Who wants to be a millionaire (All Winners) US

Originally I was going to do the UK version but I then realised that I couldn’t for all of them because of LDS and copyright so I decide to do a different country
And let’s pray they do not get copyright because otherwise I will destroy them jk but I will be upset

Originally appeared on January 31, 2001, when the jackpot was at $1,860,000 when he was ruled out after answering his $16,000 question wrong, leaving him with $1,000. However, it was determined that there was an error in the question, so he was invited back and began with a new $16,000 question. Toutant went on to win the jackpot as it was at the time of his first appearance. - Kevin Smith - First top prize winner on the syndicated version, winning the top prize on February 18, 2003. - Nancy Christy - Won on May 8, 2003. Christy is the only female top prize winner. - David Chang - Won on November 29, 2020. Became the first top prize winner on the primetime revival and the first celebrity to win the top prize, winning $1,000,000 for his charity, Southern Smoke Foundation, with the help of Mina Kimes via the phone-a-friend lifeline on the million-dollar question and Alan Yang as his supporter. - Ike Barinholtz and Alan Barinholtz - Won on August 14, 2024. Ike and Alan Barinholtz became the second overall top prize winners on the prime time revival and the second celebrities overall to win the top prize, winning $1,000,000 for their charity, ASL program at Los Encinos School. This also marks the first time in the history of Millionaire that a team of two contestants win the top prize.

[@sonicxrich0789]

In addition, the following two contestants won at least $1 million, though not by answering fifteen questions correctly: - Robert Essig - Answered twelve of a possible fifteen questions correctly and left with $1,000,000 out of a possible $10,000,000 during Super Millionaire on February 23, 2004. - Sam Murray - Answered eleven of a possible fifteen questions to win $50,000 in his first appearance, which earned him the #8 seed during the "Million Dollar Tournament of Ten" (see below for more information).

Bob House was the first person I saw win the million. But I especially remember watching Kim Hunt win because of that final question. Geography was and still is my strongest subject.

[@nickbodnar5216]

Not only the 1 million dollar winner on Who Whats To Be A Super Millionaire did not get the confetti do to not wining the 10 million but unfortunately a 1 million dollar winner on Who Whats To Be A Millionaire also did not get the confetti do to Covid 19.

[@trevortuominen8233]

Other winners during COVID had confetti. Maybe the machine wasn't working?

[@SimsHacks]

@@trevortuominen8233 maybe they just didn't expect anyone to win the million as it hadn't happened for sooo long 😀

Now we can add another Millionaire(s) to the list: Ike and Alan Barinholtz, who won $1 million on August 14 2024.

[@MRodriguez7467]

It's fucking insane that out of all these winners, Nancy Christy was the 1st & ONLY female contestant in the U.S. to win the million bucks.

[@occono3543]

FWIW there are more female winners worldwide. The first winner on the original UK show was a woman.

[@user-bd2vz2tg8u]

I think US version had the easiest questions.

[@Lewismooney2012]

Definitely there was a millionaire that won a million dollars and 5 days later another millionaire happened

Darn it I made a mistake whenever the celebrity comes up it says $1,00,000 not $1,000,000 Oops

12:38 first celebrity to win the top prize

[@markymark443]

Yea he mentions Norm Macdonald during that segment. Norm had the right answer and would’ve been the first celebrity winner but many people feel Regis talked him out of going with it as his final answer. His answer turned out to be the right one, and I believe he was also the last celebrity contestant with Regis. Funny enough the last contestant with Regis in the 10-year primetime anniversary mini-season in 2009 was Ken Basin, who notoriously became the only contestant to date to miss the million dollar question in the U.S. Seems like Regis would end on a bad note. :(
