This is a quiz where the answers are never as they seem. They are based in incorrect "general knowledge" answers.

Rules/regualtions

You get 1 point for a correct answer, more (whatever I feel) for being interesting (relevant to the question) but 10 points off for giving the obvious answer. You can only guess once per question and, most importantly, I'm always right this stuff is all off of QI.

First question is:

How many wives did Henry VIII have?

Yep same here.

The largest living thing is a honey fungus (you can probably find it in your garden). But a specimen in Malheur National forrest on Oregon covers over 2,200 acresand is between 2,000 and 8,000 yearts old.
