Jeff Probst's Survivor Debut: Barbaric Challenge, Self-Vote

0:00On April 23rd, Jeff Props made history on Survivor's 50th season by competing in his first challenge ever. With 11 players left, he joined the brutal Ristus Shored Endurance Test, gripping handles to keep buckets of sand, 25% of each. Person's body weight from dropping. The twist was a side bit. Four contestants volunteered to outlast him for tribe rice. Proves, whose hosted for 26 years without ever playing, got the idea from Jimmy Fallon. The late night host pulled fans, and they overwhelmingly wanted to see the 64-year-old host suffer alongside the cast. He admitted right away the weight felt way heavier than expected. Contestants wasted no time roasting him, replaying his classic trash talk from past seasons like, my nephew could throw it further. Proves power through pain, calling the challenge barbaric, but dropped after seven and a half minutes to cheers. All four betters held on, securing rice and celebrating big. Joe grabbed the real immunity win after that.

1:01Christian then took a solo journey with another Fallon twist, a puzzle for a secret vote. He failed, earning a penalty, first ever self-vote at tribal, no shot in the dark. Votes piled on him anyway, sending Christian to the jury as the fourth member. Props jumped back to hosting like nothing happened, teasing more self-rosets this milestone season to prove he has skin in the game. Survivor drops fresh chaos every Wednesday on CBS.
