He walked away with a nice chunk of change on "Who Wants To Be A Millionaire?" last week. Nice work, Hans. I know how hard it can be to excel on that show.

Thanks, Brian! I'm ashamed to say that the question I went out on probably would have a decent get rate among the LLamas (and has, indeed, surfaced at O'Brien's according to BaileyA), but nonetheless, quite the hoot of a game.

So a word of advice if anyone else ever goes on Millionaire, know your world leader soft drink preferences!

(If anyone wants to watch me squirm my way through a few questions, my episode is on YouTube if you search "Hans von Walter Millionaire")

By the way, most of your big break was preempted in New York by a breaking news bulletin about Sandy.

Congrats, Hans! Very proud of you, and you were super cute in your big return to TV.

One more thing, Hans. Why did you never mention before that your dad is the Most Interesting Man In The World?

I don't always let everyone know...

But when you do...

Great job Hans! Also thanks to PahkJ for posting the video; I usually DVR Millionaire, but was without power and cable that day. I would have been torn between two of the answers on that drink question. I was on the show two seasons ago and had the same happy result. I'm sure many LLamas know what tv show debuted the same day that Sputnik launched, but I wasn't sure. Standing there with a risk of losing almost as much as I would gain, I walked with the sure thing. It was a great experience, enhanced quite a bit by being in touch with almost everyone I know and funny stories about how people happened to see me on tv. I hope you're having as much fun with it.
