The Greatest Loser of All Time - Michael Larson

Michael Larson is a very smart man. He's arrested three times between 1969 and 1982 by the Lebanon and Dayton police departments for receiving and concealing stolen property. In the early 80s, he begins to become convinced that the next moment of realization is going to come by watching television. The show Press Your Luck has virtually no limit to how much money a player can win. Most of the squares have cash prizes, trips or free spins. But at any time, four of them have a whammy. You hit a whammy and everything you've earned goes away.
