This school history teacher was brought back for a second chance and once again he flunked out. He missed a 5th grade history question which was his major in college. I was watching this in amazement and just thinking how the fuck could this guy have a job teaching kids. Do they just hand out college degrees to anybody. When he gets back to his job, how can he not be the laughing stock of his school to flunk out on the show twice.
The school super should say we no longer need you teaching here, lolllllllllllll.

You cannot compare something you learned in 5th grade to the specialized and more recent learnings that someone has learned after completing college. Some of the things that they ask on that show are real obscure and stuff I remember being taught in 5th grade but I can't remember it cause it has no value to be known or to replace things that I learned more recently.
Also thinking of an answer right on the spot is difficult. I have experienced times where I knew the answer for something and couldn't come up with it at the time but hours later I could remember.

First off your not a teacher so you answering a question is entirely differnt from a person who went to school for history and now teaches history. If the question was outside his field of study, then yes you can have a brain fart and not remember things, but to not know something you are teaching, thats just not acceptable.

the question was who was the first chief justice on the supreme court and the answer was john jay. The teacher answered john marshall.
I would think a teacher that teaches this subject would know the answer to this question, considering its not some obscure question like what was the first chief justices birthday or his dogs name.

in fact I think most of these questions are random facts that your average joe might not know. Sure if they ask you who is the first president of the US or whatever you should know, but stuff you learn in 5th grade is like very factual, or can be.
I agree with jpero, but who is to say that question isnt very easy for him.
i wouldhave no idea on that answer

Crus, yes to the average person that question would be tough because its been so long ago. But a teacher who is actually teaching his kids this subject should know the answer, especially consideringthey didnt ask him who the 10th chief justice was, they asked who the first which i would think would be one of the important facts a history teacher would remember.
Some of the questions i cant remember until i hear the answer again, but i certainly am not gonna miss a question in my field of study nor would i think you would from whatever job you are employed at right now.

I remember this one lady whose $250k question was "How many continents are on Earth...." and she quit because she didn't know. I'm pretty sure she as also a teacher.

Fish, thats what am talking about. You have to nail the questions that you have studied about or are your job.
