Survivor

Jeff Probst

What happens if a contestant breaks the rules?

All contestants sign a nine-page contract before being subjected into the competition. These rules are not explicitly revealed on television, and they are to be followed by every Survivor contestant, or face expulsion with possible forfeiture of any prize money, and in some cases, incarceration.On occasion, Jeff will shout at a contestant who is close to breaking a rule, and tell them not to do something, such as "No choking".During season 8, Richard Hatch sexually harassed a female contestant during a challenge. Jeff Probst, however, did not notice this, and did not comment on this at the time. The production team didn't interfere with this either. It is unclear what happened to Hatch afterwards.
