A Definitive List Of Everyone Who’s Been Voted Off Survivor Australia 2021

The Brains and the Brawn go head-to-head.

It’s one of the Australia’s (if not the entire world’s) longest running reality TV series, and to this day Survivor Australia… survives.

It’s for a good reason. The dramatic elimination-based show measures the strength and resilience of contestants from all walks of life. From the bold and brave to the cunning and shy, they tackle a series of gruelling tasks and challenges that could make or break them. 

In 2021, the show spiced things up with a slightly different format: Brains V Brawn

Each ‘tribe’ consists of 12 contestants. One is jam-packed with smarts, the other brimming with peak physical ability. 

So who will win? Scroll through to find out who has left Survivor Australia so far.

Andrew, fire tribe 

After realising he was the culprit of an elimination quest between George and Cara, Andrew’s time in the competition looked like it was quickly coming to a close. That was until he was given one final opportunity to save himself by picking the correct urn following tribal council. Sadly, he exhausted his last chance by picking one that was empty—his parting words were rather apt: “Maybe I should have watched the show before going on there. Haha.”

Model and activist Laura Wells was sent home with just one single vote. While her time had finally come to an end, there’s no denying she had a decent run. 

What a wild ride. 35 days sleeping in the dirt, being absolutely filthy- it’s definitely time for a shower,” she quipped on Instagram.

He took it on the chin though, later writing to Instagram: “You have to accept fate with a smile, embrace the future and what is to come.”

Kez

When the contestants merged into the fire tribe, the stakes were higher than ever. Hayley played her immunity idol on behalf of Laura, which meant Kez who drew the short straw with just three votes to her name.

But when Kez was sent home, she left a notable mark on the camp. On her way out, she slipped her existing immunity idol to Flick—the feat has never happened before on Australian Survivor, but it is allowed due to a rule change made in 2019. 

Former Survivor contestant Nick Iadanza confirmed the change via Twitter: “Before All Stars [which aired in 2020], the rules were changed so that idols and advantages could be passed to others up until the torch snuffing.”

Speaking of the experience on Instagram shortly after her elimination aired, Shannon revealed how it put things into perspective for her: “Having an opportunity to live in nature and really take in the outback for all its worth really grounded me. I appreciate the simple things like salt, hugs and a shower. I feel liberated after not having to worry about my appearance for 20 days and feel like I proved to myself and others how strong I can be.”

Episode eight saw the end for Daini.
