Dan Blonsky's was the easiest. Hands down. On a Russian WWTBAM we probably got the easiest 15th question ever 1 Million Rubles=15 672 U.S. dollars (today) And here it is! One of directions of what religious philosophy is the doctrine " a zen A:Taoism B: Hinduism C: Judaism D: Buddhism I think it's not fair to give too much money for this question |

When I first saw Dan Blonsky's million dollar question in a repeat on GSN, just like pretty much everyone I knew the answer right away.

Let me tell you that Dan Blonsky's MDQ is really easy, but I've always thought that the question about the Scientific unit named after an Italian Nobleman in UK Millionaire was a bit easier than the former.
As for the most difficult one, I've always thought (and still do) that Ken Basin's Million Dollar Question takes the cake:
For ordering his favorite beverages on demand, LBJ had four buttons installed in the Oval Office labeled "coffee," "tea," "Coke" and what?
A: Fresca
B: V8
C: Yoohoo
D: A&W

I'll agree to that one being quite easy. Which scientific unit is named after an Italian nobleman? A: Pascal B: Ohm C: Volt D: Hertz Another way of asking it: Which of these words is the only one that sounds remotely Italian? |

A: Fresca B: V8 C: Yoohoo D: A&W That one was easy. I think this one is very hard: Who delivered the less famous two-hour speech that preceded Abraham Lincoln's two-minute Gettysburg Address? A: Wendel Phillips B: Daniel Webster C: Robert G. Ingersoll D: Edward Everett and this one is very easy: Which insect shorted out an early supercomputer and inspired the term "computer bug"? A: Moth B: Roach C: Fly D: Japanese beetle |

That was the seventh MDQ, and I thought that one was the hardest one up to that point. What makes it easy, other than you happened to know it? |

Oh. It's good to know it. You thought that one was easy? That was the seventh MDQ, and I thought that one was the hardest one up to that point. What makes it easy, other than you happened to know it? Yes. I've seen a lot of sites about coding teaching the history of the "computer bug". If every school in the US is doing the hour of code, now a lot of children know that answer. |

Definitely true, but this is a case where moth is still "the best answer". Although the claim to it being the original "computer bug" is dubious, the fact remains that there was not a roach, fly, or Japanese beetle in there.

I thought both of the $1 million questions Cedric asked in 2013 were bat**** hard. Sure, "The Drinker's Dictionary" and Nostradamus' 1555 treatise both saw some popularity spikes in the Google search results since their episodes aired, but they had to have expected only 2 people to have ever read them.
A: Training parrots to talk
B: Cheating at card games
C: Digging graves
D: Making jams and jellies
Speculation of the black plague led Josina to pick C, but I think this is one of those questions where either you know the answer, or you don't know the answer, meaning you'd have to have read this treatise in order to have a clue.
A: Nimptopsical
B: Buzzey
C: Pifflicated
D: Staggerish
Similarly, since no one I know ever uses these words, the only ways you'd know the answer are 1. to have read "The Drinker's Dictionary", and 2. to know that the word "pifflicated" was coined much more recently.

What is the first letter in the English Alphabet? A: C B: D C: A D: B There, I said it. Easiest or hardest? =P Here's an example of a stupid jackpot question, asked in Nigeria in March 2016: Which team won the Major League Baseball World Series in 2003? A: St. Louis Cardinals B: New York Yankees C: Florida Marlins D: Texas Rangers Of course they put the Yankees in there as a possible answer just to throw off 83% of the audience?! I've heard of 81% of a British audience saying "state opening" over "budget speech" but I swear this was intentional, why would you ask that question in 2016? Why not in 2004 when the Nigerian version premiered, when some Nigerians may have kept track of it? Apparently none of the audience voted for the correct answer, and I think this has to do with Frank Edoho advising the audience not to vote if they didn't know the answer, which may have skewed the results as follows:  Does anything like this happen elsewhere in the world? I'm curious. |
