Should I laugh (video)

I ask should I laugh because the video below is freaking hilarious, but then I realize that this guy and many others like him are the future of our world.

A friend of mine watches Wheel of Fortune religiously. He called me a few hours ago telling me about this guy that had a chance for a million dollars but lost it over a mispronunciation. When he told me this, my immediate reaction was a little bit of anger toward the game show. That was until I actually watched the video. This guy deserved to lose it all!

For those that cant watch the vid, here's the run down
First he gets a chance for a 1 million dollar prize and has it in the bag because all the letters of the puzzle are already revealed. All he has to do is repeat the sentence. The puzzle was "MYTHOLOGICAL HERO ACHILLES" All he had to do was say that. But he horribly mispronounced "Achilles". The next contestant ended up getting the puzzle right.

BUT WAIT.... the embarrassment didn't stop there. The next puzzle he was about to win a new car. The clue was "PERSON". and here's what he had left to solve the puzzle. "THE WORLD'S FASTEST _A_" Well we all know what the puzzle says. Well he said "C" for his guess at the next letter and of course he didn't get it.

Wow first a chance at a million bucks then a car and losses them both.

BUT WAIT..... There's more!!!
The answer to the final Puzzle was "ON THE SPOT DECISION" and he said "ON THE SPOT DICE SPIN" What!!!! What on Gods green earth is an 'on the spot dice spin'? HAHAHA!!!

To top it all off hes wearing a sweater with his current college on it.
If he has any friends left after this, they will NEVER let him live this down and not to mention it is horrible advertising for his school.

Wow Indiana, what are you teaching these kids?

And whats crazy is if you watch what his score is through the rounds, he has the highest score by FAR!! How in the world does he blow the other contestants away during the game but then fails so epically when it comes time to finally solve the puzzle?

Crazy stuff.....he must be really good at guessing. Quick give this guys a jar full of jelly beans!!

I understand you can get jitters , being on a game show and all ,but the words are right there in front of the guy. I winced too when I he tried to solve each of the puzzles.


pure.... duuuuuuuuuuuuhhhhhhhhh!!

I actually watched that episode with my mom. We were both completely dumbstruck and we quickly dissolved into peals of uncontrollable laughter.
Really, it's sad but omg... seriously?
