![]() Well, early on in the challenge, Jenna and Heidi both mentioned that they’d take their clothes off for chocolate and peanut butter. The first Immunity Challenge after the two tribes had merged was one of the traditional old school “stand on a perch and see how long you can stand it while Probst tempts you with food” challenges. This is probably the most memorable moment from Survivor: The Amazon, and it’s not hard to see why. ![]() I’d have been terrified if I were on the Jacaré tribe, too! Strippin’ for food Matthew said at the reunion show that he did this for show, but it’s hard to think why anyone would think sharpening a machete would make for a good character-building story. We obviously have the hysterical confessional from Rob, where he says, “Why does he need the machete so sharp? I think he’s gonna kill us!” while Christy had another gem with, “Matt’s creepy. Must Read: Survivor: Ranking the best Survivor seasons ever It freaked the other tribe members out, to say the least. One of the creepier memories from the show’s history came in season six when Matthew decided he really loved his machete - as in, really loved it.Īfter the two tribes had merged, Matthew took a shine to the machete and one day just passed the time by sharpening it for hours. The Magic-8 Ball that Rob brought as his luxury item was damaged, but he had it at the reunion and said it “survived” the fire. Nope, anything that was in the path of the flames was destroyed. ![]() Production didn’t step in to save people’s items or to put the fire out. No one jumped to those conclusions (except Rob in his confessional), but this moment proved how real the show is. All of that firewood potentially being the reason why the tribe’s shelter and everyone’s (except Heidi’s) belongings being destroyed wouldn’t be a crazy notion at all. The beginning of the episode made it a point to emphasize how much Butch loved collecting firewood. That left Butch, Heidi, and Jenna to head back to camp where they realized their camp had been significantly burned. When it got down to the final five, Matthew won the reward challenge and opted to take Rob with him. It was a great moment for Survivor that the women more than held their own and put the men in their place. In the first four episodes, the women and men each went to Tribal Council two times, and the women won their fair share of Reward Challenges, as well. The women not only beat the men in this challenge, but they continued to hold their own in future challenges. Must Read: Survivor Athletes: Ranking The Best To Play The Game From there, they had one more task, and after Heidi got the final key to free them and the women crossed the finish line, a truly memorable moment in Survivor history had occurred. The women eventually finished their task, caught up to the men, and flew across the balance beam with ease. That’s why it was quite entertaining when the women not only beat the men in the first Immunity Challenge but smoked them! It wasn’t looking that way early on in the challenge, but when it came to trying to cross the balance beam, Ryan and Daniel (karma much?) couldn’t get across it without either falling or their feet touching. The men were very cocky, and they weren’t shy about showing it. It didn’t help the men’s case that when they realized it’d be eight guys versus eight women, Daniel said, “We’re never going to Tribal Council!” Perhaps it’s because I’m a woman, it’s natural for me to root for my gender, but I was really pulling hard for the Jabaru tribe in season six. At that moment, the cast knew what was happening, and it was time for the battle of the sexes to get underway! Women kicking butt He called out four women and then paused before calling out a fifth. How this was revealed was that Jeff Probst called out a contestant one at a time and had them climb down into their respective boat. ![]() Survivor was finally dividing the tribes by gender for the first time in the show’s history, it’d be women versus the men. Normally, I list the most memorable moments in order of how memorable they were, but it’s hard to go into much detail about this season without mentioning the biggest twist thrown our way. It did just that with Survivor: The Amazon, which finally did what fans of the show had been waiting to see from its early days. What were the most memorable moments from season six of Survivor?Īfter a blah season in Survivor: Thailand, it was important for the show to get back on track and find its mojo again. Survivor: The Amazon was the sixth season in the show’s history and still goes down as one of the better seasons.
