The recent flurry of public holidays has shown that we can survive on a four-day workweek.
It also means five-day weeks drag on. Well done on making it through to Thursday, and as a reward here’s a viral video of yesteryear.
This week we’re looking at the man that is arguably the coolest cucumber in game show history – John Carpenter
On the November 19, 1999 episode of Millionaire (as they call it in the US), Carpenter went all the way to the final question without using a single lifeline.
No asking the audience, no 50/50, and no phoning a friend. Then the $1 million question arrived, and he decided to ring up his parents:
That is one smooth operator.
The win made Carpenter the first contestant in the worldwide Millionaire franchise to win the show’s top prize.
Along with the cold, hard cash, that’s a lovely bonus.
