Succession assured for Erik Van Looy and making love between the mummies: this was ‘The smartest person in the world’

Monday evening’s winner

An impressive one Robin Pront landed at a whopping 635 seconds, the fourth highest score ever. He showed great verve, especially in the video round. He knew all the answers to the fragment of Forrest Gump van Spinvis, was able to add where Van Acker left it and he also managed to give the five correct answers to his own video in just a few seconds.

The loser

Entering the final with 147 seconds, Spiderfish I could already feel the downpour. It became difficult against a Manu Van Acker who had more than 300 seconds. Ultimately, the question ‘What do you know about Facebook?’ it.

The newcomer on Tuesday:

Former Miss Belgium Annelien Coorevits takes a seat in the orange chairs.

Best quotes:

Erik de Jong, alias Spinvis: “There are a lot of Eriks our age. I know five or six Eriks.”

Erik Van Looy: “I don’t know that many. And are they all nice guys?”

Spiderfish: “No not at all.”

***

Robin Pront received a lot of notes at school: “I remember that movie Street fighter came out with Jean-Claude Van Damme, and I had to see it. I then made a deal with my mother and she said: You can see it if you haven’t received a bill for a week… I finally saw it on video.”

***

Van Looy: “Manu, what do you get like when you’re tired?”

Van Acker: “My mom is in the audience! I love to dance, and I get really loud. Louder than usual.”

Cooke: “You don’t dare say it, do you? Are you getting horny?”

Van Acker: “No!”

***

Van Looy: “Spinvis, sorry, it’s on my card. But you once made love in a museum.”

Spiderfish: “Among the mummies!”

Van Looy: “You deliberately chose it that way?”

Spiderfish: “No, it turned out that way.”

Most beautiful moment

Erik Van Looy was briefly replaced to introduce the 3-6-9 question round. He left that in the hands of little Kasper, who managed to do more than his best during the poetic text that he had to read. “You did a fantastic job,” said Van Looy, who was impressed. “Kasper, you have done so well that you have to leave now, because I am afraid for my job.”
