All I can think about is the producers/directors watching from their mixing room live and seeing her land on the W and everyone turning to each other in shock like "Oh sh*t..."
This show has a gigantic budget. Obviously no business likes losing money, but the higher ups were probably happy that someone hit the million. It probably gave them great ratings and a lot of traffic towards the show after people heard about someone winning a million.
I think they're very secretive about where they put it. I remember hearing that only one person knows where it is. But that was a long time ago so it could have changed.
It was 10 years ago today that Michelle made Wheel of Fortune history by becoming the 1st Million Dollar Winner ever. To this day, only 3 have done it but she is the originator. Congrats Michelle on this celebration. 😄
I auditioned for WOF. They give you a paper with twenty partly spelled words, and five minutes to guess them. As soon as they said, 'Go!' my mind went completely blank. Only two people out of 100 got all the words.
Tony Bidwell I was watching with a couple of my friends that night and not only during Charlie's voice I saw the card show the wedge and I just yelled SHE GOT IT SHE GOT THE MILLION!!!! and everyone of the guys in the room once they saw the 1,000,000 flash across the screen they went WILD!!! So happy for her it was a long time coming
Omg! I just adore this girl! 😊. What a wonderful husband-he looks like he could just cry-watching her excitement and happiness! God bless this sweet couple!
I’m still trying to figure out why they put her husband picture on the thumbnail like he was the first million dollar winner. I wish people would just give credit where credit is due.
What’s crazy is I’m pretty sure Pat knows where it is because he usually shows the location when they don’t get the million, so that’s tremendous restraint on his part to not give any indication
I was so proud of Michelle, she will always be remembered and will go down in history as the first million dollar winner. She’s an intelligent lady and what a blessed exciting moment for her on Wheel of Fortune.
Thanks for showing this. I watched Wheel of Fortune . This is the first time I saw this show who won 1 Million Dollars. Congratulations to the winner. I really enjoyed watching wheel of fortune. It’s very educational. I learned a lot. Thanks.❤️🙏🌹
This was Canada week because they were showing it for the first time on CBC. The Canadian Broadcasting Corporation. One guy commented said that "Guess the CBC picked a good week to start airing Wheel".
2:35 when she's screaming "BABE WE'RE MILLIONAIRES" i'm like, nah. you'll have much less than a million when you walk out. jesus christ lady lmfao more like, close to 1 millionaires lol
Come back to this video when I just need to be uplifted. How I hope Michelle and Donald are still together with kids, more dogs and financial security! They say money can't buy happiness, but it can make happy people happier...and dog lovers are usually happy people!
seeing how happy she got made me feel like I won something lol. You can't help but smile at that.
TripThreez I agree!!!!!! This is sooo awesome
That's why I watch this once every couple weeks

Yup!
I agreed

A blip in their budget. They spend that on Pat's hair.
Also most of the crew root for the people to win. Its not like the money comes out of their pocket.

That show takes in about 40 million a week if not more.

You can just see the dust falling out with the confetti, no doubt it's been up there for decades.

@Bama Fan do you even know how to use whoosh correctly lol

It's really touching that Michelle ran to Vanna for a hug.
I know right?
Her joy was contagious I loved how she screamed out to Vanna and gave her a big hug
I agree 👍
Also, Her Scream When She Saw She Got The Million Dollars Was Loud As Heck!
@SexyBennettYup
Had to rewind , yes she shouted “van-NA”
It was 10 years ago today that Michelle made Wheel of Fortune history by becoming the 1st Million Dollar Winner ever. To this day, only 3 have done it but she is the originator. Congrats Michelle on this celebration. 😄
I know it’s only money, but the pure joy this lady has is priceless. Let’s hope the money served them well.
ONLY money? This is life changing.
Money can solve a lot of things
@2:06 that’s so cute when she screams “VANNA”! And goes to hug her 😁
I love how she ran over to hug Vanna.
I’ve been watching the show since I was a kid and always guess the puzzles. I really need to go on this show before I get too old.
good luck and hopefully i see you on my tv screen one day.

This was the only time Charlie O'Donnell got to say they won $1,000,000 R.I.P. Charlie O'Donnell, we miss you.
And it happened on...
*imitates Charlie O'Donnell*
WHEEEEEEEEEELLLLLLLL Of Fortune!
R.I.P Charlie O'Donnell!
This is Jeopardy.
Huh? Just watched 3 videos where he said it
They?
"You're going to go shopping for that dog."
Lol. Pat Sajak is the best host out there
True. He really had to compose himself knowing she had won from the moment she landed on it
After taxes, all she could afford was a bag of dog food 🤣😂
I used to have to sit through 30-40 years of game shows MAYBE to see a BIG winner; Now a 3 second TH-cam search and they’re all at my fingertips.
When Charlie O'Donnell said "It's our biggest payday yet!", I knew she had it! Classic!

This is just so wholesome and happy. You can't help but smile and laugh alongside them, sharing the joy.
Even though this was eight years ago it still puts a smile on my face
0:04 dude at the bottom right looks at the camera and moves his eyebrows.
Lol wtf
That is hilarious!!!
What a chad
Greatest moment in the show's history.
her energy is contagious
Omg! I just adore this girl! 😊. What a wonderful husband-he looks like he could just cry-watching her excitement and happiness! God bless this sweet couple!
I still remember this back in 2008!
Thegamerontop I believe it was the second episode of season 26
the government also won too
I’ve watched this several times because I really enjoy watching Michelle’s reaction.Can’t help but feel great for her.😊
I don't watch the show often but I happened to watch this one. I was screaming and jumping up and down for her! Such a sweet lady!
What an infectious joy.
Beautiful moment.
You kick butt Sajak and White

Pats like “I make that per episode… congratulations.”
Lmfaoooo
1:48 the reaction of her is just insane
A hug from Vanna is worth more than $1M !!

She tried to sell herself to Al Bundy for half a mil 😮
GOOD FOR HER. I LOVE HER REACTION/EXPRESSION. MORE THAN ONE DOG!
I remember when I saw this moment live on TV back in 2008. It was a great moment to witness.
7 years ago and still a very awesome moment!
This episode will be 10 years old in about a week; I remember watching it when it aired and I was so excited for her. :)
AND just like that! Instantly set for life. congratulations 🎊
I’m still trying to figure out why they put her husband picture on the thumbnail like he was the first million dollar winner. I wish people would just give credit where credit is due.

@Lisa Kerekes Stupid to you, funny to many.

Lol she'll probably dumb his ass now
"your going to go shopping for that dog!"
lol love that line!
Couldn't happen to a better person 👍
What’s crazy is I’m pretty sure Pat knows where it is because he usually shows the location when they don’t get the million, so that’s tremendous restraint on his part to not give any indication
2:00 You can see the disbelief in Pat's face as he looks at the envelope
That was tremendous & at the same time a 1 million yard touchdown after Wheel Of Fortune's 1 million dollar winner.
Gosh this Reaction is Priceless😂
So adorable! I am so happy for her.
I could watch these over and over.
The moment of realization of what had just occurred was when he said "How did this even happen!".
1:46--"You better go shopping for that dog!"

Waldemar Medina hahahahaha glad I wasn’t the only one who thought it.
I remember seeing this!!! I was so happy for her lush dreaming of a million dollars!
This is awesome!!!! Seeing how happy she was, it kinda felt like i won too.

I watch again and again to feel the joy.
1:49 Pat has a priceless look on his face, as if he didn't want this to happen.
EqualsPeach
hell no he didn't want it to happen. that crusty old robot is constantly making snide, underlying remarks.
EqualsPeach
He doesn’t want people to win big, probably messes with his paycheck
1:51 Michelle!! It's biggest it's day with? One million dollars!!
2:17 How could this happen!!
This bring tears to my eyes every time I watch it.
MICHELLE, IT’S OUR BIGGEST PAYDAY YET!
ONE...MILLION...DOLLARS!!!
R.I.P. Charlie O'Donnell.
I would've either collapsed onto the floor in tears or run around the set screaming happily if I had won.
BWF
BeastWarsFan I'd be in tears fist-pumping the air saying "YES!"
It looks to me like she DID run happily. :D.
I'd poop my pants. But, I do that all the time...
By far THEE best reaction! Love it!
I saw that first Million dollar winner last time i was to excited to win that much money.
I love how she hugged the lady who hits the letters
I remember when this first aired, the CBS affiliate airing it in my area spoiled this just as the show began!
Marathon Watching 10/23/2020 Congratulations 🍾🎊 .... Hope you are doing well... all the feels of this awesome win!
Congratulations 🎈
Love her scream! That is me when I win something!
She's won $1,000,000! Congratulations 👏🎉!
Brings me to tears. ❤

She is so pretty! I love when people win!
Was this the only $1,000,000 episode to get re-aired on the Saturday after it originally did, or is that done for all of them?
Every time I watch this video I cry a little
Person: Wins 1 millions dollars
Pat: Oh no, we blew the budget for a year all in one episode
.... What?
I screamed like 1:48 when I got an honors class my freshman year... in front of everybody at band camp.
Canada 🇨🇦
I'm excited for her!
Congratulations Michelle!👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑.
