A jaw-dropping story claims a game show contestant just lost after a 21-month-winning streak.
Amazingly, it's true.
It happened in France.
On July 6, a 22-year-old named Émilien was dethroned after a run of 646 wins.
He made his first appearance on the game show “12 Coups de midi” on September 25, 2023.
His incredible run became a national sensation, as he set the world record for most solo game show appearances.
During his run, Émilien won $2.9 million in cash and other prizes, along with 23 cars.
For perspective, Ken Jennings' record run on Jeopardy lasted 74 games, during which he won $2.5 million.
