However for most of the 100 players, they manage to sail through the first few round which are deemed easy thanks to most of the general public being able to correctly answer them.
But for one episode of the Saturday night quiz favourite, eight people fell at an early hurdle.
They all failed to correctly identify the answer to the 80% question - which was all about shapes.
Reading the question aloud, Lee said: "You walk 10 miles northeast, then turn south and walk a further 20 miles.
"You then walk in a straight line back to your starting point. What shape do you make?"
With 30 seconds on the clock, the players did their best to attempt to answer the question.
As Lee joked that if he walked that far he'd have to call an Uber.
Once the time was up, Lee revealed that eight people had been knocked out and that the answer was a triangle.
Meanwhile, a recent episode of the show saw the studio filled with celebrities instead of members of the public.
The likes of Chris Hughes, I'm a Celeb winner Jill Scott, TV presenter Paddy McGuinness and Tommy Fury all took part.
The 1% Club wipes out seven players instantly on easy 90% question - but would you have known the answer?
Other celeb names included Scarlette Douglass, Iain Stirling and Westlife singer Brian McFadden.
However, things took an interesting turn on the show when Lee got to the 60% question.
He asked: "Which four-letter word fills all the gaps to create footballing phrases?"
Look here to find out what happened.
