Huge risk pays off for Shark Tank contestant

The Shark Tank judges were left floored when contestant Luke Lucas rolled the dice and took arguably the biggest gamble in the reality TV show’s history.

In the episode, which airs tonight, Lucas pitches an idea for an allergy-friendly food business, which he runs with his girlfriend and business partner Chrissy Gelentis.

But the 31-year-old wasn’t finished.

Lucas dropped to this knee and took another huge risk, asking Gelentis for her hand in marriage.

“I couldn’t pass up the opportunity to tell the whole country that I wanted to marry Chrissy,” Lucas told Confidential.

“I couldn’t say no to that.”

This is reportedly the first proposal in the show’s history. Shark Tank moves to the new timeslot of 7.30pm tonight, so tune in to see if Lucas’ risk paid off!
