INTERVIEW
Denis Brogniart is unquestionably linked to the cult program Koh-Lanta. While the new edition of the program called "The island of heroes" is broadcast from this Friday evening, the emblematic host was at the microphone of Anne Roumanoff on Europe 1. The opportunity for him to return to these phrases become cults, including his famous "Ah!" who became a meme on the Internet.
"Their sentence is irrevocable"
The first sentence used by Denis Brogniart and which has entered common parlance is undoubtedly: "The adventurers of your tribe have decided to eliminate you, and their sentence is irrevocable."
This sentence that fans know no heart, was invented by ... Denis Brogniart himself, as he entrusted to Anne Roumanoff. "Initially, the Koh-Lanta project manager wanted us to find shock formulas that last from one season to the next," explains Denis Brogniart at the microphone of Europe 1.

And if there is a sentence that is very irrevocable, it is the fact that his famous "Ah!" has become cult.
If he did not expect such a phenomenon, Denis Brogniart admits "played" a little. This does not prevent him from always being surprised by the number of times we stop him in the street to ask him to make a quick video with this famous interjection. A popularity arrived by the social networks, but also thanks to a Net surfer who made a "compilation rap" which was seen more than 14 million times on YouTube.
What makes Denis Brogniart smile, and inspires him in his daily life: "I use it when I am trying to tell me something stupid, I often do it with my children, and more and more."
