Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Why might you see signs all around the abandoned Ukrainian city of Pripyat telling you not to enter?

Answer: It is the site of a nuclear disaster

Pripyat is the city in which the Chernobyl power plant was located. The city of Chernobyl is a few miles away. Both cities were abandoned after the Chernobyl nuclear disaster. The population of almost 50,000 people were evacuated from Pripyat within two days of the disaster in 1986.

There is much disagreement as to how safe the city is today. While there are a few companies that offer tours of the ghost town, governmental permission must be obtained. Many scientists claim that radiation levels are still much too high and that a visit to the city for any reason is not safe.

The population of the city is listed as 0, and military guards and police watch the perimeter 24 hours a day. Part of the reason for this is to prevent looting, which occurred in both cities after the disaster.

These areas are known as the "Zone of Alienation".
2. In which American state would you be if you were standing outside the forbidden location known as Area 51?

Answer: Nevada

There are signs all around the perimeter of Area 51 advising that it is illegal to enter the location and that attempts to do so may result in death. Found in southern Nevada, this remote location is rumored to be the home of both alien space craft and actual alien bodies.

The exact purpose of the facility is not known but is believed to be involved in the development of new weapons and aircraft. Bordering Area 51 is the Yucca Flat which has been the home of over 700 nuclear tests. Approximately 40 miles away is the Yucca Mountain nuclear waste repository. What actually goes on at this location is a matter of much debate between conspiracy theorists and the American government.

The complete truth will probably never be known.
3. Why could you expect to see "Do Not Enter" signs all around the small island of Ilha de Queimada Grande?

Answer: The island is home to thousands of venomous snakes

The name of this forbidden island translates into "Snake Island". Located off the coast of Brazil this remote piece of land is untouched by human development. Herpetologists estimate that there are between 1-5 snakes per square meter. All of these snakes are the deadly golden lancehead, an extremely venomous pit viper.

The venom of the golden lancehead cause the flesh around the bite to decay and the kidneys to shut down. This location is so dangerous that civilians are not allowed to visit. The Brazilian Navy watches from offshore but does not land on the island unless it is absolutely necessary.
4. Which one of these locations strictly forbids females of any kind?

Answer: Mount Athos

There is a longstanding ban against females at Mount Athos. This ban applies to all females, including female animals. Known as a holy mountain this area includes both the mountain itself and the peninsula on which it is located. Access to this location is available by ferry only and special government permits are required.

A plethora of Eastern Orthodox monasteries are located at this mysterious location which has led to the centuries-old ban on females. They are thought to inhibit the monks and their path to spiritual enlightenment.
5. To which city would you have to travel if you wanted to try and enter the exclusive White's Gentlemen's Club?

Answer: London, England

Unless you are a member of White's Club, do not expect to gain entrance. Established in 1693, this exclusive club does not allow visitors, nor women. What goes on behind its closed doors does not become public knowledge. To become a member, you must be invited by a current member and then have the approval of two other members.

The only time this is waived is if the member-to-be is royalty, a well-respected celebrity, or an important official. If there were an actual "Do Not Enter" sign in front of the building, it would probably be made of gold, ivory, and assorted gemstones.
6. The only persons allowed in the Vatican Secret Archives are the Pope and members of the College of Cardinals.

Answer: False

Despite the name, the Vatican Secret Archives are not totally secret. You may apply to view files located in the Archives and may or may not be given permission. However, even if you are granted a viewing of an archive, you may not see it in the Secret Archives themselves.

The church claims that all archived materials are available for viewing other than those things that contain diplomatic and governmental information. Until 1881, everything inside the Archives remained closed to outsiders. Exactly what is contained inside the Vatican Secret Archives is not known, and the Swiss Guard is on site to make sure that unauthorized personnel do not enter the location without permission.
7. Which one of these statements about the Naign Shrine in Japan is true?

Answer: A new one is built every 20 years

The Naign Shrine is considered by many to be the most sacred shrine in all of Japan. The first shrine was built in 4 B.C. and a new one is built every 20 years. When a new shrine is built, the Yata Mirror, a holy artifact, is transferred to the new location.

The average person is not allowed at this shrine. The only people allowed inside are the religious masters of the Japanese Royal Family. Unless you are one of the special few, do not attempt to enter this location. Any of them!
8. Which of the following places is it almost impossible to visit anymore?

Answer: Lascaux Caves in France

The Lascaux Caves in France are home to some of the world's most beautiful Paleolithic cave paintings. These beautiful paintings depict many types of animals, some of which are now extinct. At one time the public had access to the caves after they were opened in 1948.

This access was banned once it was realized that the CO2 exhaled by visitors had visibly damaged the paintings to the point that the caves were closed to the public. Only once or twice a year are handpicked scientists allowed to enter the caves and then only for limited periods.
9. You might find it funny to find out that which one of these locations is the secret home of the private club known as Club 33?

Answer: Disneyland

You might be surprised to know that Disneyland is home to a very secret place located in plain sight. Club 33 is found behind an engraved door in the heart of the New Orleans Section of Disneyland. This is the only place in all of Disneyland that serves alcohol.

There is a 14-year waiting list to gain entrance into Club 33. There is also a fee of over forty thousand dollars once you make it to the top of list. There are annual fees that usually run over ten thousand dollars. If you are wanting to enter this location and become a member, be prepared to wait.
10. Located in South Australia, which of the following options is one of the largest weapons testing ranges in the world?

Answer: Woomera Prohibited Area

Located north of Adelaide, in South Australia, the Woomera Prohibited Area is said to be the largest land range in the world. This barren site is comparable in size to the country of England. This remote site is used for weapons testing and anyone wishing to visit the test range, for any reason, must obtain permission from the government.

There is a railway and the Stuart Highway which cross this land. Leaving your vehicle for any reason is strictly prohibited and these two thoroughfares can be shut down at any time if the director of the WPA chooses to do so.
