About Today’s Final Jeopardy – Friday, 7 July 2023
In March 1519, an animal that had not been seen on the North American mainland for about 10,000 years made its comeback – the horse. This reintroduction happened when Spanish conquistador Hernán Cortés embarked on his expedition, bringing with him 16 horses.
The reintroduction of horses had a significant impact on the native tribes of North America, particularly those on the Great Plains. With horses now a part of their societies, these tribes saw drastic changes in their ways of life, influencing everything from their economy to their mobility.

Final Jeopardy Video – Friday, 7 July 2023
Watch all the videos from today’s Jeopardy episode below, including highlights, behind the scenes outtakes and full episodes.
Final Jeopardy is the final round of the popular American television game show Jeopardy!, in which participants test their knowledge in numerous areas by answering questions. In Final Jeopardy, participants are given a single clue and must wager a percentage of their existing earnings based on their confidence in their ability to successfully respond.
Each contestant surreptitiously writes down their wager during the commercial break. The Final Jeopardy clue is presented when the programme resumes, and participants have 30 seconds to write down their solution in the form of a question (e.g., “What is…?”). When the timer runs out, the host, reveals each contestant’s response and wager in ascending order of their pre-Final Jeopardy scores. The scores of contestants are adjusted based on whether their response is correct or incorrect, as well as the amount wagered. At the end of the round, the contestant with the highest score is proclaimed the winner.
