The Mountain Climber Game! My favorite! They don’t do that one enough to suit me.

IIRC, that’s another one that people hardly ever win. The mountaineer goes over the top – “AAAAAUUGH! ::crash::” – a lot more often than not. And I distinctly remember one female contestant who said, “Oh, my little girl loves this game! She likes to see the guy go over the top!” And then she **won** , and the guy didn’t crash, so afterwards, she said, “Can you make him crash anyway, so my daughter can see it?” and they did!
