Jimmy Kimmel Takes On National Spelling Bee Co-Champions

S-E-S-Q-U-I-P-E-D-A-L-I-A-N.

Every year, Jimmy Kimmel challenges the Scripps National Spelling Bee champion to a spell-off. This time around, since the competition ended in a tie between 13-year-old Vanya Shivashankar and 14-year-old Gokul Venkatachalam, Jimmy had twice as much losing to look forward to.

Though with Guillermo presenting the words (dressed as a bee, because why not?), it's a miracle that there were any correct answers. The battle was hard fought, but in the end, there could be only one victor -- er, two.
