Show do Milhão participant loses prize money after incorrect student advice

A participant named André lost a significant portion of potential winnings on the Brazilian game show Show do Milhão after following incorrect advice from the 'University Students' help feature.

During a question valued at R$ 100,000, André was asked to identify the equivalent of one milliliter. The university students consulted during the segment incorrectly pointed to '1 milímetro cúbico' as the answer. The correct response was '1 centímetro cúbico'.

By trusting the students' incorrect guidance, André was unable to secure the R$ 80,000 tier or advance to the R$ 100,000 level, ultimately leaving the program with a final prize of R$ 40,000.
