- My brain hurts already. - Those are the easy ones.
Here we go. Let's get some numbers in here. ♪ (upbeat intro) ♪ - (FBE) It's time for another round
of Too Much Information. - I like it because it's challenging
and I think it makes you dig into a deep part
of your brain. - I did the Star Wars one.
It did not go well. - (FBE) We're gonna show you
a video with a lot of information, some might say
too much information, about a specific topic.
After the video ends, I will ask you ten questions
and you have to get all ten correct in order to win. - Can we do one? - (FBE) So if you don't know
the answer, you do get one bailout
that you can use at any point. That bailout will be
three multiple choice answers to choose from, one of which
is the correct answer. - Okay. - (FBE) All of today's information
is about Harry Potter. - Oh, hell yeah!
Okay, so if I already have some background knowledge
in the subject, then maybe it'll help me. - (FBE) Do you think
Harry Potter novels will help you? - Uh... no. If there's numbers, no. - I've read the books, like,
14 times and I've won the other Harry Potter challenges
we did here, so when I fail, it's gonna be
much more embarrassing. - I've seen one. (laughing) - I've never seen a single
Harry Potter film or read a book,
so this is gonna be bad. - I feel like this information
I'll retain because I want to know this information. - (FBE) We're only going to play
this video once, so be sure to pay close attention.

Deathly Hallow isn't corny. - (voice-over 1) Rowling took
the magical plant names from a book published in 1653
called Culpepper's Complete Herbal. - (voice-over 2) In 1997,

many of the Harry Potter effects were computer generated,
the mandrakes, Monster Book of Monsters,
and Aragog were all achieved practically. - (sighing) Oh, my god!
That was so hard! - That was a lot of information. - I don't remember anything already. - I got all of it, of course.
(snorts) Just put it into my brain.
It's locked in there. - (FBE) All right, here we go.
You ready for your questions? - No. There were so many numbers. Question one: Harry Potter. - (FBE) Question one:
what is the only American curse word in the Harry Potter films?
- (whispering) Bitch. (laughing) - (FBE whispering)
That's correct. - Bitch. - (FBE) That's correct!
- (cheering) That's funny.
I like that one. - That was the first one. Why was I so excited about that? - (FBE) Question two:
what is JK Rowling's first name? - Joanne, final answer.
- (FBE) Final answer? - Yeah.
- (FBE) It's correct! - Awesome. - Joanne. That I actually remember. - Joanne! On fire! - Suddenly my confidence
is up a little bit higher unti I just lose this completely. - Those were the easy ones.
Here we go. Let's get some numbers in there. - (FBE) Question three:
which two dead characters were supposed to survive?
- Oh, my gosh. I'm gonna have to use
a bailout on that one. - Oh, my god!
(groaning) Okay, I'm gonna use my bailout. - I don't know the names
of the characters, so now I have to use the bailout. - (FBE) A, Lupin and Tonks,
B, Tonks and Dumbledore, or C, Lupin and Fred.
- A. - (FBE) Lupin and Tonks?
- Yeah. - (FBE) Final answer?
- Yeah, final answer. - (FBE) That's correct!
- Okay. - I think A.
- (FBE) Lupin and Tonks? - I think.
- (FBE) That's correct! - Okay.
- (FBE) You did good! - Crap! But now--
oh, I don't have it anymore. God! Okay. - I'm gonna go with A.
- (FBE) A, Lupin and Tonks? - Yeah.
- (FBE) Final answer? - Yeah.
- (FBE) That's correct! - OH! YES!
Okay, woo! - Lupin and Tonks. - Oh, um... Tonks and Lupin
were supposed to live. - Lupin and Tonks.
- (FBE) Final answer? - Yeah!
- (FBE) Are you sure? - I mean, also a bunch of them--
a lot of people died. It's really violent.
But, yeah, those ones! - (FBE) That's correct!
- YES! - (FBE) Question four:
how tall is Hagrid? - Oh, my god! I always get my sixes
and nines mixed up. I'm gonna go with 8'9".
- (FBE) 8'9"? - Yeah.
- (FBE) Final answer? - Yeah.
- (FBE) That is incorrect. - NO! Was it 8'6"? NO! - 6'1". Wait, is it 6'8"?
Is it 8'6"? I'm gonna have to go
with the lifeline or whatever. - (FBE) A, 8'4", B, 8'6",
or C, 8'8". - B, 8'6".
- (FBE) Final answer? - Yeah.
- (FBE) That is correct! - YES!
- (FBE) Nailed it. - I switched them in my brain. - He is 8'6" inches. - 8'6". I think he was 8'6". - 8'6". - I'd say he was 8'6". - 8'6" tall. - Ooh, 8'6".
- (FBE) Final answer? - Final answer.
- (FBE) You sure? - Yes.
- (FBE) That's correct! - Okay! - (FBE) All right, question five:
in what language does Dumbledore mean "bumblebee"?
- Oh, god. I was more set on remembering
what that meant, but I don't-- can I--
maybe Latin? No? (laughing)
- (FBE) That's incorrect. - No! - I'm just gonna have to guess here. Swedish? I don't know.
Swedish is my final answer. - Oh, I knew it meant "bumblebee".
I wasn't listening to the language part.
There's so many languages. I'm not gonna even
gonna be able to bull[bleep]. I need a bailout. - Oh, shoot! I'll ask for my multiple choice. - Ugh! Can I use my bailout? - I need to use my bailout on this one.
I don't remember at all. - (FBE) A, Scottish, B, British,
or C, Old English. - I'm gonna say British
just because that's the first thing that jumped in my head.
- (FBE) Final answer? - Final answer.
- (FBE) Are you sure? - Yeah.
- (FBE) 100%? - Yeah.
- (FBE) That is incorrect! - I thought so! - I think Scottish.
- (FBE) Final answer? - Well, I don't like that [bleep]
you're doing, but yeah. - (FBE) Are you sure?
- Well, I hate this, but yeah. - (FBE) I am so sorry.
It is not correct! - GOD! I was
too all in on Scottish. I was so confident. If you go back old enough,
it could be both. They're origins.
It's all Latin. I don't want to play anymore! - (FBE) Well, luckily, you are out! - It's Old English.
It's Old English. - (FBE) Final answer?
- Yeah. - (FBE) That's correct!
- Hell yeah! Okay, we're still in the game. - I'll do Old English.
- (FBE) Final answer? - Final answer.
- (FBE) That's correct! - Okay, awesome!
Okay, good. - Old English. - (FBE) Question six:
what spell was George never able to perform again.
- The patronus. - The patronus spell. (sniffling) It's a sad victory. Here's the confession.
I didn't finish the books past Order of the Phoenix,
so I didn't have much context after Fred's death
to what happened to George, so that makes me so sad
that he couldn't do the patronus spell afterwards. - He can never do a patronus again
because his brother died. It actually is really sad. - (FBE) Question seven:
what is Edinburgh Potmakers? - Oh... wow. That was the one that had
a lot of words on the screen. Is it a textbook from Hogwarts? - (FBE) That is such
a good guess but no. - What is it? - Oh, wait, I'm gonna say
it's a codename for Deathly Hallows,
for the-- - (FBE) Final answer?
- Yeah, that's my final answer. - (FBE) Are you sure?
- Yeah, yeah. Final answer.
- (FBE) Correct! - Awesome! Okay, cool.
Okay. - It is a codename that JK Rowling used
for one of the books. - (FBE) That's correct!
- Yes! Okay. - (FBE) All right, question eight:
how many words total are in the seven Harry Potter books.
- 1,100,086. ...86, yeah. - (FBE) Is that your final answer?
- That's my final answer. - (FBE) That's correct!
- Oh, [bleep] yes! - 1,100,086. - (FBE) Question nine:
what is the name of the book that JK Rowling took plant
names from? - OH! Herb Makers
or the Herbivores or The Herb Man
or something with "herbs". I don't know.
What is it? - (FBE) Is "something with herbs"
your final answer? - Something With Herbs.
- (FBE) That is incorrect. - NO! NO! - Okay, I know it dealt with...
The Complete Herbal. - (FBE) Is that your final answer?"
- Yes. - (FBE) Are you sure?
- No, but that's my final answer. - (FBE) That's correct!
- OH MY GOD! OKAY, AWESOME! - (groaning) "Herbal" at the end! - (FBE) Question ten:
which two teams played in the 1473
Quidditch World Cup. - I'm gonna guess. I'm gonna say
Transylvania and Scotland. I can't think of another one.
- (FBE) Unfortunately, that is incorrect! - Oh, what is it?
What's the other one? - (FBE) Flanders.
- Ooh, I wouldn't have got it. - (FBE) All right, Danny,
you did pretty well. - Yeah.
- (FBE) You still missed that last question unfortunately.
- Yeah. - (FBE) But how are you feeling?
- This is way better than the last one. Like I said, it's because
it's something I wanted to learn. - I feel pretty proud of myself. I think I got a passing grade
and that's how well I'm doing in college right now. - It's way too much! The long names
and it is just so complex and it's like different languages
and I don't know. Too many numbers. - There were random history questions
about the books, where it was like
it had this many letters and all of this different
random details that doesn't have to do with the story,
so I don't care. - Some of that could've
just sounded like gibberish but I know what's up
because I'm a Hufflepuff. And... although if I was
Ravenclaw, I probably would have gotten all the answers.
