Wheel Of Misfortune

[0413dec]

It's good, that he was able to solve the puzzle. I was thinking that after 4 bankrupts, he should've just called it a day, and went home. Lol.

[KoraggRules]

don't feel bad about its just a game but at least you got a trip

[purplekiller13]

the surprise should be real life bankrupcy

[rickhh1]

That was tough. Must be really hard to maintain composure with the more bankrupts you hit.

In the end, at least you got a prize in the end, instead of those who walked out of there with no wins and a small "consolation" prize.

[unoeagles]

Could have saved yourself a lot of trouble if you solved that Before & After puzzle before getting your 3rd bankrupt - seemed like you knew what it was.

[jemerson722]

Some woman only spun bankrupts and lose a turns. At the end, she said, "I didn't come all the way out here just to spin bankrupts and lose a turns!"

[JeopardyandWheelFan]

@jemerson722 When was that?

[nin10dobros]

three keters... l. o. l.

[Brendanbj101]

St. Toms is a bad as a bankrupt

[thisisntagoodname]

Well, did you at least enjoy the trip? I would've been quite happy with that. :3

[JamesThWilliams]

You won a trip to st thomas what the hell is wrong with that.

[justsomebeast]

ummm, you should watch. they hooked you up.

[AvatarOfAvatar]

At least the dude finally won something, that's the most bankrupts I think Ive ever seen hehe. Congrats bro, hope you had a great time!

[Stargaezr0]

At least you gotta free trip!

[vJWv]

what's the answer to "first day of s_ri__ to your feet" ?

[GameShowGamer]

@vJWv SPRING

[Hiei2k7]

@vJWv

Sunrise I think. that was my guess.

[hennessyrob]

How was St. Tomas?

[MatthewFrazierr]

i really dont get this at all? thats happend many times???????

[vaibanez17]

cool but at least you went to St. Thomas dude

[SFO14]

well, to be honest you got greedy on the 3rd one, should've just solved the puzzle

[pinoyajizzle06]

The other James and I went to St. Thomas

[pinoyajizzle06]

You can do better James. At least you won a trip to St. Thomas.

[pinoyajizzle06]

WHAT? No money.

[hekkoCZ]

Oh, you poor thing. :) At least you got the Surprise!

[walterlv01]

Hey a week's vacation to St. Thomas is, as Pat Sajak would say, "not bad for a half-hour of work."

[Geedub214]

That's truly f'ed up...

[mmb101]

what the fuck is he doing at 1:34

[horrorbro]

at 0:11 0:17 0:39 hit bankrupt 4 times

[Aamigo19126]

Could you please post the entire episode?

[matthew3alex]

What year is this from?

[TheWiseguy2012]

Dude i swear this show is rigged. Anyway, you should have seen a couple of seasons ago. For 2 rounds in a row, each of the 3 players got at least 2 bankrupts in a row in each round. It was really funny.

[geniusinmath]

$5,840 is what you could have won.

[TGillings23]

Yes

[geniusinmath]

Actully it is the Wheel's Fault. You could have won nothing at all. You tried all you could. You lost total in Cash $1,250.

[DarthTaz]

How can an unrigged wheel be to blame? He just sucks at spinning the wheel.

[geniusinmath]

You did try to do your very best.

[OstyNinja]

how is it the wheels fault? your on drugs dude!

[geniusinmath]

I don't do any drugs that are bad for you.

[TheHitcher02]

damn

[LGgansta]

gnarly what a bummer

[xxKewlioKat7xx]

atleast you went to st. thomas..

[necroman305]

That shit happens to me constantly when I play the playstation version

[MshrF]

lol.

[Skwigelf100]

It's your fault for spinning the wheel with the same amount of strength every time.

[bluntgard]

I would have put a brogan through somthing!

[ericasalad]

Hehe I like your surprise dance. Chin up my friend!

[MsGina]

That would be my LUCK!

[valdezserg]

I didn't know Jimmie Kimmel was on wheel of fortune!

[imafoolhahaha]

this is you? you look like andy bernard from the office

[sostellar04]

hahaha i was thinking the same thing

[BoNursukker]

haha he does

[20NPgirl12]

it wasn't that much of a misfortune, you went on a vacation!

[DarthTaz]

It's amazing how he sucks spinning the wheel while his wife gets to play Plinko

[NinjaGhostScorpion]

This would've had me pissed off.

[CaptainFeigh]

This is actually you? Cool.

[skaterdude14b]

i mean trip

[skaterdude14b]

was the cruise as nice as they made it out to be?

[EthanBond007]

hey u got the trip, the guy next to u got nothing

who cares if u got bankruptcy 4 times u still got the trip instead of nothing

how was it?

[setheriah]

but now they dont show pat sajaks bankrupts anymore and i hate that that was the fun on when pat or chuck spins the bankrupts prizes lose a turns etc. on wollerys version they do play the sound effect when he hit the bankrupt and do remember one episode where he went bankrupt bankrupt lose a turn and bankrupt and just went nuts...

[jmoney11]

did this happen in 1997 or 1998

[jpeg1140]

Recorded Dec 1997--aired 1998

[hewholikestodraw]

Oh I thought the Surprise was going to be your Bankrupt again.

[thatgirlkelly1]

lol...me too!

Even though it wouldn't have mattered ayway since he wouldn't have lost anything, but at;east he got a cool trip out of it!!!

[Hiei2k7]

@hewholikestodraw

If that were the case, I'd pull out a gun and stop when I couldn't get any more bullets.

[tornado909]

jeez

[tommy76tx]

You may have hit 4 bankrupts but did win a surprise. It not their fault for that, you just had bad luck spinning the wheel. I would be thrilled just to be on the show even if I didn't win anything. I would get at least $1000 just for being on.

[thatgirlkelly1]

"it's not their fault"

That's what you think...muahahahaha!

[SamKalirai]

why didn't you just solve on the third one dude?

[DukeOnkled]

No, don't do this--don't do this! DON'T...

[mistifers]

Why don't you watch the show anymore? That seems silly. At least you didn't go home empty handed.

[ww150]

I would be swearing so loud at the fourth bankrupt.

[Frehely13]

@ww150 That's what I did when playing the game on my Nintendo 64!!! I swear, BANKRUPTS 4F***ING BANKRUPTS!!!!

[sabremookie]

oh man, I am so jealous of you that you got to be on TV! Don't be mad, you wont he prize. Lot's of ppl play and win nothing! I wish I was on wheel of fortune, even if I didn't win. I am still jealous of you even though you are upset lol,

[animfan1]

That's just like hitting a whammy on Press Your Luck.

[patrickballoonman]

Yeah, I know what you mean. Except that on PYL, four whammies put you out of the game. No such rule applies here, thank goodness.

[XtremeWeirdo]

I understand it's upsetting to hit Bankrupt four times in a row. But if that's the reason why you haven't watched WoF since then, then I think there's a few things you need to get over. It's just a TV show.

[KRISHANKO]

its a conspiracy

[horrorbro]

oh that cost me!

[General1lol]

World Record?... lol

[Mizpeachez305]

now that's some good bankrupts

[Powerjohn110]

oh wow

[jprg1966]

At least you won the trip!

[magno172]

well i learned this lesson a long time ago....when bad things happen now...good things happen later..(and vice-versa)and its true!(and im only 13 lol)

[XxDTxX]

So you're saying that all the bad things that have happened to me... will count for some good things? I mean, I've lost my family to a fire, I work at a meat store selling slightly rotten meat. I get mugged very often because I work late at night and I have aids. HOW CAN THINGS GET BETTER!!!! ARG THAT's IT I CAN'T TAKE IT! ASUG ~!H@!!

jk.

[scubasteve0225]

sir...u have issues

[glidinclyde]

props for posting this. at least u won a trip!

[diniefofinie]

lmao

i love how he keeps clapping even though he's landing on bankrupt

[viewdis200]

I think the misfortune happens almost recently. This one guy kept landing on bankrupts. I think he got to $1000 tossup. He had to solve one puzzle with only $1200.

[jameygamer]

You don't watch the show anymore? You won a trip to St. Thomas after all of those Bankrupts, for Pete's sake! You eventually came out on top, so why are you frustrated?

[spguardian]

anymore surprise wedge episodes b/c that was on e of the best WOF moments of the 90s along with the returning champions portion.

[polkiujhytgfredswq]

What year is this episode of WOF in?

[jpeg1140]

1998

[DylanGaine]

did we really need all those editors commentaries telling us bankruptcies were coming?

[tubeharmon]

My sympathies to you. I know there are people with bigger problems but even if you put a starving refugee on Wheel of Fortune, they would be bummed out to get that many bankrupts.

[mattyblast]

I haven't watched the show since my appearance either...I always get envious of the people who fare better than I did. Glad you had an enjoyable trip!

[jellobabe123456]

CBCVBCV

[dermusik]

How was bluebeard's castle?

[jpeg1140]

It was awesome--thanks! YOu should go there!

[mylesspike119]

how's the St. Thomas trip after winning the SURPRISE wedge on the wheel.

[viewdis200]

prize was shunned, the taxes

[popluv]

man i suck at wheel of fortune

[mylesspike119]

i don't like the white Lose A Turn space on the wheel.

[smashwhammy]

If that run of luck happened on Press Your Luck, you would be defeated by Whammies.

[jpeg1140]

I still have nightmares...hey, but what a ride...

[marky4500]

Can you please upload this full episode (including the intro with the Sony Pictures Studios)?

[jpeg1140]

I don't have it all available yet--thanks!

[thejeffman5]

that sucks, you could've gotten a lot more... but you did get the vacation, so I guess it paid off?

[mylesspike119]

Can you upload this episode?

[quadrupleplay]

DON'T SPIN SO HARD!

(see WOF - who needs letters?)

[alaturk9]

wow, that was you?

[morrls74]

Bah you are too smart for that show ;)

[dngl21]

at least you got a sweet trip out of it!

[husnad]

well at least you can dance good.

[ardentgailla]

That is some serious bad luck. At least you got the puzzle solved and you knew what you were doing. Hope you had a great trip.

[nightfire620]

Poor bloke, deffo had the "black" wheel that night!

[Cloud551]

Damn.

[Eruption1001]

was the trip good?

[jpeg1140]

It was awesome--but I haven't watched the show since it aired

[PKMNwww411]

Well, you broke the tie for second at least. you had a great time in St. Thomas.

[kurtcrowbain]

Sorry, buddy, but I have no sympathy for people who can't control that wheel. I've seen some guys on there before that can just keep hitting the same spot.

[gameshowguy2000]

This is either the fall of 1997 or Spring of 1998. The puzzleboard may have debuted in the Spring of 1997, but in the final months of that season ('96-'97), they were using the previous wheel (lights above it, from the cameras' POV). This particular wheel debuted in the '97-'98 season (with no lights above it).

[aric2007]

Yep. Haha. But man he's lucky.

[aric2007]

Don't worry... Try auditioning again... Then they'll let you back on the show. Hopefully this time you won't fail.

[whitismygurl07]

you can't go on more than once

[jpeg1140]

I haven't watched Wheel of Fortune since then...I was hoping they would let me back on

[map586]

That would be a good week, take all of the 3 and 4 bankrupt spinners and let them have another chance.

[gcuber]

At least you got something out of it. I haven't been on the show but it really sucks if you keep getting Bankrupts all the time.

[pannoni1]

These days, the "Prize Puzzle" is like a "Free Surprise."

[jpeg1140]

Spring of 1997....

[bando26]

What weird scoreboards! They're made out of lights! What, was this the '80s?

[RAS310]

That is called eggcrate display. They use it a lot on "The Price is Right." The scoreboards on "Wheel" weren't changed to monitors until 2002.

[bando26]

Oh, sorry, I was being facetious.
