Jimmy Fallon twist sends ‘Survivor’ to jury. Here’s who made the top 10

0 4 minutes read

History was made on “Survivor” this week as host Jeff Probst competed in an immunity and reward challenge, and a castaway wrote their own name at tribal council as the final 10 survivors were revealed.

“Double The Fun, Double The Demise” – A boat arrives asking the tribe to divide themselves into pairs. This week’s immunity challenge features one of the biggest twists ever seen in Survivor history. Then, a theatrical risk taken at tribal council must be enough to cast doubt upon those on the chopping block, on SURVIVOR 50, Wednesday, April 15 (8:00-9:30 PM, ET/PT) on the CBS Television Network, and streaming on Paramount+ (live and on-demand for Paramount+ Premium plan subscribers, or on-demand fo

While the Manulevu tribe recovered from Rick Devens’ unexpected (fake) idol discovery at tribal council the previous week that made him the initial target for elimination, he wasn’t the player sent home. Christian Hubicki got his torched snuffed after losing an individual reward challenge on exile island and being required to vote for himself at tribal council.

The immunity and reward challenge also looked a bit different because Probst was involved. The challenge involved players gripping a bar connected to rope and bucket of water containing a percentage of their body weight. When the rope unraveled, the bucket would drop and the player would lose.

Probst made a side bet with four players for a bag of rice. If all four could outlast him, the tribe got rice. Tiffany Ervin, Jonathan Young Joe Hunter and Ozzy Lusth all outlasted Probst, who said he found new respect for how difficult the challenges are.

Before heading back to camp, Hubicki was selected for a side challenge orchestrated by late-night host Jimmy Fallon. Hubicki was tasked with solving a puzzle as anchors fell off the side of a barge in series. If completed before they all sank, Hubicki would have won the “Jimmy Fallon One in the Urn,” advantage giving Hubicki a secret vote ahead of tribal.

Instead, Hubicki failed and watched as the nearly complete puzzle was dragged overboard. He had to write his own name down at tribal council.

Two “Billie Eilish boomerang Idols” remain in the hands of two castaways. Genevieve Mushaluk, who was voted off in episode 6, sent one to player Rizo Velovic and the other to Lusth.

In addition, Cirie Fields has an extra vote and Stephenie LaGrossa Kendrick can steal a vote.

Next week, the remaining 10 castaways will be visited by one of the biggest names in YouTube and money-centered games, MrBeast.

Here’s more on what happened in “Survivor,” and how to tune in next week.

Who was voted off ‘Survivor’ last night?

Hubicki was voted off “Survivor” season 50.

Ahead of tribal council, Devens, Lusth, Hubicki and Emily Flippen were all potential votes, however, once the tribe learned about Hubicki’s punishment to write his own name down, he was considered an easy and obvious vote.

Flippen tried to turn the votes onto Lusth, though she was out-numbered. Fields and Ervin told Lusth she was targeting him and soon after pronounced their alliance dead moving forward.

In an attempt to build trust quickly with Young and to deter votes away from his name, Hubicki gave away his “shot in the dark” advantage to Young, though this made Hubicki more vulnerable and Young already wanted Hubicki gone.

In the end, Hubicki was made the fourth jury member.
