I don't question his achievements, they're something I could never even dream of. But, isn't it a bit sad and pathetic for a Nobel Prize Winner to go to a 5th Grade Question Contest?
@TheHeadshotM: I was just thinking that, being someone so extraordinary, he should've been invited to take part in some equally extraordinary show!!!!
OK, I don't know if anyone's told you this yet, but game shows can NOT be rigged anymore. We have standards and practices now, so even if the children knew this stuff in advance, they're not the ones winning the money.
of course, intelligence is definitely not objective but even then, the level of hard work, open mindedness, creativity, and just pure intuitive intelligence it takes to study astrophysics...it's not a surprise that only a handful of people are in that field in the world. not because it's not interesting...it's because it's DAMN hard!
@bobdolelostbad smarter-than? maybe its a 6th-grade question XDD haha how can they say they are smarter than a 5th grader if they would have learned it in the 5th grade = as smart as, not smarter than.?
@bobdolelostbad the million dollar queston is an 11th grade queston. But I think they should have called it " are you smarter than a 11th grader" not 5th. never got that.
Maybe not where you went to school, but all the questions are 100% taught in A 5th grade class. But of course they have the make the million dollar question obscure
I knew that.. that was easy...
