"Who wants to be a millionaire?" Candidate comes to the RTL council chair because of the right bread question
On Monday evening (March 14, 2022), Günther Jauch asked a question about which of the participants was allowed to sit across from him on the council chair.
“Enjoy typical flatbread from Greece, India, Italy and Mexico!” is the selection question.
Artur Exler puts the right answers in the right order the fastest - in just 3.52 seconds.
Sitting down on the chair, Jauch noticed the happy candidate, who responded with a gesture towards himself, laughing: "I'm glad it was a question of bread, because I know my way around, yes." "Do you like to eat bread?" , the moderator asks directly.
The answer is of course "Yes!"
