Guys, obviously the interviewer edited out all the people who answered correctly. For each dumbass that thought it was August 16th or something, there were at least 200 people who answered correctly.

We have another one, here!
Yes, we realise it was edited - but not that heavily edited. 200? Give us a break.
The point is, it's kinda scary that these people even exist.

lol.. of course the percentage is relevant when you title the thread "Americans ignorant when questioned about 9/11". Especially in a nation of over 300 million.maffiaw wrote:

Walk through the streets of any country with a video camera and ask people really obvious questions. I guarantee that you will find many morons in a short amount of time. I do not understand why these videos are considered funny by Europeans. Don't the "Lets make fun of Americans" jokes get old? Mabe the first video on this topic was funny, but after that it is almost like they're trying to prove a point...

Many of them must be from LA.
I know. I live there.

Ok. I'm sure you see the point I was making.maffiaw wrote:

lol shows how easy it is to manipulate people. if they dont even know what happened in their own country, how are they supposed to know where Iraq is or why we went there.Yaocelotl wrote:

Firth actually only targets Americans. He lives in the USA now.
Whoa... Can't believe these forums are still kicking.
I've seen a vid clip o back OP's statement. And to think that the most powerful country in the world could have retards like this in their armed forces? No wonder they shoot at British vehicles.

New York is another saying for New York City.

Yeah the chasers war on everything, funny stuff.
Can't beat comedy based on good old fashioned stupid people... I would almost certainly guarantee they weren't paid, the ABC has no cash as someone else stated, of course they interviewed a fair few people that weren't shown. Also, don't forget people get flustered and say stupid things when they have a camera pointed at them.
And to those getting upset - it's satire, relax - when you're the most powerful nation in the world you will be subject to this sort of stuff from time to time. If it makes you feel better why not tell us to "throw another shrimp on the barbie"
What the hell is a shrimp anyway? They're PRAWNS.

Let me speak for 99.1% of Americans and say, (if it wasn’t staged) those people are the stupidest people to grace the country since the caveman.
I agree they look stupid, but if you film someone who isn't used to it and who isn't prepared to be filmed, you can make this person do or say almost whatever you want. Plus the tone, the voice's inflections and the formulation of the questions are meant to bring these persons to say stupid things. This is not staged, but this is not fair for these people.
an "Americans are stupid" thread, how original.
im used to people not liking this country because we have things they dont, and when your country runs the world you have to expect people to *TRY* and take shots like this......if it makes the foreigners feel more elite, have at it guys. it just makes me laugh that you people are so obsessed with this country, then try to play it off as hatred. GG foreigners!
