This is a question Biggest opportunity I've blown

Not Alan Partridge tells us: "I was once offered the chance to co-present a programme on national radio. Audience of millions, but blew up spectacularly, my entire contribution being the rustling of paper in the background. I was that bad, I have since burned my copy of the pilot show." Tell us about your big break, and how you messed it up.

Dramatic effect, innit.
If I were here to boast, "I used to be smart as a kid but am now depressingly average" is a pretty crappy effort.

I'm sure I could do better than that.
