This Thursday night will be remembered as the starting signal for a new edition of Survivors. The Telecinco reality show, which will premiere its 2024 installment starting at 10:00 p.m., comes loaded with new features but with the essence of previous years. Jorge Javier Vázquez will return to present the galas after the cancellation of Cuentos Chinos, monitoring the jumps into the void from the helicopter.
The free fall of the participants towards the island of Cayos Cochinos in Honduras is one of the most iconic moments of each season launch, leaving very peculiar scenes depending on the person. A fact that the collaborator of Así es la vida Isabel Rábago wanted to highlight during today’s program. Her intervention wanted to highlight what usually happens behind the cameras.
“You realize when it starts from the first moment because the team stops talking to you and looking at you. They try to give you a class on how to jump from the helicopter, that you forget the moment you get on the platform, and that is letting yourself go and jumping,” explained the collaborator and former contestant in 2015. However, of all the jumps that have been remembered during the previous hours, one of them stands out above the others.
That is what Tatiana Delgado did in the 2011 edition, when her fall caused a displacement in a breast prosthesis that she had implanted. That incident cut her participation in the program in the bud, forcing her to leave on the spot. “With all the problems I’ve had with my chest… it’s wrong, it’s different… I’ve had surgery many times,” Delgado expressed disconsolately when she was informed.
“The result of the test forces us to force you to abandon the contest. They have to transfer you to Spain urgently, because the specialists have to see your right breast. Here we believe that you can take a risk and you should not take it. “We cannot put your health at risk,” the presenter of the format at that time, Raquel Sánchez Silva, told him. Since then, and fortunately, the jumps have only provided more relaxed moments.
The segment of Así es la vida has also revealed other secrets of the program, such as the extremes to which cheating can go according to Alexia Rivas: “In my case, I didn’t throw myself into my edition because they put me on a boat for a month so that he would suffer more than on the beach. But they search you completely because you can’t put anything in there to help start a fire. There were people who went crazy and even hid things in locks of hair.”
