[@tommymcallister9585]

Good quiz

[@leithscrumhalf4143]

Another interesting and enjoyable mix of questions, number 11 was a laugh! One correction though, the surgeon in number 16 was Dr. Christiaan Barnard.

[@LtJackboot]

It’s Dr Christaan Barnard. South African, heart transplant surgeon in 1967. Please correct errors BEFORE you submit the quiz!! Otherwise you look very silly indeed.

[@DanDownunda8888]

@@TheTriviaChannel except for question 11 that any half wit would know good quiz 15/20

[@carolynhurlburt3054]

The answers need to come up quicker.

[@jdhill4]

Several examples of what I consider to be poor questions in this video. Question 7: How deep is the Marianas Trench. Almost no one knows the exact answer. I thought I would be doing well knowing it was about 36,000 feet and with some quick approximating math estimated it to be about 11,000 meters. Yet, there are two answers that are about that exact number separated by a mere 50 meters. I would think 99.9% of the population would merely be guessing on that. Same with question 2: In what year were the first Olympics? I think knowing that they occurred in the 700s BC is about the best 99% of the population is going to do. Why are there 3 answers closely spaced in the 700s? I would imagine the answer was correctly guessed 34% of the time while the incorrect ones each 33%. Also, question 9: Straight out of wiki third paragraph: "Marco Polo was not the first European to reach China..."

[@derlinclair3652]

15/20 correct.

[@RoosterIB]

me too

[@rohitKumar-gc1oe]

Ist answer is wrong. it will be harrapa civilisation (indus valley civilisation)

[@TheTriviaChannel]

I'm actually not sure. I sourced this weeks questions from a friend (who seems to have generally more interesting questions than I do :) ). I did a quick google search and found that the Harrapa Civilisation dates b/n 3300BCE and 750BCE. Ancient Mesepotamia dates between 5000 and 3000BCE. Both answers are vary to some degree depending on the source . Also I noticed that the answer gives the figures 3300 to 750BCE (coincidently corresponding to the Harppa Civilisation) which should read 5000 to 3000BCE. So I believe the answer is still correct despite the explanation of the answer being wrong in terms of timelines. If a viewer clarifies this more accurately I will pin it to the top of the page. Thanks for your feedback :)
