I must challenge #27. Claustrophobia is just as much a "fear of being confined in a space where escape is difficult" as is Agoraphobia, which is generally considered a fear of crowds, deriving from the Greek word for marketplace, "agora". Your editing of the definition created an incomplete, and therefore, false definition.

From the NHS definition: Agoraphobia is a fear of being in situations where escape might be difficult or that help wouldn't be available if things go wrong. Many people assume agoraphobia is simply a fear of open spaces, but it's actually a more complex condition. Someone with agoraphobia may be scared of: travelling on public transport.

I agree ! Clostro phobia = Kleistofovia in Greek = fear (phobia) of closed ( kleisto) spaces. Agora phobia= fear of the "agora" ie the open space , the market place ,esp where there are many people . These words are commonly used in Greek today

Sean, enjoyed this sets of quizzes a lot. Got the Hawking award at 41/50. Did not quite get the correct answer to the bonus question when I answered "joustling" instead of "jousting. Still nostalgic about celebrating our 50th anniversary with my wife at age 79. Quite happy that there are still a good number of neurons working in my head. Thanks. Greetings from Virginia, USA.

Technically the surface of the sun is the hottest of the three given choices because lightning doesn’t have a temperature. It’s electrical charges and the resistance between them while moving through a medium (air) causes it to heat.

A lot of fun. Thanks. However have to critique Q27. 'Fear of being alone where escape is difficult.' Agoraphobia is the fear of OPEN spaces. Claustrophobia is the fear of closed spaces where escape is not possible. Claustrophobia better fit the clue. Thanks again.

No claustrophobia is not a fear of being alone - it's a fear of being in an enclosed space with no sense of escape. Claustrophobes freak out even if they are with people as they feel the 'walls closing in on them'. Being 'alone' has nothing to do with it.

@michaelbarbuto

@@KptKrunch9481 After re-reading the question and separating the wording to myself, I concur, you are correct. Fear and difficult to escape are the words I honed in on. I suffer major claustrophobia if closed in a space not much smaller than a coat closet. I can give myself a panic attack with just the thought of being temporarily buried alive even while knowing that I'll be released within a certain but unknown period of time

I went in expecting to suck on account of my mind discarding trivia to conserve space for analysis and creativity, but still got 38-39 (answered claustrophobia), + the very easy bonus. Though at least 5 were guesses using logical reasoning and more by process of elimination. Maybe I should try out for Jeopardy after all, and see if I can "game " a decent chunk of change out of it.

37= Fleming Award of Intelligence...great! Enjoyed it! I also think #27 is Claustrophobia. I did get jousting correct, so maybe add 3 to my score???

Einstein award at 48/50. Jousting is the answer to the bonus question. Great quiz as always.

Nothing of these to do with being genius or not, these are knowledge which needed to be learned.

I’m sure the genius in Pakistan would object to many of the questions. British and especially Americans have a great advantage. I’m American, 70 years old and according to you deserve the Einstein award but many questions were USA specific. Thanks for the workout.

There's one mistake: Agoraphobia is the fear of being in open spaces ("agora" beeing Greek for something like a market place) or even leaving your apartment. Claustrophobia is the fear of confined places like, for example, elevators, closets or air planes.

I just recently found your videos and like your cool way of going through the questions and answers. You manage a fair sort of difficulty in tackling diverse subjects. Do I A) hate it, B) like it or C) think you're a great quizmaster -> sure, all three are correct! Managed 35 / 50 - so Fleming is my new hero. Keep it up....
