Want to Try Again?
This test is pretty tricky, and most of these facts are not well known, so we can't blame you for striking out a bit. That said, there's always time to try again, armed with a bit more knowledge this time.
You have either great knowledge or a great brain or probably both, you've found a large part of the false facts even though we tried our best to make them believable. Really good job, but you still have some room for improvement...
And we're glad you are! What a superb display, good for you! You must have a pretty great memory and/or a sense of unfailing logic that utilizes what you know of the world and allowed you to 'sniff out' the wrong facts. Congrats on acing our quiz!
