Since the noun phrase was plural, and the exclaimative (there are) was referring to that, the sentence was valid.

So...You were just proven incorrect once more. Come back again and make yourself look more stupid.
You're still wrong. The noun of that phrase is "one". Which is singular. Making the phrase singular. So it's still "is". Jesus Christ.
