Idk much about this person's language or cultural background, but in Greek, Mars is called Άρης (Ares). If he learned the planets in another language that borrowed from Greek instead of Roman, this isn't the most far-fetched answer. He still would have gotten it wrong, though.

To be fair, apart from the fact that he clearly knows the planets by the names of the original greek names, I'm pretty sure he might have just heard the question as 'wuth names starting with "a"' instead of 'that have "a" in their names' Possibly
Ares is a planet, the 4th one when counting up from the sun. Only the Greek use the Greek god names for the planets though. Except for Uranus for some reason...
I thought he was saying Eris. I would have loved that answer because 1. it‘s more than 1, 2. Eros is not a planet but a dwarf planet. 3. it‘s not spelled with an A.

I love the "ohhh she's dumb, I'm soo gonna win this, easy" look on his face when she answers.
I love how certain people on here are making excuses coz he’s a sikh and might’ve learnt different names for the planets in his own language yet those same people will say he’s British as he obviously sounds like he’s lived in England all his life. It’s his over confidence that makes it funny, doesn’t matter what he looks like
Hell even if he couldnt think of the names of any of the other planets, he should have at the very least said 'earth'. Lol 🤣
This is up there with when I saw a woman answer the question 'Which character from Wind in The Willows is the largest?' with... 'Piglet'.

"Sean Connery, Ben, he was in The Rock with Nic Cage."
Would've been a less confusing answer lol
I feel like Einstein rn.. Just shows how much self confidence plays part in our everyday decisions
To be fair, apart from the fact that he clearly knows the planets by the names of the original greek names, I'm pretty sure he might have just heard the question as 'wuth names starting with "a"' instead of 'that have "a" in their names'
Possibly
The host doing his best not to laugh at the sheer stupidity is the best part.
This is me after the finals exam when my friends are talking about their answers
He lived his entire life thinking Ares was a planet... that doesn't even sink in
Ares not Aries
Ares is a planet, the 4th one when counting up from the sun.
Only the Greek use the Greek god names for the planets though. Except for Uranus for some reason...
I thought he was saying Eris. I would have loved that answer because 1. it‘s more than 1, 2. Eros is not a planet but a dwarf planet. 3. it‘s not spelled with an A.
Me: "ok, Mercury no, Venus no, Earth yes, Mars yes, Jupiter no, Saturn yes, Uranus yes, Neptune no, Pluto no-" *the realization hits and I fall to the ground crying, unable to answer the question due to grief over Pluto*
Never forget
He will always be a planet to me
It’s like, “no he’s not stupid, he’s misunderstood the question.” Even in misunderstanding he’s still obscenely wrong 😂
Hermes is Mercury
Aphrodite is Venus
Ares is Mars
Zeus is Jupiter
Cronus is Saturn
Ouranus is Uranus
Poseidon is Neptune
Hades is Pluto
Who…. Asked?
You forgot Gaia = Terra = Earth = the planet you live in
@C ok boomer
@C oh you're so cool, you don't like information or to actually learn stuff, you must be very popular and have a cool name like chad
So the answer is still 4 when using the Greek names. Because we are counting Earth as well and not Pluto.
The way his smile disappeared when she said "Uranus". The realization hits you that you weren't thinking of planets.
🙄 That one is about worn out.
That's a Sikh answer bro, done deliberately to make us laugh no doubt ... fair play
I see what you did there

That morning, his horoscope read: prepare for challenges in life. You may find that you do not have the necessary tools to cope, so be open to learning something new.
I keep rewatching this and cannot get over this guy’s answer.
If you just consider the Greek names, he's not wrong. Ares is the Greek name for Mars.
@@SlideRSB But the Greek name for Venus is Aphrodite so he's still wrong?
Ares

"MoVE MY SUN Pluto"
(using the misspelling "Yupiter" instead of "Jupiter").
Thanks!
I would be able to use the planets to remember that mnemonic. Maybe.
Btw, you can drop Pluto.
@@yurenchu >>Using the mnemonic “move my sun Pluto” to remember the planets.
@@alexmuenster2102 As I explained, I've always had trouble to memorise the order of the outer four planets .This mnemonic would do the trick.
Additionally, one could interpret "Mo" as an abbreviation of "Mercurio" (although the proper name of the planet in English is _Mercury_ ), in order to distinguish between which M stands for Mercury and which M stands for Mars.
@@landsgevaer "Btw, you can drop Pluto"
The "Pluto" helps to establish in which direction the mnemonic must be read (from inner to outer planets, instead of _vice versa_ ).

Greek isn't a dead language.
@@briancooley8777 Caelus is actually Roman. It's just that William Herschel went with a misspelling of a greek God Ouranous when he couldn't name the planet he discovered "King George's Star".

Nine. There are nine planets in the Solar System. Justice for Pluto!
Pluto got demoted a few years ago to 'dwarf planet'. My Very Easy Method Just Speeds Up Naming.
@@JoshAston23 I wouldn't exactly call 2006 'a few years ago'. Also, gee, thanks for the explanation, I guess; with a comment like that, why would you assume I don't know that already?
Absolutely not. Pluto’s demotion is very much needed. It has not cleared its orbital neighborhood of other debris, meaning it shares its orbit with other objects of similar size.

Also whatever way you can interpret this question he’s wrong every time. Genuinely impressive
Zodiac and planets confused
One of the biggest reasons I'd never go on a show like that. I would be extremely nervous and I could see myself saying something that dumb
Actually it could prove to be the reverse, to be beneficial to you as it could teach you not to take everything so seriously as pretty much nothing is worth it. It's extremely liberating once you realize this, ya know.
That woman radiates evil and shows toxic behaviour. How her facial expressions were filled with disgust and contempt anytime he spoke. Then cruelly smiled when he flopped under her pressure. It's like she has internally judged him based on his appearance and placed herself on some sort of superiority pedestal. And it doesn't only happen on this show - it's common everywhere.

Ben trying not to laugh 😂😂
Would’ve been embarrassing to finish that video for the reaction for his sake 😂
No it wouldn't!
I wish it hadn't been cut off so quickly. ☹
I’m baffled at his thought process for this answer. He either somehow confused planets for Star signs, or he somehow confused the fact that planets are named after Roman gods for Greek gods. Either way there are more of each that include A! Legendary answer.
He's Indian. I'm guessing his first language is Punjabi or Hindi. The word we have for planet is also the word very commonly used in Astrology. Astrology is sort of a big deal in India and we have several mainstream-ish news channels talk about it during lunch hour. One is literally called "Grah Nakshatra" where "grah" literally means planet.
As for why he said only Aries, he probably misheard the question and thought how many ""planets'" names start with letter A
@@av-xd6bz still wrong you got Aquarius too
@@emmalauriston4983 Yep he made lots of mistakes
@@emmalauriston4983 But Aquarius is not among the _first eight_ zodiac signs (or the "eight signs occurring during Daylight Saving Time), maybe that's why he didn't consider it (as he must/could have known that there are 12 zodiac signs).
Who tf is going to sample out a size of "the eight zodiac signs during daylight savings" when asked this question? That's not how anyone's thought process would work, and honestly doing such mental gymnastics to get to the answer would make it more idiotic than if you just forgot the other signs with "a" existed lmao
I was expecting him to say something like 9 but this is way better.
He obviously confused planets with the zodiac star systems. How embarrassing.
But even if it was about the zodiac star system he would still be wrong lmao
No constellation (or star) named Ares. Ares *_is_* another name for Mars.
Whoops. Forgot about Aries, silly me doesn't follow astrology. 🤦🏼♂️
Not obviously. Someone pointed here in the comments that Mars in Greek is Ares. So if he was educated with that background he got it just right; and perhaps he thought of names that started with A, which was an interpretation mistake, as I and many others here made as well.
@@ANDREPEIXOTO1 Aphrodite:

And the Greek god equivalent to Mars is Ares.
@@Chevy-jordan - U sure abt that?
He's certainly not keeping brains under that wrapping! 😅
Did he mix up planets with star signs, or did he mix up the planets' Roman names with their Greek equivalents?
I think he thought "starts with the letter A"
@@demonking86420 probably, and the first comes in his mind was aries, a star zodiac sign
(i doubt he was thinking of Ares at all)
@@dxnd_ heck if he was thinking of zodiac constellations there's Aries, Cancer, Libra, Sagittarius, Capricorn, Aquarius(six that have the letter A in it)

@@demonking86420 yep, nobody said he was right in anyway and it doesn't matter whatsoever what's the truth was its just wasting time brain energy lol
im just saying you're probably correct
that he thought the question is "start with the letter A" and the first thing that comes to mind is Aries because he put himself on a spot and feels like he has to answer quickly, idk maybe its his star sign
