I got to ask Jeff more questions about Jake’s #Survivor49 snake bite, including if they debated triggering an early swap with his medevac, and whether they would open for him coming back for a second chance in a future season:

Jeff Probst shows us what we didn’t see from #Survivor49’s historic medical emergency, including Jake having to be taken to a hospital to Australia, and why they chose not to put him back in the game after they found out it was a dry bite: parade.com/tv/jeff-prob...

If I had a nickel every time a blue tribe of 6 people featured someone who had been medevaced and lost 4 people in a row in an incredibly emotional way, I’d have 2 nickels #Survivor49

So this was a challenge I got to do on the set for #Survivor49. A truly surreal experience battling it out on a balance beam alongside Monét X Change and Karl from Mr. Beast

(Also sorry, Kele, I bled all over your puzzle)

It is absolutely wild that we looked this far behind the curtain. From showing the binder of wildlife to having much of the action around the medical office at base camp

This has to be one of the scariest situations on Survivor, right up there with Skupin and Caleb #Survivor49

What happened to Jake is tragic, unfortunate, and unlucky

The irony is not lost on me that the Shoe Bandit got a snake bite on the foot #Survivor49

Rachel is a great reminder of how impossible it can be to dull your shine, especially with something you have so much passion/dedication towards. I’m so sorry you had such a rough day. Hopefully that person loses their dignity on a slippery wiener ❤️

I kind of want to have every #Survivor Blood vs. Water pair become an Extracted team

Could you imagine the Baskauskas brothers arguing through a one-way camera? The Twinnies growing tired of each other's attitude? Ciera pressing the button to extract her mom?
