Wait Claire played in 0 immunity challenges WHAT!!! 🤯🤯
BIGGEST SECRET IN THE WHOLE VIDEO!
I think Claire was trying to be the next Sandra.
@@teamsteed1or the next Abby Maria Gomez
Clair is going to win second chances watch.
My dad tore his rotator cuff in college 30 years ago, he had surgery at the time, and numerous when I was a kid, last year he finally had to get it fully replaced because of the intense pain it was causing him. Matt having a torn rotator cuff alone is enough for me to understand his "quit" but everything stacked on top of it? Dude is a trooper for lasting as long as he did in the game before it got to him.
Definitely. A quit that makes complete sense for MGM.
The whole situation is asinine, the fact that a doctor on set wasn't going to pull him with the amount of damage done to his shoulder is INCREDIBLY irresponsible on their part, there's a near 0% chance his shoulder would ever be the same if he stayed and received no medical attention for it
@@TheDXJC56what's asinine is Matthew taking off like "a bat outta hell," leaving his brain back on the beach, and climbing that slippery wet rock. I just don't understand the foolishness of this 40-year old man. But, tbh, I had to get stern towards my 60-year husband when he thought he'd jump off a cliff (about as tall as Matt's rock) and into a lake, like he did at 30. Noooo.

One more secret from the podcast I’m surprised you forgot:
41 and 42 had similar tribal councils but 43 and 44 had very different sets. Why? The designers who work on tribal council figured out a way to create 44’s tribal council set under 43’s and basically have 90% of it completed before they even began to set it up. Plus 2 extra days in between filming for the seasons allowed for them to create a tribal council far more elaborate than anything else we’ve seen in the new era
I didn't forget it, but that one was good.
i love how sentimental Yam Yam was about the buff. Love this secrets video series
This is probably the best survivor UA-cam channel. Never stop these videos!
Thanks! I have a secrets video on every single season now and its origins :)
So Jeff admits that his memory is terrible. There you go. That explains why he denies the existence of the 'winner's edit', thinks that the modern Survivor is harder than past seasons and said that 41 was the first season where they didn't give them food. He forgot.
I love how the show left in that Survivor 41 was the first to not give them food in the show and Ponderosa. Even though they had done it multiple times before.
@@OnceUponAnIsland It's hard for me to take Jeff seriously anymore. Everything he says needs to be fact-checked. That could be a segment in your future videos: 'Jeff fact check of the week'.
Based on how Probst talks about MGM and some other past quitters, I think Probst just defines the term "quitter" differently than the audience at large. For him, I think the term only applies to those who leave without an obvious, easily justifiable reason in Probst's eyes. He sees it as a negative, a slap in the face to whomever it's applied to, so if someone has to leave for a sympathetic of "justified" reason in the eyes of Probst, he doesn't want to tar them with that designation. Bi from David vs. Goliath, Lindsey from Cagayan, and Matthew from this season are all the ones that are "justified" in Probst's mind, compared to, say, Colton on Blood vs. Water, who quit because it was hard. Thus, he separates them. Obviously there are exceptions to this rule, such as Osten from Pearl Islands (whom Probst lambastes despite Osten actually having some major health issues out there, from what I've read), and Julie from San Juan del Sur (whom I would argue is not justified, but whom Probst gives a pass because they "knew it was coming", I guess? Probst's system is not an exact science, is what I'm saying.) The issue is that there's not a good, snappy term for "justified quit" versus "regular quit", so they end up falling into this kind of grey area.
Personally, I 100% agree that they should be classed as quitters, since they did have a choice, though in cases like MGM's, I don't hold it against them as a player, given the circumstances. I guess the point I'm trying to make with this ramble is that, to me, there's nuance in the term "quitter" that I think Probst doesn't see.
I think Jeff defines quitting as "giving up" in his mind, I get what you're both trying to say though
Watching Survivor there used to be a lot of times I was genuinely worried about the players. Not just challenges but living conditions. I don't mind safer challenges, since some old challenges seemed to almost be designed to cause injuries, but watching the players deal with the conditions was one of the better parts of the human experience of this show.
I think what the girl is saying at 23:00 is that she wants people to do their best and be their best, because it's better to beat someone at their best, than to beat someone at their lowest.
what jeff says about why it's harder to get different locations now than before actually makes sense. I don't think those reasons are forcing them to ONLY go to fiji, but it does make sense that they'd be more restricted than before.
I wonder if they've ever tried to do survivor on mainland north america, or would consider it. surely there's some places in america they could do it, and while yes, the american dollar doesn't go as far in the US as it might in other countries, they'd have less travel and insurance costs and probably a bunch of other advantages.
I think northern Canada or Alaska would be apart interesting. Especially in the summer when there is little to no nighttime. I think that would add a unique challenge for the players, plus learning from the indigenous cultures of the area would be really cool.
Probst not knowing what a winner's edit is explains a lot about how Erika.
She got all but 1 vote and yet they weren't able to show how and why.
i swear before season jeff praises the season but after it he trashes it if the people hated it or praise it more if they like it. Jeff is the ultimate crowd pleaser
He is the best hype man for the show.
I feel like Jaime was saying of when she’s playing, she’d rather play with people she wants to root for and people accept the life changing nature of the game and who rise to the challenge of survivor. This way, when she beats them in a challenge or in the game, it feels that much better because you know how good the person you beat is.
I think that got mixed with how she loved playing with the people she played with.
And then she was saying that even tho the conflicts and the sass of a villian can be fun, she felt better playing with kind people who welcomed her vulnerability
What's crazier is I cut out about half of her answer. It goes on much longer and maybe you're right, but it took way too long to answer something so simple.
IMO one of the best casts that Survivor has ever had. Over half the people could return: Carolyn, Carson and Yam Yam, Frannie and Matt B, Danny, Josh, Lauren, and Kane. Plus Matt and maybe even Bruce. That's 11/18!
I feel like mgm, bruce and heidi have more return equity then kane
@@chargestone96 I think Probst confirmed that Bruce is on S45 so I guess you're right about him. But Heidi? I think her best case scenario is to make the Final 3 and not win so I don't see any reason to bring her back.
@@TimeNap he is
I dont think heidis got much return potential but more then kane, kane had no storyline or screen time while heidi made finals and had something shown
I love the surprising secrets videos! They’re awesome. I also love Carolyn imitating Debbie cause she literally nailed it 😂
23:13 love how jaime’s still wearing her plant lady necklace
For anyone who is annoyed that they don't give the new seasons titles and just call them by the number. I have come up with titles for each of the newer seasons:
Survivor 41 is
Survivor: Genesis
As it was meant to mark the new era of survivor, in reference to the begining
Survivor 42 is
Survivor: Clash of the the Titans
In reference to the rivalries of strategic and physical players, such as Jonathan and Lindsey and Omar and Maryanne, etc.
Survivor 43 is
Survivor: Island of Triumph
Because everyone that season was triumphing over or had triumphed over something in their life.
And Survivor 44 is
Survivor: Knights of the island
In reference to the sword and shield immunities and the chess set at tribal
I was thinking this but this was my idea:
41: Dawn of a new age
42: Dangerous Fun
43: Beware Island
44: Knights of Armor
45: Birds of Prey
@@ch-su5oc All good as well! Idk why we can do this but everyone at CBS cant lol.
Fun fact there's not only the mat theory but the Season preview theory
In the season previews for 42, 43, and 44 Maryanne, Gabler and Yam Yam were all shown in the preview for that season!
22:35 I guess that's why Natalie couldn't give up her jacket
lol that made me chuckle
Listening to the secrets actually made me realize 2 things that frustrate me with the “new era”
1) too much music (idk how my brain landed on this) the scenes and moments in this show are starting to feel sterile and insincere compared to S1-16.
2) should Survivor be “fun” for the contestants? I thought it was a social experiment meant to push boundaries 🤔 they can make it fun for viewers but for the players? Idk if it should be “fun” for them.
There is lots of music in the earlier seasons. I just watched Pearl Islands and it is loaded. But, I do agree with number 2.
@@OnceUponAnIsland I guess I’ve just noticed more music in the middle to later seasons than I do in standard def survivor lol (the small music bites that indicate foolishness, goofiness, etc.)
This was my favourite recent season after winner at war this video made me love it even more I hope Matthew has another chance after he fully recovers
As of this comment’s posting Frannie and Matt are still together. And it’s wholesome to see they dont post much, but they’re comfortable living a reserved life
Survivor has a better ratio then the bachelor at this point 😅
finally im so exited
Yam Yam, Josh, and Carolyn are my favorite tribe ever
22:08 Frannie did return Carolyn's belt when she was voted out ...
Ironically for 41-44 the winners were talked to first
I love Carolyn so bad..
The Tika 3 returning is a need not a want
Yippie new video
With Claire now becoming a meme to you similar to Chet (Thanks Chet) imagine…
Claire & Chet For The Amazing Race!!!
More like Claire and Sami who is only 19 years old.
@@OnceUponAnIsland Oh boy! The memes you make... Can't wait to see who will get the meme for Season 45!
Bring the theme back. It's only 1 minute. We never complained before. We love it. Just bring it back already.
you should do the most surprising secrets of jeff's podcast
That's this video.
I'd love to see a season with no immunity idols.
That first boot idea I thought of
Heyo!
23:24 I'm dead lmao
And to think I cut down her answer by half the runtime too 😆
@@OnceUponAnIsland glad to know jaime's dodo edit translated to exit interviews as well 🤦🏾♂️
its better to have 1st boots vs merge boots vs runner ups
Bob bob On a Buoy: Bababooey! He's such a Stern mark!
I'd choose a cold beer over a stinkin letter from home! I don't get all the crying over the letters
6:47 dude when I saw this promo in real time I was like "they're not even tryna hide the fact that Heidi stands no chance at winning".......and then she got SECOND PLACE???????? She was done hella dirty
LOL plus all Jeff could talk about on his podcast was the Tika 3.
They should have brought Bob Bob buoy back for winners at war and had it be the battle back challenge.
didn't Adam mention right away he took the "clue" because he knew it was something and didnt want to give anyone else time to figure it out?
Two tribes: 1st voted off vs 2nd place finishers.
That would be better than all 1st players voted off imo.
ok but - hear me out - instead of fire tokens, the players can bequeathe shots in the dark - the more they use the higher the probability of safe scroll (like 1:1)
A forest fire in a rain forest...🫤
26 days is really not enough to be honest.
So... Jeff talks to everyone on the mat at the beginning and then they edit to show only the winner and a few others? Is that accurate?
Yes
@@OnceUponAnIsland I don't put much thought into what I don't see. I always assume he just talked to a handful of people and kept it moving, but it makes sense he would talk to everyone for future editing purposes.
So Matt didn’t quit but Bi did when she tore her MCL? 🤔
why are there secrets not about season 44?
Because they are interesting and the info was revealed during 44.
if that's the case, Bruce will win season 45
You forgot to mention that Sierra voted out her mom
That's illegal. No one is allowed to vote out their own birth mother.
I Will never be ok with the 26 days.... It's true is a MONEY thing which suck...
Cmon Australian Survivor is played in 55 days
MGM quit. There are no 2 ways about it. However, just because he quit, doesn't make him a failure. (Unlike Sandra. There I said it.)
Tom is so funny for that
I dont even listen to Jeffs podcast cuz i know he isnt trustworthy. He lies and makes up things just for the cameras then tries to convince us they are real lol. The thing about the winners edit not being real made me chuckle since it contracdicts so much that he has previously said.
It feels like with all the questions they try to answer its like they just don't wanna attempt to do anything new , and that's why this show is declining fast imo, nothing new happens anymore in a lot of aspects.
23:03
You know what's fun, the hourglass twist. So much better then fire tokens.
16:09 this has gotta be the dumbest shit I've heard for why they didn't pull MGM from the game, they've literally medevaced people for non life threatening injuries before, ik James from Micronesia had other stuff going on too, but the reason he got medevaced according to the show was that he could lose his finger/hand not his life. As far as I'm concerned MGM's shoulder is the equivalent to this, if he keeps playing he PROBABLY doesn't die but he also PROBABLY loses range of mobility in his shoulder for the rest of his life, and last time I checked he's a barber right? Kinda important to be able to lift your arm high enough to reach a customers head, much like how James' hand was important for digging graves, but I guess asking Jeff and Survivor to have some form of consistent logic with how they address things is asking for far too much considering the 87 different answers Jeff has regarding the existence of a winner's edit 😂
i need to know. why do they say JAM JAM, but its spelled YAM YAM?
Because that is the way it is pronounced. Just like how Asthma or Colonel don't sound the way they are spelled.
@@OnceUponAnIsland oh duh, true huh. thanks
please do the matt-theory since season 1 and get some real stats
The mat theory is only for the Fiji seasons, 33-44.
But feel free to see if it extends to non-Fiji seasons.
@@OnceUponAnIsland I don't have easy access to older episodes, but I would bet that more than half of the early seasons have the mat-theory still valid
@@OnceUponAnIsland great work though, I appreciate all these neat secrets videos
The GAYme Change!
MGM's edit is probably the most useless edits in history ever. They did him dirty.
Carson should have won smh. Props to Yam Yam though
Can't stand when ppl talk about Global Warming/ Climate Change/ Global Cooling etc., like it's a political issue. The earth warms and cools all on its own sinve the beginning of time regardless of human activity! We're so self important
So funny thing about what Caroline said, ADD and ADHD are considered on the Autism Spectrum, at least back when I was in a general arts and science course in 2019. It's just not brought up unless you look for it
I don’t think that’s true actually, but ADHD (and now they usually diagnose ADD as ADHD - primarily inattentive, instead of them being seen at two separate diagnoses. I just mention that because ADHD-PI is my diagnosis lol.) does have a lot of overlapping symptoms with autism, so that might be why some people equate them.
as someone who has both, that's definitely not true, maybe what you misunderstood is that it's common for people to have both, and if you have one it's more likely you'll have the other than someone who doesn't have one to start with. they think there's a genetic link, in that if you have autism you're likely to have a relative with adhd as well as likely to have a relative with adhd. there's also a symptom/effects overlap, which can cause issues with diagnosis, especially in pre-teens.
they're definitely not on the same spectrum though!
My problem with the “new era” is not all of the advantages or that its 26 day my problem is the lack of personality that each season has i mean there like carbon copies of each other generic marooning challenge and the loosing tribes have to do savy or sweat. And during the pre merge some of the players get to go to the summit. When they are at the final 12 or 13 they have there earn the merge and at the final 10 the split up into 2 groups and have a double elimination and at final 5 they go to a different beach final 4 they have fire-making and then at final tribal they have an open fourem final tribal which is arguably the most boring way to do that i get that it is supposed to be more productive an fair but me as a viewer doesn’t care if it is productive at all i want bitter jury speeches like Corines from Gabon and winner always wins 7-1-0 there are no themes for each season its just numbers 41 42 43 44 i mean the themes dont have to be very good themes like 43 can be octopus island or something doesn’t have to be very good all of the challenges are almost carbon coppies of each other you go through a bunch of obstacles and solve a puzzle at the end of it or an endurance challenge usually with a cringeworthy inspirational sob story about how you dig deep and never give up get some more diverse challenges like the gross food eating challenge or the loved ones visit or other ones and create some new ones as well they dont all have to be successful just as long as it interesting to look at and the advantages are the same as well steal a vote beware advantage and knowledge is power (props to 44 for doing something different with the bird cage) survivor needs to experament with new ones. And all of the tribal councils are boring because it is just a bunch of boring and generic survivor analgies we need some good drama happening during tribal but that wont happen because they are way to koombaya all season long because they dont cast any villains to create drama. Well that is my survivor rant and i do hope for 45 that they start experimenting again and start giving their seasons some more perosnality and not just be safe and politically correct and again not all of these ideas have to work i would much rather have a season fail and be bad than just be mid
