Yes, I saw it on NBC this morning. Peter Greenberg - NBC Travel guru contacted American Express to see who had more miles than him. Peter has about 5 million miles.

The person with the highest was Steve Rothstein with 25 million miles. Its a combination of AA and UA, but he primarily flies on AA. His whole family was featured. His 12 year old daughter has 300K miles, 20 year old daughter has 600K and his wife has 1.2 million miles.

He flies almost daily, and gives a lot of his miles away to strangers since he earns more than he can give away. He recently lost his 15 year old son in a car accident. He seemed like a nice, down to earth regular guy.

The next person was a UA FF with 6 million miles, and they named am A/C after him.

They didn't mention what either of them did for a living or how they accumulated the miles.
