Incredible moment ITV The Chase contestants win record-breaking amount of cash

This is the incredible moment three contestants on The Chase win a record-breaking £75,000.

Players Mickey, Roy and Helen won a staggering amount of cash against The Sinnerman on tonight's show.

Mickey set the ball rolling as he answered four questions correct, earning £4,000 in the cash-builder.

But he took a gamble against Paul Sinha and opted for the higher offer of £22,000 - earning gasps from the audience.

Bradley proceeded with the head-to-head asking the first question and Mickey just scraped through.

Helen and Roy proceeded to succeed in the head-to-head round, with Roy securing £49k.

With three of them through to the final Chase, the team got a head start of three.

And Mickey was once again on the ball as he answered Bradley's questions correctly, leading to a score of 21.

The Sinnerman then took on the second set of questions and at one point looked like he was going to rob the team of their winnings.

But with one second to go, Paul could not reach a score of 21 - leading to mass jubilation as the Mickey, Helen and Roy won the prize money.

Helen started crying and said: "This is just life changing", as the trio took £25,000 home each.

This is the highest amount of money won between three contestants on the show.
