Biggest ever fail on Millionaire Hot Seat Australia

Nova FM breakfast host Wippa now holds the record for the biggest ever fail on Australia's Millionaire Hot Seat after going home without reaching the $1,000 question! He got his own version of the show after campaigning host Eddie McGuire to let him on. You can see the whole thing here - www.novafm.com....

[@gkyriak380]

I love it when he regrets answering 'bird' and still gives the wrong answer afterwards! LMAO

[@ryandiggs750]

And then he asked is that a new nut 😅

[@CaptainChurrr]

His gf was laughing on the outside, but in the inside, she was screaming eternally

[@ethanromeril994]

That's not his girlfriend. That's someone he does the radio show with.

[@jonwhite3265]

Sarah is his producer not his girlfriend

[@danskates9508]

wasn't the worst answer but the best conversation about the answer.

[@fraiserabbit]

"is it a new type of nut? how long has that been there?" ...i got murdered by that line

[@johnclegg4993]

About 500 years ago it was discovered, so not long haha.

[@allenn7955]

Yes, it is. In America, we call it Deez Pecan Nuts

[@Kuraiinu]

Look at all the flying pecans

[@spxctreoce6457]

Kuraiinu very interesting

[@virg0_lem0nade]

"the only thing that's rooted here is you, buddy" 😂😂😂😂 cracked me up

[@EmilyJayne16]

"A pecan, like you, is a type of nut." I AM DONE XD

[@M3au]

I still think “burger ring” was a better fail ...

[@cutemimi25]

What about Welcome..."Back Kotter"?

[@brodiemillers5211]

I'm 24 and I'm smarter than Wippa, "THE ONLY THING THAT'S ROOTED HERE IS YOU BUDDY." LOL

[@damiengordon9748]

Brodie Millers "bwaaahahaahaha"

[@laurendarcy4924]

He ruled out nuts because he didn't like nuts wtf

[@millertime97jm]

I don't like nuts either, but I knew what a pecan was.

[@vik24oct1991]

That’s sad because as the host highlighted he himself is a nut.

[@Kimkim-mq8kh]

0:03 I love how he is applauding to himself just before the fail

[@justinm.1]

@1:32 Eddie’s insult should be in a shirt 😂

[@IFriedDaRice]

I bet when he gets home he will google 'pecan' and still be like... ''that can't be right... it's a root vegetable isn't it?''

[@niilsaa]

Eddie’s insults are too good lol. The contestant had a great sense of humour, we’ve all had an unfortunate brain fart but the poor fella had one on live TV 😂

[@NovaFM]

Sarah... she's a producer on Fitzy and Wippa. She was loving it!

[@guitarzan5328]

Nowhere near as humiliating as Richard Hatch failing the "What is 11x12?" question... fancy locking in "C: 123" instead of "D: 132"!!! I'm still carrying those mental scars of sheer embarrassment and that was from 15 years ago.

[@YesOkayButWhy]

Ehhh.

[@slapmyfunkybass]

Let’s give the guy a break, he had a good laugh about it.

[@HartyBiker]

Well he is a comedian

[@LaauraCatherine]

I love Australia.

[@Synch9256]

Pecan pie and whipped cream - available in every restaurant, good cafe or coffee shop in Australia. yumyummmmm

[@CaelstromPC]

Yeah, I didn't know the answer either. Lol

[@TheTruthKiwi]

@Kirk Lieu Thanks for stating the bleeding obvious Kirk, great job mate

[@jojoskittles.9177]

I literally just made the same mistake. I was like "Isn't a pecan a bird?" God, what an idiot. xD

[@sarcasm-83]

I'd remember this best from Tim Minchins lyrics to Some people have it worse: "I know I have no right, no right to cry; Some people have it much, much worse than I. I could have a serious nut allergy and be shipwrecked on an island with a crate of Snickers bars, A jar of Nutella and a fresh baked pecan piiiiie! Some people have it worse than I!"

[@cutemimi25]

I like this more than the Burger Ring question.

[@alipareedanse12]

+cutemimi25 lol

[@JonesDylan874]

Ditto.

[@moniquek7069]

Its Wippa one of the funniest people on the radio what do you expect. :D

[@ohohashley]

"What is a pecan?", wow what a question that is...

[@tadhgmccarthy9246]

I thought it was a tropical bird to lol. Never heard of pecan the nut.

[@Ultimate23Dragon]

I don't know if Australia's version of this show has Double Dip lifeline, but if this guy used that, he STILL would have got it wrong if his first 2 guesses were a tropical bird & a root vegeteble! 2:05 Wippa - "Who knew that!?" Uh, everyone! XD

[@JonesDylan874]

Nope. All you have is the Pass.

[@FreeRsGuides]

Who else didn't know the answer

[@skyderp2704]

I dinnt

[@Str3tchyL3gs]

Me

[@m-g5remoticadoalecjoshuaa.606]

Me too

[@TheTck90]

Me, but I quess it's because I'm not native english speaker. I know it in Finnish

[@martinsk2804]

In my translationsbook the word "pecan" do not exist.

[@williamhenderson9793]

i didn't even know what a pecan was lol!

[@stevemccann4166]

Remember one which was ‘What does Tiramisu mean.’ Guy chose the answer ‘Throw it away.’ Why would anyone call a cake ‘throw it away’?Correct answer was ‘Pick me up’ due to being made of coffee and the caffeine content.

[@101jir]

Poor guy was probably thinking "toucan!" Oh yep, watched the rest ofcthe video after posting that!

[@lostiiee]

Lmao this was just hilarious must share this

[@emmo5204]

I knew it was a pecan, I bet he feels a bit embarrassed lol

[@Jean_Pierre_Wehry]

Lmao "is that a new nut??" 🤣🤣

[@slimshead8100]

How in the world does anyone not know what a Pecan is? Hahahaha

[@alycelasek5786]

OMG I thought it was a tropical bird to! Don't worry wippa im with you

[@ThaoLe-lx3fx]

alyce lasek it's pelican see there is the middle "li" in this word

[@jeffrowisdabest]

This host is brutal. I love it!

[@MNM0112]

[@deadmeu]

Only thing rooted here is you mate.

[@shaunheron]

I love Wippa!

[@thegetbentsaggy]

When I heard "pecan" I thought bird as well :S haha

[@JustinArtistry]

Care for some Toucan Pie? You big nut!?

[@TheUltimateRare]

he doesn't know what a Pecan is LUL

[@brentandrew2419]

"I do like beef" wtf

[@johnclegg4993]

How long has a pecan nut been around he asked, oh only since the 16th century haha.

[@aliceinamazon6057]

Toucan Sam 🤣

[@lakerbaker69]

I have never heard of a pecan

[@newdarkneoss3985]

Only know it from pecan pie, which i guess is an american dish

[@seikibrian8641]

@vMystjc "I’ve heard of it but never knew it was a nut.' It's a nut, as well as a type of hardwood. The latter, of course, named for the tree the nut comes from. The pecan is a species of hickory, and the nut is eaten as a snack as well as made into such foods as pralines and pecan pie. The pecan is the official State Tree of Texas, and the pecan pie is the state pie.

[@radiorob7543]

Common in America.

[@LilaBear]

aahaha I hate nuts and even I knew it was a nut.... I always pick the pecans off when I get pecan danish :P

[@C21L01]

Uh... he does say at the beginning "type of nut? I don't like nuts..." THAT alone should give people the hint that there was no way he could've known the answer to this one. Only those who eat or are allergic to nuts would be aware of what type of nut is what. Eddie McGuire's face is priceless as he looks into the camera and remarks "... you wanted to come on here and make a name for yourself, Wippa of the NOVA Breakfast show in Sydney... Congratulations. You have become the 1st person in Hot Seat (Australia) history NOT to make it to the $1000 level... and 'pecan' like you is 'a type of nut'!" Seen heaps of Hot Seat episodes and usually the questions don't get hard and confusing until at least that $1000 level. Most contestants trip on the $10,000, $20,000 or $50,000 questions - NOT the $500 question!

[@keithybearman4978]

I don't like nuts but still know what a cashew,peanut,walnut, macadamia nut and a pecan nut is, he's an idiot

[@celingkatchezburger6511]

ha ha man that guy must be sooooo ashamed of him self. -kitty

[@93thebiggest]

o wow im new to the english language and after 4 years now i learn that this is called pecan ...

[@fingerbonebill1040]

What is a "pecan"? A: Root Vegetable - B: Type of Nut - C: Cut of Beef - D: Tropical Bird

[@heyitschanandler]

That question should be in the questions 5 to 15, not in the first 4 questions

[@trustfire]

In his entire life he hasn't ever heard of a pecan nut, how is that even possible???

[@johnclegg4993]

Discovered over 500 years ago and he said how long have they been around haha.

[@Zaffysgirl1998]

LOL!!! it's a root vegetable isn't it!!!! hahahah XD

[@riverkill3]

Ha, Yeah....... Everyone...... I was thinking of a too-can as well :P

[@YesOkayButWhy]

Pelican crossed with a toucan.

[@manish4416]

Pelicans left the chat..

[@bestofgames6864]

Congratulations! You have become the first person in hot seat history not make it to the $1,000 Level Pecan is of a Type of nut.

[@LMcGearty]

[@nutfukkinjob]

[@robscott7975]

[@johno6366]

[@Dylan-vd3fi]

[@TheBundychick82]

[@-________-9267]

[@robyndean7064]

Wippa made a name for himself for being a typical Aussie bloke who doesn't care about nuts :)

[@goletagator5840]

"is that a new nut? Hahahahahahhahahahahah

[@TheMegasonicb]

I learnt that a pecan was a nut today -_- Such luck!
