The contestant, Danielle Perez, was shown two items and one price. If she selected the correct item to the price, she would win both. The two big prizes on this episode, an expensive treadmill and a three-person home sauna.
Danielle correctly matched the sauna to the $3,695 price tag and won both prizes. Almost instantly, the Internet took note of the win because the winner in this game is wheelchair-bound.
