"What Happens To The Turfed?"
Posted by Magus on 08-26-00 at 10:34 PM
From the preview of Survivor II after the Survivor Finale, the Tribal Council will take place at sundown atop a waterfall. In the first show, when a person was voted off, they crossed a bridge, into the woods, where they gave their final words.Where do they go from the waterfall? Do they get tossed in a barrel and hurled over the falls? Anyonw have some thoughts on this?

I had the same exact images go through my mind! They better hope they don't have another Sue on their hands... they don't want someone going on a rampage and throwing another person off the waterfall.

I believe the voted off castaway is at the mercy of the show's sponsors:1) Tandem base jump from the falls with a target parachute with the Target logo. The chute would be lit from underneath using a halogen helmet mounted flashlight. Very dramatic.
2) A beer sponsor (Bud Light) would have a keg-shaped barrel. This would tie in with a revival of 'I asked for a BUD liiiiigggghhttt." commercials
3) (and possibly realistically) They could have the person rappell down the falls. Burnett has a lot of experience at having rope courses on and near falls set up for his Ecochallenge, including nighttime descents. That would add an element of fear to being voted off.
