Could you answer all questions on any "Want to be a Millionaire"
I was thinking tonight at someone's house watching a few minutes of "Who Wants to be a Millionaire" what the one-million dollar questions were.

You could ask the million-dollar questions to someone to see if they ever had a chance of winning. By asking the half-million dollar question on the shows they got right you set a quick test if anyone could could answer all the questions in a show that went all the way.

Does anyone have any info on finding the list of million-dollar questions and the questions that lead up to the asking of the question.

Okay, let the sinking begin.

1. I spent a lot of my childhood in England
so I missed a good chunk of trivia, ya know? I do get a lot of the higher-end ones though. :)

2. I like the show, and enjoy trying to answer the questions.
I can tell you, I get most of them right, unless they are movie or music related...then I fail miserably! I can tell you about the one million $ question. My DIL was here, and the question was "What is the letter that precedes every identifying # on an aircraft?" We;;, I knew that one for sure!!! It's N. My DIL waited until they heard the answer and said "How did YOU know that?" My son attended aircraft maintenence school, and I helped him study for his FAA test. I think a lot of the questions on the show are just how much BS you happen to hear in your life. Sometimes you get the bear, and sometimes the bear gets you.

3. I have better luck with the million dollar question than a lot of the
earlier ones that are on pop culture----it's an age thing.

4. I've played the computer game version
many times and only got all of the questions right once. But of course I wasn't on tv sweating it out in front of millions of people. And a million bucks wasn't riding on my answers. :)
