    November 19th John Carpenter won the American wwtbam.
    He used his phone a friend on the last question to ring his dad and tell him he was about to win $1,000,000. I'm trying to track down the video clip of it. I've seen it before, it's class, but can't seem to find it again. Help anyone?

    It does look a bit suspect givin his reaction to winning a million dollars, he didnt look to excited at all. I have my doubts if this was 100%, looks like its just done for ratings!

    Hey but check this out on the same You Tube page- a wrong answer to the first "super easy" question! (Sorry it's a little "off-topic" and the video quality isn't great. Worth watching though!)

    It would have been so funny if he had got it wrong.

    I know it's not the same company but it's a bit **** that if you win the british one you get £1m but it's still only $1m if you win the US one. £1m = $1.84m. Same applies to the Irish/Euro equivelant.

    well ok, but if i had 1 million at risk i would have at least done the 50/50 before i choose to confirm the answer. The guy must just be a complete genius to answer all Q's and not use one of his lifelines, never been done before or will again I am sure.
