Who Wants to Be a Millionaire? Busted at $500,000

[thamokerking]

omg! i guessed it right! all this years guessing questions on tests have paid off!

[nlafavore]

I really did not like Kati.

[billyboobtubeboy]

She must have been the contestant who took over 40 minutes to answer a question, based on the fact she sat in the seat longer than any other did. Of course, much of her thinking would have been edited out.

[1989jnicks]

@rroberts909 i agree wit u. n i forgot to say i do give her credit for having the guts to go for it. but i really think she shouldve taken the $250,000.

[adamssean6494]

You can bet her husband was none too happy.

[rroberts909]

It's too bad she lost all that money, but I admire her guts for going for it (albeit maybe it wasn't the wisest idea to go for it). Also, "How's my husband doing?" "What's your husband doing? He's decomposing." LMAO

[CyberTechWolf]

Did anyone else notice the music started out fast and got slower?

[beccahday]

regis seriously tried to warn her off it, like a good father. then she made a dumb mistake and acted like a spoiled baby when it didn't go her way. embarrassing.

[1989jnicks]

i remember this episode. if that was me and i didnt know it, i would definetely walk away. but she went for it and failed. thats wat happens when u dont do the rite thing. at least she has 32K. but really she needed to at least put a smile on her face and she shouldve taken the $250,000

[shaunara99]

this chik is waiting 4 the horn

[rockstarrist]

He even fed her the answer at 03:00 ... ! stupid blond bitttttch !

[rockstarrist]

MUHAHAHAHAH that creature made a face on camera in the end and drank water . LMAO !! stupid blond bittch !! i can't stop laughing !

[rockstarrist]

1) That creature is American . 2) That creature is a blonde. What did you expect?

[MrSixpack23]

A blond that reads, fairplay.

[Be1smaht]

SHe's gone to college. I can tell by her train of thought. COllege students everywhere think the way she thinks when taking a exam. lol ah academia ,.

REgis just milked that chick out of her money. SUCKS

[Be1smaht]

SHe's gone to college. I can tell by her train of thought. COllege students everywhere think the way she thinks when taking a exam. lol ah academia ,.

[Be1smaht]

ANyone annoyed by those freakin words on the screen

[beccahday]

@Be1smaht yes, it's intensely obnoxious.

[MuseRoyalty]

what a fucking bitch, u just won 32k so bust a fucking smile

[riot848]

what a bitchy wife. I feel sorry for the guy. Not only did she got get her fix of more money, but now she gets to go back home and be more bitchy to her husband.

[nlafavore]

I actually didn't really like this contestant.

[valarmanwe]

How the Hell can someone throw away $250,000 on a guess ? That must be about £100,000. That, to me at any rate, is a lot of money. A useful amount of money.

[Darkcurse101]

@valarmanwe Its called Greed.

[3SidedSquare]

serves the smug bitch right. The way she takes the cheque for 32K like she's going to wipe her ass with it and says "oh my god" boo hoo

[milnusthegnome]

Her husbands thinking (k smile)...."Honey get the fuck out of here quickly, you're embarrassing me"

[moneybags1972]

2:52 "Palau... doesn't do anything for me."

6:16 "My answer is D: Palau."

WHAT THE HELL?!?!?!?!

[jonnyrotic]

Greed is one hell of a drug.

[koinshaku]

As far as I'm concerned, once you have the 32000 in pocket, you might as well go for it. So she ONLY won 32000 - not bad.

[milnusthegnome]

@koinshaku LOL IDIOT

[tianang77]

@koinshaku

well you obviously don't make much if 32000 and 1000000 seem the same to you......

[Vickzq]

If you don't know an answer and aren't intelligent to bail out with that much money... you deserve to loose it.

[tadwight30]

Regis is bored@6:16.

[tadwight30]

I should have coughed at 3:08

[whoeckum]

@tadwight30 good one.

[cnlaw]

at 6:54, she's probably hoping that it was a dream.

[zxssded]

gotta luv the ending bit. it sounds great i reckon 2.

[Artyom2012]

And I woulda said Czech Republic for there was no such state up to 1992, when Czekoslovakia splitted apart.

Well, really I woulda grabbed money, for nobody knows what Tonga or Palau are :-)

[MrNiceGuySMKM]

And this is why you need a timer -____-

[edwinaisobese]

haha, ye she thinks shes smarter than she is.

[tadwight30]

Really, I wanted her to get the half million. I wanted her to epic fail.

[MetalSmasherGaming]

"I'm really leaning towards Tonga now."

*cue Tecwen Whittock cough*

[Huitzel]

@MetalSmasherGaming AHAHAHAHA!

[Vook]

Right from the start of the question I knew she was headed for trouble when she said, "I don't think it's A because A was the answer to the last question..."

That's bad enough of a strategy on a test to risk a point or two...not sure what it says about you if you're willing to gamble $218,000 with it...

[jellyfishattack]

who'd know that?

[notundercovercop327]

I think her husband was on Jeopardy recently.

I hate that at the end she's all, "I had it." No you didn't have it. If you had had it you would have gotten it right. If your wrong don't try to act like you knew it all along.

[tatt4music]

That chick thinks she is smarter than she is.she deserved to lose and not even walk away with the 32,000

[Sheixas]

her husband like: yes i'm on tv, just smile... lol

[supremeon1]

what the f... did you do to the sound ???

[darepow]

Why the hell didn't she just walk away with the money? Why risk getting it wrong?

[ShadowLinkxMaster]

Regis should really leave his "I'm scared to Death!" emotion behind, He screwed two contestants on Millionaire, one is her, she was going for Tonga and she did say "I'm gonna say Tonga", he was suppose to say Final Answer but he just said "I hope you win o_O" and another contestant who was going for a million was about to answer but regis does his ISTD and the contestant decided to walk away, his answer would have been correct.

[GSNSmashFan3]

@ShadowLinkxMaster

(sarcasticly) I'm gonna take a wild stab in the dark here. Was that "contestant who was going for a million" Norm MacDonald?

[andynaik]

No need to take a risk at such a stage. Quarter a million ain' enough for you?

[Spectre426]

@andynaik Nope, she's a greedy fuck and deserved to go home with $0. I hope she enjoys her $32k retard prize though.

[myfamilyiscrazy]

I was literally falling asleep... I was like "answer already!" and I think her response to getting the question wrong was way too over the top. It's a game show, woman. Relax.

[iljbmate]

she reminded me of charles ingram the way she went about playing that question - only she wasn't cheating

[cometrally]

I didn't think this was a meltdown until she randomly said, "Yeah, I'm leaning towards Palau" like for no reason and all of a sudden and you could hear/feel Regis and the audience go "WTF?!?!" at the exact same time.

[jason101588]

If this question was asked today, Tonga wouldn't be the right answer. In fact, the most recent member is Montenegro.

[teamguido555]

@jason101588 is montenegro in the un though?

[jason101588]

@teamguido555 Yes, Montenegro became the 192nd and most recent member of the United Nations on June 28, 2006. I've read their dates of admission on the UN website. I also did other researches to prove that Montenegro is in the UN.

[teamguido555]

@jason101588 ah, thank you

[Cubfan2240]

Jeez, she played this question like Paul Lassiter. And if you dont get that reference, please look it up.

[Galantski]

Regis gave her the clue that really should have led her to quit while she was ahead: "Yes, but you can't pinpoint the country." Isn't that the key here?

[Jeville42135]

She did not want to have sex that night.

[Galantski]

@Jeville42135 Doubt if her husband would have wanted it all that much, either. LOL

[fmoran111]

i remember when this aired

[fsn12800]

Haha i remember when this first came on. What a stupid woman. I wouldve took the money and leave! Even Regis was trying to tell her dont do it.

[detdadet97]

STUPID BITCH u still got 32,000 lololl

[PyrozPlayground]

Found Waldo at 3:15!

[Galantski]

@PyrozPlayground LOL

[PyrozPlayground]

@Galantski XD

[Kluuz]

lol the ending "that sounds great"

[quizno1615]

ANSWER THE FUCKING QUESTION

[nlafavore]

I didn't like this contestant that much.

[futureBLU]

Her hubby's smile on the walk out is that of (a) a guy trying to smile to please his wife, (b) a guy trying to be professional to cover for his wife, or (c) a guy who knows he's about to get beaten and that is the last time he'll be physically able to smile in public?

[qu1ckz1]

Lmao I remember watching this back in the days.. My uncle was yelling at the tv calling her a dumb ass cuz she took so long and ended up getting it wrong.. And her reaction is awesome lol!

[foeasy16]

All the UK commenters are calling her a bitch because online is the only place you'll ever get to even speak to a female. Ironic how you can call her a bitch online and in real life can't even muster up the courage to say one word to her in real life.

[mike4ty4]

@foeasy16 You haven't got one clue as to what else they do/don't do in real life. All you can see, just like all they can see, is a bunch of crap on a computer screen.

[petrucci15]

lol....i bet when she got out ofthe studio her reaction was wild

[maidenslayer]

Tonga i'd say. Don't know the answer yet.

[freak1east]

Greed. She had already won alot...but nooooo she wanted more. Oh vells.

[McMiiCoo]

@freak1east GREEDISGOOD 1000000

[franticdisembowlment]

.......how was she busted???????, i dont fet it

[TraNWhiZ]

FAIL

[SuperVirk1]

that bitch was leaning towards my cock the whole time

[ChiSportsNut18]

shut up

[suddamsux03]

$250,000> banned from all social events bc u are a greedy bitchy traffic whore

[lewisduncan93]

What a bitch.

[Sashinator0]

Don't feel that bad for her, I read somewhere that she was going to miss the $8,000 question but someone in the audience yelled out "NO!", so she won $31,000 more than she should have.

[Dii4I3Lo]

@Sashinator0 really ?

[ShadowLinkxMaster]

@Sashinator0 Where did you see that? Is it uploaded?

[tributeforlife]

@Sashinator0 your so much full of shit go die.

[mmucougar]

@Sashinator0 $32,000 you mean

[ChiSportsNut18]

@mmucougar

Nope. If you miss a question from $2,000-$32,000 You're guaranteed $1,000. So what Sashinator0 said makes sense.

[mmucougar]

@ChiSportsNut18 Yes, but she missed a $500,000 question.

[WWTBAMclassics]

@Sashinator0 She phoned a friend on 8k... 16k she struggled through. Either way, after she got that Flying Dutchman question @ $125k, she should have walked. She had no clue for either of the next two

[YesYou123333]

@Sashinator0 Yeah but it's better to win $468,000 more than you should have than to win $31,000 more than you should have.

[kyanzes]

It was obviously stupid to call that question. Jeez, leaving more than $200k in the bank. That's terrible. Well, she still won more than me :)

[nickkk143]

ok those words are really annouying

[Galantski]

Moral of the Story: If you're ever on WWTBAM, get stumped on a question and are out of lifelines, take the money and walk.

[893160007]

live a little

[Galantski]

@893160007 -- The prudent thing to do if you don't know the answer is to admit it to yourself, not fake your way to defeat. Better to walk away with an easy $250K than make a fool of yourself.

[Krondelo]

@Galantski Seriously, people are so greedy. Get what they deserve.

[Galantski]

@Krondelo The show does bring that out in some people, doesn't it? (That background music would get on my nerves.)

[call911pl0x]

bitch shoulda took the 250k greedy hoe she deserved to lose

[TPH250290]

She goes from 'leaning towards' Tonga to 'leaning towards' Palau for no apparent reason, clearly didn't have a clue.

[Sashinator0]

@TPH250290 She thought on this question for 52 minutes, i'm sure there was some reasoning they had to edit.

[DeltaPhi79]

It's a shame that she failed and Nancy Christ was the first to become a Femalionaire. (Sorry. I felt like combining.)

[AegisAnother]

lol he was saving her arse.

[NOTaProdigy]

what a cold hearted bitch her husband goes to hug or kiss her and she just terns him down lol

[mcool135]

no not really he wasnt surpose to come on stage he just did that to be on tv rofl what a loser

[dicker9point5]

she's hot

[mcool135]

u must be desprate she's ugly

[malicios]

I have to agree, shes not very attractive. She might be a nice one night stand but that's pushing it.

[partysoco]

shes not hot she is cute not hot cute

[LTChaosLT]

i don't hear anythink what the hell?

[DeltaPhi79]

Turn up your volume.

[LTChaosLT]

@DeltaPhi79 this guy talk's to fast anyway so i don't quite understand no american

[KatanaSpirit]

I would have felt sympathy for her loss, but geez why did she have to go and be a pouting little bitch? Have some class, lose with pride.

[nintendovspcuniverse]

she was mad.

[GrammarKing]

Moron, she clearly didn't know.

[LexiMaeOwner]

Should of went "FINAL ANSWER REGIS!" at 3:30

[ShadowLinkxMaster]

Or Regis should have said "Final Answer" instead of "I hope you win......"

[napelus]

Hahaha, poor woman, but it was funny how at the end she was almost telling her husband "No, don't touch me!"

[cnlaw]

Why did Regis say "Final answer" at 3:25?

[teamguido555]

OMG, this is even more hilarious than Bob Edgeworth's and Ken Basin's losses COMBINED!!!

[ChiSportsNut18]

How was Bob Edgeworth's loss funny? And Ken Basin is a Harvard law graduate. How long do you think it would take him to make $475,000?

[teamguido555]

All three of them are freakin' FUNNY 'cos they lost so much MONEY!!!

[ChiSportsNut18]

OK, you sicko. I'll bet the contestants were really upset about their losses, and you think it's funny.

[teamguido555]

SICKO?!! It's not like I'm a sexual perv or any bullshit like that, and I'm sure they were upset; that's why they're so funny.

[jamestampere]

I agree, it's hysterical. In the Uk Millionaire you never see people loosing that much money as they are so cautious, who knows why? But it is funny when u see people loose...greedy bastards..if they want more money they should go out and get a better fucking job instead of trying grab what they can on some inane TV show...

[call911pl0x]

3 monthes

[cnlaw]

This was not hilarious. This was the most painful $500,000 loss ever. Edgeworth's loss wasn't either, but he was a good sport about it.

Ken Basin's loss on the other had was actually funny. I don't even know why. lol

[teamguido555]

Just 'cos she's a woman like you doesn't mean it's the worst loss ever...goddamn FEMINISTS...

[cnlaw]

Look I am not a feminist and I am not a woman, I am a 17-year-old boy. Thank you very much!

[kashimura10]

She really is a piece of work. Agree with some of the more astute who noticed she changed her mind three times. Then after she chose incorrectly, she said "I had it". Crap, you thought three of them were right at some point. The bit that really shit me about her is that her husband or boyfriend tried to console her and she said "don't.." and tried to shrug him off. She definitely wears the pants in that relationship and he's going to be putting up with her attitude for a long time.

[christopher0h]

HAHA Ton-ga? fuckn retard can't even pronouce properly

[Greeneagle86]

I remember seeing this on tv back in the summer of 2000. What the hell was she thinking risking it all like that? I mean if she wasn't to sure of what the answer was, why did she go 4 it? That was real stupid of her 2 do that. I know her husband had 2 pissed at her cuz I know if I was her spouse I would curse and scream at her and maybe even ring her neck. She couldn't be married 2 a black guy and do shit like that, he would kick her ass.

[Kraig00]

how was she busted? she got it wrong fair and square?

[ElectricRunner007]

Did anyone notice that when she said C, Regis said "I hope you win," meaning he was probably hinting something that she completely missed out on.

[ihateuutube]

She read something in a BOOK ...... and she thinks that it's the most recent.

[cnlaw]

I actually can't figure which was worse, Kati Knudsen's loss, or Ken Baisin's loss from Aug 23, 2009

[teamguido555]

Ken's loss; he lost more money and it was the ultimate question.

[Cozmonic032]

i'd say ken basins, i saw it when it aired and wasnt to happy, FRESCA!

[MaPLemanIAC91]

He hates Fresca forever. =x

[Cozmonic032]

hahahahaha ik!

[cnlaw]

Imagine if this question had been timed.

[teamguido555]

Sorry lady, BUT--

Just because you're a FEMINIST WOMAN doesn't mean you got ROBBED. I know it probably wasn't YOUR FAULT, since you're a WOMAN, but it was YOUR DECISION TO DO THE GUESS...don't act like you got robbed, you know it's pure bullshit to say that.

[sdsvfgs9]

How on earth do you go from Andorra to Tonga to Palau? To be honest, I thought she was gonna pick Czech Republic.

[0esudn]

everything that she said = bs

[andyman5556]

she read it in the paper.. and gets it wrong? =p

[abdullahithebest]

i remember yelling at the screen for her to walk away when this aired live

[freezazoid]

OMG I'm soooo glad this bitch got it wrong. Everything she said and did bugged the shit out of me.... I screamed BULLSHIT at everything that came out of her mouth. She even said Palau didn't "do anything" for her..... She started off with Andora, then even almost gave a final answer on Tonga, then ended up with Palau???!!! what a stupid bitch.

[EricAKATheBelgianGuy]

Also, she said that she based her choice for Palau off of Boutros-Boutros Gali. But Boutros-Boutros Gali is Egyptian, which obviously isn't one of the choices, so I don't understand how she made that connection.

[freezazoid]

THEN SHE STARTS TALKING ABOUT HOW THE ANSWER BEFORE WAS "A" SO THIS ONE PROBABLY ISN'T UNLESS THE PRODUCERS ARE TRYING TO THROW HER OFF???!! for getting so far in the game, that must be the dumbest logic I've heard from a contestant.

[whoisglh555]

She should have listened to Regis, he was trying to talk her out of risking it... Too greedy!

[Krisx69]

FAIL

[Zvonok]

Why was she guessing around the answers? If she doesn't know it, why not just walk away with 250K. Not a bad payday.......

[LolGui]

I would've sympathised if she wasn't such a sore loser.

[Galantski]

@LolGui True, but her sour response did make for some good comic relief! : )

[sykickg]

lol wow...she totally ignored his warnings of $250k being at stake. It could have been hers.

[NebraskaFan77]

Damn I felt bad for her.

[walterlv01]

This girl had a lot of guts. Flat-out. Say what you want about her reportedly taking 52 minutes to decide on the answer but she had the guts to go for it which 99 percent of us wouldn't have.

I stand up and applaud her.

[frotwenty]

guts-shmuts. she should have had the sense to walk away from a question she didn't know the answer to.

[TheCoveShorts]

guts arent always a good thing... very dumb decision by this selfish hoe

[shutout20038]

there is a difference between guts and stupidity. losing $218,000 on a multiple choice question you clearly don't know the answer to is not gutsy or brave. Is it gutsy to jump off a building for 1 million dollars? no its stupid.

[rivlean8]

haha OWND!

[brianwayne72]

Oh well...there goes a home and a car. Forget these people. They should have bum millionaire, or crack-head millionaire. Everyone would leave after the $500 question.
