  • Look at how confused James is after the question asked at 11:33 , even shaking his head after the answer is revealed. The question prompt indicates the element has the name of a Greek god in it. The answer being Plutonium. The problem is that Pluto is a Roman god, Hades being his Greek counterpart. There was an error in the question and it looks like James caught that error as well, this dude is on another level.

    • Speed reading + High recall + He's likely trained the common categories. Then applying an optimal maths strategy to his play and bet size. Eg combing through the 1,000's first to try and build up a pot to bet for a double. The 60,013 bet placed him at the maximum bet size without risking his place and therefore opportunities for more money in subsequent games. Trained skill and great recall meets optimal play. The problemwith most players is they go on thinking a decent memory and some trivia skill is enough. You want to dominate this show, you'll need to practice for weeks on the broad topics the show typically covers.

    • That's not quite true, but a commonly held mistake. Hades was indeed the older Greek name for the god of the underworld, but they (the Greeks) later began referring to him as Ploutōn (Πλούτων) BEFORE the Romans began referring to him as Pluto. So attributing Plutonium to the Greek god, Ploutōn, is in fact accurate.

    • I do believe they changed the rules after James' shoutouts. Now that response would be ruled incorrect. Hasn't stopped James from his shoutouts and witty banter though as we saw during the Masters tournament.

    • this makes James one of two notable champions to actually end up having a rule chanted. The other champion being arthur chu, whose strategy of getting a co champion led to tiebreakers being implemented instead.

    • @@ryansmith1044well when Victoria Groce returned to Jeopardy for the invitational tournament, she wrote “Hi Nora” after the question mark of her final responses. I think you’re still allowed to do it but you have to do it the right way where it’s not part of your answer whether that’s after the question mark or in parentheses or both.

  • The one where they said plutonium was named after one of the Greek gods was wrong. James didn’t get it right because it is named after a Roman god not a Greek god. Pluto is a Roman god. His Greek counterpart is Hades. He was confused on the wording because it was wrong

    • J! seems to be way too lenient in the Greek or Roman god area. It just happened this last week when Eros and Cupid were considered the same.

    • @@cherylcampbell9369 in that clue, the only info given to specify Greek or Roman was the naming of Psyche, which can be either Greek or Roman. They ruled the contestant incorrect for giving one of the answers but then later gave credit since it could have been either Eros or Cupid. He should protest and be brought back since the next clue chosen (directly under the psyche clue) was a daily double that he didn’t get to play. He ended the round in a close 2nd and lost on final jeopardy.

    • yep. Pluto is Roman, Hades is the Greek near- equivalent.

      @cherylcampbell9369@cherylcampbell936911 ай бұрын

    • Yes. But the Greeks later began referring to Hades as Ploutōn (Πλούτων), before the Romans were using Pluto. So if they meant that Plutonium was named after the Greek god Ploutōn, they'd be correct (this is unclear, I think).

  • Im from the uk where hes one of the chasers such a smart bloke , i gave up going on game shows after 25 years of being on shows such as wheel of fortune, weakest link , catchphrase , price is right , in 2003 i went on a show called Saturday night takeaway where you have a chance to win all the ads such as holidays , cars, cash , the killer question decides if you walk away with everything youre called out of the audience to answer as many questions as possible in 60 seconds , i answered 5 but i went for the killer question because normally on previous shows it wouldn't be too difficuilt like one week it was who is the tallest penelope cruz or Tom cruz . Its a live show with millions watching so its a bit nerve racking but i coped , the killer Question for me was a killer , they asked me where Nicole Kidman was born , was she born in Australia or Hawaii. The question threw me i had a mental block ? Everything i had ever read in newspaper or magazine articles always used the term ozzy Nikole and to make it more confusing one of the holidays on the board was to hawaai so i looked to the Gods and said outloud please God let me be right , i answered Australia and Boom the lights went up and the awful hosts smiled and said sorry its the wrong answer , i was left alone in the wings not even offerred any consolling not even a room for the night in london , i crashed my car that night and i gave up gameshows .
