that guy is doing misinformation, click-baiting, selective wiki-use per IQ of 50...
here's what wiki says about mental retardation:

"...Intellectual disability... and formerly mental retardation... characterized by significant impairment in
intellectual and adaptive functioning that is first apparent during childhood. Children with intellectual
disabilities typically have an IQ below 70 and deficits in at least two adaptive behaviors that affect everyday
living..."
en.wikipedia.org

IQ scores should only be used within the population of statistical standardization. And, the average IQ in
Columbia will be 100, as such a score is in comparison to others in the Columbian population.

In order to properly compare between countries, the IQ test must sample all countries on an IQ test that meets
agreed upon standards of validity. Since nonverbal IQ tests are considered to reduce or eliminate language
differences between countries, nonverbal IQ tests are considered to be the best measure for comparison.
Academic achievement tests and the SAT are considered to be distinctly different than intelligence tests
(although there is a positive correlation, and should not be used to estimate IQ... per apples to oranges
comparisons and erroneous interpretation/conclusion.
