An animator, a fermented drink and a funny insect brought down the super maestro. After 199 broadcasts since November 21, Eric, the Breton star, fell this Friday in the “12 Coups de midi”, the game presented by Jean-Luc Reichmann on TF 1. The father of the family was eliminated at dawn to win the million euros. He still left with a record prize pool for entertainment: 921,316 euros!
"Well done for all your knowledge. You are an example for many French people, greeted the host. You are a beautiful person. You have always been as fair as possible. You stayed straight […]. Continue to defend the image of the family and your values ”.
Originally from Finistère and father of two daughters, the super champion largely dethroned, both in number of participations and in gains, the former noon master Christian Quesada, who had pocketed 809,392 euros.
Nothing is ever acquired
But, after having shone with his general culture, this designer draftsman who works in a design office in Lorient (Morbihan) failed in front of a young recruit: Colas, 28 years old.

By choosing the mop - an insect that eats away at the roots of plants - Colas folded the match.

"Nothing is ever taken for granted," commented Eric (46). I wish Colas to go very far. It has the potential. ” Visibly moved but very calm, the quadra, unbeatable in history, geography, cinema, music and literature, did not make tons at the time of his farewell. "I had a great time with you," he said, modest. It will remain a unique moment in my life. "
Let the fans be reassured: Eric will return to the next masters this summer, said Jean-Luc Reichmann. In the meantime, the Breton, who had resumed the recordings of the front page game on May 11 after two months of interruption due to confinement, has planned to invest. With his earnings, he promised his family to build a new, more spacious house…
