Before you go ahead and watch this video, take a second to think of the most painful game show moment you’ve ever witnessed and slide it into second place right now, because what you’re about to see is next level stuff.
After a family member picked up 182 points in the first leg of the Fast Money round, all that stood between this lady and $20,000 was 18 points. Unfortunately, that was 18 points too many.
While the pressure clearly got to her and the couple answers she mustered weren’t very good, the most painful part of the video is seeing the entire family ride a roller coaster of emotions. You can pretty much see every ounce of joy escaping their bodies just moments after they celebrated having twenty grand all but in the bag.
I have a feeling this won’t be the topic of Thanksgiving Dinner this year.
