In 2002, The Weakest Link contestant Delia Clayton took home a staggering $189,500 after participating in the Tournament of Losers. This is the most money a contestant has ever taken home on the show.

During the celebrity edition of The Weakest Link, actor LeVar Burton was a close second who won $167,500 for charity during his time on the show in 2001.

These numbers are just for the primetime series, though.

Given the popularity of the show, the network also began airing a half-hour series of the show during the day. The highest amount of money that was pocketed during the daytime series was $53,000.
