It would be even more interesting to compile a list of the world's most famous people that most of the world's people have not heard of.
My point is that a person can be very famous around the world and still not known by many people. Parochialism doesn't need to be invoked, just math.
- PlugTunin 6y ago10 years ago, Captain Crunch was my next door neighbor. Yes, that Captain Crunch. One time he asked me, in reference to the actor's name being mentioned in the media, "Who's Brad Pitt?". I laughed my ass off, because I decided he was the only person in LA County to have asked that question anytime recently. Incidentally, I guarantee you he has no idea who Diego Maradona is. Crunch also once asked me, 2 days after the election, "Did Obama win?". He was traveling overseas and was "out of the loop". I saved the email and laugh about it to this day. (If you don't know who Crunch is, and you're using this website, that's funny.)
