Having a knack for correctly answering the trickiest of trivia questions is great for impressing your family and friends, but it rarely comes with financial rewards. Unless that is, you’re a contestant on TV’s popular Who Wants to Be a Millionaire. Winning the ultimate prize of one million dollars only comes by answering an astoundingly difficult question. This level is so challenging that only 13 out of hundreds of contestants have won the million-dollar prize in the US, and just six have won in the UK. Think you might have the trivia chops to tackle the hardest questions of all? Let’s see how many of the following million-dollar questions featured on WWTBAM you can handle!
