Boromir's guess the famous game #157 [Samantha Smith is the famous person, capuchin wins!]


1. I'm thinking of some famous person, it can be a film actor, a philosopher, a president, a prime minister, a singer, fictional character, mafia man etc.
2. You need to ask me a yes or no question about this person, for example, "Is the person still alive?," "Does the person work in the entertainment industry?," any question you can think of that helps you to reveal the answer. The host answers with yes or no only.
3. Maximum 1 question and 1 guess per player per answer.
4. The winner can either start a new game or say "pass." In case of a pass, the OP gets to start another.

Samantha Smith was an American girl who, at age 12, became famous worldwide as a peace activist after she wrote a letter to Soviet leader Yuri Andropov and he wrote back to her. She asked him why the Soviet Union wanted war, and Andropov explained to her that the Soviet Union wanted peace and invited her to come visit the Soviet Union to see for herself what the country was like. She became a symbol of peace and international goodwill who was celebrated in both the capitalist and socialist worlds. In 1985 her life was cut tragically short when she died in a plane crash at age 13. She was mourned in both the United States and the Soviet Union.
