Block auctions are a rollercoaster of emotions

We take a look back at some of the best reactions on Scotty's auction couch over the past Block seasons

Auctions are full of crazy emotions, right? Let alone having a camera in your face for TV and the extra pressure of and finding out if your 3 months hard renovation slog has paid off. Ahead of the auction weekend, we take a look back at some of our favourites faces and reactions from over the years...

Omar and Oz won The Block 2022, taking home the highest winnings in history, House 5 sold for a record-breaking $5,666,666.66. At $1,586,666.66 above their reserve price, that is the largest amount any contestants have made over a reserve in 18 seasons of The Block. Add in the $100,000 prize money and it means they took home $1,686,666.66.

It was what happened after the boys that left our little Block Family devastated.With Danny Wallis and Adrian Portelli ending in a bidders war for Omar and Oz'S House, the remaining four contestants suffered. Read the full recap on The Block Auction from 2022 here.
