@@urszulamichalczuk8688 I Goggled this, &, as I learned in school, Sklodowski was merely her maiden name. Her first name was Maria. She never went by the hyphenated married-maiden name & chose to go by Marie Currie after marrying Pierre Curie.
Sorry didn’t mean anything derogatory… in France and I am French she is world known as Marie Curie … incredible woman who won two Nobel prizes… is now buried in the PANTHEON in Paris in a special coffin against radiations. She was a great scientist and is admired for her work. Sorry… didn’t mean to make you angry…
I'm not going to watch the video again to take inventory, but I would bet that American figures don't make up 50% of this list. Proportionally, yes....more Americans than anyone else. But less face it, this world actually is America and everyone else.
Wow! I got 50 or 51, better than I expected. Didn't recognize Catherine the Great, Marie Antoinette and a couple more people. And for some reason, I thought that young Charlie Chaplin was Francis Scott Fitzgerald :) St Peter of is, of course, a Rubens painting.
That was lots of fun. I got about 70% and want to learn about the ones I didn't know from their pictures, but knew who they were. About five people I've never heard of. Thanks
But she was married to a Frenchman, Marie is a French version of her name, and Curie is a French name, how could it be pronounced in Polish? It's like Chopin, his father was French, he lived in France, how other way to pronounce his name? Would it be something like Tchôpin?
Most people think that Rosa Parks refused to sit in the colored (black) section of the bus, that is not so. What happened that day? She finished work, paid her fare and got on the bus. She walked to the line on the floor she, as a colored person, was to sit behind and did so. As stops were made the "White" only section filled up and the bus driver told Rosa to move farther back in the bus giving up her seat to a white man. That, she refused to do. I am in no way diminishing her stand that day my intent is just to clarify that she actually broke no segregated seating on buses law that day. She was arrested for disorderly conduct and that charge was eventually dismissed. Than the boycott of the transit system by black people, the NAACP and their supporters started bringing segregated seating on the transit system to an end.

It was fun! I only got 25, but we hardly ever saw pix of ancient types/politicians when I was young. As a 77 yo Englishwoman, I'm quite pleased with result.. Thanks for the quiz. xxx
Mark Twain is the pen name of Samuel Clemens of Hannibal, Missouri. We had to read Tom Sawyer & Huckleberry Finn in high school, but I loved all 3 of the Tom Sawer books & wish Twain/Clemens had written more of the series!
I enjoyed the quiz and hope you submit others similar to it but, we have NO idea what Saint Peter looked like AND he certainly wasn't a white guy! That was a bad choice to include when there are SO many other historical figures that could have been featured.
"we have NO idea what Saint Peter looked like AND he certainly wasn't a white guy!" Curious here. If we don't know what he looked like then how can he certainly not be a white guy? How do we/you know for certain he wasn't?
Пётр I Алексеевич, Cristoforo Colombo, Екатери́на II Алексе́евна, Чингис Хаан, כיפא, not speaking of the terrible mispronuntiation of nearly all non-english name (curiously, Marie Curie is the only correctly pronounced ... kkkkkk), and NOBODY ELSE is complaining, because ... WHO CARES? Regular students all know that Peter the great was Russian, Genghis Khan mongol, Saint Peter Jew, Marie Curie was Polish, etc. etc. Only the Polishes here are pain-in-the asses complaining of a thing nobody doubted ...
this video was really well put together, thanks for all the effort! but honestly, i feel like some of the historical figures included are a bit too obscure for the average viewer. it might be more engaging if there were a mix of well-known figures too.
I am happy with the number of correct answers I achieved. It would have been a bit of a laugh if a portrait appeared as a circle with a series of dots describing a triangle underneath which was a straight horizontla line - representing a mouth - had been included.
I only got 18 correct. But that's because a lot of them were before my time. Like Charles Darwin, the queens, Madame Curie. Oh and St. Peter too. How are we supposed to know what he looks like?
I burst out laughing at the answer, "St Peter". As if anyone knows what he looked like!
Amen brother.
Also no one actually knows what Columbus or Shakespeare looked like.
Maybe there were paintings of him !!!,,,, at least you had a good laugh… main thing….
i knew it
@@Quarequieus id say alot of people know generally what shakespeare looked like, not so much christopher columbus
Hello. It is Marie Sklodowska. She took Curie after marrying her husband, but even then she called herself, Marie Curie-Sklodowska!!!!
Hi, thank you for the heads up. I didn't know that part 🙂
u are sigma
For all the work to write it out, I'd have stuck with Curie.

08:39 this is Khubilai khan, founder of Yuan dynasty (he is grandson of Genghis Khan)
Thank you That’s who I thought it was.
Yes
Grandson of Temujin, Genghis Khan is a title meaning king of the silver seas, by silver seas he meant the silver ripe grasses of the Mongolian plains.
Haha, number three was really difficult, having the name badge on his chest.
😜
I got it wrong! I said Curtis Armstrong (the actor)! I knew it was not the actor I just couldn't remember his first name.

Would have been better called "Who are these American presidents? "
You made Stalin a former U.S. President.
And when was Marilyn Monroe’s term again?
Not all of them were presidents.
55 images, and only seven were American presidents.
Few were American presidents
47. Some I didn't get are ones I would NEVER get.
I named my dog after the guy, but that image didn’t look like the others of him I’ve seen.
Now why would you choose that picture for Charlie Chaplin
RIGHT? THAT'S UNFAIR WHERES TJE MOUSTACHE
Yeah, I thought he was Harry Houdini!
Yes .nobody is familiar with this pic.
Because that's what he looked like when he wasn't acting.

Not really.
Over all it was fun, but i found it a bit silly to show a fantasy painting of St. Peter.
I agree! I managed to get 22 correct. I recognized the "names" of the ones I missed, but can't say I've ever seen a picture of those.

Yes but she is known as Marie Curie all over the world…. Come on!
@@perverie i don't care. Her full name is Maria SKLODOWSKA Curie and people forgot that she's polish :)

Marilyn Monroe was so beautiful.
I got all but 5 of them. Do we even know what Saint Peter looked like?
Anne Frank was so pretty and so was Ameilia Earhart!
some say there was an uncanny resemblance, Amelia Earhart and another famous aviator Charles Lindbergh (not saying that Charles was pretty, though 😄 )

@@karenhearne7112 He was born in Israel so chances are he wasn't white, but I agree we cannot truly be sure
Plus he was a young man when he was crucified. So, many his granddaddy ? 😂😂

Hi April avila you are my friend from 2nd grade
Awesome good quiz love❤
