Sporkle's random quiz button. In this video, I'll be clicking this button and no matter what geography quiz pops up
0:06
I have to attempt it. Sporkle has 157,000 quizzes, some of which I'll be very good at and many of which I'll be terrible at
0:14
But no matter how difficult they are, I have to attempt them. So here we go. First random quiz
0:18
Oh, this looks like my kind of thing. D countries on a map. I have 30 seconds to name every country that begins with D
0:23
Okay, is it gonna give me any actual hints when I click play? Yes, it is. So that'll be Denmark, I'm guessing
0:29
Yep, and then we've got Democratic Republic of Congo, um, Djibouti, that'll be, go on, and then what's that one, Dominica
0:37
Yep, and then Dominican Republic, uh, yep, easy, that was a good start, that was a good first quiz for me to attempt
0:44
I'm sure it's downhill from here, random quiz, find the star, world capitals 4, can you find the star hidden in the random world capital
0:51
typing a capital will reveal its distance, I am confused, okay, I don't really get this, but I've got 1 minute 30
0:57
So we'll see how we do so i'll just enter a capital city london. It says london 5,481. I don't know what that means
1:03
lisbon 6,000 I genuinely have no idea what i'm doing, right? We'll just name random capitals, washington 10,000 are these numbers distances
1:11
So I have to try and find a capital that's like over here somewhere. All right, we'll try beijing
1:14
3,400 so somewhere maybe in the middle. I don't know that many capitals
1:18
I'll be honest. We'll try ankara for turkey 3,400. I don't know what's going on. What capitals do I know in africa
1:24
I know Tunis. I know Algier. 5,000. What does this mean? Victoria. 5,000. I've got seven seconds left
1:32
Okay, this one's not gone as well. Wellington. We'll shove it in. Why not? Okay, what
1:37
This is every single capital in the world. I don't know what I'm meant to be doing. Right, looking at the instructions again. As I said, it was like playing global. So it looks like
1:45
the answer was Bishkek, and the closest I got was 3,000 kilometers away. I mean, I don't even know
1:51
which country Bishdek is. It's the capital of Kyrgyzstan. Curse you, Kyrgyzstan. Famous places
1:57
east to west. Can you pick the famous places from the most easterly to the most westerly? That
2:01
depends on what information I'm given. Oh no. Okay, most easterly. So that's Australia. Great
2:08
Barrier Reef is also Australia, but it's more easterly than The Rock. I'm going to go with Great Barrier Reef. Yes. Then maybe we'll go with Uluru. Oh, nice, nice. Egypt. We've got India. We've
2:17
got UK, Vesuvius is Italy, so I need somewhere else that's... I don't know. Should I try Taj Mahal
2:24
Oh, what? That's so difficult. Okay, I'm going again. Iguazu Falls. Maybe it's that. No, okay
2:30
Angkor Wat. Yes, there we go. Then maybe Taj Mahal. Should I try Taj Mahal now? Yes. Iguazu Falls
2:37
Yeah, we could try that next. Oh, Mount Kilimanjaro was next. Okay, well, then it must be the Sphinx
2:45
right? I don't know where Iguazu Falls is, but I'm thinking maybe South America. So we'll leave
2:50
it for now and we'll do... Should I go with Cave of Good Hope? That could be South Africa, maybe
2:55
Yes. Then we're probably going to be Italy, so Mount Vesuvius. And then I guess Stonehenge in
3:01
the UK. Do I gamble on Iguazu Falls now? Because the other two are in the US. I'm going to go for
3:06
it. Yes. Then it's going to be the Liberty Bell followed by Mount Rushmore. We did it, but it took
3:10
me a few attempts. Random quiz again. Hit me. Group clicking. America no outlines. Can you
3:15
click on any country starting with the given letter within the time limit. Yeah, we'll try
3:19
we'll try. C, so Colombia. Oh no, we'll go Canada. That'd be a bit easy, wouldn't it? There you go
3:24
S, right, we could do Suriname, which is like, I think it's that one, yeah. What could G be
3:31
Guyana would be, wouldn't it? So if Suriname's there, is Guyana here or is it? I think it's
3:37
next to it. I'm gonna try it. Yes. B, we could do Belize, we could do Bahamas. I think Bahamas
3:42
are up here. Oh, that freaks me out. It's clicked all the other eligible places. All right
3:46
V is Venezuela. J is going to be what begins with J. Are there any countries that begin
3:51
with J around here? I can't think of any. I can think of like Jordan, but that's nowhere
3:55
near this area. I'm going to skip it just because I'm actually having quite a bit of fun Trinidad and Tobago I think I can click actually I think that this guy A we could do Argentina which I guessing I safe to click right at the bottom Yep Peru we could do over here Yeah U is Uruguay E is gonna be Ecuador N for Nicaragua
4:17
Ooh, with no outlines, that's tricky. Let's skip. Let's see how far we can get. D for Dominica
4:22
Is that Dominica there? I think it might be if I click right on the edge. Yes, M for Mexico. H for..
4:29
Is that haiti there or is that jamaica? Oh, jamaica That's who i could have gone with haiti jamaica click. Oh, I didn't make it in time
4:37
How did I forget jamaica and then nicaragua as well? I just wasn't confident on but overall we did a couple of skips, but we did quite good there. All right random quiz again
4:45
What have we got? Oh, what is this large sparkle countries mindfold
4:48
Can you name the largest countries by area that begin with each letter of sparkle without getting a single one wrong
4:54
No, no, I don't think I can let's have a go So largest country that begins with s is probably sudan i'm gonna try it
5:01
Nope I'm gonna have another go. Is it gonna be south africa? Do you think i'll try south africa south
5:08
Africa, no, but it's something really obvious that i'm missing. Okay, i'll try skip it for now
5:13
I'm gonna try peru. Yeah, there we go. Oh, what would all be? I think it's got to be oman
5:18
It's the only country right? Yeah, r is not gonna be rwanda. It could be romania romania is quite large romania
5:25
Ah, Romania, Rwanda. Right, we'll skip R. C's probably going to be Chad, I'm assuming
5:30
Ah, it's not. What is Chad? Chad, Colombia? Canada. Obviously, it'd be Canada
5:35
Obviously. L, Nassau. No. Lithuania. I'm going to try Laos. No. What's E
5:41
Could it be Ethiopia? Oh, it is. And then S, Saudi Arabia
5:46
Saudi Arabia. Oh my God. I'll try Latvia. No. Libya is the largest country that begins with L
5:52
Obviously, it's literally massive. And largest country beginning with R. Oh, no
6:05
Literally the largest country in the world. Well, that's embarrassing. Largest North American country's minefield
6:12
Can you name the 10 largest countries of North America? Probably. So that is going to be Canada followed by USA, Mexico
6:20
Right. So now it gets trickier. I mean, there's not going to be that many. There's gonna be probably jamaica
6:26
Jamaica's 15th. I'm going again. I'm going again cuba must be on there
6:30

6:55
this little wiggly fella all the way down the bottom. It's not that big, is it? We've got Belize
6:58
we've got El Salvador. I don't think they're going to be on the list. What's this other big one? I've
7:03

One subcategory in 15 categories, South America. Can you answer these 15 questions about South America
12:05
I'm sure I can't. I'm sure I'm just gonna keep embarrassing myself. Sports which South American country was defeated 7 by Germany in the semifinal Probably Brazil Geography in which South American country is the Atacama Desert primarily located Maybe Chile Oh yes
12:19
Music. Which of these singers from Colombia? That is Shakira. Oh maybe when you talk like that. Which

12:50
Chaviche often considered the national dish of Peru consists mainly of chicken
12:55

13:22

I know there's a few places named after him, so let's go with it. I shouldn't have gone with it. Okay, we got 8 out of 15
14:00
So that's over 50%, which I actually don't think is too bad considering it's not something I know much about
14:06
Random quiz. Hidden neighbors of Peru. Bloody hell. Get us out of South America, man
14:11
It says Ecuador. What do I do? Do I click up here? Right, I understand now. Bolivia. Like around here

Oh, that's the sea, you idiot. Oh, that's so unsatisfying. Countries by percentage of consonant

Can you name the countries that cover up the highest percentage of their continent by area? I'm sure I can't, but what I will do is say Russia to begin with
14:36
