I can't believe this, I mean, who doesn't know where their heart is FFS?

to be fair, these are pretty poor and in some cases misleading diagrams.

thankfully I got all of those right, but I still have no idea where my ovaries are.

I got 3/3, sort of guessed that the pancreas was the lowest one as it's near the liver. Although on the basis of the statistics, I can imagine that some people would even get their genitals in the wrong place...

After all, it's not like they're asking where McBurney's Point is (on the coast of Scotland, BTW)

except when McBurney goes on holiday (c.Ronnie Barker)

Maybe it was a much deeper question and they weren't asking where their heart is but where their heart is.

Heart is no way as high up as it is in the 'correct' diagram C, it's kinda halfway between that and B, which is what I'd imagine many people answered.

OK I actually looked at those diagrams and if you didn't pick C for heart you either thought you were answering a different question or you're a mongoloid. It's the one that places your heart in your chest. It's the one question where you can physically feel the organ. *check mark*
