see that statement i can understand because in the american school system most of the time geography is just put into history classes and isn’t its own separate class

I simply REFUSE to believe these people weren’t paid to come up with the most outlandish answers to these questions. Like we Gen-Z can be stupid but we can’t be THAT stupid
I'm a Social Studies teacher (Yes, I'm an adult watching this channel, that's the proof of my intelligence), while watching this video I feel the urgency to ask these questions to my students. I NEED to know if they are like this. Thanks Dylan, you just helped me with my lesson plan for next week. UPDATE: I asked the questions to one of my 10th grade classes. I'm happy to report that they did excellently. Only some of them struggled remembering who fought in the civil war. And knowing how many presidents we've had (I added more questions from other videos of that channel). Maybe it's because it's a private school, but I'll take that win.
You should come back and edit this comment when you know if your students are more intelligent or not. I wanna know if there is hope for humanity or not.
Tbh I don't think that our gen is stupid in the comparison to others. It's more like, our stupid individuals are out there on the *internet* where everybody can see them. But stupid people from other generations weren't under the spotlight of internet, prob people saw one stupid person and thought: oh he is just stupid and special in the bad way, but didn't think: omg their whole generation is degenerates
I think he just compiled only the bad answers after spending a day asking people stuff. Still bad, but I'm sure plenty of people got the questions right, too, they just didn't make the cut.
@@erisnixx7404 it’s very hard to believe that people don’t know very simple things like naming 3 countries or knowing what continent they live on. i’m dumb asf when it comes to this stuff but cmon.it’s incredibly unrealistic. also it seems like he’s at a pride parade or something given the people wearing rainbow flags/lesbian shirts etc so i wouldn’t be surprised if he’s trying to press the narrative (or just get more of a reaction out of people who knows) that along with gen z the lgbtq community is stupid 🤷🏽♂️ very common thing a lot of creators like to do
As a European Gen-z seeing this it hurts. I admit, I'm not that good at math, but I'm certainly not that bad. I'm glad I could still give all the answers to these questions.. and even the rest of my school luckily too.
bruh european gen z here too I am terrible at math and I am still embarrassed for them HOW How is it that me a european can that was a bearly c student knows how many states there are and Americans don't whot that is basic of basic of basics
New editor Joe, you did an outstanding job 👏 This video was edited to perfection. And while I always love Dylan roasting himself on screen, the addition of someone else also subtly roasting him via edit really elevates the content to a new level for me. I rate this video 7/3 continents.
As a French person, I'm OFFENDED that I had to learn how many states there are in the USA when your Gen Z don't even know the capital of their own country. I'm dying 🤣🤣🤣
I'm a French person too, and weirdly, we have to learn how many states there is in United States, but we don't even know how many regions there is in France
I live in the U.S. and I promise you that these people are not indicative of an entire generation, I’m 22, and have known many people around my age that are much more informed about America.
As one apart of Gen Z who knew the answer to all the questions, I felt an indescribable swell of shame in my chest watching this. Society has failed once more
@@violetsanddragons yes they literally only show the bad ones, also some of them are under the influence of something lol and alot of these kids are anxious about being asked questions
Can we take a moment to appreciate Joe's editing? That was a comedic masterpiece all on its own. Dylan was alright too; I guess. I mean he was there so... alright, bye.
I personally find this new editing way too over the top! I feel like Dylan is so funny on his own that he doesn't need all the over-editing to make him funnier
@@kfish6347 He definitely is! His videos are still very funny without all the editing, I agree. But I found myself so amused with this one and that was mainly because Joe amplified and added to Dylan's already funny persona. So he deserved some recognition as well imo. Great succes!
Yeah, not only England calls it football… the rest of the world does too. America is the only one that doesn’t call it football, they are the odd ones out.
I think one thing to consider when watching these videos is that the creator has the intention to make gen Z (or the group of people they are interviewing) look bad. That being said, they can just pick and choose the people who answered the questions incorrectly but not those who answered it correctly.
@@vanhoumin they edit their answars, so many cuts is a bit sus. they ask a different question like 3x3x4 people answer 36 and then they edit in a different question so they look stupid.
@@thzkimoton7932 yea it was kinda weird so many ppl said 36 so I'm sure they must have asked another question? Also everyone mentioning the president when being asked about the civil war was kinda sus
Yeah I'm sure if they included every person who answered, there would be a lot more correct ones, that the incorrect ones wouldn't seem as significant.
American here. I helped a friend by watching her son after school until she got home, and, yeah, I was pretty concerned about schools today. His friends just shared answers with each other on their papers and the teachers didn't care. Not sure how you retain anything that you don't have to strive for. Also worked with the teens in our church youth group who were unintentionally hilarious. Few understand analog clocks or have the months memorized. Scary.
as someone who graduated high school 2 years ago, i am physically pained by this video and refuse to believe they weren't paid to get every question wrong. that, or they just didn't include anyone who got the answers right
I live in Canada & graduated about 18 years ago & got them all right. I'm kind of thinking they may have just not included all the ones that got the questions right
I'm always cautious to believe some of these quiz in the street vids because some of them are edited intentionally to make them look stupid - cutting in answers for other questions. However that being said, I learnt more general knowledge after I left school. High school absolutely failed this generation because it hasn't changed or adapted its ways of teaching. A one size fits all doesn't work. Also love your vids, Dylan 🥰
As an asian and as a gen z, this hurts so much watching. In most asian cultures, there is a subtle competition of who is the smartest and the pressure of learning a lot in school as to not be seen as "dumb" or "stupid" by your fellow classmates or batchmates. Like Im not an american ofc, but some of these are very simple questions that should even be considered as "common" knowledge. Thank you Dylan for this video, know that you are smart, and that I hope this video enlightens other people.
Fellow gen z asian here (why does introducing yourself like this just feel ridiculous and awkward lol) I agree this exist and I partly hate it. Sure we aren't lacking in common knowledge at least but there's this superiority and condescending behavior that comes with this and that sucks. I don't like cringing at people who don't know things, because that's an easy fix (especially if they're willing), just teach them. Problem solved! We also have to be aware that the video Dylan's watching is edited and they probably filtered out all the people with the right answer in order to make a point out of, what, 4 to 5 people? So yeah.
@@GreySeashell-j3m Good point tho yeah, makes sense that they would filter out the people who answered correctly cuz ofc, the people who get it wrong makes it more content-worthy or click-baity idk. And I also agree that we should just teach people if they happen to not know instead of looking down or making them feel less (which I really dont understand why the previous generations do that to us wtf)
@@Tisbilly hmmm I see, but in your country, the competition is more on wealth I would say, and popularity. Correct me if Im wrong, but this is just an observation. Nothing really wrong with that, its just that it is different from other countries.
as an indian gen z this hurts my eyes because we were taught all this literally at 5 years old, even most of the questions related to the US 😭 now i feel like what we're learning in secondary school is way beyond what high school students in the US learn
They were probably taught this at the age of 5 too. The difference is they didn't care about class because that went against everything for their rebellion for "individuality".
I try to make myself feel better thinking he interviewed multiple people, who knew the answers, but only showed the cringe clips. I have to believe that. I. Have. To.
When he asked how old she would be if she was born 10 years ago, and I can’t explain why, but stupid me actually had hope they would answer it right. Then she shattered my (relatively small) confidence in humanity instead
Dylan trying to explain the 60m/h question gave me traumatic flashbacks to when my dad would try to teach me math and would just repeat himself until he was yelling and I was crying lmfao
@@estherkamara6722 I mean you can't take him at his word, plus look at the video and all the video cuts and that some of the people give similar answers like mentioning the president and history.
@@estherkamara6722 Yes, because an “influencer” on TikTok whose livelihood depends on people watching these videos would openly tell people they’re fake… /s
storytime: when i was in middle school - to pretty much graduating highschool, i was extremely, extremely depressed. i lost my parents and missed out on a TON of school and my teachers pretty much just looked the other way because I'd miss school and honestly tell them I was too sad to come. anyway - this resulted in me missing out on a ton of 'common knowledge' classes like geography, history etc and I was always so embarrassed because I felt like I was behind everyone and that I was secretly the dumbest person in the room but listening to videos like these... these are all genuinely common knowledge things. like these are things you learn just by being a human and interacting with at least somewhat smart and knowledgeable people. forget textbooks, if you read, AT ALL, you'll come across most if not all of this info. obviously, the bar is extremely low, but I haven't heard a single question that I couldn't answer in this video. so clearly, not all about school lol
I love u for this, like fr these are the most basic questions you know from life. Even for me who is not american and didn't learn abt all the states and stuffin school ( I am from europe, i know suprise suprise) + I've never felt like a "smart" kid in school, let say I was regular yk and still got 95% questions right :-)
It's really not all about school! Even if you watch any movies or shows at all you would know most of these. I'm European so I don't really have to know the answers to the questions geared towards Americans, and I still know most of them. It's really not that hard, please 😭
@@jellynellye well it could be better , always, but at least we know where Utah is ! We know Chicago is a city , we know what language people from Idaho speak , how many states there are in the USA , how many seasons there are , minutes in a half hour , continents and lots more the 3 countries …we even know what D.C means ! Frankly it is shameful to even criticize someone who speaks the truth just cause you are butt hurt by the stupidity of your people’s youth !
as someone attending a community college... they do have graduations, but i promise you a lot of people act like this. really sadly, they don't know seemingly basic knowledge. Even in highschool, i swear I dealt with people like this
A high-schooler relative of mine couldn't tell you where Japan was, but could tell you about the detailed history of something that happened in Japan. It's like they teach history without showing the students a map. That's my theory why these kids kept saying, "idk history," when talking about geography.
Often they teach geography as part of history class. A lot of schools don't have a specific geography class outside of high school electives. For part of my Euro History class we always had to memorize the map of countries of each test unit. I always did poorly placing them exactly, but knew the general area.
I was a person that hated history classes but I still got high 80s in the classes and grades in the 80s on state tests I had to pass in history. Geography was my jam. I literally had no interest in the rehashing of US history. It was incredibly boring. I did better with two years (we do two years in New York, with a whole year on a certain timeframe and then a second year on a different timeframe. For example, global 1 would be pre-1776 worldwide, and then Global 2 would be post-1776. Then we'd have a year in high school (3rd year) of purely US history and then 4th/last year it was half a year of economics and half a year of Participation on Government (like laws, voting, policy, etc). The Harlem Renaissance was the only interesting part of American history. That and learning about the different American Indian/Native American tribes (we actually visited a camp in 7th grade and got to live like they did for a day because our teacher was part Mohawk).
I am not american, I know the answers to most of the questions, but this motivates me to leave my phone and grab a book, I can feel my brain letting all the prior knowledge I have slip away to make space for pop culture. Thank you Dylan (?
just gotta say both you and your editor are doing such an AMAZING job with your videos lately!!! they’re always fun but they keep getting better and better. got me giggling and shit😭
The only one I can forgive is the 3x3x3, because I have dyscalculia and that one was so difficult for me 😂 I’m not even American and I can answer all the other questions
I'm Canadian and I knew the answers but it's sad to see so many young people who either don't care or can't be bothered to learn more about the world outside their bubble.
I'm old and don't fit into this generation. But I will play devils advocate here... People get nervous with a camera in their face and won't question the questions. Like which state is Utah in... As a Canadian (yeah, we're a country. Mostly.) I know that Utah is a state, so I'm sure these kids do too. But the way it was worded was a trick, and cameras make you nervous. They used to do a show called Talking to Americans, where a Canadian would interview Americans on the street with similar questions about Canada. It was hilarious, but a little part of me felt bad for laughing because again, if you ask a trick question and they are under pressure... I can't say I wouldn't look stupid myself. Also, I want to have hope for the future. Edit: I watched the rest of the video. I am... Struggling to continue to defend them, and I no longer have hope for the future.
Yeah you can find a fuzzy version of it on YT. Rick Mercer is still great... I love the one where the 9 year old proves he's more intelligent than his mother lol
Yeah I've been on one of these roadside interviews and it did not go well lol. I panicked so much i said a stupid answer. But it was more of an opinion type interview though, not a q and a one which would be easier to answer
Here in Brazil we make fun of US gringos for being dumb, but I didn't know it was that serious. I laughed with hand on my conscience, because that's funny and worrying at the same time.
Certeza que exageraram, mas também não muito. Minha amiga passou um ano nos EUA e teve que ir pro high school deles, e sem piada, a prova de matemática deles era passar metro pra quilômetro e pra milimetro, pq eles não usam o sistema métrico, então todo mundo se fudendo lá, e ela só acrescentando zero e botando vírgula (ponto, na real, pq eles usam ponto pra decimais). Na verdade, o ensino médio deles é muito mais fácil que o nosso, eles tem créditos de cada disciplina pra cumprir e depois vem as eletivas e os clubes lá. A minha amiga que não era a mais estudiosa virou straight A honor student na escola dela lá e ganhou até certificados de leitura e tudo.
To this day I thought I was the dumbest person to walk this planet but after watching this I now feel elevated on a level I've never experienced before in my life
I got all the answers right and I'm not American. Shame we have to learn so much about a country that isn't ours and people there don't know their own history/geography. Your videos always make me laugh Dylan. Thanks for that.
As a South African and someone who’s gen z,this hurts me.We had to learn about other continents for geography and history,and I had to do good in school.For me to be younger than them and me getting like 3 wrong is sad
We definitely learn it but these videos do a great job of finding people who don’t know the right answers (also I’m from SA as well and I’m so glad I learned to love education)
I’m in my 30s and I am sorry to say these individuals are smarter than the people I went to high school and college with. We used to do trivia games in class and the answers my peers gave just made me feel so bad for all the teachers who spent their time trying to impart knowledge. And yes, I’m from the USA.
Same. I was seen as the smart kid cuz I knew how to pay attention and still to this day people try to tell me idk what I'm talking about, even after showing multiple times.
@@celianunn2070 I remember those days. People have learned not to try arguing with me. Not only will I be right, I’ll know exactly how to prove I’m right. Case in point, the Navy is in my family. I had a substitute teacher tell me my surname (I’m not giving it out) is spelled wrong. I explained that sextant is Not my last name. That my surname is actually a position in the church. This idiot told me I was wrong so I got the dictionary and looked up both words, then had him read the definitions. I was 12 years old. He was probably in his late 20s/early 30s. I’ve had many similar encounters since.
@@kailyns8159 Yea same. I don't know why but I've had to do that 3-5 times to the same person and they would still be adamant that I was wrong. Idk if it's cuz I was "shy" (I didn't talk unless I had something to say" when I was younger, or if my demeanor comes off as someone who would easily change my mind. IDK. I'm 28, and this still happens.
@@celianunn2070 That sounds like a very stupid or very stubborn person. If not both. I wish I could say it gets better. But the truth is it doesn’t. There will always be some moron who is convinced he or she knows everything and you couldn’t possibly be right. I was born with 3 very rare medical problems. After knowing me 18 years, my best friend told me one of my medical issues didn’t exist and that I couldn’t have the symptoms I was having. I just stared at him like “are you sure you want to be schooled right now?” He remained adamant that I had told him the wrong condition. So I said “would you like to see the giant binders I’ve got chock full of my history with this condition that doesn’t exist? I’ve got 30 years of medical documentation.” And for some reason he decided to argue that I couldn’t have that many medical papers. At that point I lost it. There is 1 thing in this world that I know more about than anyone: my health. So if you have the gall to tell me I don’t know what I’m talking about, you better be prepared for the rage coming your way in response. I have been hospitalized a lot of times over what seemed like minor symptoms. I know when something is wrong. Shoot, I just saved my life in March by recognizing that I was turning yellow because my liver was in trouble.
As a teacher I can confirm. But I have to say...everyone is trying to blame the schools but in my honest opinion from what i've seen it has nothing to do with what is taught in the classroom but what media the students are consuming in their free time. When I was growing up we watched tv shows that explored things like history in a fun way or at least made intelligent jokes about history and/or science facts. magic school bus, mr rogers, boy meets world, game shows, etc. It was carefully crafted and scripted by networks and educated adults. Even the stupid jokes referenced facts and trivia and would reinforce things learned at school. That's how we all know the basic information needed to answer the questions in this video. Now all the kids are watching these days is content made by their peers or adults who are just trying to go viral and get views. Slime videos, pranks, memes, dances, challenges, drama, thirst traps, fail videos! It's what I call "serotonin shot" content, which is fine in moderation but I feel that's all they get anymore!
no they teach this in our schools people just cheat so much they don’t learn anything now. like ik all of these answers and im a gen z american these people are just ridiculously stupid and didn’t pay attention in school.
I always try to take comfort when watching these kinds of videos, that they only show the people who get the answers wrong, and some people answered the questions correctly.
Oh my days here we go. Wait Dylan is unrecognisable without his nose ring. 😂 The fact that I’m Aussie and know that the DC stands for District of Columbia, is something else 😂
Honestly history class for me was a blur during middle school, and what i ended up making through high school. I feel like i learn way more valuable and like shocking/heart breaking stuff on my own. My school sugar costed shit, avioded stuff, i felt like some stuff we really didn't need to spend months on but yet we would spend what? maybe a month at most even less time on the holocaust and other very important events in our timeline...
the sad thing is that there are some states that completely educate their students and other states that don’t. curriculum in the United States varies from county to county, let alone state to state. it’s not the same everywhere. i knew the answers to all of these things, but my parents were super particular with where we lived, where i want to school, and which classes i took
A gernan TV/ Late Night show did this quite a few times about ten, twenty years ago. There are people with little knowledge everywhere across all age groups but getting it compiled and generated into one clip is always scary 😂 with Dylan’s commentary at least there is comic relief balancing it out a bit Also, “The US was founded 40 years after McDonald’s” (8:42) almost had me spitting out my food. Thank you editor 😁
Wigald Boning hat in den 90ern das gleiche für Samstag Nacht gemacht. Nur in halbwegs intelligent. Das beste war, als er Leute gefragt hat: "Die Bundesregierung will endlich das Gravitationsgesetz abschaffen. Was halten Sie davon?" Als Antwort bekam er mehrere rants darüber, dass die Regierung jetzt endlich mal was tun würde oder sich lieber um wichtigere Dinge kümmern sollte. Großartig.
for the continents: the answer will be different depending on which country you're from; many countries learn that there are 6 continents, US citizens (for example) learn that there are 7, because they separate the america by "the americaS" (north and south) and a lot of countries just know about americA, the whole continent divided by 3 subregions (north, central and south)
@@ashmeeta2826 Even if that is true it would still be 6 because there's north America, south America, Europe + Asia, Africa, Australia, and then antartica
Me: a dutch person watching this video, feels attacked when Dylan is roasting my knowledge about another country I've never been, but also knowing almost all of the answers..
By the time Dylan's book comes out, technology will be so advanced that the book wrote itself
It will be downloaded straight to our brains.

lmao it is dumb but i understand why. in all the schools ive ever been too, we never had a geography class. geography was just taught in history
The thing is a lot of this is mismatched. They ask a question, and use their answer from another question to make them look stvpid.
see that statement i can understand because in the american school system most of the time geography is just put into history classes and isn’t its own separate class
As an American gen z, I promise we're not all this uneducated 💀😭 (This actually made me feel way smarter than I thought)

I live in the U.S. and I promise you that these people are not indicative of an entire generation, I’m 22, and have known many people around my age that are much more informed about America.
i love how instead of educating them, he lets them think they’re right. what a king 😂
if you don't they will fight you.
As a British person, I got them all right except a couple of American history ones. I’ve gotta be 5+ younger than alot of them
Same but I'm their age, I feel like most Gen Z from the UK and other countries know more in terms of general knowledge than Gen Z from the USA
As one apart of Gen Z who knew the answer to all the questions, I felt an indescribable swell of shame in my chest watching this. Society has failed once more
The girl in the lesbian tank top, I'm like queen you're making us look bad. They have to be putting in just the stupid answers for this?
@@violetsanddragons yes they literally only show the bad ones, also some of them are under the influence of something lol and alot of these kids are anxious about being asked questions
This video actually enraged me

Can we take a moment to appreciate Joe's editing? That was a comedic masterpiece all on its own. Dylan was alright too; I guess. I mean he was there so... alright, bye.
I personally find this new editing way too over the top! I feel like Dylan is so funny on his own that he doesn't need all the over-editing to make him funnier
@@kfish6347 He definitely is! His videos are still very funny without all the editing, I agree. But I found myself so amused with this one and that was mainly because Joe amplified and added to Dylan's already funny persona. So he deserved some recognition as well imo. Great succes!
LMAOOO
joe is matching dylan's energy so well this is so perfect
It really is

Yeah, not only England calls it football… the rest of the world does too. America is the only one that doesn’t call it football, they are the odd ones out.
Australia also doesn’t call it football…
I think one thing to consider when watching these videos is that the creator has the intention to make gen Z (or the group of people they are interviewing) look bad. That being said, they can just pick and choose the people who answered the questions incorrectly but not those who answered it correctly.
yeah and i mean, they aren't really gonna put in people who answered normally because thats not entertaining.
Bruh NO ONE should get these questions wrong
@@vanhoumin they edit their answars, so many cuts is a bit sus. they ask a different question like 3x3x4 people answer 36 and then they edit in a different question so they look stupid.
@@thzkimoton7932 yea it was kinda weird so many ppl said 36 so I'm sure they must have asked another question? Also everyone mentioning the president when being asked about the civil war was kinda sus
Yeah I'm sure if they included every person who answered, there would be a lot more correct ones, that the incorrect ones wouldn't seem as significant.
On a real note, your editor is popping off. These edits are so funny and theh compliment your presence and sarcastic humor perfectly.
Ikr some of them had me wheezing
I love how when Dylan actually posts on Monday it’s on the wrong channel
Oh my it really is Monday. I didn't even notice to be honest that he posted on Monday for once
this deserves way more likes, it didn’t even dawn on me that it was Monday 😭
and the wrong video lol
American here. I helped a friend by watching her son after school until she got home, and, yeah, I was pretty concerned about schools today. His friends just shared answers with each other on their papers and the teachers didn't care. Not sure how you retain anything that you don't have to strive for. Also worked with the teens in our church youth group who were unintentionally hilarious. Few understand analog clocks or have the months memorized. Scary.
parents also contribute to this. they’re enablers. parents don’t go over this stuff with them to make sure they know what they should
as someone who graduated high school 2 years ago, i am physically pained by this video and refuse to believe they weren't paid to get every question wrong. that, or they just didn't include anyone who got the answers right
I live in Canada & graduated about 18 years ago & got them all right. I'm kind of thinking they may have just not included all the ones that got the questions right
They def paid them to get it wrong. There’s no way anyone born in American doesn’t know what Utah is
I graduated 10 years ago and I got all of them right.
@@skyllarkuppinger6751honestly I wouldn’t put it past that some US citizens wouldn’t know these answers. We are pretty dumb.

YESS! One of my favorite things about Ooga Booga is that every time I see a video uploaded that I didn’t expect, my day is already brightened
He has to be cutting out the footage of people getting it right cause there’s no way
But the fact that this many people are still in the video is concerning
The channel the video came from definitely has a certain….. agenda let’s say lol they went looking to try and make people look stupid
My favourite part is how the guy keeps his cool and firmly says 'yes', no matter how ridiculous the answer is
I'm always cautious to believe some of these quiz in the street vids because some of them are edited intentionally to make them look stupid - cutting in answers for other questions. However that being said, I learnt more general knowledge after I left school. High school absolutely failed this generation because it hasn't changed or adapted its ways of teaching. A one size fits all doesn't work. Also love your vids, Dylan 🥰
As an asian and as a gen z, this hurts so much watching. In most asian cultures, there is a subtle competition of who is the smartest and the pressure of learning a lot in school as to not be seen as "dumb" or "stupid" by your fellow classmates or batchmates. Like Im not an american ofc, but some of these are very simple questions that should even be considered as "common" knowledge. Thank you Dylan for this video, know that you are smart, and that I hope this video enlightens other people.
Even I knew the answers and I don't even live in the US😅
Fellow gen z asian here (why does introducing yourself like this just feel ridiculous and awkward lol) I agree this exist and I partly hate it. Sure we aren't lacking in common knowledge at least but there's this superiority and condescending behavior that comes with this and that sucks. I don't like cringing at people who don't know things, because that's an easy fix (especially if they're willing), just teach them. Problem solved!
We also have to be aware that the video Dylan's watching is edited and they probably filtered out all the people with the right answer in order to make a point out of, what, 4 to 5 people? So yeah.
@@GreySeashell-j3m Good point tho yeah, makes sense that they would filter out the people who answered correctly cuz ofc, the people who get it wrong makes it more content-worthy or click-baity idk. And I also agree that we should just teach people if they happen to not know instead of looking down or making them feel less (which I really dont understand why the previous generations do that to us wtf)
@@Tisbilly hmmm I see, but in your country, the competition is more on wealth I would say, and popularity. Correct me if Im wrong, but this is just an observation. Nothing really wrong with that, its just that it is different from other countries.
lol please don't take this video as a representation of the average American citizen.
as an indian gen z this hurts my eyes because we were taught all this literally at 5 years old, even most of the questions related to the US 😭 now i feel like what we're learning in secondary school is way beyond what high school students in the US learn
its not gen z, its U.S gen z
They were probably taught this at the age of 5 too. The difference is they didn't care about class because that went against everything for their rebellion for "individuality".
Nothing related to the video but I'm Kenyan, and we learnt about the electoral process of India and I think something about the partition
Nah I’m us and Gen z and I can’t physically comprehend how ppl don’t know this 😭
@@Moon-uy8zk It's not US gen z, it's people the guy making the video picked to make it look like everyone is stupid
I try to make myself feel better thinking he interviewed multiple people, who knew the answers, but only showed the cringe clips. I have to believe that. I. Have. To.
When he asked how old she would be if she was born 10 years ago, and I can’t explain why, but stupid me actually had hope they would answer it right. Then she shattered my (relatively small) confidence in humanity instead
Dylan trying to explain the 60m/h question gave me traumatic flashbacks to when my dad would try to teach me math and would just repeat himself until he was yelling and I was crying lmfao
now that’s the real civil war that every kid lost growing up
i guess thats an experience everyone has
Why is that so relatable 😭😭

So true! I’m entertained by both of them. 😂
When Dylan learns that half of these are staged that’s going to blow his mind even more 💀
Sadly the tiktoker has said it’s not staged
It doesn’t even matter if it’s staged or not, there are real people out there like this and most of them are Gen Z and Millennials
@@estherkamara6722 I mean you can't take him at his word, plus look at the video and all the video cuts and that some of the people give similar answers like mentioning the president and history.

11:50 District of Columbia… I’ll throw as many rocks as I want to lol
storytime: when i was in middle school - to pretty much graduating highschool, i was extremely, extremely depressed. i lost my parents and missed out on a TON of school and my teachers pretty much just looked the other way because I'd miss school and honestly tell them I was too sad to come. anyway - this resulted in me missing out on a ton of 'common knowledge' classes like geography, history etc and I was always so embarrassed because I felt like I was behind everyone and that I was secretly the dumbest person in the room but listening to videos like these... these are all genuinely common knowledge things. like these are things you learn just by being a human and interacting with at least somewhat smart and knowledgeable people. forget textbooks, if you read, AT ALL, you'll come across most if not all of this info. obviously, the bar is extremely low, but I haven't heard a single question that I couldn't answer in this video. so clearly, not all about school lol
I love u for this, like fr these are the most basic questions you know from life. Even for me who is not american and didn't learn abt all the states and stuffin school ( I am from europe, i know suprise suprise) + I've never felt like a "smart" kid in school, let say I was regular yk and still got 95% questions right :-)
@Nina Cael I hope you're doing better now! You're way smarter than you realize and I'm so happy you're with us today!!!
You are very right, and I hope you’re doing better now! Sending prayers your way
It's really not all about school! Even if you watch any movies or shows at all you would know most of these. I'm European so I don't really have to know the answers to the questions geared towards Americans, and I still know most of them. It's really not that hard, please 😭
@@popuri48 yeah it’s not hard but a lot of these common questions just don’t stick LOL (aka me not being able to answer some of the questions)

as someone attending a community college... they do have graduations, but i promise you a lot of people act like this. really sadly, they don't know seemingly basic knowledge. Even in highschool, i swear I dealt with people like this
A high-schooler relative of mine couldn't tell you where Japan was, but could tell you about the detailed history of something that happened in Japan. It's like they teach history without showing the students a map. That's my theory why these kids kept saying, "idk history," when talking about geography.
Often they teach geography as part of history class. A lot of schools don't have a specific geography class outside of high school electives. For part of my Euro History class we always had to memorize the map of countries of each test unit. I always did poorly placing them exactly, but knew the general area.
I was a person that hated history classes but I still got high 80s in the classes and grades in the 80s on state tests I had to pass in history. Geography was my jam. I literally had no interest in the rehashing of US history. It was incredibly boring. I did better with two years (we do two years in New York, with a whole year on a certain timeframe and then a second year on a different timeframe. For example, global 1 would be pre-1776 worldwide, and then Global 2 would be post-1776. Then we'd have a year in high school (3rd year) of purely US history and then 4th/last year it was half a year of economics and half a year of Participation on Government (like laws, voting, policy, etc). The Harlem Renaissance was the only interesting part of American history. That and learning about the different American Indian/Native American tribes (we actually visited a camp in 7th grade and got to live like they did for a day because our teacher was part Mohawk).
"if you're born 10 years ago how old are you?"
"Twelve"
Yeah if you're Korean maybe😂😂😂
no bc it would be 11 in korean age so it’s still wrong
I am not american, I know the answers to most of the questions, but this motivates me to leave my phone and grab a book, I can feel my brain letting all the prior knowledge I have slip away to make space for pop culture. Thank you Dylan (?
I refuse to believe as a Canadian these people are actually struggling.…it has to be a joke
Gotta give props to Dylan’s editor because his made me laugh through the entire video and of course Dylan is excellent as always
As a part of Gen Z, I approve of this message
Love that he didn't wear a nose ring so that he didn't have to lump himself in with the stupidity😂😂
as an Asian gen z, i invented the answers to these questions 2 years before i was born.
guys i don't think dylan knows how many continents there are...
watching this kind of videos is kind of a guilty pleasure so watching dylan reacting to em is so funny
just gotta say both you and your editor are doing such an AMAZING job with your videos lately!!! they’re always fun but they keep getting better and better. got me giggling and shit😭
The only one I can forgive is the 3x3x3, because I have dyscalculia and that one was so difficult for me 😂 I’m not even American and I can answer all the other questions
As an Idahoan I can confirm that Japan is required learning in Elementary School. We're all fluent.

Not true. I only learned United States fluently, but did learn some France as an elective. Some kids learned Spain. None learned Japan.

I'm Canadian and I knew the answers but it's sad to see so many young people who either don't care or can't be bothered to learn more about the world outside their bubble.
I'm old and don't fit into this generation. But I will play devils advocate here... People get nervous with a camera in their face and won't question the questions. Like which state is Utah in... As a Canadian (yeah, we're a country. Mostly.) I know that Utah is a state, so I'm sure these kids do too. But the way it was worded was a trick, and cameras make you nervous.
They used to do a show called Talking to Americans, where a Canadian would interview Americans on the street with similar questions about Canada. It was hilarious, but a little part of me felt bad for laughing because again, if you ask a trick question and they are under pressure... I can't say I wouldn't look stupid myself.
Also, I want to have hope for the future.
Edit: I watched the rest of the video. I am... Struggling to continue to defend them, and I no longer have hope for the future.
Yeah you can find a fuzzy version of it on YT. Rick Mercer is still great... I love the one where the 9 year old proves he's more intelligent than his mother lol
Yeah I've been on one of these roadside interviews and it did not go well lol. I panicked so much i said a stupid answer. But it was more of an opinion type interview though, not a q and a one which would be easier to answer

Certeza que exageraram, mas também não muito. Minha amiga passou um ano nos EUA e teve que ir pro high school deles, e sem piada, a prova de matemática deles era passar metro pra quilômetro e pra milimetro, pq eles não usam o sistema métrico, então todo mundo se fudendo lá, e ela só acrescentando zero e botando vírgula (ponto, na real, pq eles usam ponto pra decimais). Na verdade, o ensino médio deles é muito mais fácil que o nosso, eles tem créditos de cada disciplina pra cumprir e depois vem as eletivas e os clubes lá. A minha amiga que não era a mais estudiosa virou straight A honor student na escola dela lá e ganhou até certificados de leitura e tudo.
I promise we’re not all this dumb I’m so sorry🫠🤣

@@calliope3237 oh okay.But even so,subjects like Math and English are important subjects in order to pass
We definitely learn it but these videos do a great job of finding people who don’t know the right answers (also I’m from SA as well and I’m so glad I learned to love education)
I’m in my 30s and I am sorry to say these individuals are smarter than the people I went to high school and college with. We used to do trivia games in class and the answers my peers gave just made me feel so bad for all the teachers who spent their time trying to impart knowledge. And yes, I’m from the USA.
Same. I was seen as the smart kid cuz I knew how to pay attention and still to this day people try to tell me idk what I'm talking about, even after showing multiple times.
@@celianunn2070 I remember those days. People have learned not to try arguing with me. Not only will I be right, I’ll know exactly how to prove I’m right. Case in point, the Navy is in my family. I had a substitute teacher tell me my surname (I’m not giving it out) is spelled wrong. I explained that sextant is Not my last name. That my surname is actually a position in the church. This idiot told me I was wrong so I got the dictionary and looked up both words, then had him read the definitions. I was 12 years old. He was probably in his late 20s/early 30s.
I’ve had many similar encounters since.
@@kailyns8159 Yea same. I don't know why but I've had to do that 3-5 times to the same person and they would still be adamant that I was wrong. Idk if it's cuz I was "shy" (I didn't talk unless I had something to say" when I was younger, or if my demeanor comes off as someone who would easily change my mind. IDK. I'm 28, and this still happens.
@@celianunn2070 That sounds like a very stupid or very stubborn person. If not both. I wish I could say it gets better. But the truth is it doesn’t. There will always be some moron who is convinced he or she knows everything and you couldn’t possibly be right.
I was born with 3 very rare medical problems. After knowing me 18 years, my best friend told me one of my medical issues didn’t exist and that I couldn’t have the symptoms I was having. I just stared at him like “are you sure you want to be schooled right now?” He remained adamant that I had told him the wrong condition. So I said “would you like to see the giant binders I’ve got chock full of my history with this condition that doesn’t exist? I’ve got 30 years of medical documentation.” And for some reason he decided to argue that I couldn’t have that many medical papers. At that point I lost it. There is 1 thing in this world that I know more about than anyone: my health. So if you have the gall to tell me I don’t know what I’m talking about, you better be prepared for the rage coming your way in response. I have been hospitalized a lot of times over what seemed like minor symptoms. I know when something is wrong. Shoot, I just saved my life in March by recognizing that I was turning yellow because my liver was in trouble.
As a teacher I can confirm. But I have to say...everyone is trying to blame the schools but in my honest opinion from what i've seen it has nothing to do with what is taught in the classroom but what media the students are consuming in their free time. When I was growing up we watched tv shows that explored things like history in a fun way or at least made intelligent jokes about history and/or science facts. magic school bus, mr rogers, boy meets world, game shows, etc. It was carefully crafted and scripted by networks and educated adults. Even the stupid jokes referenced facts and trivia and would reinforce things learned at school. That's how we all know the basic information needed to answer the questions in this video. Now all the kids are watching these days is content made by their peers or adults who are just trying to go viral and get views. Slime videos, pranks, memes, dances, challenges, drama, thirst traps, fail videos! It's what I call "serotonin shot" content, which is fine in moderation but I feel that's all they get anymore!
The fact that even I knew these answers and I don't even live in America is wild lmao. And the basic questions bro my brain hurts.
I refuse to believe that these people are not being paid to say the wrong answers
im convinced only american teenagers act like this because what the hell 😭😭😭
ikr we learnt this shit in primary
Ik they making us look stupid in the vid but I promise most of us don’t think like this 🤣. At least not where I’m at lol.
i swear the majority of us aren’t like this 😭 idk how these ppl are getting the questions so wrong
no they teach this in our schools people just cheat so much they don’t learn anything now. like ik all of these answers and im a gen z american these people are just ridiculously stupid and didn’t pay attention in school.
As someone who travels often, no, it is not just Americans. Americans just have more confidence in being wrong.
"how many seasons are there?" ...why did my brain immediately go "of what show?" 😭
Mine too😅😅
same 😭
Because the question before that was about the Kardashians. At least that's what I thought about
Are you Gen Z?
JESS?!?! Omg i love ur reactions & finding out ur a troublemaker makes it even better 🥺
I always try to take comfort when watching these kinds of videos, that they only show the people who get the answers wrong, and some people answered the questions correctly.
15:45 isn’t actually a typo, there is no flaw in using “would’ve” in place of “would have”!
Indeed, I think he just undermined the point of the video. Maybe brain death admits of degrees?
Oh my days here we go. Wait Dylan is unrecognisable without his nose ring. 😂
The fact that I’m Aussie and know that the DC stands for District of Columbia, is something else 😂
the education system has really failed us lol but glad you are a Gen Z just like us Dylan! 😌😂
Honestly history class for me was a blur during middle school, and what i ended up making through high school. I feel like i learn way more valuable and like shocking/heart breaking stuff on my own. My school sugar costed shit, avioded stuff, i felt like some stuff we really didn't need to spend months on but yet we would spend what? maybe a month at most even less time on the holocaust and other very important events in our timeline...
I'm 22 years old and this actually hurt for me to watch. This just can't be real. 🤣🤣
as a college student, I feel the need to share that most of us are not this stupid
the sad thing is that there are some states that completely educate their students and other states that don’t. curriculum in the United States varies from county to county, let alone state to state. it’s not the same everywhere. i knew the answers to all of these things, but my parents were super particular with where we lived, where i want to school, and which classes i took
A gernan TV/ Late Night show did this quite a few times about ten, twenty years ago. There are people with little knowledge everywhere across all age groups but getting it compiled and generated into one clip is always scary 😂 with Dylan’s commentary at least there is comic relief balancing it out a bit
Also, “The US was founded 40 years after McDonald’s” (8:42) almost had me spitting out my food. Thank you editor 😁

for the continents: the answer will be different depending on which country you're from; many countries learn that there are 6 continents, US citizens (for example) learn that there are 7, because they separate the america by "the americaS" (north and south) and a lot of countries just know about americA, the whole continent divided by 3 subregions (north, central and south)
