Chuck Durnberger

Chuck Durnberger, a product manager for a network computing company from Fremont, California, was a contestant on Season 2 of the U.S. version of the show on 2000. He walked away with $32,000 after incorrectly answering his $64,000 question. He joins a very small group of people who used 0 of the three lifelines, with another notable member being John Carpenter. (John used his Phone-A-Friend on the final question, but not for help, but to tell his Dad he was going to win the million, so this doesn't really count as a lifeline used.)

Fastest Finger Question
From the 9 remaining contestants, 6 got it right, but Chuck (with a time of 4.98 seconds) was the fastest to correctly answer A-C-D-B, making it into the Hot Seat.

Trivia

 * It appears as if this episode had only 9 Fastest Finger First contestants, as when Regis Philbin introduces them, only nine appear.
