When you grow up and get a real job, how far away the sun is stops mattering, and you have to fill your head with actually important information. This is why they ask these kinds of questions.
@johnnyisagoodbird When you get to 1 million dollars, he didn't have easy questions otherwise, you very probably know that, even though "you have to fill your head with actually important information". And then again, your head is not a hard drive from which you can simply delete useless stuff.
This question wasn't hard, I would put it for like 16000 or 32000 dollars.
Anybody can sit behind a keyboard and say "I could have done that", or "That was so easy", etc...the entire country was watching this guy and he was under an enourmous amount of pressure, I guarantee most of you would have choked.
I wonder if the computer accidentally skipped ahead 1 question after he answered his $500,000 question, and this was supposed to be the next contestants $100 question? BTW, why does the $1,000,000 question music sound different than it normally sounds?
Not only is that a ridiculously easy question, but once again, you could guess it based merely on the answers provided. Three of the four answers have 9 and then 3 in that order, which rules out 39. Half of the answers have two integer digits, putting 9.3 and 193 are on the extremes. Every answer was clearly constructed around the number 93, a computer could have guessed this probabilistically by doing a quick deviation calculation. A MUCH harder set of answers would be 63, 73, 83, 93.
The bottom line is the guy won the million dollars with the questions that were set before him, no matter how "easy" we think they might be. We should stop analyzing the difficulty of the questions and saying "this question was too easy or difficult for a particular dollar level" and just enjoy the damn show.
This must be a joke, right? In our country there was only one person who answered 13th question correctly. Some of the questions were so difficult, that we couldn't find answers even in books, internet etc.
I remember that the producers started demanding harder questions after a few episodes when this show started. Good grief the million dollar question was something I learned in the 3rd grade.
Of all the questions for 1million dollars IMO, this is the only one I can say is easy. The others (some) I got right, guessing with logic, this is fucking easy.
You even typed it out urself, its single digit multiplication, do u honestly think thats hard for anybody older than 10? You seriously underestimate the intelligence of people.
Also the answer needs to be converted to miles, so its actually 8x60x300000000/1.6. Even so, its a joke.
Wow the million dollar question is easy, even if u don't know the exact answer right away. Light travels at 3x10^8 m/s and it takes 8 minutes for it to travel from the sun to the earth. Do the math, its child's play
dude without a calculator or even pen and paper,im pretty sure you wont be able to calculate that in your head with the spotlight and whole audience looking down at you
Crazy: sometimes I miss after 4 or 5 questions, but this time I either knew or worked every single answer but two of them... maybe I could have made it with the lifelines too!
Crazy: sometimes I miss after 4 or 5 questions, but this time I either knew or worked every single answer but two of them... maybe I could have made it with the lifelines too!
@OUSOONERSFTW You can answer it in 2nd grade, but can you answer it now if you are sitting in the hot seat? Even if you can answer the final question doesn't mean you can answer all of the questions. If you are that confident, then you probably should go and win it.
dude whe nthe question was first asked....i asked myself out loud "are you fucking kidding me?" and then hid my eyes...because i should be a millionaire. it took me1.1 seconds to say 93 million.
Let me guess, you're either in an astronomy class, or have been in one recently, right? It's not exactly common knowledge, and like the guy said, he probably hasn't had to know astronomy for 20 years.
Basic mathematics would've won me a million. :D To be honest I don't know the distance (come on I am only 18) but I know from a child's book that it takes light 8 minutes to reach the Earth. From a basic physic I know that the speed of light is approx. 300 000 km/s (yes I'm from europe we have km) then I counted what distance it will reach in 8 minutes... boom million dollar answer that I didn't know :D (I know that mile=1,7 km) and I didn't use a paper so I could do it from hot seat... :D
I think this question WAS easy, but because of the answer choices, not because of the question itself. If the choices were something like 55M, 64M, 79M, and 93M, Dan might not have gone for it, because, as Dan noted, all of the choices revolve around the right answer.
How easy can this get??? i knew this fucking answer when i was 6 for fuck sake! i would answer this in a second and Regis Would be like wow that was fast and ill be like well... yea if its that easy then yes you can answer it fast :P
I remember watching this guy on TV with my Dad. I was wearing a shirt with a picture of the earth on it, and around the top of it it said "The Earth is approximately 93 miles away from the sun." It was quite funny.
OMG, how can this really easy question be a '' One Million question ''? In Hungary everybody knows the aswer who ever learned physics or just ever turned on the tv...
you may say this is easy for a kid... but what 30+ man, astronomers notwithstanding, regularly use this information??? Therefore, this ain't as easy as it looks, IMHO.
last question was sooo easy............i knew that light speed is 300 000 km per second, and light from sun gets to earth in 8,5 minutes............in kilometres it is 150 000 000 and 1 mile is 1,6km..........easy calculation.......150 Mkm is also AU
@adobe15 Hey, I did the exact same calculation.. in my country (a spanish speaking one) SI units are used instead of English units, so i had to convert between miles and kilometers as well.. kind of difficult to do the calculation in your mind though, because in the show you can't use a calculator, but really easy overall....
@oomblikkies carpenter got lucky, ok most of the questions were common knowledge, i would have gotten at least 250 thousand, the ones i was shaky on were dumb luck for him, he went to rutgers, they had the building names after the guy who found the cure for polio, his wifes high school had work done by the guy who did the glass pyramid, seriously.. it was a ton of dumb luck and common knowledge. that whole episode pissed me off when i watched the whole thing the questions were too easy
39 is too close . so after seeing 9.3 is there to confuse the real answer .. so 93 is must be the correct one. this kind of trick answer always in exam.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Its easy because even if you dont know the answer, you can just calculate it in your head. Everyone knows the speed of light. The time to the earth from the sun is 8min. You got time and speed, you can automatically calculate distance.
Yeah, why would anyone possibly assume that there are other intelligent people on the planet....I mean you realize that by insulting this guys comment all you're doing is drawing light to the fact that you're a retard.
How does anyone not know v=d/t. How did they even graduate elementary school? or get their driver's license? When your driving 100km/h (Speed) you go 100 km (distance) in 1 hours (time). Speed =distance/time, its blatently obvious.
well.. this works if you know this about the 8 mins.. but what if not? as one could know about this, one could also know about 93 million. so your idea is not very clever...
Don't thumbs down him. Distance = Rate x Time the speed of light and how long it takes light to reach earth from the sun are relatively common knowledge if you graduated high school or watch the discovery channel. Thus, if you're not an invalid, you should be able to figure it out.
you just dont get it.. this is a very hard question, a tricky one.. this is what would be happening in your head: "omg i know its 93 but this is a 1M dollar question.. what if its somekind of a trap ? what if its not?!?" and eventualy you would take the 0.5 and go home with a smile on your face
Yeah Yeah Yeah Blah Blah Blah "The ___ version is much harder than the US version" Get over it!...And you may have learned this in high school/college...but how long ago was that?...Man, I can't remember anything I learned in high school except there isn't a olympic sized pool on the roof...If you knew this answer without looking it up on Wikipedia/Google then (I'm sorry to tell you) YOU ARE A NERD. And trust me I know because I've been called that plenty of times. Hard Question Perfect answer
Not being cruel to Americans but the English version is way harder I mean way harder, but that has nothing to do with how smart people are I just think in the American version they want to see more winners and more money won its better for the show more money won more viewers better ratings more money for the network it makes sense.
The states has the smartest people in the world no question about that we just dont see them on television very often the people we see r the dumbest of the dumb & then people judge the whole country by it which is ridiculous all the smartest people in the world end up goin 2 the states to work live teach you name it if I was smart enough Id go to, its the American fuckin dream baby & everybody wants a piece of the pie especially smart people because they know which side their bread is buttered
looool the American version is so easy compared to the UK one, probably because on average the people are not as bright ( I'm sorry but it's the truth)
seriously? granted the only uk version ive seen is the major fraud one, but his million dollar question was what is a one followed by one zeros. i've seen $200 questions harder than that
i dont think as some posters do that this is such an easy question, but what makes it a bit "tilted" is in dan's own comment that "everything revolves around that number", in that you have 9.3, 93, 193. You get rid of the 2 extremes, and that may have influenced his decison.
I immediately thought 150 million kilometers, and 93 million miles was closest. Too easy.

8mins light to earth, light goes 300 000km/sec.. 10sec x 300 000 --> 3 000 000 x 6 = 18 000 000. so 1min is 18 000 000km
then might aswell do 4 x 36 instead of 8 x 18
36 + 36 + 36 + 36 = 144km (i used fingers for counting here)
cant remember exactly how the converting to miles goes but it definitely has to be 93miles
thats i thought it in my mind without paper n stuff

Its easy because even if you dont know the answer, you can just calculate it in your head. Everyone knows the speed of light. The time to the earth from the sun is 8min. You got time and speed, you can automatically calculate distance.

lol at "everyone". For all your logic, you need some common sense.

really u can automatically caculate ?

Not everyone, but some could do that calculation in their head.

Why would you assume everyone knows the speed of light? Not everyone knows physics formulas either - even fundamental ones like v=d/t
hellofloyd 2 years ago
Yeah, why would anyone possibly assume that there are other intelligent people on the planet....I mean you realize that by insulting this guys comment all you're doing is drawing light to the fact that you're a retard.

How does anyone not know v=d/t. How did they even graduate elementary school? or get their driver's license? When your driving 100km/h (Speed) you go 100 km (distance) in 1 hours (time). Speed =distance/time, its blatently obvious.
StarAdmiral 2 years ago
well.. this works if you know this about the 8 mins.. but what if not? as one could know about this, one could also know about 93 million. so your idea is not very clever...

Don't thumbs down him. Distance = Rate x Time the speed of light and how long it takes light to reach earth from the sun are relatively common knowledge if you graduated high school or watch the discovery channel. Thus, if you're not an invalid, you should be able to figure it out.

Heck I knew this answer too. It's probably because they don't think people will make it this far so they don't really think through the question.

yeah, every fifth grader might know this answer, but whats the chance they would remember the answer by the time they aged enough to be on the show?
Bobaganush26 2 years ago 4
you just dont get it.. this is a very hard question, a tricky one.. this is what would be happening in your head: "omg i know its 93 but this is a 1M dollar question.. what if its somekind of a trap ? what if its not?!?" and eventualy you would take the 0.5 and go home with a smile on your face

I don't get the UK vs. USA feud. It's a never-ending battle, so why bother? Honestly, it verges on the same level of taste as "yo' mama" jokes.
Thanks for posting this video. Loved it!

Yeah Yeah Yeah Blah Blah Blah "The ___ version is much harder than the US version" Get over it!...And you may have learned this in high school/college...but how long ago was that?...Man, I can't remember anything I learned in high school except there isn't a olympic sized pool on the roof...If you knew this answer without looking it up on Wikipedia/Google then (I'm sorry to tell you) YOU ARE A NERD. And trust me I know because I've been called that plenty of times. Hard Question Perfect answer

Not being cruel to Americans but the English version is way harder I mean way harder, but that has nothing to do with how smart people are I just think in the American version they want to see more winners and more money won its better for the show more money won more viewers better ratings more money for the network it makes sense.
countys32 2 years ago
The states has the smartest people in the world no question about that we just dont see them on television very often the people we see r the dumbest of the dumb & then people judge the whole country by it which is ridiculous all the smartest people in the world end up goin 2 the states to work live teach you name it if I was smart enough Id go to, its the American fuckin dream baby & everybody wants a piece of the pie especially smart people because they know which side their bread is buttered

looool the American version is so easy compared to the UK one, probably because on average the people are not as bright ( I'm sorry but it's the truth)

seriously? granted the only uk version ive seen is the major fraud one, but his million dollar question was what is a one followed by one zeros. i've seen $200 questions harder than that

meganico98 2 years ago
i dont think as some posters do that this is such an easy question, but what makes it a bit "tilted" is in dan's own comment that "everything revolves around that number", in that you have 9.3, 93, 193. You get rid of the 2 extremes, and that may have influenced his decison.
