CHAPEL HILL, N.C. (WTVD) — A Chapel Hill man won the episode of Jeopardy that aired Wednesday night on ABC11.

Joseph Carlstein graduated from East Chapel Hill High School and is currently a doctoral student at the Wharton School.

He had a $10,000 lead going into Final Jeopardy.

The Final Jeopardy category was Artifacts and the answer was, “Approximately 180 of these were made & 50 left; the man who created them received a pension from the Archbishop of Mainz in 1465.”

“What is Gutenberg’s Bible” was the question.

Carlstein and one other contestant came up with the right question, but Carlstein bet enough to end the game in first place with $16,001.

Carlstein will be on Jeopardy again Thursday, trying to become a multi-game Jeopardy winner.
