90 out of 100 correct. Not too bad for a 70yr old 🧓.Love doing these to keep my mind sharp.
I'd love to see a college kid take this quiz......it would make a GREAT UA-cam vid :)
He actually said 9 on #64 and the answer was 8.
I also noticed that!!
Correct
He's a goof
Yes he did
Noticed that!
I was taught that 'big ben' was the name of the bell in the clock and the tower is the 'Elizabeth tower'.
It is
Lake Geneva is a town in Wisconsin.
You are correct
@@jogeraghty4774 How Long is a Chinese name.
Who cares? Not I. @@glennso47
I'm in my 70s and got 80/100. Count me out when it comes to sports and movies..
You did better than me. 77/100
I scored 70, which is alright for a 90 year woman😊
Yes. Very good
I scored 75 and I'm 87.
Yes, it's a shame that you are actually a 27 year old bloke.
I did not realise I was supposed to count. So I didn't. As I recall it may have been a dozen or so.
@@robertbradfield6243At the youth age of 77, I scored only an 81
To be able to answer the questions correctly requires a very good memory and to have been widely ready and experienced.
A high IQ need not necessarily be a requirement.
High IQ is not requiered...
But a good, selektive memory is useful... 🤔🤨🧐👍
Actually the clock tower in London is not called big ben, big ben is the name of the bell in the clock tower, the tower itself is calld the Elizabeth clock tower
Good to know -- thanks
It is right. The big ben is the name of the bell in the clock tower.
Well, of course. What do Americans know? Their test masters are all from the USA,
Not so?.
Good for you...Most people do not know that!
A very nice tid bit... brilliant! Thank you
I'm 82 and got 94 right! (educated, well-read, and well-traveled)
I'm curious to know which 6 you missed AND how many of the 94 were lucky guesses!
That said, good job!
I'm 85 and got 97. (same provenance, but not to well versed in Norse mythology)
-You can't call a quiz tough when at least two questions contained the answer in itself = A Christmas Carol for something that took place on Christmas eve or that the book The Great Gatsby had Jay Gatsby as its protagonist. And that the main ingredient of Kung Poo chicken was chicken came as no surprise.
Yes, I noticed those.
Warlich? How about the main ingredient in pork fried rice or chicken chowmein?
...book by the cover ??
see i`ve never had Kung po, all I know is it has peanuts in it, but I was wondering does it have tofu? lol, but I guessed right.
If we are judging high IQs by these quizzes, we are in serious trouble,
Lol. People are dumbing up because if tv and internet.
85
This country already is in serious
Ya. I think these are simple mind exercises for the aging ... or injured.
Very true
John Winston Lennon at birth and throughout most of his life. Trick question
I thought so, also.
John changed his second name once he was married to that doppelganger.
Yeah, Ono was his wife... not his name.
Now Robert, be nice ... you might not've taken a fancy to Ono, but remember John loved her. 'tsgotta count for something don'tcha think?
Absolutely. If he took his wife's name as an adult does that really qualify as part of his middle name? Generally in Western culture formal names are bestowed at birth by parents. "Nick names" are acquired later in life but they are not considered formal.
I got 100/100. I only had to take the quiz twice to get it.😂
.😅
You devil!
85 and I'm 80. Don't know rock music and haven't studied geography since the 1960s. Haven't kept up with all the changes since then.
70
REALLY!!! It seems to change exponentially, as well. If I had to write in the names of the countries on a globe of the world outlining ALL the present day countries, I would FAIL miserably. I know there's 7 continents but the countries and all the cities there in, are so vastly different from what we learned in the 60s... I'm grateful for the library of knowledge my brain contains; sadly though (sort of), I'm highly selective of what I add to it. Too much unnecessary clutter! Superfluous jibber don't you think
Sort of similar to all the vehicles on today's highways: If I can't see the name on it as it passes, I've pretty much no idea what it is!
Some were so easy, and some were difficult
Good quiz ... I scored 92/100 ... 4 wrong in each half.
a few clarifications:
question 59 - The Arabian Desert is actually larger than the Gobi Desert but is considered part of the Sahara, hence the Gobi is considered the largest desert in Asia.
question 81 - Big Ben refers to the bell inside the tower, which is called The Elizabeth Tower
The Question was for the largest in Asia...so Gobi is correct.
@@johntatum1951 I agree that Gobi is the correct answer. I am just pointing out that some people say the Arabian Desert is the correct answer. Geography experts consider the Arabian Desert, which is in Asia, (mostly in Saudi Arabia) and larger than the Gobi, to be a part of the Sahara Desert, not a desert in its own right, and therefore Gobi is considered the largest. FYI, Gobi in Mongolian means desert, so to say Gobi Desert is redundant.
@@johntatum1951where exactly do you Believe Arabs are from? From what continent are the Arabic peoples?
Not really a great quiz; there were several ambiguous answers. Sometimes the test taker is smarter than the test maker which kind of makes the whole exercise pointless.
The Arabian Desert is in Arabia and is not in Africa where the Sahara is
I got 98 questions right and only 2 wrong out of a 100. I sometimes can't remember things I put down. But my long term memory is extraordinary!👩🏽👵🏽
There were four wrongs.
Very pleased with myself! 90/100
On question 35, the name is pronounced like Ee-ah-go. I know it looks strange. But that's a capital i not an l.
It's EYE-ah-go
Beat me to it! All he had to do is "LOOK AT HIS KEYBOARD" to see that it is a capital "I" and not "L".
Also, as the other commenter said, it is pronounced "eye" and not "Ee".
I got 5 wrong but I agree a lot of the questions were easy but fun though when you can't sleep at 3o clock in the morning
Yes Liz! 0'dark thirty! Excellent time to do these I totally agree
I came here to say Big Ben is the name of the bell. The tower in which it’s housed is actually called Elizabeth Tower but I see others have pointed that out already
Very Correct
💢💢On #64, the screen showed the correct "x=8" but the test master said "x=9!"💢💢
The test master made a mistake. Could you not tell? Poor Fritz.
Ja Fritz, sehr gut! Ich hatte das auch gesehen. He also pronounced Iago's name wrong (said Lago!) And a couple of Norwegian words incorrectly (I had trouble with them, also) However, x=9 was his biggest mistake and catching that shows you know the right answer. Bottom line-- 95 out of 100 questions & answers read correctly in succession earns an A- in my opinion UND, Fritz, du hast auch sehr gut gemacht!
Robert... Robert...Robert... ease up buddy! You're coming off like a fellow German (antagonistic) this is all for fun here. Maybe even educational!
Got all. right. Except Eight. Thank. God
Well done 👍🏻
At least three of your answers are WRONG!
Would you pls tell me what you think the right answers are
Name them please

75 points is not bad for a Filipino quiz-taker
I lost count but I think I got 79 out of 100. I was cooking dinner & doing dishes while doing the quiz. Not too bad for 69 year old grandma. I don't think my 31 year old son could do better.
I counted the questions I got wrong, easier
87/100. Great quiz.

Good quiz - not too difficult for an 84 year old.
I now know we live in an idiocracy. These aren't "genius" questions.
I scored 83 points. Please, if you're going to make a quiz video, make sure you give results at the end for levels of scores.
I got 91 Correct and 9 wrong.

90 out of 100 is accepable
Thank you Don McLean I knew #67
I was able to get 70 correct answers.
The depression was not in the 20s it was in the 30s it followed the 1929 market crash next question the tower in London is not big Ben it is the Elizabeth tower which is just renamed big Ben is the bell
@@squirellmaster1 it began in 1930 when FDR and the gov began controlling things. The market had almost totally recovered before FDR stepped in.
Exactly.. the crash was very late in 1929, October I believe. The depression began in the 30's in fact more toward the middle of it. Lotta people don't know the cause but it was because 90% margin buying was allowed with no other restrictions. Joe Kennedy made a fortune in the market he shorted everything. I was born in 42 and remember Dad really struggling to find decent work (he never served because he already had 2 kids).
I remembered that the crash happened in 1929...so I just "assumed" that's when the depression started. Thanks for the clarification 😊.

Dude, you need to brush up on you pronunciations.
The worst was pronouncing Iago as Lago.
Got 98 right. Two were guesses. 78 yrs old
👍🏻👍🏻
Amazing. I'm 81 but didn't come remotely close to that. Not well versed regarding ancient knowledge just was never into it. Hated history.
I got 79. Not great! I’m 75, so I scored more than my age. I’m pleased enough with that! 👍🤪
I’m 86and score 83 Not into rock music!

84/100 OK I guess
Thanks Dave, I miss you, good quizzes, keep up the business

Amazing 🤩
95/100
82/100. A 50 year old with a good memory. I wasn't too keen on heavy metal though.
92-100 correct, to be fair a lot were from deduction, would be better or harder if they mixed as some had obvious 2 wrong answers. Big ben is the bell not the clock tower, another brick in the wall PTII, but this couldn`t possibly constitute towards IQ lol, enjoyable though.
90/100
got 88, good quiz.
Got 94/100
Got all right except Eight
done good for 75 got 94
Awesome 👏🏻
94%
Quiz Time, just a free Spanish lesson here re. Q about Mexico's currency: choice #1 is KATE-sahl, named after a beautiful wild parrot down there. In 14, blood doesn't clot normally. Re. 17, 'nh' in Portuguese (choice 1) is equal to the "en-yay' in pina colada, and 'gn' in Italian and French.
In reference to #38, if I remember correctly from one of my favorite old movies, Leonidas was the Greek general in the Battle of Thermopilae. In #64, you said #9, but gave the correct answer of 8.
In #97, the front part of a boat/ship rhymes with 'now', and in 98, #3 is BRIZ-b'n, rather than 'bane'.
I guess it depends on what you classify as "great", as I got only 78 right.
I enjoyed this
88 not bad for someone who is 82
88 would be more apt
It was great… fail a few. Thank you.
I scored 86 - good quiz thanks :)
"Lago" in Othello by Shakespeare? Ha-ha-ha!
I am 65. I got 90 correct!😂. I’m tickled!
83 out of 100
