A few crow’s feet, one or two wrinkles, graying hair… As we age, time leaves its marks and reminds us that life is not eternal. However, some escape these marks. The proof is with xavier. The candidate of “12 strokes of noon”which arrived on January 5, 2013 in the game presented by Jean-Luc Reichmann, returned to the program on the occasion of the “Battle of the Masters”.
This gave viewers the opportunity to discover or rediscover him during a magneto to recall his journey. And they are unanimous: it hasn’t aged a bit! “Yeah, okay, but how many liters of children’s blood did Xavier drink so he wouldn’t age in 10 years?”, “At most a few gray hairs for the guy”, “But Xavier is getting older- he ?” commented a few twittos, still shocked by the fact that it does not seem to have aged in 10 years.

Xavier, left by himself from the “12 strokes of noon”
Nowadays, xavier is the only candidate to have had no defeats. Indeed, contrary to Bruno who went through some difficult times after his departure, to Céline who recently ranted against the detractors, or even to Paul El Kharrat who reconciled with Jean-Luc Reichmann, the man to the 76 participations who left the game on their own, xavier chose to leave with 335,856 euros in earnings to find a job. Nevertheless, he occupies the 11th place of the greatest champions of the game on TF1 nowadays.
Although this sum is lower than that of Stéphane, it seems to suit him. In an interview with Tele-Leisurehe assured that he never regretted his departure, quite the contrary. “No, doing 76 shows was already something totally crazy at the time. I broke Alexandre’s record (75 shows) which had stood for two years”he declared to our colleagues before entrusting: “Making 100 seemed totally unattainable. Since then, a lot of water has flowed under the bridge. Ten years ago, I had the record, and now Stéphane has relegated me to 11th place in the standings.” Humble and without regrets!
