Please subscribe for more Survivor stuff!! :D - Розваги
Please consider subscribe to my channel for more Survivor videos to come :D Thank you so much!!!
Make more of these for different seasons! It's awesome to see summeries of them!
@@jrandolh i don't have the source to make the old seasons tho D:
Have you tried using Hulu? Every survivor season is on there
@@jrandolh I don;t have the account for that so... :p But i'll try different ways
It's a lot better then Netflix lol
That’s funny, this video is about the same length of time as Chris spent playing the game.
Matt Simmo lol now that's accurate 😂 and it has a foreshadow at 14:28 :p
😂😂
no☠️☠️☠️☠️ u did not go there
Haha you have to hand it to him tho, he managed to do a lot with the short time he was there 😂😂
LMAOOOOO
“Let’s vote”
“Shut up wardog”
LEGENDARY
iconic lol
Interestingly, Wardog said he thinks he was talking to Ron that tribal and that's why Julia said it.
That was an amazing moment!
And then she got voted out, that's a win for wardog, a rare one, but one nonetheless
Timestamp: 12:34
Wendy : “No you can’t kill the chickens. They’re living creatures.”
Also Wendy when voted out: “Shower and Cheeseburger!!”
There are vegetarians cheese burguers
Cheeseburger is cheese not meat
@@jlucas9606 then don’t call it cheese or burger.
@@rhianpollard1282 it’s both. The cheese melts atop the ground beef burger.
@@TheDizzleHawke there are vegan/vegetarian burgers 🙄 people call It the way they want to.
"I can't deal with soccer moms."
"Oh my God, she lost her damn mind." 😄
shut up Wardog
I can sum it up for you in a second
3rd person voted out of Survivor-
Chris
The winner of survivor edge of extinction-
Chris
Steph Englander lol that's a fact
"I'll be back" -Arnold Schwartzneggar
I feel that this season wasted Aubrey's third chance and David's second chance
I mean David didn't do alot and Aubry had her chance but she got voted out by Victoria with an idol and an extra vote in her pocket so that was kinda her fault for trusting Vic
@@cat-mh2wp but 4 legends playing with returnees is kind of dumb nowadays. There was no way the newbies would give the returnees a chance to play. As you can see Joe and Aubry were the bottom the whole game, and every tribal council a returning player received votes. I didn't like that they put them as captains because no one would let them play, as you can see, they didn't had so much of a chance.
@@thewspacewaldervan6358 well Joe and Wentworth had allies and they would let them play
David went really soft this season, he really didn’t need to change much from his previous game since he made it to final 4 and was one immunity challenge away from winning the whole thing, but he did unnecessarily. He didn’t take the early shot on Wentworth when he should’ve and voted out Chris who would’ve been a number for him and Devens for most of the game, ironically the complete reversal of saving Jessica with an idol and voting out Lucy and that turned out to be one of the best moves for his game. Played from the bottom for the rest of his time in this season and finished in 11th place.
@@jackbrinkley4436 I think he still did enough to make it so producers might bring him back for another returnee season, I think Aubry hurt her chances a lot though, I don't know with this perfomance if she'll be brought back another time.
I would’ve highly preferred a Victoria win or even a Lauren win would’ve been good. Edge should not exist that late in the game
Jack Brinkley Victoria got screwed by the twist
Jack Brinkley I definitely agree. I didn't mind the edge at the start but as it just dragged on with no idea when it was going to end, that's when it got on my nerves.
Rachel Stackpole I was annoyed that it didn’t get harder in the post merge, there should’ve been an added level of difficulty to the edge where either there’s no food provided and you have to catch fish or scavenge if you want to eat, or if you want to get game related hide a flag or relic on the island everyday that progressively becomes more and more difficult to find each subsequent day and if no one finds it then someone has to leave the edge of extinction, either voluntarily or by vote of all the players on the edge.
Jack Brinkley now that's a good idea
nah Victoria or Lauren winning would destroy the season. Chris was fine but Gavin or Rick winning would have been a lot better.
On a season with David, Wentworth, Devens and Gavin, somehow Chris won
Colin Burleigh disappointing huh
Gavin did nothing but ride coattails, he was everyone’s prediction to win but that doesn’t mean he was a good player
Robbie Rotten he flipped the script all the time. everyone was toxically cama strong and he jumped ship.
Robbie Rotten Gavin played one of the greatest social games ever but was over shadowed by returnees and Chris winning.
@@robbierotten2874 People say this, but whose coattail's did he ride? Gavin didn't come up with many plans or do anything fancy, but he made flipped when he thought it would help and didn't receive a vote against him. Only person to not receive a vote and 1 of two to not be voted out in his season. He was in the majority for all, but 1 vote. I don't think Gavin was a special player, but he had a great social game.
You could just completely get rid of 3:50-18:30 because everything in there doesn't even matter
Jared Stegman lol this makes me laugh so hard 😂
People saying rick had a bad social game when Chris wasn’t even playing for 3/4 of the season
Both of these statements are true
Rick had an amazing social game, it's why all the others in the final 4 were desparate to get him out
Andy Olejarski No, his poor social game is why others constantly wanted him out. It’s the reason why he had to rely on idols.
@@a.jdeets5527 It was the final 4. They wanted him out bc his social game was good enough to secure all the jury votes
A.J Deets he also won immunity it wasn’t all idols
Wendy is literally crazy like who would give up their game for chickens
Le M that was fun tho
Something Nguyen it was fun but that’s something you do for only tv purposes
why would you kill chickens for a 'game'
@@DxsPro So you can eat??
@@parkzy2920 contestants asked to be there. the chickens didnt.
It was not a bad season at all. However Chris coming up to win it all from absolutely nowhere pretty sure left a bitter tastes in everyone else's mouths.
I thought it had a good cast with everybody in it to win it. Royally upset that my faves, Wentworth & Lauren were outplayed and eliminated but they played as hard as they could !
exactly my point. The twist is just really unpleasant to me. Other than that, this is a decent season, although, the edit is kinda bad for some players, like Aurora, Gavin or Victoria
Something Nguyen the overabundance of idols and the EoE twist killed the fun for me. I agree the edit was awful for most of the people on Kama because Manu kept sucking.
My only issue with the season was entry into final 6. It'd be more reasonable for either entry at final 8, or 2 people entering slightly after merge
The Rick Devens of it all ruined it for some people too, myself included. It’s not him personally, but he’s like the poster boy for so many things that are flawed with Survivor - forcefeeding players idols, garbage comeback twists, forcing the audience to like a player through overwhelmingly positive edits, and bad production twists allowing poor social/strategic players to do better than they should. I’m sad he got so much hate because he played the game that was handed to him, I just happen to think it was a shitty game and the fact that both the edit and the jury propped it up so much made me like it even less
I love how u included the wardog and Lauren throwing at the target just to expose wardog I’m dead
Tommy McPhee lol thanks for finally pointing that out
ugh I hated when he went back in like god dam just let Lauren do it
And to think he got Keith kicked off for being weak at challenges when he was almost Sandra level bad.
Him getting Kelly Wentworth out is the only target he hit all season!😂😂
"I'M READY TO JUMP SHIP"
"omg she lost her damn mind"
11:52 you’re just a passenger rick
Rick: *proceeds to get farther than her and play one of the best survivor games*
I can’t stand julia
“I can’t deal with soccer moms”
-Aurrora Survivor Edge of Extinction 2019
I hate you lol iconic 😂
Something Nguyen yes very much
so how many advantages and twists screwed lauren and victoria over, i would like a tally
Boosh Bear victoria and lauren should comeback for another season 😌
@@SomethingNguyenSURVIVOR I want Victoria Lauren and Aurora to return
CRAZY Survivor Fanatic Yass these 3 deserve a second chance!!
There weren't twists. Its called Rick Devens being better at survivor than them
@@j.thickey6518 because of a billion idols, a comeback challenge, and 1 idol that was literally handed to him by production
I feel the EoE twist worked very well during the pre-merge as no one knew that it was in play similar too the outcast twist in Pearl Island but I feel post-merge it should of been gotten rid of as the reveal ment that I became gimmicky
MegKBaker yeah it was decent pre merge. Hope they do it better in season 40
absolutely. I legit loved EoE in the first episodes with Reem, it was so refreshing... but then a free machette appeared and it started to be more and more boring. after the merge it was just bad expect a couple great moments (basically everyone getting reem'd). the finale was imo an absolute disaster - not just because of EoE, but also because of way too many idols/advantages.
MegKBaker they should do the second chance to get back in at 8 rather 6.
Reem - Queen of first Boots
Zane- King of first Boots
you mean Zane
lmaooo yea ur right
Arman but Francesca is pretty much queen of 1st boots too :D
@@SomethingNguyenSURVIVOR she(Franchesca) is the Grandmother
Cool summary, but I’m all about that Severe T-storm Warning.
i dont live in the US so i honestly dont even know what that is
Something Nguyen a severe thunderstorm is when a storm produces heavy rain, lighting, hail, thunder, and winds up to 58 mph. Can damage your car and knock down trees
MadlyAwesomeismyname okayy but what's up with wise, jack and montague?
Something Nguyen what?
Something Nguyen oh they’re counties in Texas
5:26 needs to become a meme
In a sense, Wardog paved Chris's way to victory
I think Jared Fogle played one hell of a game
Minecraft Cursed Wallpapers APP lol 😂😂 this is gold
Kinda good at first but it turned bad, especially when they continuously gave Devens idols
w jamie exactly. Thank god it isn't Ben 2.0
he found then himself, just like ben
Honestly the season has a bad start but got better
Lmao people like you shouldn't watch the show. That is an aspect of the game. To me personally, and underdog who has idols and wins immunities is better entertainment and better to watch on survivor than someone like Lauren or Vic because people say they were amazing somehow. Rick Devens FOUND the idols, they weren't given, he WON 4 immunities, as well as the challenge to get back in the game, and he had a really good social game, especially considering the cards he was dealt.
@@j.thickey6518 Hey, people are allowed to have their own opinions even if they differ from yours.
14:32 “and Lauren has the manu one” one single sentence said in anger robbed Lauren of a million dollars. What sucks even more is that Kelly didn’t mean any harm with it - they were each other’s closest allies
Victoria is so underated!!!
I blame the crappy edit. Same case with Gavin
Yeah, I just wish him and Lauren sticked to Victoria though. Just not a fan of someone got voted out then became the winner.
GBlox VN exactly. I mean Chris played his game but his win is just not right
Yeah! Even if my favorite came back, I would just only want them to make finals, or become somebody that will be remembered by the audience, not winning.
GBlox VN yup. This twist is just weird and then Probst just says the game is evolving 🙄
8:01 “follow this path, and your adventure will end.”
“PFFT.”
Thehider 1234567 wendy is super entertaining:p
Something Nguyen agreed
Rick, David, Kelley, and Wardog made this season. It had maybe the worst finish in Survivor history, but everything leading up to that was pretty damn good in retrospect.
Skyclad Observer finally someone likes Wardog. One of the biggest strategist of the season
@@SomethingNguyenSURVIVOR Wardog did his move on Kelly wayyyyy to early though. It was very clear that he was never going to get far in this season after he made that move
Chris is given a lot of hell for only being in the game for like 8 days, but he played the game as hard as he could when he returned, Gavin just sat there, going with the flow, not making any moves at all.
“But Gavin didn’t receive any votes for the 39 days he spent on the island!!!” - yes, because he wasn’t a threat, he and Julie was dead, useless meat, that anyone could take to the end and win against.
Like Wendell said, you might not like the EOE, but that’s the format you’re playing with, so it’s about what you do with the format and rules that you’re given. Chris did everything in his power to succeed with the format and play as hard as possible once he returned.
I mean, I'm mad that Lauren didn't win, but Chris earned the win with that play at the end of the game... Damn that was brilliant
Shane Tobin well he played well to be honest but his win is still bugging me
I still think Gavin deserved more than just 4 votes
PHX Master agreed, it would be weird but i'd rather him winning than Chris
Something Nguyen yeah
Gavin didn’t have a single vote cast against him the entire season
Played all 39 days
Yet only gets 4/13 votes 🤦🏻♂️
@@phxmaster9684 he is very underrated and i blame the edit of this season. so many great characters got a crappy edit, like Victoria, Lauren , Aurora...
I mean Chris did more in his 6 days than gavin did in his 39 days
Mikey Friesen that's what you see. That's why i said i blame the edit.
For a dude who hasnt had tv in years I'm glad to be able to catch up on the seasons I missed this way. Thanks!
thank you so much!! can't wait to show you more of these
Say what you want about Chris winning, (I’m not a fan of the theme “Edge of Extinction” btw), but he really did play the best possible game he could in such little time. He flushed out Lauren’s idol with what I assume is a BS story about Wentworth on the edge. That caused Lauren to want to make a move to early. She played her idol wrong, was exposed at 5, and got voted out when Chris saved himself with his idol. He played the idol that Devins gave back to him correctly, which ultimately bit Devins in the ass in the end. Chris gave up immunity in the final 4 (never been done before) to beat Devins in fire making, to try to get more votes from the Jury. Like I said, I think the whole theme of “Edge of Extinction” is complete BS and unfair to the players that haven’t been voted out of the game. However, he did play a perfect game when he won his way back, after spending 28 days on the Edge, (not to mention in just those 3 tribals he already made a better case for the million then Julie did all game). I don’t believe he is the most undeserving winner of all time. I think there are plenty other survivors who would take that title from him.
Bruh Moment exactly, his win is so itchy but he did everything he can to win
He’s still up there with worst winners tho.
DOGE yea, not in the top 5 in my opinion tho. Right behind Ben or mike Holloway is where I would put him.
God I loved Rick
Many people do too
Thank you so much for making this 😂😂 I completely forgot about this season and didn’t wanna rewatch the whole thing
Worst ending to a survivor season ever
agreed!!!! i didnt even care about the part after Chris cameback
I hardly remembered Chris by the time he came back so it felt like some random person won rather than one of the people I became invested in watching. I was really disappointed, but I did enjoy the season besides that.
Avery H I would like to remember this season as the rick devens season, but the way it ended I’m gonna remember it as the season where a guy was barely in the game and won
I wouldn't like Rick winning either tho, it would be literally Ben winning, part 2 - except for Ben not getting voted out in the pre-merge (plus fire challenge not being a secret)
charlie z well rick won consistent challenges, had people repeatedly betray him, and was playing when nobody else was, and harder too, and foiled plans with his fake idols, if you can’t accept that he was the best player in that season BY FAR, then I don’t know what to tell you
love how the goat of the season called rick a passanger
George K i can’t stand julia
Wardog is honestly so annoying in a 20 minute recap. He's so bossy.
He's so annoying
his voice sounds like a diet tony
ehhh you guys. Wardog was great TV - and until the stupid Kelley blindside he was playing really well too (not in challenges xD )
charlie z you do realize WardogPoker is the Wardog
@@charliez077 Staying in and playing well are a little different. Wardog was rubbing everyone the wrong way from the start and if he made it to the end against anyone with a decent social game he would've lost
New sub :D
I honestly didn't really wanna watch any of the later seasons (Not as good Imo) but I love these summaries XD
I'd love to see some earlier season recaps? (i.e. Heroes vs. Villains/China/Micronesia?)
Thank you
Chris: Gets voted out 3rd
Also Chris: Makes a million dollar fire
Also Chris: Played for a total of 3 minutes.
Lol this is accurate
Also Chris: Wins a million dollars
There are so many amazing smash cut edits in this! Also props to getting all the key points in
Please do this for every season!
I will try :D Thank you for your support!!
Devens would have been one of the best winners. As dominant as Mike it had won the final challenge. I hope we see him back soon.
He's a lock
Great video, fun to watch the key moments again.
Like everyone else, I'm glad Chris won, because the jury (made up of actual players) decides who should win.
Yeah, there were other players I'd rather have had won, but they didn't.
None of the Kama players deserved to win because they blew their significant advantage over the hapless Manu.
The wisdom of Survivor producers is evident in the wonderful 38th season, Edge of Extinction
Watching Rick have so much fun makes this season so much fun to watch
0:45
Nice cut there,
I Lethal I lol thanks😚
Joe was probably the biggest disappointment of the season, I mean what did he do again?
CJ Merritt drew the merger tribe's flag
I knew Joe was gonna flop like a fish on the wooden deck.
8:21 the moment this season went to shit
BingeFest1 agreed
This should be survivor edge of extinction in 7 minutes because u can just fast forward the game once Chris gets voted off😩
David Kalemba lol weirdest winner ever
Would you sit on an island for 30 days in no danger of being eliminated for a chance to enter the game at the final five, bypassing all the difficult jury management while bonding with everyone who was previously eliminated for an essentially guaranteed win? Wow what a compelling season.
Worst twist, worst theme, worst season, worst winner, and its not even a debate for me. FUCK this season.
Thumb Head exactlyyy!!
Thumb Head stay mad lol
I cant deal with soccer moms
Julia being voted out when she thought she was boss and seeing it slip out of herhands second by second was the funniest and most embarrassing thing ever in survivor history
irfan bpl can’t stand Julia
I can't believe Wenworth and Aubry wasted their 3 time playing in a season like this
that's what happened when returners play with newbies
Title: Survivor: Edge of Extinction in 20 Minutes
*Reality: 20 Minutes of Survivor: The Rick Devens Show*
Wardog tanked his game by making a move too early, Julie just sucked in general, they shouldnt have voted Aurora out at that tribal, and Lauren was an idiot to play her idol on Chris. I hate that Chris won this season, but these guys made too many mistakes on their own
Alex Torres yeah Lauren was played and i thought she is better than that lol
Okay but did they eventually convince Wendy to let them kill the chickens? Because tbh I’m not even vegan but I was rooting for those chickens.
No clue, probably they killed the chickens after Wendy's gone lol
Something Nguyen nooo they fought a good fight :,(
@@Katie-wf1lx woaw, hold up, I should ask someone on twitter lol
Something Nguyen lmao please do, I want to know! Btw I don’t even watch survivor, one of your compilations just popped up in my recommended one day and ever since I’ve been hooked on your 20 minute summaries! They’re great because I want to watch the show but don’t want to spend hours watching the whole season. Amazing work and thank you!
Katie oh my god thank you so much. This is DEFINITELY will be my motivation for all of my upcoming videos :D you are appreciated
This season infuriated me! Rick deserved the million through and through!😭
One Sock Wonder the twist makes this season bad
20:13 That music just caps it off.
Reem is legendary loved her, I want her back
And shane from panama
Ja La reem is the queen of first boot
@@SomethingNguyenSURVIVOR definetly agree. She better be back. I wonder how she'd be if she actually got to play the game. I assume hilarious.
Would you believe this is going to be used again in the 40th season “Winners at War” I’m not kidding
tragic
I think its great we get to see all the winners continue to play for the whole season
Samir D it is but it just annoys me that there bringing back Edge of Extinction this is not going to do well in ratings sure they made some bad seasons “cough” Nicaragua “cough” and got away with it but it’s an All-Star season you should try to make it great
WHAT NO
Chris and Devens had the best redemption arc's in survivor
"Laura has the Manu one" Wentworth killed Laura's game. 😑
Highwind Skies in a way yes
Yes but also Lauren wasn't respected by the jury anyway.
3:05 thats funny! I just fucked up my game and any shot of coming back and I will complain about being cold the rest of the season lol!
The whole time I was watching the season I had in the back of my mind a threat is gonna come back from extinction at the last minute and just get a pass to win
Kevin Getchell it’s so hard to watch tbh
This is the most forgetful season ever because I already forgot about this season
For me it has to be ghost island. Worst season ever.
I FORGET ABOUT IT TO
Nah, for me it was Marquesas.
Rigged ass HvHvH is worst
Devens should come back
Uncleruss 22 he will
I’m pretty sure I saw something saying that season 41 or 42 will be a returning player season so hopefully he comes back if that’s the case
Jack Lundy i doubt 41 would be a returning player season since we just had one but ya never know
Uncleruss 22 yea I don’t know how true it is but I hope there is one at like 44 or 45
It's so sad that all the people who deserved to win were kicked out before the final, people like Devins, Lauren or Victoria were pretty good, Julie, Gavin and Chris were just boring.
This season is a snoozefest
I forgot how unlikable Rick was.
MasonPlaysSurvivor ben 2.0
You know much good when Deven's is the cover LOL
Total Drama Mews clickbait 🤭🤭😂😂😂
@@SomethingNguyenSURVIVOR Clever you got me
The insanity of the Julia vote out almost outweighs how terrible the ending was
Don’t get why everyone’s mad about it being Chris. He built bonds and relationships in Extinction, won his way back. Was able to pull out some power moves with the Devins. And then took it in his own hands to beat his biggest threat (Devins) in a fire making challenge. Securing his win. Y’all just bitter. I ONE HUNDRED PERCENT WANTED LAUREN TO WIN THO. SHE DESERVED IT.
Keziah Greer that’s the point. He builts bonds and relationships in EoE, when other players can’t. I mean Reem, who voted out day 3 doesn’t know anything about Gavin and Julie.
I agree he deserved to win this season was edge of extinction and he played the twist perfectly
I thought Joe was okay in his first two seasons but, I hated him this season.
he was just bland :/
Edge of Extinction had the most outrageous swap ever.
that's probably the coolest thing this season has
Everyone loves to hate on Chris' win but this season wouldve been so much worse if Gavin won.
This season was pretty good, if you ignore Chris’s wins.
Lol the twist ruined everything
I loved this season still
david vs goliath is better imo :p
It was redemption island part 2.....
Dark Umbreon Yes, but without duels
*People from Edge of Extinction who deserve to and/or are memorable enough to be in another season*
Devens
Gavin
Victoria
Lauren
Wendy
Aurora
Wardog
Reem
Finally!!!!!
Thank you for your support :D
Hold up so let me get this straight
Despite not playing like idk atleast half the game chirs still won?
Whos idea was it to make the twist last THAT LONG
TheClassicStickman jeff’s idea probably :>
It would’ve been a better result if after Devens won the re-entry challenge the other 5 were just eliminated from the game and sent home.
I want to see Devens return he's one of my favorites
everybody loves Devens
Devens deserved to win that. No question about it
maybeeee
Or lauren
Matt Egan I miss the old days when someone like Rick would not be respected as a player, having to rely on twists and idols instead of actually playing the game.
Nobody should win after being voted out imo.
Didn't think people were even allowed to look through other people's bags yet here we are
um sure they are allowed tho. I think in Philippines, Malcolm looked through Russell's bag
@@SomethingNguyenSURVIVOR oh really? I just thought it would be unfair like if one person has an idol and someone could just steal it if it's in their bag
um sure they are not allowed to steal other people's idol, they just know that person have the idol
@@SomethingNguyenSURVIVOR oh thanks for the info 😅
um sure no problem, anytime for survivor fans 😝
okay maybe this is a bit of a spicy take but if theres no edge challenge at final 6 this is a top tier newbie season. Maybe its just me but the character moments we got were awesome, we got one of the best storytellers of all time with devens and if chris doesn't come back into the game im guessing final 3 has victoria devens and probably gavin still which would have been so interesting to see. IDK maybe its just me but if not for edge and chris's win I would have really enjoyed this season.
Exactly, the eoe twist ruined this season
The ladder half of this game when Devens dominated for weeks straight is so much fun but it wouldve been that much better if he actually won.
Homeslice Brice many people would agree
Survivor Edge of Extinction
I really liked Victoria
Same, got robbed by the eoe
3:45 Chris: I’ll be back
Devens should’ve won. Not Chris

Dr. Nitro the music is so dope tho :p
2:18 3rd boot competing with 4th boot for the win
the amount of idols Devin got was ridiculous
Will you be making one of these for Island of the Idols?
GoWho Dey yes, i’m doing it rn, stay tuned
This season is exactly like redemption island, Kama is like Zapatero and Manu is like Ometepe, and this season ties for the worst final 3 along with Nicaragua and Gabon
Me: Can we get Tony? Mom: We have Tony at home. Tony at Home: 6:18
The live tribal was the best thing that happened in Edge of Extinction
I didn’t like the timing of the second extinction challenge but let’s be honest the cast for this season was amazing. I wasn’t bored of any of them they were all entertaining and worked well together to make good TV
Audrey Lauryn yep, the edit made this season bad
