I'll be generous and give you it.
Johnny played Nancy's boyfriend in Nightmare on Elm Street and was unceremoniously sucked into his bed by Freddy Kruger.

In mythology a certain god sacrificed a part of his body in exchange for knowledge. What was the gods name and what part of his body did he sacrifice?
I dont do quizzes and ask questions so if this is a ridiculous question just say and i'll try another, or let someone else take over.

i think it's a good question but i don't know the answer. i don't think it is a greek or roman god so i'm thinking norse mythology.

You would be correct in thinking that. It is Norse.

Okay, sticking with Odin then:
Odin (along with the other Germanic Gods and Goddesses) is recognized by Germanic neopagans. His Norse form is particularly acknowledged in Ásatrú , the "faith in the Aesir ". In which four countries is Ásatrú an officially recognized religion?

Stevie has none, but Istenem manages a credible 3 out of 4. However, telling you which one he got wrong would make this too easy.
