Damn!
I didn't know the answers to any of those questions!
I wish I had been born somewhere better, like Britain.
not fair..! they're tricking dumb people!
"not fair..! they're tricking dumb people!"
With trick questions like "Who is Tony Blair?"
haha, and the guy was like, "uhh...skater?"
How do we know whether or not these interviews are fake?
Here's the UK version:

They were most likely real , BUT, while they are humorous, remember, the filmer doesn't show you the tapes of people who knew the answers because that isn't entertaining, or let the viewer feel superior. They don't tell you if they had to film 10, 20 or 50 people in order to get 1 who did poorly. Now suppose, they said that they had interviewed x number of people and y percentage knew or didn't know the answers, that information could tell you something, but it would not be as entertaining.
Remember the old commercials of a taste test using butter and margarine. A friend of mine tasted the samples and could tell the diference everytime. They did not use him in a comercial.
thats why i love tv...
someday i want to own a station and brainwash people too!!
there's a companion video of ignorant britons.
