9/10, never even heard of "Curious George".

Looking it up, I think I must have seen this monkey somewhere, but I never read the story and I was way too old when they started streaming the show in France.

You're not wrong JZG77, a trained monkey would be expected to score 2 or 3/10 by chance.

I’m pretty sure he was referring to the earth when he said they blew it up, not just one statue!
+1
Level 64
Feb 20, 2025
Yeah, the Statue of Liberty is fairly intact, just partially buried, I thought.
+8
Level 49
Feb 20, 2025
Technically, question 6 is somewhat incorrect; while Heston's character sees the destroyed statue and makes this exclamation, he isn't surprised that the statue itself is destroyed. Rather, the statue indicates that the (formerly unidentified) planet is Earth, so the object of his surprise is that "they blew (the Earth) up!"

Also the "they" is referring to humanity, not the apes. The quote is said because the protagonist realises that humanity wiped itself out via nuclear war.
+3
Level 94
Feb 20, 2025
This is underscored by what he says just before: "I'm back. I'm home. All the time, it was... We finally really did it."

We finally blew up the statue of liberty doesn't make any sense; there'd be no specific fear of such an event. We finally destroyed ourselves and the planet... yeah.

10/10 and 9,888, a little bit slow on a couple so I don't think I'll be holding onto top spot for long today 😅 Thailand was an educated guess for the monkey gangs, and Curious George was just a complete shot in the dark, had no idea

There's only one way we could have gotten AIDS from chimps... I hope there is another way...

Level 89
Feb 20, 2025
While that's certainly a possibility, I think the current consensus is it probably made the jump when somebody ate infected bushmeat.

No, that really is the prevailing theory. The disease has to mutate from the chimpanzee-compatible SIV (Simian) to a Human-compatible form. Tracing the different strains of the disease indicates it occurred through at least 4 separate transmission events, linked to exposure to the animals' blood and other fluids during the butchering process or consumption. The strain responsible for the pandemic most likely originated in southern Cameroon.

After doing this quiz and a little research, I found out that there are chimps who hunt bush babies by taking small saplings and sharpening the ends. Apparently this is mostly done by female chimps in one region of Africa only (not the eastern jungle chimps). Chimps can use tools!
