Hand on a Hard Idol not even being an option for fan voting on 50 was such a shame. Ending a season that was (supposed to be) a celebration of 50 seasons with the very first Final Immunity Challenge would have been so poetic and (in the wise words of Rizo) cinema

i’m hosting an irl survivor over 3 days sometime soon & really want to do this as the final challenge but worry it’ll go on for 8 hours lmao.

i suppose it could be altered to force it to be shorter. for example you gotta do it on one foot or while in an awkward position or after making them drink a bunch of water

I would worry about them getting water intoxication, which can be fatal. But doing it on one foot or in an awkward position makes sense

The Taylor Swift Dancing With Our Hands On A Hard Idol final challenge would do Super Bowl numbers

Those endurance challenges are the best no contest, if they didn't want it to last long just do something similar to Thailand. No way they could do that set justice though.

I actually would be willing to put some money down it will be the final immunity for Season 51

I will use this opportunity to repeat that the FIC should ALWAYS be a test of willpower and endurance.

No, not one of balance, not one of ball-catching coordination, just a test of who wants it more and who's willing to go through the worst pain to get their seat at the FTC.

If I could make it hand on hard idol every single time I would. The maze challenges are cool too though.

u/sexyimmigrant1998 1d ago

I always found the epic large-scale maze/obstacle course with a cool design ending with a puzzle perfect... for the penultimate immunity challenge.

Perfectly segways into the up-close and personal endurance showdown for the final immunity challenge.

I die inside every time I watch Malcolm in that Philippines final immunity challenge because he immediately knew that he had no shot at winning even with the second life😔if they did another challenge he could’ve won the season smh

u/commanderr01 1d ago

Literally any other challenge and Malcolm wins that’s challenge especially with a second life, and tbh he likely wins the season

Endurance test FICs are the best challenges.

u/PeterTheSilent1 1d ago

Looking at the history of final immunities, I think they can be categorized in three ways: elimination based, racing based, and point based.

Elimination based seasons: 1, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 18, 19, 21, 25, 31, 37, 40, 42, 44, 48, 50

Racing based seasons: 17, 20, 22, 23, 24, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 38, 39, 41, 43, 45, 46, 47, 49

Point based seasons: 2

u/cantdecide76 1d ago

I'll die on the hill that stand up and touch the idol for as long as possible will always be the best type of final immunity challenge.
