Wheel of Fortune fans know that you win some, you lose some. But not even host Pat Sajak could've predicted one of the most recent losses.

At the start of Wednesday night’s episode, Wheel of Fortune contestant Tenaya was in the lead without having to spin the wheel. After her competitors Lindsey and Brian were bankrupted, she swooped in and solved the four-way crossword puzzle. But it was just the beginning of a rollercoaster game. After Tenaya was bankrupted herself, she slowly started making her comeback and decided to solve the “showbiz” puzzle to win $10,000.

Unfortunately, she didn’t seem to understand the hint hidden in the phrase “_ urassic Park _o_ies” and she made an incorrect guess. “Jurassic Park bodies?” Tenaya said.

“Darn it!” Tenaya said after Wheel of Fortune’s buzzer went off. The answer turned out to be “Jurassic Park Movies” inspired after Steven Spielberg’s popular franchise Jurassic Park. After Lindsey solved it, Pat tried to offer kind words. “Of course, the moment Tenaya loses the turn, she goes ‘Well, of course, it’s movies.’ But that’s alright,” he said.

While the game carried on, Wheel of Fortune fans watching from home immediately took to Twitter to share their thoughts about the moment, which ranged from disbelief to entertained. “JURASSIC PARK BODIES ?? I snorted,” another added. “I know just how Tenaya feels. I do the same thing every time I play Wordle,” a different fan said.

What’s more, the movie’s official Twitter account joined in on the commentary. After Wheel of Fortune tweeted out the answer, Jurassic Park’s account replied back with their own puzzle. “Ho__ on__ y_ur b___s,” it wrote. It didn’t take much time before fans of the film series solved it as “Hold onto your butts,” a reference to character Ray Arnold (Samuel L. Jackson)'s saying in the original 1993 flick.

Hey, it happens to everyone!
