Things get starts 7:00 minutes in.

Due to the American version's new format, once players get to the last four questions, if they have their "jump" lifelines remaining, they can skip questions. Josina had both of her "jump" lifelines, and could skip the $250'000 and $500'000 question, which meant if she walked away, she'd get only $100'000 in comparison to the $1 million she would play for.

Basically, she would either win $25k (For getting it wrong), $100k (for leaving) or $1 million (for getting it right).

Due to the different structure of the new format and the different style of questions, this is the first time in 4 years and the first time in this new format anybody has seen the million dollar question. It was:

In addition to his career as an astrologer and "prophet", Nostradamus published a 1555 treatise that included a section on what?

A : Training parrots to talk
B : Cheating at card games
C : Digging graves
D : Making jams and jellies

Did she win the mil? Or will she join Ken Basin as only the second person ever to lose at the last question?

Spoiler:

I knew the answer to this question from QI, they talk about Nostradamus' cherry jam recipe. If I were to guess though I would've guessed D as it seems the least likely one they'd have made up. I think she was right to gamble considering how she would only lose 75k for a potential win of 900k, but still, gutted :L

The US version hasn't had a winner in years, they literately had a power of ten tournament 4 years back to change that.

But wow that is a million dollar question. (I do like the US format they're using right now, before the 100,000 grand question they randomize the 100-25,000 questions. You do not know the dollar amounts in the first part, if you get the question right you get what's behind it and it's added to a bank, if you use the jump the amount is still revealed you just don't get it added to the bank.)
