In the risk variant, Müller confidently steered himself up to the €64,000 question. Then his courage failed him: The search was for the meaning of the term “Anstellgut”.
Is it used to a) make sourdough b) light a fireplace c) do strength training or d) create a raised bed. The candidate tended towards solution b), but then secured the 32,000 euros. Good thing, because the sourdough would have been right.
Nevertheless, there was still time for a small verbal exchange of blows, in which the radio presenter mentioned that he had played football against Günther Jauch a long time ago. With his movements, he reminded him a bit of the cartoon character Goofy.
Günther Jauch countered quickly: “If I had swapped jerseys with them, I would remember it.” Müller laughing: “Touché!” He is fighting for three million euros in the final on Friday (January 5, 8:15 p.m. on RTL).
There was also a lot to laugh about with candidate Heiko Borscheid from Gaggenau. “You are a sad existence”, Jauch announced. Curious: the 50-year-old hadn’t even applied himself, an unknown person had secretly registered him.
“To this day I don’t know who signed me up,” admitted the spokesman for a women’s soccer team and joked, “I think he’ll get in touch if he wins more than 100,000 euros.”
However, the man with the distinctive ponytail and tattoos on his neck and back of his hands did surprisingly well. Only when the 64,000 euro question came up was he at his wits end.
