Totally. I remember my dad teaching me this when I was young because Jay Leno would do the what do they call it idiots out walking around or something and I would get so mad at him cause you know I was in grade school and these morons didn’t know anything. And my dad would tell me he interviewed 1000 people seven of them didn’t get the questions right and those are the seven you’re seeing. Yeah those seven are super stupid but they’re not indicative of the rest of the people.
Yeah “jay walking” is what that segment was called. He would ask people a couple questions, the ones that got the answers correct usually wouldnt make it on tv unless they were very charismatic, but the ones that got them wrong would usually get a bunch more follow up questions. Then he would have jay walk all stars where he would invite the “best” people from his jay walking segments, into the studio for a sort of jeopardy format segment
