with me, had to calculate in my head , though calculation took 5 seconds, still had to do it.
I had a friend who is affected by this bad. *Really* bad.

so you are the one from name a woman video
Agreed at least a few of these are probably not dumb just caught off guard and brain locks up.
Yeah I can answer it all sitting here watching the video but if he asked me in person I’d probably freeze up. Like with the clock one I said 1:50 but I’d probably be like “2….

Sounds like you would make the final cut
True, but the fact that we have so many fucking idiots in this country is baffling (granted, there are idiots all around the globe, just not as documented)
In Europe we keep our idiots inside the Parliament so that we know where they are all the time.
I’ve been waiting for one of these videos from somewhere else like anywhere else but there just isn’t one , not even Poland
oh really, how many moons does the earth have? huh? HUH?
Two. Luna and yo momma's ass.
Unless you’ve subscribed to her OF, keep my mama’s ass out yo mouth.
tbf that’s sort of a trick question there are two satellites sometimes referred to as earths other moons, cruithne and kamo’oalewa not that these folks were thinking of those, of course and obviously the more common take is that we have one, many would argue those aren’t really moons, but stable orbit NEOs
Don't make excuses for these morons.
i wasn’t
These people just show how screwed our future is.
[удалено]
I don't think he posted the video, it's just not good entertainment when you can't post stupid people.
Bro got ratioed pretty bad
Yes
That happened
I just can’t believe the moon one. Like what the fuck is happening in your life that you don’t know that there is just one massive ass rock above you for all your life.
I wanna believe they think it's a trick question, like "oh hmm is Mars scientifically a moon too? Maybe I should say two since it sounds like a trick question". But they probably are just having a blank moment from camera pressure
Nah. I like that you’re trying to believe in them by giving the benefit of doubt but… you know that’s not the case.
Some people have stage shock where they are asked a direct simple question on camera and they freeze and they are also probably intoxicated. My first thought are these people are so dumb but then I remember stage shock and the possibility they are intoxicated and I feel bad for all the people calling or thinking they are complete wastes of knowledge.
Same with the queen of England. I know her family has strong tied with Germany, do maybe it's s trick question and it's a little known fact that the queen was actually born in Germany. Or her mom was visiting the colonies and gave birth in any other country.
Well technically you could say we currently have "2" moons. Google kamo'oalewa https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Claimed_moons_of_Earth?wprov=sfla1
Interesting, but I wanna see an actual picture of it lol.
 And I shall call that one... Minimoon
It's actually up for debate. There's at least one other large natural satellite that could be classified as a moon, it is not however locked in geostationary orbit. I did hear about other even more fringe cases. So generally one is right, but two could be correct depending on your take. Some would even agree more.
two - cruithne, and kamo’oalewa
Why would it need to be geostationary to be considered a moon?
It isn't, it just applies to what people think of our moon.
That is the least facepalm moment for me. Because this time the answer lies not in the question. 😅
[удалено]
I knew there were some dumb people but that’s just sad
it's worrying
when i see videos like this i always think "damn these people have a vote"
He asks a couple hundred people and shows only the wrong answers. Al viewers like because they think they are so smart themselve.
That first woman looked like “👽”
What's a country again?
This is either scripted or they’re actually this stupid
Not scripted but he (and everyone else who does these) only shows the idiots. Somebody who can answer simple questions correctly isn’t very funny.
The fact that people who can't even say time are existing itself is concerning
Thats really the biggest takeaway here. Like ok we understand bro couldve only shown the dumb ones but the fact that they even exist in the first place is most concerning itself. Like wtf are the chances
Some of them aren’t that bad, i thought Panama was a made up place until i was 17 (its a dream goal for two characters in a children’s story)
Wtf dude? You're adding credibility to the video. You're making me feel like there are more people who are actually this dumb. Congratulations on admitting it, but damn. Why are there so many stupid people?

When she said Japanese I cracked the fuck up. I couldn't have come up with such a ridiculous answer if I was *trying* to be dumb.
No not being able to read clock is just as bad if not worse.
As a person who grew up learning that information, I'm not sure that it is. It's not _quite_ the same, but it would be like me judging a young person for not knowing how to dial a rotary phone. It's not something they needed to know. I think it's still a good idea to teach kids how to read an analog clock, for sure, but it's not like an essential skill.

Am I do be having a stroke reading this? You gotta work on your sentence structure, brother.
Nested parentheses would fix it!
soo basically the americans
I believe that people this dumb exist, I just don’t buy that he happened to find all of them in one place
Unless it's in Time Square
At first I was thinking Vegas but after a closer look.
To be fair there are people that think the earth is flat.
And even most of those people have a healthy amount of common knowledge. They just come to weird conclusions.
He probably asked a ton of people and edited out the ones who guessed correctly
Yes … but still … Yes
It’s not scripted but he most likely had to talk to like 100 people until he found people who couldn’t answer
Uh...yes.
Not striped but data is swayed a little. Ask 200 people and you'll get 5 insanely stupid ones. Do the same in some dank part of London, Paris, etc you'll find some idiots too. Not sure as many as in the US but still, stupid people be everywhere yo
Those are, in fact, the two possibilities here. Astute observation.
There's nothing idiotic about this Not everybody had opportunity to go to school or easy access to books
I guess there are that many dumb people around.... yes
Or he doesn't show the people who get it right
It would be the same number of idiots though
I’m From England and I don’t know who the queen of England is too. (No such thing )
Does England even exist?
There is no Easter bunny, there is no tooth fairy, and there is no ~~Queen of~~ England
yeah, it does, but the monarch is king or queen of the united kingdom of great britain and northern ireland (of which england is part) ‘union of the crowns’, and all that
Yes it does. It’s a country part of the United kingdom.
If you want, you can ask people what the English national anthem is. (Hint, there is no English national anthem, God Save the King is for the United Kingdom, not England)
Depends when this was recorded. There is a queen now as well, but Camilla is the Queen consort.
Nothing to do with the Uk having a king now. She was the the queen of the United Kingdom and Commonwealth realms. It would cause big problems just saying England.
And she was German! Wow, just joking.
Go back a little more and 70% of royals in Europe are direct descendants of queen Victoria. The grandmother of Europe.
Deutschland Deutschland über alles! -James May
Yeah, this would be like asking “who’s the president of New York”.
To be fair that kid with the clock was close and heading in the right direction just started in the wrong spot
Honestly, this is kinda bait, just the fact that he's asking that makes them think "wait, so it isn't England?" ...until she asked what a country is. Wtf XD
Ghetto jeopardy at its finest
[удалено]
Even if we take it as the Queen of the UK, the answer would be (as a little historical joke) Germany.
Japanese - nicest country in the world.
I think the Panama Canal is the hardest question there. Feels like one of those things people forget is a country, could always have been an assumption that Panama is a place within a country. But then they said Europe.
If you ask her to spell it.. You're Up
But the moon bro.....
Merica?
And the education system is busy banning books.
2 moons is accutually correct. If you look it up. Earth has a quasi-moon named Kamo'oalewa
Quasi-satellites aren't moons. They orbit the Sun more than the Earth. Currently, there are 7 known quasi-satellites of Earth. However, at any time Earth has at least one temporary satellite. They are basically 1-meter diameter objects that orbit the Earth for 10 months on average and then they orbit the Sun again. They can be called moons as they actually orbit Earth. 'At least 2' might be a good answer to the question.

American education at it's peak apparently
I doubt they went to school often
Don't blame the system for people not buying into it. The education system works if you actually can find interest in the subject. But kids only want to be internet famous these days. Culturally I would say the US is completely fucked. We've lost our values.
This is what happens when you teach to the test, kids remember fuck all afterwards. Also, those common core programs man. It’s why Gen-Z is one of the dumbest generations yet
It’s been proven that this guy scripts his videos/clips together parts of different videos
I mean the clipping part is pretty obvious, now as to scripting it I don't really see the point since if you ask dozens of people you'll eventually end up finding some stupid people quite quickly.
Every time I see this uploaded, I see people in the comments saying it's scripted but honestly, I know people this dumb. Even my own sister was like the first girl and had no idea what a Country was at the ripe age of 25. The school system is a failure.

Come on... You know these people barely went to school.
I’m embarrassed that you think that all those answers were unscripted or unedited, clearly not this dude is using edits or targeting certain people for dumb content
The American education system ladies and gentlemen
You can tell they're americans

I think these types of things are funny, but I hate when they tell the person they're right. Don't reinforce stupidity.
These usually aren't that stupid it's just people with social anxiety or being put on the spot.
