Same can't really said about someone from 1955 and 1975, 1980 - 2000, etc.

How is that even possible? Only three years off? I thought guessing it which tens would be good enough. Getting the last digit right is impossible without blind luck? Or am I missing something?
Round 1 I just guessed in the middle of the 70s.
Round 2 I was 5 years off, but I should have been able to get closer if I'd slowed down. Someone with a better knowledge of modern Middle Eastern uprisings or Arabic could have read the signs, but also the tech in everyone's hands was pretty closely dated.
Round 3 was pretty clearly the London Blitz—the uniform was WW2 era and people were piled on top of each other in a London Tube station—which narrowed it down to basically a single year.
Round 4 was another guess-the-decade shot, I was 6 years off (I guessed 1940). Had I thought about it harder it would have been unlikely to have been taken during WW2, which would have bumped my guess up a few years to be closer.
Round 5 was a bunch of protesters who were pretty clearly in the mid-to-late 2000s (cell phone in the background), and the topic of their protest was gay marriage which had a single very important flashpoint in that decade with Prop 8 in 2008.
Round 2 I guessed it was something to do with Arab Spring but without looking up the year of it happened I remember it was late 00s or early 10s so I put 2010.
Round 3
>and people were piled on top of each other in a London Tube station—which narrowed it down to basically a single year.
Not sure that is a knowledge I know but I only guess it was WWII, again without looking it up I only remember it as the 40s.
Round 4 I had the same thought so I guess something like 1960s because I thought it wasn't WWII.
Round 5, not from US so I only know / heard of Prop 8 when Mozilla fired their CTO Brendan Eich. I thought it happened in early to mid 2010s.
