Been a while since I have watched that show but it used to be that contestants would get negative values for wrong answers. I think this video is a chop.

I don't think they can go negative dollars though!

Or they'd owe lots of money at the end of the game!

What is they do go negative dollars ?

Yes they do.
If they are at zero and they answer one wrong, that dollar amount goes against them, putting them in the negative dollar amount.

Only American version.

The Canadian version is usually preceded by a competition on who can apologize to one another after the final buzzer. Only after that all debts are forgiven and everyone goes out for a Molson

No, they just win nothing. They do not have to pay the piper if they end up in the negative.
One of my neighbors was on Jeopardy.
He was one of the youngest ever, hired by the NSA.
