After years of hosting the popular game show WHEEL OF FORTUNE, it takes a lot to surprise the show's long-time host Pat Sajak. But on last night's episode, contestant Emil managed to do just that.

Revealing the category 'thing,' during the bonus round, Emil chose to add the letters "H, M, D and O" to the already given letters R, S, T, L, N and E. Yet letter-turner Vanna White revealed only two of those letters on the board - N and E.

"This looks tough to me," said Sajak, "You're a very good puzzle solver, but I don't know. You have 10 seconds. Keep talking. Maybe the right thing will pop out. Good luck." Amazingly, Emil said the first thing which popped into his mind, "New Baby Buggy", which proved to be the correct solution to the puzzle! His reward? $45,000!!

"I'm rather stunned!" said Sajak, who later tweeted, "Tonight's "Wheel of Fortune" features most amazing solve in my 30+ years on the show. No kidding."
