    It would come under the same heading as 'Hitler was a vegetarian' and 'someone broke Michelangelo's nose' snippets of information.

    Bit late! Maybe I shouldn't have, and it may well be completely made up, but it is interesting and I'll hardly lose marks for doing extra research... Even if it was not well researched.

    I forgot that one (laughing) and no it's not worth mentioning, though many will.

    I'm here with my checklist:

    Luther was a Nazi, check.

    Hitler had only one testicle, check.

    Magellan was a woman, check.

    Eamonn DeValera was a member of the Royal Family, check.

    Instant A....

    If I get an A, I'll be sending you a long post of thanks because it will obviously be down to your fact about Luther being a Nazi. Thanks! ;)

    A: Ferdinand Magellan

    Lol how can you get that question wrong? Is it just me or did the short q's seem slightly more difficult in comparison to other years, although I managed to get 10 right, I attempted all 20, I certainly didn't get all 20 right :p

    Only advice for JC History...unless you REALLY know what you are doing, stay away from the Social Change in the 20th century question.

    Worst answered question every year.
