23. "TV Guide Preview CHALLENGE shots"
LAST EDITED ON 09-06-11 AT 08:38 AM (EST)

Thanks to Survivor Fever for posting all of the TV Guide Preview shots! Always so appreciated!

I posted this below the above post, as I started to put together the challenge....

Here are the shots taken of the challenge course for Episode 1. These shots are mixed with the dreamteamers doing the challenge and the actual first challenge run with the Survivors. It is in sequential order. The name of the challenge is Coconut Conundrum.

It starts out with the tribes on their respective mats, and on Jiffy's go, they race along their respective lanes that intersect the other tribes lanes making it harder to get across.






Then, these 2 frames are thrown in and are way out of sequence. This station is right before the basketball portion. Chopping the multiple ropes releases 250 coconuts into a wooden frame on the ground. Once released the coconuts are picked up 1 at a time by 3 selected members of the tribe, to shoot into a net. Here we see Rick Nelson for the Upolu tribe chopping his ropes. Note that he is on his last rope, while we still see multiple ropes yet to be chopped on the other tribes side, in fact you can see when you look below the log that the Savaii tribe has chopped one rope and is working on the second when Rick chops his last rope.....when he chops that last rope, the coconuts will be released and they move on to that station...clearly the Upolo's are in the lead...


Here is a picture of another obstacle....hanging coconuts...

Shots of the Savaii tribe coming to the challenge....or are they leaving? Don't look too happy....


Various shots of construction and then dream teamers through the challenge...







Pictures of the "wall"...Note Dalton Ross on the blue tribe...




Note this is a vantage point from the top of the wall. Note that once off the wall there is the sand pit. One of the tribe has to dig in the sand most likely to locate a buried hatchet, that they then must use to chop the ropes that release the coconuts used for the basketball leg. Rick Nelson competes for the Upolu's and Ozzy competes for the Savaii's...








The tribes arriving, strategizing, and then starting...







Note for the wall, the Upolu's lift Rick Nelson up first to pull the others up, while the Savaii's lift Keith up first...




Note that Ozzy is the last one over, then Ozzy and Rick go to dig up the hatchet and move on to chop the ropes. As noted earlier, Ozzy is on his second rope when Rick most likely finishes the chopping and releases the coconuts...






Brandon, Albert, and Mykayla are the three chosen from the Upolu tribe to get one coconut at a time and shoot to fill the net to a pre-set weight, that will raise the other net full of coconuts....The Upolu's have a small lead...Competing for the Savaii's are Keith, Semhar, and I think Ozzy....





These shots don't look promising for the Savaii tribe. But, are they from the end of the challenge? Clearly they are all lined up and they appear hot, but, I don't know. It could possibly be from the start of the challenge? ? Semhar's expression is quite telling, however, imho...


















Transcript:

Announcer: Survivor just wouldn't be Survivor without the complex and physical challenges.

John Kirhoffer (Survivor Challenges Producer): Basically we're coming up with a big opening obstacle course. Here we are back in Samoa. It's a South Pacific theme so nothing works as well with a South Pacific theme as coconuts.

Announcer: To get the team ready for competition, John and his team hold practice challenges. This works out the kinks.

Kirhoffer: 23 seasons later you'd think we would figure it out.

Announcer: They do at least when it comes to some obstacles.

Kirhoffer: The wall is the most iconic quintessential teamwork obstacle because it takes an entire tribe to get over that wall. You really have to be working together, strategizing who's going to go up first. Who's going to stay on the bottom and help people up. Who is going to be the last person to get up the wall because they have to be fit. And then getting off the wall, there's a pretty good jump on the back. We also added a few different lines in and out of the coconut curtain. Where you run through all the coconuts, we put a few lower lines and higher lines to try to motivate people to go up and down. They just kind of barrel through them. The last leg, they chop through the ropes releasing a torrent of coconuts. I was envisioning a thousand coconuts, raining coconuts. We had 250 coconuts which is pretty good. And instead of a puzzle which was one of our few opening challenges in recent history that didn't have a puzzle.

Announcer: So how will it all come together? Here's your exclusive look as the contestants make their way through the Coconut Conundrum.

Jeff Probst: Season 23, first Immunity Challenge, here we go.
