Who's Still Standing is a high-energy game show that aired on NBC from 2011 to 2012. Hosted by Ben Bailey, the show pits one contestant against ten opponents in a series of trivia challenges. The goal is to eliminate all the other players and win a cash prize of up to $1 million.

The show starts with the introduction of the first contestant, who has the chance to answer a question worth $1,000. If they answer correctly, they can keep the money and choose one of their opponents to face off against in the next round. If they answer incorrectly, they are eliminated from the game and must leave with nothing.

As the game progresses, the questions become more difficult and the stakes get higher. Each round consists of a different challenge, such as identifying a song based on a short clip or answering questions about a specific topic. The contestants must use their knowledge and strategy to stay in the game and eliminate their opponents.

One unique aspect of the show is the way in which players are eliminated. Instead of simply answering a question incorrectly or running out of time, players literally fall through the floor and out of the game. The floor drops out from under them, and they are sent tumbling down a chute to the basement below. The other players cheer as they watch their opponents disappear, adding to the excitement and drama of the show.

Throughout the game, players have the opportunity to use three lifelines: Ask the Mob, Plus One, and Jump the Mob. Ask the Mob allows the player to consult with a panel of 100 people who are also watching the show and can provide assistance. Plus One allows the player to bring a friend or family member onto the stage to help them answer questions. Jump the Mob allows the player to skip a question and move on to the next round, but they must also jump over a group of 100 people who are standing in their way.

In addition to the lifelines, the player also has the option to take the money and run at various points throughout the game. If they are not confident in their ability to answer a question or eliminate their opponents, they can choose to keep the money they have already won and exit the game. However, if they choose to continue playing and are eliminated, they will leave with nothing.

As the game progresses, the number of opponents decreases and the cash prize increases. The final round consists of only two players, who face off in a head-to-head challenge for the chance to win up to $1 million. The final question is usually very difficult and requires extensive knowledge or a lucky guess. The first player to answer correctly wins the game and the prize money.

Overall, Who's Still Standing is a fast-paced and exciting game show that tests both knowledge and strategy. With its unique elimination style, fun lifelines, and high-stakes prize money, the show kept viewers on the edge of their seats and rooting for their favorite contestants. While it only lasted for one season, it remains a memorable and entertaining addition to NBC's game show lineup.
