In "Did You Know" I thought it was a very interesting clip to watch. It showed me that the United States is not as technologically advanced as I thought. The fact that so many more people in other countries are growing so much faster than us, was definitely an eye opener.
It was also somewhat disturbing that so many other countries are so much more advanced than us. The fact that 25% of India's population is smarter than us was definitely weird to see. Even though you always hear that the United States is behind the times with other countries, it was just weird to see the statistics. It was also weird to see that people who are starting a four year institution will actually be behind, technologically, when they reach their third year than they would be their first year.

The precise statement is "The 25% of India's population with the highest IQ's is... ... GREATER than the total population of the United States." This is the same statement" The 25% of India's population with brown hair is ... GREATER than the total population of the United States. That is because the population of India is more than 4 times the population of the United States.
