How Intelligent Are You? Only A Sharp Brain Can Pass This Quiz! | Ultimate Trivia Quiz Round 81

[@bobhond5856]

After round 5 I don't feel very intelligent... But I liked it! Thank you for another great quiz. Answer to the bonus question is "stalactites" Listen... Can you put in some more TV/Movies/Music trivia questions, please! 😂

[@detormentis]

Correct on the bonus! Not many people enjoy the celebrity or entertainment and sports-related rounds.

Lack of knowledge perhaps not intelligence.

[@minkwelder]

Intelligence and “how much you know” are not the same thing. Intelligence is a relative aptitude to learn and process information. A lack of knowledge in certain areas is not an indicator of intelligence.

[@leprincegut9465]

Exactly.

[@leprincegut9465]

The title is null ,confusion the totally different between intelligent and how much you know 😂😂😂😂

[@Kell4088]

Exactly. I aced this quiz… and I’m a bloody moron!

Hi, speaking of Salt, the reason it was so valuable in olden times was not because it was used to enhance flavor but because it was crucial in two parts of daily life: storing food (which was salted -- like pork) and cleaning. Salt or sodium is known to effectively kill germs and bacteria. This is also the reason sodium bicarbonate (baking soda) was the first form of tooth paste and can still be used today. The only reason it isn't is because most commercial toothpaste also includes fluoride, which is thought to strengthen tooth enamel.

[@theofulk5636]

Because fluoride is poisonous, they had to LIE ABOUT IT , to put it into drinking water ! ! IT HAS NO BENEFIT TO HUMANS !

[@djperryboy]

The biggest reason is of course that our bodies need salt.

[@jayfredrickson8632]

​@@djperryboyWe don't need all that much. Before refrigerators, most salt was used for preserving food, especially meat and fish.

[@alexhurst3986]

I really liked round 5. It made you think. The other categories are things you either know or you don't. That just measures your memory, not intelligence.

[@detormentis]

Glad you enjoyed it, thanks for watching!

[@lavrentizapadni747]

43 and stalactites. An interesting final round, and one well worth a reappearance in a future quiz! Congratulations on another fine quiz!

[@tjclarke4604]

I always remembered it from when I was a kid, the Stalactites were on the ceiling, so they were held there "tight". Stalagmites were sticking up from the ground because you "might" get one up the butt if you tripped and fell on it. I know, it's a dumb way to remember, but it works!

[@detormentis]

Correct!

[@JoeGarrity]

Stalactites have a C in the center of the word for ceiling, and stalagmites have a G in the center for ground.

[@tomschlitter1594]

Hey Sean, I always enjoy your quizzes. Very challenging and always educational. I really like the format you used in Round 5. Keep up the great work.

Hello Sean. The bonus answer is 'stalactites'. I do like the new Round 5, please keep it in, or repeat it now and again in future quizzes.

[@detormentis]

Will do! And correct on the bonus!

[@murielgibbs1070]

Round 5 interesting. Not as easy as it looks at first. Looking forward to more of the same please. Also, I am hopeless at ‘celeb’ faces - film stars, tv presenters etc. but do recognise actual important faces, even if I don’t like them. The ‘celebs’ bring my score down. 🙁 Thank you for your quizzes Sean and the hard work you must put in.

[@detormentis]

Thank you for giving feedback. It's all appreciated and used to fine-tune the quizzes. Thank you for watching!

[@OLDCHEMIST1]

Well, 43, so not bad. I am rubbish on recognizing faces, so this was where all my fails occurred. Stalactites, "When the tights come down the mites go up" . Felt a really easy quiz, apart from face recognition, although I have always been bad at that!

42 Finally made Einstein!!!!!! Yeee haahh! The,"Cryptic Reasoning", was lots of fun and would be great for a repeat, but I still love it when you do,"Landmarks". Stalactites was the answer to the bonus. I usually miss those. Perfect scores serve no purpose. What is the use taking these quizzes unless I come away with something?

[@askiates]

Thanks for the quiz Shaun. I remain at Einstein level with 44/50. Was looking forward to the idea of the cryptic round, and whilst it was good, somehow it wasn't what I was expecting, although to be honest I also have no idea what I was expecting either :D

On this 81st round of the Ultimate Trivia Quiz, I scored 48/50. I missed #7 (I misunderstood the question), and 34 (Marine le Who? ). I had a lucky guess or two in Round 5. I felt that a few of those could go either way and I had to pick the best answer. For the bonus, those icicle-like things are called stalactites. I was taught to differentiate the stalactites from stalagmites because stalactites hang "tight" to the ceiling. As far as Round 5, I'm not really a fan of vocabulary questions in a trivia quiz. It's alright on occasion, but I'd prefer to not have a steady diet of them. Regardless of my feelings about Round 5, Shaun, know that I appreciate the work that you put into this quiz, as well as all the other quizzes that you post. Thanks!

[@detormentis]

Thank you so much, I appreciate it. Vocab will be rotated, so no worries!

[@MrMousley]

Marine le Pen .. a French politician .. leader of the equivalent to the National Front Party. Every time there is a election over here her posters usually get defaced by someone giving her black hair and a little 'Hitler' mustache, along with a message (in French) that I won't translate in case there are children reading this.

[@bobcarter6869]

This has nothing to do with intelligence it's just trivia

[@Smartion]

Agreed but a person must still have amassed a decent amount of general knowledge in order to score well, and use a process of illumination in order to attempt an educated guess, so technically not comparable to an IQ test it is still a desirable skill set to posses.

Did well except for face recognition. I would have scored a 37 instead of a 31. However, MUCH fun! Stalactites. We learned this in school: Stalactites have to hold on "tite" so they won't fall, and stalagmites "mite" fall over if they're too lopsided.

[@emeraldeyez2282]

Greetings! That was fun! I haven't done a trivia test in a long time... I actually surprised myself. I got 43/50. So I guess that means I made it to the Einstein Award of Genius. That makes my day... The answer to the question is stalactite, I believe. I will be sure to subscribe. Thanks!

Stalagtite hang from the top. Remember the "T" in stalagtite, it stands for top. I got 32 right, and got all of the people wrong except for Lincoln. I just don't keep up with celebrities. Looking forward to the next quiz, and thought the explanation about salt was very interesting!

[@chris72972]

I'm a visual thinker, so the way I remember the 2 words are, StalagMite (notice the M), picture the letter M on the ground. And StalacTite (notice the T) picture a T hanging from the ceiling.

[@laurendoe168]

35/50. Caves have stalactites and stalagmites. From the ceiling are stalactites (I remember the difference because stalagmites usually have a rounded top. The "K" sound in stalactites makes me think of something pointy - which they are).

I got 35 ---(including the bonus) not too shabby!

[@LaStHoPe1995]

Hey, nice quiz as always. regarding the last, new section: As non native English speaker it was very difficult to follow and way too fast. Most of these words are not in our vocabulary are therefore we had to guess most of the questions, which wasn't fun at all. We prefer the old style.

Agreed. When it comes up again, I will allow more time per question.
