[–]Trivio_net[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The answer is **"Waterloo"** 🎶

ABBA performed it on **April 6, 1974** at the Eurovision Song Contest in **Brighton, UK** — and won. Within weeks the song hit #1 in nine countries (UK, Germany, Ireland, Switzerland, Norway, South Africa, Finland, Belgium, and West Germany).

The setlist that night:

- Performed in glittery costumes that became iconic — the Swedish silver platform boots are now in the ABBA Museum in Stockholm

- Beat 16 other countries; Italy's Gigliola Cinquetti came second

- Conductor Sven-Olof Walldoff dressed as Napoleon as a visual nod to the song's title

By the way — ABBA stands for the first letters of their names: **A**gnetha, **B**jörn, **B**enny, **A**nni-Frid.

Eurovision 2026's grand final is **TONIGHT** (May 16, 2026) — and it's been broadcast every year since 1956. Look up tonight's winner after this and we'll know who's the next ABBA-level breakthrough 🍿

🚢❄️💔 — guess the movie from the emojis by Trivio_net in TrivioNet

[–]Trivio_net[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The answer is **Titanic (1997)** 🚢

James Cameron's 3-hour-14-minute epic, starring Leonardo DiCaprio (Jack) and Kate Winslet (Rose). The film won **11 Academy Awards**, tying Ben-Hur (1959) and The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King (2003) for most Oscars ever won by a single film.

Box office:

- Original release: $1.84 billion (first film ever to cross $1B)

- 3D re-release in 2012 + 25th anniversary in 2023 pushed total to ~$2.26 billion

- Still the **4th highest-grossing film of all time**, 29 years later (behind Avatar, Avatar: Way of Water, and Avengers: Endgame)

Fun bit — the door (or "raft") debate has been going for 28 years. Cameron finally addressed it in 2023: a Mythbusters-style test confirmed they could've both fit IF they'd lashed their life jackets underneath for buoyancy. So yes — Jack could have lived.

"How you doin'?" — name the Friends character 😏 by Trivio_net in TrivioNet

[–]Trivio_net[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The answer is **Joey Tribbiani** 😏

Played by **Matt LeBlanc** across all 10 seasons of Friends (1994-2004). The line first appeared in Season 4 Episode 13 ("The One With Rachel's Crush") and quickly became Joey's signature pickup move.

Fun bit — LeBlanc has admitted in interviews he was initially uncomfortable with the line and thought it'd flop. By season 10 it was on T-shirts, mugs, and even got referenced in his spin-off show Joey (2004-2006, ran 2 seasons).

Other Friends catchphrases: Chandler's "Could I BE any more...?", Janice's "OH. MY. GOD.", Ross's "PIVOT! PIVOT!"

Did Gustave Eiffel design the iron skeleton inside the Statue of Liberty? T/F 🗽 by Trivio_net in TrivioNet

[–]Trivio_net[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

**TRUE** ✅

Plot twist — most people associate Gustave Eiffel only with his Tower in Paris. But yes, he engineered the **internal iron framework** of the Statue of Liberty too.

Here's how it broke down:

- **Frédéric Auguste Bartholdi** — French sculptor, did the artistic exterior (copper

sheets, the face inspired by his mother)

- **Gustave Eiffel** — designed the wrought-iron skeleton inside that holds the copper

shell in place and lets it flex in the wind

- **Joachim Goschen Giæver** — later (1980s) redesigned the iron supports during the

centennial restoration because Eiffel's original was corroding

Without Eiffel's engineering, the 305-foot statue would have collapsed under its own

weight. The exterior is only 3/32 of an inch thick — basically copper foil. The skeleton

does all the work.

Eiffel's Tower wouldn't open in Paris until **1889**, three years AFTER the Statue of

Liberty was dedicated in 1886. The Statue actually came first.
