I'm guessing Drew and maybe the oldest sister have finished college at this point. Even though they didn't win the full $1,000,000 I'm sure $500,000 has and will continue to go a long way for all of the kids' college funds.
If the level 10 was realistic, It would be a bit harder than level 9. But it is 5 times as hard as level nine because the producers can't afford to lose that amount of money. I bet they were hoping for them to lose, hence the impossible game. I'd like someone to actually beat that and if you do it in less than three times you are a god.
1:35-1:56 - *Guy Fieri:* Ladies and gentlemen...I hope you that understand you've just witnessed history in the 60-second circle. Five kids from San Jose, California, on their own, working together as a family and a team, have just won...*$500,000!*
$1 Million will be so much better like a $500,000 or $50,000 in my opinion. But, these group are so amazing to trying this challenge, i so salute for what you've done on Supercoin!
@j4lambert It's actually the 9th attempt, you forgot the Summer of Minute to Win It, where 6 audience members were given the chance to compete. In the game, the regular full fledge game, battling all 10 levels with the 3 lives, this is the first attempt. Brad was the first contestant to ever play Supercoin in the manner that it is supposed to be attempted. Regardless, they kicked ass!
A men in Argentina was going to play it, but he decided to take home the 500000 argentine pesos. He won level 9, matching Grant Nelson and Bishop Family mark
This is the first time a team played a level 10 challenge. However supercoin has been attempted several other times in last man standing, last beauty standing, and million dollar mission.
Whenever the Minute to Win It logo comes up without Guy saying "We'll be right back", I just say "Commercial!". When the countdown goes, I'm usually like "3, 2, 1, Commercial!".
This is indeed the 1st as the other two had ten players and after eliminating nine other players the last man/women standing had one chance to play for the million. Its the 1st time ever based on the regular game rules with the 3 - 4 lives and the optioin to leave with a certain amount of money. So this really is the 1st time ever in MTWI history. They would of set a record as the youngest millionaire's in tv history. Except the 19-yr old girl who would of tied Jamie Sadler from Power Of 10.
If you watch, the key is hitting off the side of the table, not the middle like people tend to believe. Brad had the right idea, because if you allow yourself to bounce the coin off the side of the table, then you’ve got a great chance at getting near the jug.
5:29-5:41- *Guy Fieri:* No one has ever gone into the million-dollar challenge...with 3 lives...and ten extra seconds. - Yeah, this was the first time ever.
@LosAngelesElevators It's super luck based, with enough practice sure but it's not one of those things where you can go out there and say, I can do this in a minute, no doubt.
@Ghostkid825 And also remember six episodes had a Million Dollar Mission where they pre-selected one member of the audience to play Supercoin. None of them won $1,000,000.
Not to be a back seat driver, but I think they should have kept one person for all 3 tries. With these types of challenges you have to build the muscle memory, so the more you do it, the better you get. But, they did real well to get $500K.
Well, there is a rule that prohobits a team member from going three times in a row on solo games. Drew had gone on level 5, 8 and 9, so drew could not play the first game of supercoin.
