Final Jeopardy: European Landmarks (6-3-20)

Here are 3 more triple stumpers from the 6/3/2020 Jeopardy! game:

ABBREVIATIONS ($2000) In a car, SRS is this system that serves as a backup to seat belts; your airbag is one

HOT STUFF! ($400) In the 1930s Solomon Harper invented the electric curlers now called “hot” these

($1600) In this Book of the Bible, Shadrach, Meshach & Abednego are thrown into a furnace, but the intense heat does not harm them

For more info on the second Daily Double: watch The History of the Latona Fountain, presented by Chateau de Versailles

Answers to the Sneak Peek clues — IS IT BIGGER THAN A CHICKEN?
($200) Yes, it’s this Acropolis temple completed in 438 B.C. The foundation seems good but it could probably use a little roof work
($400) No, but the 2-inch “Midnite Minichamp” version of this pocketknife comes with tools that perform 17 difference functions
($600) Yes, & as the largest ships in the U.S. Navy, each is powered by 2 nuclear reactors & can displace 100,000 tons
($800) No– the bee variety of this is the world’s smallest bird at only about 2 inches long
($1000) Yes, & the massive Three Gorges Dam generates 22,500 megawatts stretching 1.4 miles across this river

    Looks like my name is mostly going to be well represented in the Finals.

    A difficult third daily double clue. Going from Louis XIV to Sun King to (fittingly) the Greek sun god Apollo is a lot for a $1,600 clue.

      Roman god, I should say, although they are the same.

    • Richard Corliss says:

      If Lauren got that Daily Double correct, none of this would be happening!

      • VJ says:

        It would have been worse if she did. She would have only had $19,000 and Ben would have taken the lead back on the $2000 clue.

        When she got it, Ben threw his head all the way back like OH NO!! But he must have realized he would still have a chance if she was right after she made that bet.

    I am just glad that the reversal helped Lauren. Congrats to the players on getting final right. And also I congratulate the finalists.
