- According to a new poll (taken before Trump's 'Fire and Fury' threat) 75% of Americans believe that North Korea's nuclear program is a 'critical threat' to the U.S. This made Jimmy wonder how many Americans even know where North Korea is so we went out to Hollywood Boulevard to find out.

How Many Americans Know Where North Korea Is?
• How Many Americans Kno... - บันเทิง
The scariest part about North Korea is that it could be anywhere.
Girl: Interesting
😂
I bet Americans cant tell where America is on the map
*whoosh*
Don't forget that sometimes they move it on the map.
v pai they did that outage and you’re absolutely right
general: we are at war with North korea
soldiers: *attack ohio*
General: _Actually,.. that's better!_
@@massimookissed1023 hold on lemme move first
*Ohio will be eliminated.*
Attack Cleveland first
Wise move
I love when the interviewer said: "The scariest part of North Korea is that it could be anywhere."🤣🤣🤣
Like those Vietnamese soldiers. Now, where is Vietnam on the map?
And she goes “Interesting 🤔” 🤣🤦🏼♂️
And she was like, really??😂
That gal who went "I'm good at geography" and went "somewhere around here" while circling China and Mongolia was at least in the ballpark.
Another guy kinda got it at well but everyone else just started guessing random countries
ikr, I thought the first lady pointing near canada was a fluke but I then I continued watching the video.... 💀
The circle she made covered China and the Korean peninsula, that's very close compared to others. Also the guy with the beard pointing at East China sea got pretty close too.
@@meowmeow3532She still could have been a fluke. They obviously select which people they choose to put in the video.
Everyone knows where north korea is though.
*Americans nuking north Korea*
Few minutes later
Canada: What was that for
This comment is awesome lol👏👏👏👏
Or the Middle East, wait they already bombed it
Maybe they’ll also throw nuke at California
Commander : (attacks Ohio)
Soldiers : Well, that's better!
@@tiki5430 No diffrence
"where is North Korea?"
*Points to Canada*
"That's Canada"
*Continues to point to Canada*
She was pointing long enough for it to magically change into north korea
COUNTRY IS COUNTRY!
No she did move it. She moved her finger to the US
Watch closely
That just killed me.. be prepared, Canada.
Scary how Americans have such strong opinions on stuff they don’t know anything about
It could be the definition of having strong opinions... Knowledgeable people tend to be nuanced.
As someone from Finland, Europe, i know most of the countries in the world, we had to learn them in school. Seeing this is so sad, and they call themselves superior to others
No they don’t. They know they’re fkn stupid. They just think that in terms of coolness they’re culture is superior. Which is probably true
It’s funny that you believe this is real
@@The_Shape_ it is real, why wouldn't it be?
Those who are inferior always call themselves superior...
Americans did too. These are clowns
Scary how everyone are so willing to go into war with a country they basically don't know anything about.
Ikr, and why, they get nothing from a war
Americans love wars
genetic op you’re right about that
Scrooge McDuck “god created war so that americans could learn geography”-Mark Twain
Yeah, I find this general level of ignorance to be more scary than entertaining. I'm wondering if the people in this video were just a very skewed sample of citizens?

When I was 10 years old I could name almost any country on the map, my skills died down a bit, but as a 12 year old I can still name all of the country’s that play a role, and about half of the country’s in the world, I am attempting to learn the name of every single city now. And relearn every country. This video killed my insides.
Me too
Me too😭...but attempting it now is not as fun as before but can still remember 😅
Same man. I took AP Human Geography in my freshman year of high school. At the end of the year, I had a 116/100 in the class due to getting more than the required amount of countries on each map test. Brought my GPA up to a 4.6. Dang I miss that year.
@@commanderrex6669 lol that's awesome.
@@commanderrex6669 Awesome! Sounds like a fun year. And also, I just realised that the map in the video is incorrect, its pre 2012.
“That’s the Middle East, we are already there” had me dying
"The scariest part about North Korea is that it could be anywhere", man, this line got me cracking xD
Intresting

Actually the scariest part is American could nuke anywhere and claim that North Korea.

And the woman at 1:19 pointing to Poland probably...

I think that’s Latvia.
as a canadian I would like them all to apologise
@@quarantineclub360 As a Canadian as well I personally think it would be more fitting if we apologize for the lack of information.
The scary part is that they even laugh at their own ignorance, instead of blushing like a fire extinguisher.
2:34 "they've done nothing to us" made me laugh so hard.

Pia - Yeah,why would you say that,then not even be close on the map?Idiot
if you cant find at least 90% of world countries then you are not good in geography
As a Canadian myself I know where North Korea is since I've watched a lot of documentaries of it and youtubers going there and if my grandfather was alive he would answer that question within 2 seconds of where North Korea is.
As a Canadian-South Korean I could also say the same
Love Canada is from North Korea 🇨🇦❤️🇰🇵
Rural Americans might dont know where north korea is or americans in the midwest.
I think many Americans in California know where north korea is.

- Where is North Korea located?
- Here?
- No.
- Here?
- No. You want a hint?

- It's right above South Korea

Ahahahahahaha
You could say east of China and they would still fail.
I literally cried.

Lol this never gets old
"Want a hint?"
"Yeah"
"It's right above south korea"
I can't 😂😂😂😂😂
It would have been funny if she recognised where South Korea is and pointed to it instantly 😂
Yes you can
Countries in the north of the earth are scared af since they might get nuke
The funny thing is that she was like, 'Oooh..." and acted as if she now knew where North Korea was
xD
Where is North Korea?
*POINTS AT CANADA*
canada:sorry for that
PoorCanada if the us decides to bomb kim
NO , That's NORTH AMERICA.
@Proud Bangladeshi গর্বিত বাংলাদেশী well actually she pointed nepal if you look closely
@Proud Bangladeshi গর্বিত বাংলাদেশী Looks like she is pointing at India to me. The part of India near Nepal and Bangladesh. That being said, she's way off yeah.
Proceeds to attack Canada....
That's sad and terrifying.
1:19 she literally pointed at my country (Lithuania) 🤣🤣
I've only got one thing to say: Canada is screwed...
As a Canadian I don't mind so much so long as it's the girl in the thumbnail doing the screwing.
@Rae West Arabs are not that bad with geography they know the difference between Canada and the USA. That is an American affliction.
crap.
@@HerveVillechaize22 haha I thought the same
Definitely. Imagine, North Korea hidden among their arctic islands. Terrifying.

Wtf. This comment should be on top.... 😂😂

please can we have one where everyone guesses right that would be SO satisfying
As a south Korean, I am terrified if the US can even tell the North and South Korea apart when they decide to go to war.
Where is North Korea?
*Points Canada*
WERE GONNA NUKE UUUUU
BEST CANADA
you know china?
canada with england, we could win any war
Bts Trash and I have heard that Queen elizabeth was pregnant a while ago😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I don't think it's THAT bad to not know where exactly north korea is .. but pointing at your own continent is some next level
Juhani U exactly! clearly not important to pinpoint exact location but it sure isnt in europe or canada!
"next level" lmfao
yeah.
Juhani U well with all the news about it it should be common knowledge
Arixel Dude chill out, I'm from the Netherlands and I cant pinpoint every country on this earth. It's not that big a deal.
"im bad at geography" thats a stupid excuse for not knowing basic stuff
Bro why are they pointing at the Middle East😭😭we already had enough😂😂
USA: launches a nuclear misile to North Korea. It ends in Madagascar
Im scared of the misiles and Im spanish
Madagascar isnt a bad variant. They can attack there own country or Canada instead of North Korea.

The Photog Diaries right! and a lot of these comments are people talking about how dumb we are... I mean hello not all of us are lol but I get it
imsteffers Ah well...most of the people commenting about how dumb 'all' Americans area already had a bias before seeing this anyways XD And yes, unfortunately I get it too...I guess all we can do is try to set a good example for our country when we can 😄

the scariest part about North Korea is that it can be anywhere.

That can be measured has concerning in some instances
Thus prooving that not everyone should vote
Do they not know anything outside of America?
lol

yup u are right!

Outside California
Should have ask where is the US of A…😂
Question: Where is north Korea?

and these people can vote....
Matthew Axelson They're actors
Matthew Axelson my point exactly
They probably don't though
Svenog Mapping Well, I've met some people who are not actors and are dumber than this. Some people I know think Texas is another country or each state is a different country. It's embarrassing.
It is truly embarrassing.
I can somewhat understand not knowing where a country is in the world map...
But not knowing your own country nor the neighbouring ones makes me seriously question your education system
Or generell intelligence... i learned all of it just by being in the internet. Not actually trying to punch information in my brain. this should be mandotory
Theyre on Hollywood Blvd. Its definitely not the pinnacle of intelligence in our country, probably close to the bottom tbh.
Yeah I'm 13 year old american and know the general location of most counties. Dissapoints me.
@@camronskillz2613 F
I'm on a mission to give all the children and foreigners some common sense. This is a comedy show. Don't take it too seriously. The whole point of the segment is to find and highlight people who don't know wtf they're talking about. It's not funny if you include everyone with a basic sense of geography. America has plenty of problems, including in its education system, but watching Jimmy Kimmel isn't how you diagnose those problems.
This hurts
I can’t believe no one knew.
When Kim Jong-un watch this: We are definitely safe from those American's nuclear attack.
When U.S.A attacking North Korea: FIRE!!!
Canadian, European: WHY THEY ATTACKING US?
and Russia march into Europe and say: Hurahhhhhhhhhhhh !!!!!

Western news, excluding America: America attacks its allies, reasons remain unknown
Oh no i from the UK and that in Europe i going to die that not good

"The scary part is. North Korea could be anywhere" EVEN IN CANADA!
Those damn Canadians, they're up to something
ComentAndDoment not the beavers again
There have been reports of North Korean officials in Europe and china that kidnap North Korean escapes and smuggle them back..

Truly scary!!!

Videogame Dump
We were supposed to learn that in 5th grade, which is like 10-11. They just picked the most retarded people to show. It's supposed to be funny, if they picked average Americans, it wouldn't be funny.
lol you read my mind
That's it I'm moving to Denmark!
I agree.....
Talking of Jesus, where will you be after the hoax WW3 when they unveil the fake second coming of Jesus? Jesus was a hoax, and the bible is a story book that says Jesus will return. Even in this video we have a reference to WW3, and look out for the Jesus references. We recently had Jesus Campos from the hoax shootings in Vegas.
As for the woman towards the end of this video, she's just a low level Eastern Star who was paid to look like an idiot. At least she made it on TeLIEvision.
These people dont even know their neighbouring countries? Wtf
That’s Hollywood for ya
Hahaha well its americans xD
+sneakypete187 oh i believe such people happens to be in every country.
I hate these people, they are the reason why North Korea ever disliked us
They don’t even know their own country! That black chick even pointed at the US ..... wtf 😂
It's sad that they don't even know the general area of where NK is, like they may not be able to specifically label and that's not such a big deal because an unlabeled map can get confusing especially with smaller countries, but they can't even identify the continents, and they don't seem to think that's a problem.
Do you have schools in the US?
schools in the US for multigenders only
now they probably think the earth is flat since you showed them a flat map

Philip Zimmermann agreed. If they get at least somewhere near China, at least Asia that's fine

I love how the one who pointed at Canada just kind of wiggled her finger around a bit hopefully when she was told
The part that is sad is that they have a twenty year old map on it without south sudan
I am South Korean and I totally thought, clicking on this video, it's okay if they don't know where exactly North Korea is, but come on.. at least you should know where the lump called Asia is..
I made you read this can't agree more, I'm so surprised that they can't even locate where Asia is or simply say something like somewhere within Asia by pointing the land mass, struck me how poor the education system is~ because of locating the continents on the map was a lot easier. Are these real responses or just acting purely for the show ???
I made you read this yeah they should have at least showed somewhere in Asia?Uneducated people..
old kpop is the best T.T Yeah but Asia is a big continent, even pointing at a random place in Asia is pretty pathetic
David B. I was saying if there's something wrong with the education system by not putting emphasis on geography. It was a geography question, and I didn't judge their respones nor did I link them to their intelligence level. Don't be so sensitive.
David B Even if staged this is pathetic.
“You need to be a geographer to know this”
Pretty sure a 5 year old kid with decent knowledge of the internet can identify where North Korea is.
I knew this when I was 9
I love Angelique Maybe some other five year old knows.
