Has Anyone Ever Noticed How Contestants Struggle With Nearly Complete Puzzles on Wheel of Fortune?

Hello everyone.

I have been watching Wheel of Fortune for years and one thing that always blows my mind is how contestants sometimes blank out when the puzzle is almost fully revealed.

You would think that seeing 90% of the letters would make solving it a breeze, but the pressure of the moment seems to freeze people completely. Has anyone else noticed this pattern?

Do you think the spinning wheel itself adds psychological pressure that affects decision making?

I would love to hear from fans about their most memorable moments of contestants either triumphing or fumbling at the very last second!
