Ralf Schnoor, from Hanover, appeared as a contestant on Series 11 of Wer wird Millionär?, the German version of Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?, on November 22–26, 2010. He won €1,000,000, becoming the ninth millionaire on the German version, and the third in the world to not need a lifeline to win the million, after John Carpenter in the United States and Enrique Chicote in Spain.

| ⬥ C: Gelber Dreier (Three kreuzer yellow) | ⬥ D: Blauer Vierer (Four kreuzer blue) |
| Ralf phoned a friend, but he did not need his help, instead telling him he would win the million euros. His behaviour was very similar to John Carpenter's, the first ever top prize winner on any version of Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?, and that of Enrique Chicote on 50x15 in 2000..
