A CONTESTANT who appeared on The 1% Club has recalled feeling 'overwhelmed' by what happened after winning the show and walking away with a huge cash prize of £99k. Daniel O'Halloran successfully answered the question only one percent of the nation supposedly know the answer to. The 1% Club outings usually begin with 100 contestants, but gradually, the players are eliminated after incorrectly answering a series of questions that test their logical reasoning and mathematical skills.
In the final stage of the ITV quiz show, hosted by comedian Lee Mack , only one challenging question separates the winner from the £100K cash prize. Last year, Daniel became the lucky winner of an eye-watering £99k after his mum- who is a big fan of the show- signed him up without his knowledge. Daniel said about his experience: "I was quite confident in getting to the latter stages of the show, but I never in my wildest dreams imagined taking home that much money .
” “I thought if I got to £10,000 with no money to fall back on, I'd take the £10,000 and wouldn't gamble," he told the Liverpool Echo. The 24-year-old from Rock Ferry on the Wirral was asked to answer the question: "If you list all the numbers from 1 to 100 in order, 100 would be the 100th number, but what would be the 100th digit?" Can you work it out? The answer will be given at the end of this article. When asked how he reacted to winning the show, Daniel expressed: "I lost control of my body.
I was running around celebrating.
