I'm 78 and I got 96 answers right. I contest the longest river which is actually the Nile !
Wow that’s brilliant… well done !
Well tell that to the recent research done regarding this.
Agree the Nile is what i think also
You are all wrong ! The longest river is actually found underground and it is almost twice the length of the Amazon and follows almost the same route. If the question had been which surface river is the longest, than yes, the Nile is longest
@@TheFrugalMombot can you cite your source ?
I was going to take the test but the narrator takes so long to read the questions and answers I feared I would be 92 before she got finished.
Any fruit can make wine. Grape is by far the most common
Answer is C
You are right about that. Was wondering about that one too.
EXACTLY... IN AFRICA THEY MAKE WINE WITH BANANAS.
@@PetroniloPocaspulgas I have made wine with bananas. Thing is, you really have to age it at least a year. Otherwise it kind of tastes like smushy old bananas, but after a year of aging that kind of goes away and it is nice. Don’t make wine with coconuts though unless you want to hang out near the bathroom. Coconuts are a natural laxative and it turns out that this property will also make it to your wine. Great gag gift though.
@@waltergraves3273 NICE THAT YOU WERE ABLE TO DO IT WITH BANANAS I'VE TRIED BUT I SUCK AT IT. I WILL DO AS YOU SAID. THANK YOU.
I got 87 right out of the 112. Being a ferocious reader pays off somehow ! Glad to have lived in both; world before and after internet. We used to rely on news, reading various books and encyclopedias like Britannica to stay ahead information-wise. Then boom, internet happened and here we are, all the information a few milliseconds away at the tip of our fingers! Wow! No, I am not 90 something, not even half - 😄😄😄

Can you imagine how many questions of this relatively easy list an American 20 something would have known? Scary isn't it!
@@33rorynoah I'm a 16 year old in Nebraska and we learned most of this stuff in 4th-5th grade. Most Americans that grow up in The U.S. would know this stuff. I also don't really think this is fair since there's a lot of immigrants that come from backgrounds where they couldn't go to school.
Largest river isAmason but the longest is Nile
Absolutely.
I just googled it and the Amazon has a larger volume than the Nile. Maybe that's what they meant
Question about who first colonized America.. unless I misunderstood the question, the first, and continuously occupied colony, was St. Augustine in Florida. It was settled in 1565 by Spain. The English didn't have a permanent settlement until 1607.
France's parcel covered a large area of the USA
What other regions of the US were colonized by Spain? I think the question is not the country to first colonize a region but the US itself, which would be England.
I think Christopher Columbus first "discovered" America, and he was Spanish.
The question was who COLONIZED The U.S.A. 1st = THE British . We Fought the British for OUR INDEPENDENCE which WE have been Celebrating on The 4th of July for 250 YEARS as on 7/4/2024 🇺🇲☝🏻
♥️🇺🇲
90 somewhat😮
The most important thing to know is that Africa is not a country; it's in fact a continent of 54 countries that are diverse culturally and geographically. It's so diverse because Africa is really, really big - about as big as the combined landmasses of China, the United States, India, Japan and much of Europe put together.
I got 79 right I am 92 years old 😘

Great🎉
Historically there are only 4 oceans and there are other contentious answers
The longest river in the world is Nile river
well Done @giselerobert2070 ! The pop culture ones were my worst category ha ha! Godmother to Elton John's children?! 🥺
@bobsaturday4273 Thanks it seems like some of these answers are questionable. 🤔
Quite a few of these questions are not general knowledge
Why do you say that? I learned these in 7th grade and I know from my 7th grade studies that the longest river is the Nile, NOT the Amazon. So the answer given for this question by the narrator is WRONG. I got 111 correct, missing 1.
I think most of these questions are indeed general knowledge. I found the very easy.
Not only you are from year sevnth grade

Longest river is not Amazon,it's Nile. Check your facts
Who ever put this quiz together needed to check their facts the Nile is the longest river not the Amazon
Agree
It is the Amazon. Most recent
True the nile+,the amazone is the biggest qua volume.
Yea
This was a trivia test… not an intelligence test.
Thank you! I thought it was a Jeopardy spinoff!
Definitely!
Well, to be fair, it didn't claim to be an intelligence test but a test of general knowledge. I was quite shocked at first by how badly I did... then rather pleased! P.S. I'm fairly sure the "Black Death" started in the far east, and spread westwards to Europe. I must check it out!
But many of the answers to said questions are historical and Literary Wrong. Giving false information.
No Longer making the Fun not knowledgeable info to keep in anyone’s head. 😑
Not trivia but general knowledge, the first step in Bloom's taxonomy. No wonder Americans seem so uniformed as compared to other countries.

1. The Nile River
The longest river in the world is different, depending on who you ask. Is it the Nile in Africa or the Amazon in South America? They're comparable in length, but in 2009, a study in the International Journal of Digital Earth determined the Nile to be a bit longer at 4,132 miles (6,650 kilometers). The Nile also is recognized by the Guinness World Records as the world's longest river. The Nile has two major tributaries - the White Nile and the Blue Nile, which meet up in Khartoum, the capital of Sudan. The Nile drains an area of 1,293,056 square miles (3,349,000 square kilometers) of Sudan, Ethiopia, Egypt, Uganda, Tanzania, Kenya, Rwanda, Burundi, Eritrea and Democratic Republic of the Congo, before emptying into the Mediterranean Sea.
2. The Amazon River
The Amazon River flows through Peru, Colombia and Brazil. Although the Nile is officially the longest river in the world, many disagree with that assessment and insist the Amazon is longer. Certainly, it's the world's largest river based on the enormous volume of water it deposits into the Atlantic Ocean every day; it has a greater output of fresh water than the next seven largest rivers combined. It also has the largest drainage area - 2,400,000 square miles (6,300,000 square kilometers) - which occupies almost 40 percent of the entire continent of South America. Be that as it may, most researchers agree that it is only 4,000 miles (6,500 kilometers) long compared with the Nile's 4,132 miles (6,650 kilometers). science.howstuffworks.com/environmental/earth/geophysics/9-longest-rivers-in-world.htm

Neil Armstrong was not the first man to set foot on the moon. It was the guy that set up the camera on the moon.

Does it really matter.
@@joyfurden8375
Yes, it does if, your taking a geography test in the 6th grade, you don't want that on your permanent record! 😂
You are correct.
Got 92 correct. Mostly missed pop culture. Guess that’s because I’m in my 70s.
The Encyclopedia Britannica gives the length of the Nile as 6,650 kilometers (4,132 miles), to 6,400 kilometers (3,977 miles) for the Amazon.
And it’s wrong because it hasn’t updated to the recent research - modern research methods using advanced measuring equipment. Researchers now say that the Amazon is the largest river by volume as well as by length. The Amazon River is 65 miles (105 kilometers) longer than the Nile. The Amazon River is 4,225 miles (6,800 kilometers) long whereas the Nile is 4132 miles (6650 kilometers) in length.

121 right. Nile is the longest river Columbus was credited as the discoverer of America but actually the Vikings landed in North America 500 years earlier
Columbus was a liar 😂
No. Amazon is longer according to recent research
Good point about the Vikings, if it's true. "General Knowledge" changes over time - I think I was taught about Columbus's achievement when I was a child (1950s), and only heard about the Vikings later.
There were only 112 questions.
You got 121 right on 112 questions? You are not only smart but a magician too!

True. Nile has a length of 6650 km while Amazon comes second with it's length being 6400 km! Big difference!!!

Columbus never visited America. He only reached islands in the Caribbean and Central and South America.
Which are, afaik, counted as being part of the continent America. But he didn't claim having discovered America anyway, he was convinced to have been in India, China and Japan (he did several trips). *That's* ridiculous, or, imho, funny :-)
I think the answer means America as in 'the whole continent' .. not 'north or south'
@@ulrikof.2486the Americas
He visited Bahamas on his first voyage and that's in the continent of North America. You're talking about the United States of America which is a country not a continent.
Well I don't know how he discovered my island because there were people living there cribs and awake Indians
I was happy to get 83 correct at the age of 69, I attribute it to my ability to recall things from over the years. This was more of a knowledge test rather than a intelligence test. 🤷♀️
Q51 is ridiculous. Kilometer means literally 1000 meters, as kilo is the number-prefix meaning thousand. Like in kilogram, kilowatts, kilojoule/kilocalories, etc. Only some people from the US would not know that, I guess.

94 right - technically, caviar is not made "from" sturgeon. It is made "by" sturgeon. You can chop up a sturgeon six ways from Sunday and still not create its eggs. You can't make an omelet out of a chicken either.

Q. 69 It is obscure knowledge of knowing Michael Jackson's middle name.

And the chooses was Joe or Joseph really
I knew it! (Insert a smug looking emoji). No, no. I am just kidding-trying to add some humor. I guessed it because his dad’s name was Joseph, not because I actually knew it.
When in doubt you can always try what sounds best together. People seldom are given names that are difficult to pronounce one after the other, unless they have four or more names.

Also is skin considered IN the body or ON the body? Perhaps reword to read “What is the human body’s largest organ?”.
The skin is the largest organ. Anyone who has studied anatomy knows this.

questions related to astrology seem out of place for a quiz that purports to test IQ - or common knowledge. Only a guess but I believe fewer than 20% of American and European population pay any attention at all to astrology. Mostly because Astrology is not a serious field of study - mysticism and lore hold very little appeal to the people of a culture that relies heavily upon science, mathematics, history and communications and not very much attention or invested value in fantasy and fiction - with the exception of literary fiction.
The questions were not pertaining to astrology; they were about astronomy. Not the same animal. 🙄👎

Sailing the 7 seas 🤗
@@teleriferchnyfain All the trips were on submarines including one cruise of “20,000 leagues.” (Smiley face here)
The South Pacific and the North Pacific are the same ocean, same with Atlantic. It’s five oceans seven continents.
@@TheFrugalMombot I understand your point. I read something once about the Sargasso Sea in the “South Atlantic” when it’s actually in the southern (more or less) North Atlantic. The north and south Atlantic and Pacific oceans are separately labeled on large charts. They are also considered different oceans in nautical texts and tables as well as in literature. Kinda like Europe and Asia being considered two separate continents when they are actually the one land mass of Eurasia. There’s been some controversy about Australia being a continent but I agree with you that, by definition, it’s a continent.
Agree!
Thanks
I got 101 correct.
Congratulations!
Good job!
This made me feel so good about myself! SCHOOL showed I’m above average intelligence but I specialized in the arts - so…..Getting science and history questions made me feel like I didn’t evolve into a BOX
Thank goodness I didn't completely shame myself on this one. I missed 23, so that's 89 right answers. How well do you think todays high school student would do on this? Heck, from what I've been seeing how would collage students do? Heaven help us, they didn't just fall through the cracks, they were thrown into the grand canyon.
In my 50s and scored 86
I score 90 or 91 if the longest river I still think is the Nile that would make it 91 😅
There are videos where a couple guys go around asking late teens to mid 20s questions. Some are just public and others are college students. They're hard to find sometimes but when you do, there are videos after videos. No one went through the cracks and no one threw them in a canyon. But somehow, they found a canyon to jump in not knowing it was a canyon, literally because they don't know what a canyon is.
I'm in high school I got 99 right😓☝️
I'm 64 and I got 100 correct. When I was 14, I probably would've gotten 99.
I got 85 right but it’s 86 if the Nile is the longest. I just checked and the Amazon River is 4,225 miles long or 6,800 km in length. The Nile River is 4,130 miles long or 6,65 km in length. That’s a difference of only 95 miles.
I feel so smart now 😂 I got so many right! I’m honestly surprised
The longest River in world is River Nile. My Geography Teacher made us to copy it 100 times & memorized it for final exam in 1979. Please check your fact. Thank you!
So i guess they don’t update research and that the earth doesn’t change in 50 years? Recent research indicates that the Amazon is 95 miles longer than the Nile
what research are you talking about? What happened to your basic Geography? You don't update or upgrade Natural existence. Are you among the so called researchers? Can you forward me a copy of the articles, where you got your research information? Thank you!
@@KindnessMelchlsalem Hello. Your Geography teacher obviously did a good job of making sure you would always remember what you'd been taught. But I was a teacher too, and I know I sometimes got things wrong! Besides, when we think about it, we realise that nature does change. For instance, our planet has been through Ice Ages and much hotter periods; even the shape of countries has changed - where I live now, in eastern England, our sandy cliffs are always collapsing as they are much softer than the granite cliffs of Cornwall in the south-west. Even in Cornwall, I remember finding one spring that a grassy hollow where I'd picnicked the year before had collapsed into the sea. Some bits get smaller, some bigger - and I don't only mean bits of me!
@@marysouthwell5270 So are saying that River Nile is the Longest or Amazon?
@@TheFrugalMombot 1. The Nile River
The longest river in the world is different, depending on who you ask. Is it the Nile in Africa or the Amazon in South America? They're comparable in length, but in 2009, a study in the International Journal of Digital Earth determined the Nile to be a bit longer at 4,132 miles (6,650 kilometers). The Nile also is recognized by the Guinness World Records as the world's longest river. The Nile has two major tributaries - the White Nile and the Blue Nile, which meet up in Khartoum, the capital of Sudan. The Nile drains an area of 1,293,056 square miles (3,349,000 square kilometers) of Sudan, Ethiopia, Egypt, Uganda, Tanzania, Kenya, Rwanda, Burundi, Eritrea and Democratic Republic of the Congo, before emptying into the Mediterranean Sea.
2. The Amazon River
The Amazon River flows through Peru, Colombia and Brazil. Although the Nile is officially the longest river in the world, many disagree with that assessment and insist the Amazon is longer. Certainly, it's the world's largest river based on the enormous volume of water it deposits into the Atlantic Ocean every day; it has a greater output of fresh water than the next seven largest rivers combined. It also has the largest drainage area - 2,400,000 square miles (6,300,000 square kilometers) - which occupies almost 40 percent of the entire continent of South America. Be that as it may, most researchers agree that it is only 4,000 miles (6,500 kilometers) long compared with the Nile's 4,132 miles (6,650 kilometers).
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤Thank you for sharing ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
That was a pretty good quiz, with a great range of easy, medium, and difficult questions. I know that you have already been called out on the Nile vs Amazon River, so I'll just say that I got that one correct with NILE.
No you got it wrong. Check the most recent research that has the amazon at 95 miles longer than the nile
Answered right 99. Majority question are embarrassing easy. Caviar - surgeon- black, salmon-red fish eggs
I got 98 right. Thanks for creating and posting the quiz.
I got 103 correct. The ones I couldn’t answer concerned questions about modern music and who is the godmother of Elton Johns kids. But all in all not a bad score.
However, I found most of the questions very easy and only had a very few lucky guesses.
Q. 33 "America" is *not* a continent.
Should be North America and/or South America both of which are continents. The Bahamas which Columbus did visit are in North America. You're talking about the United States of America which is a country not a continent.
I've got most of them right
Bad "ai" generated krap
This is a basic trivia quiz. No difficult questions at all. I managed a full house.
I have a major issue with the Amazon being the longest river. The Nile is longer. The Nile is 6650km and the Amazon is 6400km
Correction: the longest river in the world is nile river, while amazon river is the widest river in the world.
This is no longer true with modern research methods using advanced measuring equipment. Researchers now say that the Amazon is the largest river by volume as well as by length. The Amazon River is 65 miles (105 kilometers) longer than the Nile. The Amazon River is 4,225 miles (6,800 kilometers) long whereas the Nile is 4132 miles (6650 kilometers) in length.
Wow! These answers are crazy.
Perfect Iam very intelligent 👏
Thank you for this program
I got 77 right out of 112. Many of these facts I didn’t know. I’m 38.
I got 94 questions right. I am originally from Albania but I live in PA
I like this quiz
#33 New research into the strain of Yrsinia pestis which started The Black Death shows that it STARTED in Europe, but went on to engulf Asia, as well as North Africa, so it wasn't just a European phenomena.
These are questions that most people don't study 🤔
I got 87 right - considering I had a really hard day at work today , I'm gonna take that and call it a win
I got 101 correct.
Most before the options were even said.
This was child’s play.
Only got around 10 wrong I really enjoyed that 🙏🏻
