A heartwarming video of a Wheel of Fortune winner donating all his money is doing rounds on social media and the man who has donated all money is now been hailed a hero by the public.
Wheel of Fortune is a show that is hosted by Pat Sajak and Vanna White and the duo in each episode wastes little time before introducing the contestants and then challenging them to spin the infamous wheel and answer the challenging questions to win the million-dollar cash prize.

However, one of the latest episodes of the show was a little different this time as one of the contestants was able to not only bag a huge cash prize but the man after winning the cash decided to do something good with it.
Scott Kolbrenner won an incredible $145,000.
"It's been a dark time. When I went on the show, I was doing it for the fun of it," Kolbrenner told Good Morning America.
"I said to my wife as I went on, 'If I do OK here, anything that I get, let's give it to charity.'"

He further added: "'We're very fortunate. Let's see if we can support some others who aren't as fortunate as we are.'"
"My kids didn't know. My parents, friends, family didn't know. So it was complete and utter shock for everybody in our lives," he said. "They were elated about it."
