The question writers for this show are amazing!! It's not the conventional trivia show, so this is really fresh.

[@ObscureReference9]

"let's see if you're smarter than half of America" People from literally any other country - "let me know when the game starts"

[@EricAKATheBelgianGuy]

"So you have decided...you are from Lakewood, California." "Yeah, I've decided that."

[@ElizabethBrendaLo]

The 1% question was NOTHING SHORT OF A BRILLIANT SURPRISE!!! I took some time off to figure out the answer because it wasn't immediately obvious to me by any means. Even after coming back to it after a while, it still made no sense to me. Finally, when the last contestant standing revealed his answer, I was like, "My goodness, this is a genius at work! Everything falls into place now!"

[@qweasdzxcname]

same.

[@bosedeepanjan]

I love that contestants becomes Audience in 1 go

[@SebbyAli]

I answered SWEETNESS. I started with the first letters of the up-down-left-right directions and realized I couldn't make a word out of them and shifted to those of NSWE.

[@ElizabethBrendaLo]

Excellent!!

[@silverlamb5768]

Actually the 1% question was easier than the 25% and 20% questions. I figured it out almost immediately. I've come to understand that the clue is usually in the question.

[@qweasdzxcname]

for me these were much easier than the last one. i guess everyone is different.

[@alisdairmckenzie]

The host is always reminding the contestants that the questions are about logic - not general knowledge or trivia. They are symbolic and usually about language. Most of the time, people jump into trying to work out the answer and just confuse themselves. On the last one I was all ready - I imagined a grid with the letters all mapped out and follow it around doing goodness knows what. Then I sat back and saw the arrows were pointing in the four different directions - First one S then W then.... I just shouted out 'sweetness' - I guess you just say what you see. As others have pointed out - clues are given a lot of the time in the question itself. In the 35% question, which I really liked, I could see that all the words were anagrams of each other so nothing stood out as incorrect. The question says ' there;s only ONE thing you need to do... so MOVE IT. Move one thing and bang there it was - moving one letter once did not rearrange Filets but the other three did. Anyway. Fun show - I like playing it at home, with my paper and pencil to jot down answers.

[@beng4186]

There's a little bit of general knowledge.. The words for FN SE JR and S? are not used outside the US.

[@countys32]

Yeah, when you're at home watching it on KZbin it may seem easy, pausing and taking your time no bright lights no camera rolling no pressure from anyone, under those circumstances it may seem easy but it's a whole different thing to be there doing it.

[@cherylcampbell9369]

Patton gave them the answer to the first one when he said "bat-atorium". This is starting out stupidly.

[@ElizabethBrendaLo]

The 1% question in the latter game wasn't that obscure, though it did require some wit. It was the 1% question in the earlier game that was UTTERLY MEMORABLE!!!!!

[@serenakoleno9338]

The first show was fun. Especially when I got the one with the animals including tiger correct, but for the wrong reason 😂. I also got the 1 % answer right.😊😊❤❤ The bookworm one stumped me, even after they said the answer 😂. Shame on me, I read tons of books 😅

[@truthunmasked126]

1:00:20 is wrong . The correct answer is C. Imagine you're facing a mirror. The image you see is like looking at yourself from behind. Your left side is still your left side, and your right side is still your right side. It's just that you're seeing yourself from a perspective you normally don't experience.

[@alisdairmckenzie]

It's not wrong it's just the wording - which is a bit tricky. If the girl stands in front of a mirror - her reflection in it would be A - definitely. I also thought so and so I tried it myself and of course It's what I see reflected. It's as you put it - it's about what perspective you are taking when looking at it. There is a trick to it - Take the main image and put one of images A B or C next to it - then close it ( as if it were a book). Notice which of the 3 images perfectly matches with it. Do it with B and C and the arm carrying the sunflower is wrong - only A fits.

[@truthunmasked126]

@@alisdairmckenzie okay i actually did some research and turns out i was wrong, the answer is correct..but still cant fathom this whole concept

[@davidmarchant9386]

​@@truthunmasked126just stand in front of a mirror with something in your hand like in the pic

[@callowclay3021]

You're right that left is left, and right is right. The trick of the question is that we have to view things from HER perspective, which means turning around and flipping everything over

[@berkeersoy6965]

First time ever getting the 1% question in either the uk or US show! Feels good ahah

[@alexanderkaiser89]

Easy to see this is an American quiz. How are all of the questions so easy?

[@stevehall4141]

A European is an arrogant douche?! Whaaaaaaa?!

[@puggleski6097]

Nice. Primary and solid colours are a tell though.

[@Bexx-f8s]

I thought the sign one was number of sides to the order they were in but still had it right 😂

[@PetroicaRodinogaster264]

I wonder if the 3 that got the 1st question wrong will be voting on 4 Nov? Can they even write.

[@ChengChloe707]

brooo i’m 14 and i got all of them right

[@Chavi27]

1:20:36 are those Brain power lyrics?

[@qweasdzxcname]

i would probably get to the floor, but i could never think of question mark. and i tried to solve it. no wonder its the 1% question.

[@Purple_roz]

I can’t find the app!?

[@richardhernandez4490]

I actually got the 1% question right, but it took me a while.

[@ElizabethBrendaLo]

You're probably smarter than me LOL. I took a break of like 10 mins and even then still couldn't make any sense hahaha.

[@cheerTILidie]

Why is volume 1 front cover facing volume 2?

[@Myrvold]

@@cheerTILidie If you look at the picture, and you take out book one to read it, the front of book 1 is towards the right - or the back of book 2 if you like.

[@Zakato01]

I indeed use directions and it was SWEETNESS

[@c_note5186]

28:50 there is NO WAY 30% of the us population get this right… americans are you that stupid?? Might be the easiest

[@thomasstahlmecke9154]

The clock question solved my mum much easier. If 10+5=3, so 11+4 is also 3, because the 15 is the 3. She dint even think about a clock.

[@pedrohenriquecarneiro3386]

31:27 "So be it", Alan's catchphrase in the episode where Charlies girlfriend tries to curse him

[@jacquelinehelgaJohnson-V-ho9ve]

Yeah, i GOT 1% of the QUESTIONS right Too !!

[@Maroonbiscuit]

Doesn’t the bookworm question depend on which way they are placed on the shelf?

[@KaranRaina95]

The volume number is always on the back, which means the front cover is at right ( it's not a manga)

[@JeffreyMorgan-q7s]

First guys sharp

[@CrazyInWeston]

I've watched 3 series of this gameshow as the UK version and while the 1% question in the first game had me stumped, the 1% question in the second was the easiest one I've ever seen! And the FN SE JR S? Question in the 2nd game actually has 2 answers. F to N is seven letters apart, J to R is seven letters apart, SE and S? Could have been the same if using a 7 by 12 by 7 by 12 combo if one were to loop the alphabet. The host says you do not need any trivia to know the answers, but in that one, a non american would need the knowledge of the American schooling system. That itself is trivial.

[@tamasnagy6280]

Omg! I'm from european and can say it in the name of every other eu citizen these questions are for children here 😅😂

[@beng4186]

The host looks like a cross between Jerry Springer and Scott Morrison.

[@DEANYBOY009]

Not to be rude but these questions are easy I got them all right both episodes but still a good watch..

[@James-bak5]

With the first one i got to the point he got got all of them right except the one percent

[@ElizabethBrendaLo]

The 10% question in the latter game had me scratching my head for a bit, what's more there were FIVE options! I thought of something that I knew since I was a little girl and BOOM, things fell into place. Manage to get the answer before time ran out. :)

[@ZhouSensor_ZXZ]

Please put some ribbons during the final celebration, otherwise the scene will look too awkward.😅😅😅

[@ElizabethBrendaLo]

Oh my, I fell into the trap of the 10% qn :P

[@ericosg]

Handsome, fit and smart. Damn.

[@ericsteins4210]

❤I don't understand the answer to the 10% question. The question asked about the bookworm eating through all 10 volumes from cover to cover. How is it not 20 inches when he's eating from the front or volume 1 to back of volume 10 and each one is 2 inches thick? 2 inches x 10 is 20. I don't understand how it's 16. Please explain. Even after they tried to explain it, I still didn't get it

[@ElizabethBrendaLo]

Yup, 20 inches was also my answer. You see, the front of volume 1 is actually touching volume 2, NOT the end of the stack. Similarly, the back of volume 10 is actually touching volume 9, NOT the other end of the stack. 20 inches would have been correct if the volumes had been arranged with Volume 1 in the extreme right and Volume 10 on the extreme left. Sadly, they were arranged the other way round which means the worm only ate through the thickness of *EIGHT* volumes.

[@SharpCookie]

I think the tricky part to this one is remembering the front cover of a book is on the right side of the spine and the back cover of a book is on the left side of the spine. Because we read left to right, it’s easy to make an error and quickly think the front cover must be on the left side, and the back cover on the right side. Hope that helps!

[@ElizabethBrendaLo]

@@SharpCookie you explained it almost perfectly! I was trying my best to explain it but I think my choice of words wasn't the best.

[@ieunspecified7053]

PUT THE REST ON BLACK 🗣🔥 also some countries read books backwards so the back cover is the front cover and vice versa

[@ElizabethBrendaLo]

I got the first one right but somehow the answer to the second one eluded me. Would have been kicked out that early. :P

[@SmilyMmn]

Till the 3rd questions I'm going alright...lemme check next question... anyway, I'm gaining knowledge that makes my brain keeps working other than some videos just for fun

[@lexeiy1730]

This is a fantastic game...👍🏿

[@ElizabethBrendaLo]

Ain't surprised that only two missed the 50% question, it took me less than five seconds to get the answer

[@PFrules]

Man. These questions are so easy.

[@davissebastian9129]

The bookworm question was kind of tricky

[@Pete856]

How was the time in LA a 5% question? They just told you the difference is normal 3 hours but daylight savings moves the clock forward an hour at 2am local time, 3+1=4, so if it's 4am in NY it must be midnight in LA, not too hard at all.

[@ElizabethBrendaLo]

Oh no, I answered 1 am.

[@davidmarchant9386]

People rush answers without understanding the questions and over confidence they want to look smart by answering first and sit back and look at the others

[@realtorgirl1621]

I could not understand how he came up with the answer to the 1% question. Racking my brain.

[@davidmarchant9386]

Because it's asking you to spell it out, everything is is spelt for you already. The clues are there if you listen to what's being said

[@Truthseeker6859]

Incredibly easy questions... maybe Americans are not too smart...

[@serenakoleno9338]

I have to disagree. The one with the traffic signs stumped me. And I am not a dummy. 😊 My gut instinct tried to tell me the one shaped like a house was important. Need to listen to my gut better 😂

[@davidmarchant9386]

I wouldn't say they was all incredibly easy at all. When people claim these things I tend to find they ain't that smart... 90% shouldn't cause too many stumbling blocks but they are couple there what can get you if you not paying attention or your head goes blank

[@ElizabethBrendaLo]

I was doing so well until I got tripped up by the 50% question in the latter game

[@icefishalaska3814]

The 35% questions was a terrible question and the people that got it right guessed.

[@James-bak5]

I got the 1% question on the second one in the time limit first try

[@fojemo1661]

I got both of the 1% questions right wow

[@ElizabethBrendaLo]

[@CoAi4Ever]

I got the 30% answer right but with the wrong reasoning 😅

[@James-bak5]

As a british person i dont think any british people would get the 20% on the second one

[@davidmarchant9386]

Really ? I did far better than you but that might be an age thing idk

[@ЕгорСухарев-ь4х]

It's very similar to 1 against 100, but on the contrary, now the team has to stay against the Audience

Are the statistics (1%, 5%, etc.) real? These are the most basic questions I've ever seen. Highschoolers in Philippines would have no problem answering those questions, no need for the passes. Even elementary kids can correctly answer at least 80-90% of these..
