Found this clip while looking around. Pretty funny. Shows the stupidly of some Americans as well.

http://www.shoutfile.com/v/gsfsscpr/why_people_believe_americans_are_stupid

Still I can't believe some of them can't even answer a simple question. A triangle has no sides!! WTH :banghead:

Lol some Americans can't answer simple questions? That's a stupid statement. Lots of people can't answer simple questions. Your nationality doesn't really walk hand in hand with your intelligence and intellectual prowess. :roll:

I didn't watch it cos Youtube redflags the IS guys, letting them know I'm browsing the internet. :(

EDIT: Oh BTW, you said 'shows some of their stupidly as well'. You mean't 'shows some of their stupidity as well.'

I am not saying that all Americans are stupid. I am saying the ones in the video are and pretty ignorant of the world around them. I can understand them not knowing how John Howard look like.

But saying Star Wars is a true story and not knowing England's currency (pounds) is just stupid IMO.

BTW I'm From Australia and English is not my first Language. It is also a comedy clip and it is not meant take itself seriously.

I don't get what's funny though. How are Americans more likely to say something like that than a European? They aren't. :roll:

Okay: I saw a hispanic chick sit there going 'ummmmmm uhhhh' after being asked what keeps us from floating out to space. You know, the force that makes a flying object come back to the ground?

Gravity??????

This was in Highschool.

Nah the reason people think Americans are stupid is because they see videos like this and say "Hey look! Every single American is stupid just like these retards!"

Seriously, I'm American and the people on this video are grade A morons.

Not really true though,for example not every Dutch person likes cheese milk and tulips.

The same goes for Afro-americans,not every one likes hip-hop.

I liked the video, but i think it's a little generalizing. :)

it's a funny clip, although everything has to be taken with a bit of salt. Americans aren't any more retarded then others, well the youth are more immature then european kids, but nvm that now..in some schools they don't teach history, if they teach history its about american history, same with geographics.

If the questions would've been about states in the us I bet they would've been more sharp.

We learn World History in the USA. And the geography of the entire planet. Why would they teach us only the layout of Northern America or something like that. Think about what you say. :?

I think Turkish youth are more immature than American youth...

......not that American youth aren't god damn immature.

Pretty sad you can generalize a whole country like that. It's not hard to find it for any country

Just google: Proof <insert county> are stupid.

Example:

French:
(Question is what revolves around the earth)
http://video.google.com/videoplay?foo=x ... 8114425938

Mexicans:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Ms_RumxwAo

I'm not trying to bash on more people I'm just saying EVERY country has dumb people :D[/b]

Vast majority of youth (period) is stupid and immature. The difference is more american kids have access/regularly use to the internet.
