A real heart attack! when it seems that Orestes and Rafael they cannot surprise, they manage to go even further. There are quite a few occasions in which they are achieving 24 hits in ‘the donut‘ in recent weeks, always taking the excitement to the maximum. However, this time the man from Burgos has outdone himself: he only needs one answer to win the jackpot of 1,840,000 euros.
His feat has an added merit, which makes it historic: he has signed a spectacular start of 22 consecutive hits! He has surpassed his own personal record, he has gone beyond Jaime’s 21 and he has stayed just one behind José Manuel Lúcia’s 23, no less than in 2009. Of course, it is the best mark in this stage of ‘Pasapalabra’ .
The public has stood up to give him a standing ovation as has rarely been seen on this set. Even Roberto Leal seemed to have run out of words. “He has gone white,” commented one of the guests. The contestant himself seemed not to finish assimilating what he just did.
Rafa, a spectator at his side, was watching the extreme challenge that his rival was forcing him to. For this reason, unlike other occasions, he knew that he had to take risks without waiting for a second round. With the ‘N’, he made a mistake that almost ruled out his victory in the afternoon.
Orestes confirmed it in his next move, when he had two hits… and he stood at 24! You have 30 seconds left to think carefully about the question you are missing. You are only one answer away from the million dollar jackpot. With the ‘X’: ‘In classical antiquity, a compilation of opinions or opinions of philosophers’. Everyone holds in breath. Will he take the pot! Hit play!
