actually i rekon that little segment must have taken a while to film, beacuse they had to filter out all the clever blokes and pick the dumb ones to back Clarkson up.
its not that hard to name a single european country, even school kids can do it.
but what i do know is that 90% of the americans (college students) dont know south africa as a country, to an average american, SA just means southern part of africa. Everytime i tell ppl that im from SA, they just automatically assume that i live in a hut and ride an elephant to work everyday, and then proceed to put up a dumb look on their face and ask "so, where exactly is south africa? what country is that?" :lol:
