Contestant Emily Seaman Hoy mentioned her tradition of forming a human pyramid in front of famous landmarks, and the 'Jeopardy!' stage was next on her list.

During Monday’s episode of Jeopardy!, a contestant named Emily Seaman Hoy from Houston had an unusual request for the show's legendary host, Ken Jennings.

In a heartwarming moment captured on video, Hoy revealed her penchant for forming human pyramids with her husband and brother at famous landmarks during her travels, including the Great Pyramid in Egypt.


Watch below:

With a hint of excitement in her voice, Hoy shared her dream with Jennings, saying:

"Our next big goal is to get a pyramid on the Jeopardy! stage with the host of Jeopardy!“

Jennings, known for his quick wit and intellect, responded in a somewhat cryptic manner:

"We have never done a human pyramid here, and I don't think I've ever been in one, so we'll have to talk after the show."

At first glance, it may have appeared to be a polite deflection, but Ken Jennings was not one to shy away from a challenge.

True to his word, the show later shared snapshots of Emily Seaman Hoy and her fellow contestants forming a human pyramid right on the Jeopardy! set.

In a delightful twist, Ken Jennings himself enthusiastically joined in, bringing the contestant's dream to fruition.

The internet is smitten with Ken Jennings’s willingness to make the contestant’s dream come true.










In the end, while Emily Seaman Hoy may not have won the game, she certainly enjoyed an unforgettable and heartwarming moment on the iconic Jeopardy! stage.

The episode was ultimately won by Dane Reighard, a writer and editor from Los Angeles.

'Based On A True Story' Movies That Aren't True At All

The entertainment industry has long been criticized for their creative license when it comes to retelling history or anything "based on a true story."

Going back to the silent film era and D.W. Griffith's ridiculously inaccurate White supremacist propaganda Birth Of A Nation to Mel Gibson's Braveheart to Disney's Pocahontas, some films go way beyond creative license and careen into total malarkey.

Musk's AI Chatbot Throws Republicans Under The Bus After Being Asked About Economy

Grok, billionaire Elon Musk's very own chatbot, threw Republicans under the bus after software engineer Alex Coke asked it if Democrats or Republicans have been better for the economy in the past 30 years, only for it to answer that yes, in fact, Democrats are the winners when it comes to economic policy.

CNN Airs Brutal Reminder Of Trump's Previous Economic Predictions—And They Did Not Age Well

CNN came with the receipts, airing a supercut of clips from 2020 and 2024 of President Donald Trump making hilariously wrong economic predictions—a damning reel of evidence as financial markets decline and investor concerns grow over Trump’s trade policies.

In fact, Trump’s escalating trade war pushed the S&P 500 more than 10% below its record high set just last month. A drop of this size is significant enough that professional investors call it a “correction,” and the S&P 500’s 1.4% decline on Thursday marked its first since 2023.
