Worst fake facts uttered by racers

Genius:
I am referring to more of things that are factual (relating to geography), rather than lies that are uttered to throw their competitors off.

Off the top of my head

TAR8 Weaver Family: Claiming Lake Pontchartrain in Louisiana is one of the Great Lakes

TARAus1:

1. One team wondering whether Hong Kong is in Singapore  (Great job! :clap2:)
2. Alana and Mel pre-race interview:

Alana uses her Latvian heritage to explain her pale skin, but Mel interjects, "No you're white because you're Albino and that's a different country." Alana is bemused that her sister thinks albino is a country. "I gave her a map of the world and she said, 'That's not it, Alana, that's not the entire world. Where is the rest of it?" So it seems wise that as a team they've decided to defer anything physical to Mel and "anything that we know is going to be smart or nerdy is definitely going to be Alana," says Mel.

From TAR 8, Leg 2:

Rebecca (of Weaver Family): Where's Washington D.C.? What state is it in? Washington?

Jay33:
I remember plenty of moments like this happening but I wouldn't be able to recall any specifics since my brain tunes them out as soon as I hear them.

Cyzoran:
Switzerland is the first country to have a democracy  - Phil, Season 31
