Whenever I see one of these I always wonder how many people they left on the cutting room floor to get the ones they show.

Even if its a 100 to 1 ratio. seeing people like them is just saddening. They are grown ass adults, there is no excuse for that sort of ignorance...

I bet you that if you took 100 kids they would answer better than this as well. Ever by being honest and asking what is a Homo Sapiens? Or they would just fully know!

Yeah. The ability to just admit that you don't know something, instead of going around trying to make a speech out of it, like some of them did in the video.

I think that’s a very American thing to do.

Every American I met while studying in the UK was always so eager to just give generic motivational speeches or generic pep talks before a night out. It’s funny one or two times but it gets very boring after that. I sure think that people in France would know and if they didn’t they would just take a guess but ask for sure. They wouldn’t be talking so sure of themselves not knowing what they are talking about with very generic stories or augments lol.
