WWTBAM - Unusual Bailout

[JeopardyandWheelFan]

Chaka Khan was born Yvette Marie Stevens.

Vanilla Ice was born Robert Matthew Van Winkle.

Della Reese was born Delloreese Patricia Early.

[LostChik7]

"I just love the way he said Vanilla Iiiice." I hate it when people make fun of the way Southerners talk. We're not all stupid, we just happen to have a drawl in our speech.

[hallpriest9]

He doubted it was Vanilla Ice; therefore the 50:50 should have eliminated it.

[missingnote]

Oh Christ, why do these people use the 50:50 when they know it's not going to give them the answer? Total waste of a 50:50. Contestants think it's the weakest lifeline, so they like to use it and hope the answer will come to them. This guy said it wasn't B, and he got B and D after the 50:50, but he still used another lifeline. Ridiculous.

[Jesse0300]

Do you want some ass in your drink?

[milnusthegnome]

Is this guy stupid or is it the question?....im gasping

[TheMarksmenCat]

Everybody knows vanilla ice is the shitty artist who ripped off one of Queens song

[nictherocker]

Vanilla ass XD

[mitsahneobendrauf]

[uniontown50]

[surroundedbyfuckwads]

vanilla AAAs

god damn i fuckin hate that southern american accent.

it is the most asshole sounding accent ever

[vladimirhorowitz]

Your comment and username is sad, man. I hope you find peace and happiness someday.

[uniontown50]

You said it all.

[hvislysettaros2010]

@surroundedbyfuckwads I totally agree. I live in the south :(

[fockya]

dana is a fuckin girls name

dam there both stupid rob can winkle w.e the fuck is his name

[vladimirhorowitz]

Dana is a unisex name, friend.

[usuck8yr0ld]

wow so dumm everyone knows vanilla ices name is George THe Peorge

[DEATHEXISTFOREVER]

vanilla ice was born robert van winkle if i remember right

[nlafavore]

At least he decided to walk instead of joining so many people who have left with $1,000.

[beenn15]

he got stooped by the word "Queen" since he has no idea who Queen Latifah is.

[mcavic]

Why don't phone-a-friends use the Internet? This question could have been answered in 10 seconds with Wikipedia.

[nlafavore]

Wikipedia wasn't even launched until January 15, 2001.

[JD335]

ok Im srry, but isnt Vanilla Ice a fucking guy? so even if u ddnt know Queen Latifah's real name u should still know that Vanilla Ice is a guy

[Teamsleeper]

dana can be used a guy's name too

[DEATHEXISTFOREVER]

dana can be both

[Fynlar]

This got a lot less unusual after Millionaire started using the clock. It forced early burning of lifelines for many contestants, and a lot of them were left dry before reaching the 2nd milestone.

[PKMNwww411]

he should've just trusted his gut instead of burn another lifeline.

[nlafavore]

Well, had he done that, he would have been right.

[leoshil]

vanilla ass ?

[Javy2727]

lol, thats alot of money for a dirty redneck....

[quiznationrules]

I knew it was Queen Latifah.

[jordancurk]

i knew it before the answers came up

[PunkRockPat420]

Everybody knows Vanila ices real name is Robert van winkle

[DoubleMRecordsTV]

well 4 thousand is better than nothing

[uhhmario]

hmm....dat was so easy =p vanilla ice would get shot with a name like dat xp

[ElevenInfinity]

his accent sounded so country that he could almost pass as gangsta

[ksingler22]

i r-uh-eely hu-ate to yews 2 lye-f-lines.

vanilla ice's real name is robert van winkle.

i thought most people knew that...

[jmerridew124]

Wait... Dana is a girl name... Isn't Vanilla Ice a dude?

[jhtdjthjtjht]

yeeee

[jmerridew124]

So that means that this particular contestant is absolute fail.

[jhtdjthjtjht]

pretty much

[JackinOffJesus]

At least he didn't walk away with $1,000 like many contestants have.

[Xbox360Gamer7]

Ever heard of Dana White the president of the UFC?

[jmerridew124]

I didn't say there weren't exceptions, I was speaking on a general scale.

[eventhisnameistaken9]

I honestly don't see how anyone can ridicule this decision.. he had no lifelines and no strong inclination towards either answer. Sure, it doesn't make for good TV, but I think he made a sound decision.

[jusslemmecit]

Dana Carvey

Dana White

[ReuWil]

Know of a lot of guys named Dana...not sure why everyone here thinks that's a girl's name only - just like Ashley - both guys and girls are named that.

[pozner343]

Dana can be a boys name and girls name ur all a bunch of hicks....ever heard of dana barros?? only dana man i can think of atm but the name is unisexual like carfan said

[fsxpilot123456]

lol he said vanillllaaaaa iiiccceee!!

[July222009Eclipse]

and?? Dana is a man's name to, Ever hear of Dana Carvey?

[carfan2k2]

all you idiots saying that dana is solely a girl's name are the fuckn retards!

dana is a unisexual name.. it can be a guy's name as well

[xflaimgirlx]

wow wat a dumb ass! vanilla ice is a man lmfao dumb ass

[July222009Eclipse]

Wow, your the retard, obviously from my point of view, your saying that All Dana's are female, your WRONG, Ever hear of Dana Carvey?

[ReuWil]

Plenty of people both male and female named Dana - you don't know that and call this guy dumb?

[nlafavore]

Well, if you're not a gambler, then this show is not for you.

[anhtran]

what a retard...QUEEN LATIFAH...~ DANA!??

vanilla ice = MALE?!?!?

wtf... how can someone be this stupid.

[anhtran]

No i've never heard of Dana Carvey. If you're gonna try to prove a point use someone that is a household name. Oh wait. There is none. You fail. And vanilla ice is the whitest person you can possibly meet. Why would anyone even assume his real name was Dana.

[July222009Eclipse]

Because Dana is both a girls name and a Men's name.

[raider2121]

i hear texas

[tylerkoehn]

At least retarded people don't know they are retarded...

[appleseed82694]

Stupid hillbilly prick.

[martinakapenny]

It was pretty damn obvious, vanilla ice is a guy and how many guys do you know called dana?

[TlGBC]

dana is a name for some black men

[holyshitlolz]

Dana Carvey.

[webstar17]

Dana White, he's kind of famous

[theantiantichrist]

At least one. And, I wouldn;t have known vanilla ice was a man; how many men do you know called vannila?

Dana Carvey? From Waynes world?

[jmbd07]

you owned him good job

[niguaahahahaha]

WHAT THE FUCK!! REALLY! he musta thought it was some kinda trick question.

[jillyspice]

I knew the answer! But I love Queen Latifah's voice I know she went under Dana Owens on her album.

[CelineGoddessDion]

he souldve gone for it after that 50/50...the phone call was a bad idea

[chamomille]

Why was this such a hard question? "Dana Owens" is obviously a girl's name. Vanilla Ice is a dude, hence, not Dana Owens. What a waste.

[Sashinator0]

Dana is occasionally a guy's name. For example Comedian Dana Carvey

[markymark443]

wtf he had the right answer all along!

[ChiSportsNut18]

This guy is to cheap to risk $3,000 on a 50% chance... dumb redneck.

[Acherontic1]

Smart move by him. No point in making fun of it..

[gmt921]

I remember this question, I used to love watching Millionaire back in 2000.

[Justinpfx]

Eh, he would've lost anyway

[ZackValentine]

''Aaa Thaaaank It's Vanillaaaaa Aaace...''

Holy Shit, I hate that accent.

[Zvonok]

What's wrong with his accent? I can understand what he is saying.

[tehretardedbunny]

vanilla Asss.. hahah

[Skope111]

[fauszto]

lol he talks like a black guy vanilla ass lol

[DeniedPower]

Guys fuck off, he actually made a VERY smart decision. Sure he's not the kind of person who will win the 1 million, but he's the kind of person who's happy with what he's got

[kaychi]

how do you get on the show?

[AlGoreJeffFisher2008]

[kai21787]

haha sounded like he said vanilla ass

[mtjjames]

theres this one movie episode of millionaire that i have on tape from like 8 years ago, where the contestant walked with 4k. He used all his lifelines before the $1000 question

[RomeijnLand]

Can you upload that?

[apoohb73]

HEY THAT WAS MY 8TH GRADE HISTORY TEACHER...

[jcnme27]

[unrealhit88]

[GuitarPlayerSkaterdu]

Are you serious? I even knew that!

[nortexoid]

WEAK.

[holypokey]

I really enjoy watching your videos and I just saw the "Brian Fodera Returns" vid. Do you have the complete zero dollar winners episodes? if you do, would you mind posting them? I've really wanted to see them.

Thanks soooooo much

(also, do you have any more 500k or 1mil dollar winners?)

thanks again for posting the best vids!

[Greenlava1]

at first i thought he said vanilla ass

[charlesworthd]

Weak at best.

[wschmrdr]

There was a person on Disney's Walk in and Win week that bailed out with $300.

[gameshowguy2000]

Well, on the Oscar Special I have on tape: Following the llama of Jon Futrell on the $200 question about who hosted more Oscar awards presentations than anyone else (he chose Billy Crystal, but the correct answer was Bob Hope; I don't know who else would've said that), Roy Schmidt bailed out with $4K on a question about the ship in Jaws. He thought it was the USS Indianapolis. He would've been right.

[tehretardedbunny]

was i the only person laughing my ass of wen he sed vanilla ASS repeatedly haha... even regis made fun of it

[mecha03]

It's more common to see someone walk with $8,000 or $16,000. $4,000 has only been walked away with a handful of times in the syndicated version of the show. But frankly, it's not as rare as you think for people to get to the $25,000 level, especially in the last few years. This season alone so far has had several contestants going very deep.

[Wolfman12395]

Only one person has made it to $500,000 within the last 3 years almost, and in the Regis days, $500,000 was hit usually once or twice per month.

[mecha03]

Lyn Payne made it to the $1 Million question on November 1st 2007, another contestant made it to $500,000 on TV Week several weeks later but bailed even though he would have been right. One year before in November '06, Ogi Ogas made it to the $1 Million, not to mention some other contestants who you can see in the video on Millionaire's site. Granted, Regis did have a lot more high dollar winners, but the point still stands. It's not rare to see people achieving $25,000.

[viewdis200]

Was it the question involves Khrushchev's shoe? I remember seeing it.

[Grygazol]

Find John Carpenter's run (First million dollar winner). Those questions were incredibly easy. The show was on quite a bit, but nowhere near as much as the syndicated version, so they're probably not trying to give out $1 million too frequently.

[Wolfman12395]

I know, it was crazy. Also look up Dan Blonsky's $1M question, which was also incredibly easy. Today the questions are much, MUCH harder.

[sugarbobaker]

A girl named Michelle Glover, on May 20, 2005 on the syndicated show, at Walt Disney World, walked away with $300 after using up all three lifelines prior to that. It was Walk in and Win Week, GO FIGURE! That is the record for the lowest walked away with on any version of the show.

[viewdis200]

The syndicated version questions are much harder than Regis hosted. Most people would leave before $25k level or get it wrong.

[Wolfman12395]

It happens on today's millionaire ALL the time. It's actually not very common to see someone to get to the $25,000 level on today's show.
