The song is "On the Franches Mountains" by the Jura Orchestra. I get it stuck too... so I play it on repeat and sing along until my wife wants to kill me, the dogs are scared of me, and my teenage daughters look at me like I have three heads. 🤣

I was hoping for the one when the climber fell on the first try. I was watching that one when I was a few years old, in the early 1980s. That was always my favorite game when I was little because if they win, you get to see them win, but if they lose, you get to see the climber fall. I remember the time the climber fell on the first try, and I loved it! Bob said he doesn't think that has happened before. I wish I could find that clip. By the way, my mom watched The Price Is Right when I was a baby, and my first spoken words were "Bob Barker", said stretched out like his introductions at the beginning of the episodes.

@kevinestes9800 8 күн бұрын

Or 20/30/40. Seriously, if I played this game live, I would make big bucks through the prizes alone. Cliffhangers, Clock Game, Ten Chances, and Range Game are embarrassing to lose if you don't know the unwritten rules (same with Safe Crackers, but knowing the zero rule gives you a 50% chance of winning, and Shell Game only gives you a 100% chance of winning if you know prices).

4:32 I think the prices of the small prizes in Cliff Hangers are always progressively more expensive (unlike Spelling Bee). so it's extra annoying when they guess the second or third prizes are less expensive than the previous prize.

Nothing will compare to the episode in 1976 with guest host Dennis James. He decided the climbers name was Fritz. Model Janice was married to Fritz Stammberger who had disappeared mountain climbing in Afghanistan the year before. When the contestant lost, he commented, "There goes Fritz!" Janice ran off the stage in tears.

Dennis James wasn't aware of this until after the episode was over when he saw Janice backstage still crying and wailing which prompted him to say "Honey, what's wrong?" as announcer Johnny Olson, producer Mark Goodson and several production members came over to comfort her during that difficult time. Holly Hallstrom, who hasn't been on the show yet, would be her "cuddly toy" during her traumatic period.

Drew Carey named him Cliff. In the earliest episodes, Bob Barker named him Hans while Dennis James chose the name Fritz. Immediately following the Fritz controversy, he was simply known as the mountain climber.

Well, he fell off prompting Bob Barker to mention that "Confucius said not good to sleep during Price Is Right". That statement was funny as h**l!

My favorite was I think during the 90s or early 2000s when the first item was a cheap little toy guitar for kids. It cost like $15 but the guy playing guessed an outrageous price like $1000 as though it was a real professional guitar. Bob actually bent the rules and gave him two chances to guess again then when the contestant stuck with his obviously wrong guess Bob seemed legitimately annoyed telling the producers to hurry up and get the guy up the mountain so the show could move on.
