abstract | - Game Show hosted by wrestler Chris Jericho on ABC, whose main draw is that the contestant tries to save a series of prizes from going over the edge of a rather tall building on a Conveyor Belt O' Doom by fulfilling a contract of questions in a specific category. While the prizes are a nice bonus, the box of money at the end of the line must survive in order to advance to the next level, and the belt speeds up every time a question is passed. The contestant also gets two uses of a "Panic Button", which stops the round, resets the belt, forfeits the prizes on the belt, and allows them to pick a new category, but also forces them to put a personal possession or a supporter on the belt, the latter allowing the two to confer on answers. Survival through all seven rounds awards $1,000,000. Not to be confused with the World War II film of the same name.
