This week’s episode of Survivor 50: In the Hands of the Fans ended with a major MrBeast twist that changed the course of the game. The star YouTuber dropped in for a visit, introducing a challenge for the contestants.
Who got voted off and how was MrBeast involved in Survivor 50?
The latest episode of Survivor 50 saw the elimination of Stephenie LaGrossa Kendrick. She gets voted off by the end of the episode, following a dramatic tussle with Cirie Fields, who was successful in steering the votes away from her.
However, the most unexpected moment from the episode is when Jeff Probst announced MrBeast’s appearance on the show during the Tribal Council proceedings. The YouTube icon unveiled his surprise twist in the game, finally revealing what is in the branded briefcase.
Jimmy Donaldson, aka MrBeast, presented a lucrative reward for the contestants. The “MrBeast Super Beware Advantage” featured a gold coin that players would play heads or tails with. Before flipping the coin, contestants must call which side it lands on. If they are correct, they will be safe from elimination and earn an immunity idol that they can use in future rounds. However, the most shocking reward of the MrBeast challenge is the prize money doubling to $2 million.
If the contestants fail to call the correct side, the prize money would remain at $1 million and prompt swift elimination without even a vote. In the end, Rick Devens won the coin toss, receiving the coveted immunity, the idol, and the whopping $2 million prize money.
Following Stephenie LaGrossa Kendrick’s elimination this week, the remaining contestants in the season are:
- Aubry Bracco
- Cirie Fields
- Emily Flippen
- Joseph “Joe” Hunter
- Jonathan Young
- Ozzy Lusth
- Rick Devens
- Rizo Velovic
- Tiffany Ervin
The next episode of Survivor 50: In the Hands of the Fans will air on May 6, 2026.
