The biggest elimination in Survivor history just took place in Season 50 Episode 6, “The Blood Moon.” The episode sent three players home in back-to-back-to-back tribal councils, and they were the last eliminations before the jury starts forming. Now that a triple elimination has been introduced in Survivor, could it return? Warning: Survivor 50 spoilers ahead!
Thanks to Ozzy Lusth‘s discovery of a lifesaving advantage, he and Rizo Velovic were safe on Exile Island to even out the tribes in the two-tour Episode 6, which aired on Wednesday, April 1, on CBS. Jeff Probst told the 15 players up for elimination that fans voted for big twists to be part of the game, so they invented “the Blood Moon” triple elimination.
