1. I refuse to believe Americans are that stupid.

Surely, of all of the people interviewed, some answered the questions correctly. But correct answers aren't funny enough for TV, are they? :shrug:

2. Oh, what do you know? You're just a dumb American!

What state is Switzerland in anyway?

I've always wondered how many good responses they get when they do these questions on the street?

I also wonder if I were answering the questions if I would just make up dumb shit just to be on tv? "How many states are there in the US? Um, seven and a half?"

3. That video is from "the Chasers" an Aussie comedy show

They make fun of EVERYBODY....But no doubt that got some good responses that weren't funny so they didn't make the air. Don't worry they go around making sure Aussie's on the street look just as idiotic--its equal opportunity satire!
look them up on youtube..hilarious...
