See the look on that guy's face above? That's the look of a guy who just lost out on a shedload of cash. 

College student Julian Batts will be wishing that he spent a little more time with his Classical Studies after a mispronunciation of 'Achilles', the central character in Homer's The Iliad, cost him a cool $1 million on US gameshow Wheel of Fortune.

Batts had managed to reveal all of the letters on the board and literally just had to read the words "Mythological hero Achilles" to win the cash, but somehow managed to botch it.

He also managed to talk himself out of a brand new car AND a free holiday to Jamaica, in what will likely go down as one of the least successful game show appearances since the girl who thought that owls can spit ink at their predators on Who Wants To Be A Millionaire.
