Ben Affleck and his partner won a million dollars in "Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?"
Can you answer these questions?
American actor Ben Affleck and avid quiz participant Jamie Ding won a million dollars on the show "Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?", writes the Telegram channel "Sorok Tri".
The participants of the latest episode of "Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?" on ABC were actor Ben Affleck and a multiple winner of another TV quiz – Jeopardy! (its analogue in the CIS is "Svoja Igra") – Jamie Ding.
On their way to a million, they, in particular, answered the following question:
What achievement was made just two months after The New York Times wrote that it would not happen for another few million years?
Here are the answer options:
- A. First airplane flight
- B. Splitting the atom
- C. Cloning a mammal
- D. Polio vaccine
- Correct answer: A.
The final question was even more difficult and concerned the annual Thanksgiving tradition, according to which the President of the United States grants a pardon to two turkeys, after which they are never eaten.
According to the same tradition, the pardoned turkeys are given humorous paired names. For the million-dollar question, Ben Affleck and Jamie Ding had to guess which turkeys' names had never received a presidential pardon.
After brief hesitation and using the "phone a friend" lifeline, the participants chose the option "Spaghetti and Meatball" and turned out to be correct.
After their victory, they announced that they would donate the prize money to a fund established by Ben Affleck, which helps residents of the eastern part of the Democratic Republic of Congo.

Слов не хватает матерных. У нас каждый год на работе ноют собирают деньги на неимущим детям в американских школах, рюкзаки, фломастеры итп. А этот конго помагает.
