This is from the French version of a popular American game show. The question asked is “What Orbits the Earth?”

A. The moon
B. The sun
C. Mars
D. Venus
E. Uranus
F. B

What's even funnier is that the majority of the audience got the question wrong too!

wow, i thought france was pretty smart... well at least this audience isn't.

Galileo hates you ALL. I...ARGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

wow... what orbits arond the earth? thats a tough one.

OMFG that is hilarious.

Were they falling over and laughing like frogs in the control room while this was being filmed?

They were implementing the forced sterilization...

that is too sad.

If it wasn't so horrible (read: "how can they be that stupid?"), I'd predict this is heading straight for the top 15.

Hmm, it probably should be heading right up there.

Actually, it is probably more likely that the audience purposefully picked the wrong answer to such an obvious answer. Nice, but no vote due to the "we surrender" tag.

anybody able to speak french and give a literal translation of the question? it has the word gravite in it, which looks an awful lot like gravity. a question about how gravitating bodies effect each other would be a lot less straight forward than one about orbits.

No, that's right: What orbits around the Earth? I'd hate to see Americans tested. Those tags read a bit, I dunno, Youtuberude. I'd say, hey, they might not know that the moon orbits the earth, but heck, at least they're not spending 1,000,000,000,000 in Iraq. Just sayin'.

astronaut orbits the earth....frog ones been there too, right??, ........Was that home boy's girlfriend???

Man, no money, and no friends......C'est la dweeb!

How is this possible?! I don't understand. What year is this?

O' Canada! Ha.....Is there a Russian version of this show?????

sad...

Upvote for the fact that there even was a 2% (probably one guy) that voted for Mars...

Amusing, but no vote due to the "we surrender" tag.

i agree. i'd have voted something stupid too. unless they paid me to vote for the correct answer, obviously.

... This reflects the sad reality of French Television.

In France, we are wondering why we must pay taxes for this sort of crap.
All the competitors for this kind of game are complete idiots or worst. But this emission isn't the place where the dumbest are. Look for "Le Maillon Faible".
As we say here in France, it's a "pearl".
The finest idiots from all over the country are carefully selected in order to produce the shittiest game on earth ...

to answer sineral

graviter sur un orbite = to orbit

Comment hidden because you are ignoring dag.(show it anyway)

That's so sad that in this day and age 56% of the audience thinks the sun orbits around the Earth. I'm depressed now - and Galileo is spinning in his grave.
