This one was very hard, got the last 3 wrong and could easily have dropped more on some of the earlier questions. I probably should've known the Rolling Stones one but had absolutely no idea about the earthquake or the Disney song. 7/10
Wow I beat a lot of the best quiz takers today :D No disrespect Frankii! I didn't think I'd be able to get 10/10 today but somehow managed too, even though I went much slower than usual. Still a slow 10/10 counts for more points than a fast 9/10.
Similar thoughts as I currently sit near the top of my leaderboard (right under that one suspiciously successful player).
I did miss the earthquake one though. Just as I was clicking Kathmandu, it occurred to me that the famous event there was more recent (it was 2015), but too late to change.
6/10. Don't care about James bond. Since it's been established I don't know what fusion is, I figured it was that. Not many people knew the earthquake city. In fact, since only 20% got it right, and in a choice of 4, statistically 25% could just guess it right, I'm thinking hardly anybody knew it. And I guessed wrong between AOL and Microsoft. I hope the rest of my day goes better.
Weird day. I got the video game and Disney questions right, which I normally miss. But missed the geography and world events questions, which I'm normally OK on.
I was just telling my kid about seeing Pocahontas in the theater. Seems like just a couple years ago, except that I could hardly remember anything else on this quiz. ha
Sadat and Rabin were the heads of state of Israel and Palestine, IIRC, and they managed to come to a peace agreement for their countries then Rabin was assinated. I think they jointly won the Nobel peace prize.

Although it's only one single point.
Fun Fact: I only knew #5 cause I once needed it to create a quiz.

And all I remember about 1995 is the OJ trial.
Evidently I need to brush up on my French politics knowledge
