Is This The Worst Ask The Audience Ever?! | Who Wants To Be A Millionaire? 

2:24 John's Walk-Off felt so uncomfortable it had a certain ring saying "THANKS FOR NOTHING AUDIENCE YOU JUST RUINED MY CHANCE TO BE A MILLIONAIRE!!!" Also the way he stuck his Left Hand Up just as he was walking off looked like he was telling everyone to F*** Off

If you’re really unsure then better not to deliberate openly so as not to influence the audience. A solid minority voted for ‘tortilla’ despite him having ruled it out, which should have set alarm bells ringing!

Unfair for an early question, a lot of people would discard tortilla as it is well known as the name of another food.

No. The worst ask the audience ever was here in the US when Huey Lewis was on a celebrity charity edition. He was asked a tricky question about an animal being taken off the endangered species list. He couldn't decide the answer, so he used his 50:50 to narrow it down. He still couldn't make a decision, so he asked the audience, and they were literally split 50/50. It's right here. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-t6uVlhRRLsw.html

I’m from the US, and I’ve always called it a Frittata/Quiche. Even though that’s the Italian/French word. if you asked for a tortilla here, people would think you just wanted a plain Mexican wrap, and not the Spanish version of the dish.

I think this is a difficult question because most people associate Torilla with the Mexican wrap but in Spain it refers to a different type of dish. I only know this because I watched a food travel programme. This question should have been a higher.

Tortilla is SPANISH OMELETTE made with Fried Onion & Potatoes Churros is PORTUGUESE CHIPS Croquetas is SPANISH DUMPLINGS Gazpacho is a SPANISH SOUP

I remember one interesting instance from US Millionaire when Regis Philbin was still the host. It was a special celebrity episode, and Jason Alexander (aka George Costanza from "Seinfeld") was in the hot seat. I forget what the question was, but he felt stumped enough to use his 50:50. He then proceeded to use his Ask the Audience, and I think it was about 3% who selected one of the options already eliminated by the previous lifeline! This prompted Jason to say "I'd like to meet those people outside after the show." It was a hilarious moment. 😁

Even though "Spain" is in the question, which should help the contestant, but only once you then know the answer.. I'd say this errs too close to being a trick question.. I know they have the security of saying "there are no trick questions here.. we put Spain in the question".. Even still. I'd be pissed if that was me.

WWTBAM always say they don't use trick questions but that surely is one.

He was Llama'd. As the late Regis Philbin once said, "Where did this audience come from?!"

Didn't think Millionaire allowed trick questions? This is definitely a trick question 100%

I can think of two occasions where the contestant asked the audience and 81% of the audience voted for a particular answer and it turned out to be incorrect.

Wasn't there an American edition where only 2% got the right answer?

There were cases of audience deliberately out of sheer spite to mislead the contestant. It was in the russian version of millionaire (well, where else, could this happen ofc).

What's crazier is that they also lost someone else 63 grand! This is one of the worst audiences ever :(

I remember I was watching this show as a kid with my dad and only 5% of the audience got the question right. It was something about how many countries border a certain European country

"Give him a big hand Audience, John goes away with absolutely nothing" Remember when Chris Tarrant said that 😁

John You Go Away With ABSOLUTELY NOTHING

Shame, I live by him in Port Talbot

Playing Lifelines on a questions, does NOT guarantee you will be given The Correct Answer

Video title: Is This The Worst Ask The Audience Ever?! It's not even close. However I actually have my own say as to why you shouldn't blame the audience for letting John walk with no money. Watch as John checks around the answers after Jeremy reads them out as he was definitely sure that it is NOT a tortilla. Thus by saying it out loud he convinced the crowd to go the wrong way.

Tortilla de espana right?

Trick question 👎 There are two types of food called tortilla.
