Have you ever seen a Tribal Council go so wrong\u2014or right, depending on who you ask\u2014on Survivor<\/em>?<\/p>\n

In the Wednesday, April 10 episode of Survivor: Edge of Extinction<\/em>, Julia Carter<\/strong> got the boot after what many are calling one of the craziest Tribal Councils in the show’s history.<\/p>\n

Everything devolved for contestants who were nearing emotional breaking points, alliances came to light and players pounced on the chance to shake up the game. Host Jeff Probst<\/strong> told EW he’s watched it over and still finds new bites and strategies revealed before Julia was sent home.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

“I’ve watched that Tribal a few times, and I find something new every time. It’s like watching a social car crash in slow motion. You see every step as it unfolds, but you can’t really pinpoint which moment was the one that sealed the deal,” Probst told EW<\/a> about what got Julia sent home. “I would guess that ultimately Julie<\/strong> [Rosenberg<\/strong>] had the say because the Lesu group knew she was the most emotional and the owner of the \u2018live Tribal,’ and in a case like that you just want to go with momentum and get to the vote as fast as you can.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

“As for Julia as a player, I think she was probably seen as a very big threat. She’s a very smart person with a sharp tongue, and that’s a dangerous combo,” he continued. “She can tie you up in circles if you get into an argument. The risk, however, is if that same sharp tongue angers the wrong person and Tribal goes live, you could be the one whose torch is snuffed.”<\/p>\n

The “Y’all Making Me Crazy” tribal council was just the latest shocking moment for a reality show full of them. Below, take a walk down Survivor<\/em> memory lane with us.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

Wendy Clucks Up<\/h3>\n

Oh, Wendy. The Survivor: Edge of Extinction<\/em> player made it her mission to keep any tribemates from eating the chickens they had won, even though she’s not even a vegetarian. She first even stole the flint, so they would have trouble making a fire to cook the chicken. Then, when she got an entirely new tribe in a switch-up, she followed through on her plan to set the chickens free in the dead of night. She was positively gleeful about having done it, and we were positively confused about this move in terms of strategy. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Dan Gets Nullified<\/h3>\n

The David vs. Goliath dynamic finally evened out several weeks into the merge when the Davids, with three advantages on their side, outwitted and outplayed the Goliaths to send Dan home with the help of a stolen vote and the first ever use of the Idol Nullifier by Carl, which rendered Dan’s precious immunity idol totally useless. <\/p>\n

The look on Dan’s face was incredible, and Carl proved he might be a dark horse in this competition as he celebrated with a jubilant, “Bing!” No joke, we were clapping. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Storm’s A-Comin’<\/h3>\n

Season 37 tortured the castaways with some of the worst weather ever, forcing them to compete in torrential rains and even causing a game-ending injury for one contestant during a boat ride on choppy waters. Every single contestant had to be evacuated during a cyclone in the fifth episode, which meant they had to be sequestered in simple comfort-free tents with no talking amongst themselves allowed, to preserve the game. The weather also resulted in one of the funniest episodes to date…<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Jacket Racket<\/h3>\n

OK, this wasn’t shocking at all, but we may never stop thinking about it, so we’re memorializing it here anyway. <\/p>\n

You see, in season 37, the weather was very bad, and everyone was very cold. Angelina was especially cold, and all she wanted was a jacket. First, she wanted Lyrsa’s jacket. Then Natalie tried to get Nick to give up his jacket to keep him from going home, and it all ended with Natalie going home, jacket in hand. <\/p>\n

“Natalie, is there any way I could have your jacket?” asked Angelina. <\/p>\n

Natalie didn’t respond, even after Angelina started timidly calling, “Natalie? Natalie?” as she got her torch snuffed out. <\/p>\n

Natalie then put her jacket on to say her last words and declared that if a jacket was part of the reason she was leaving, she wasn’t going to be giving it up. <\/p>\n

Maybe you had to be there, but we promise it was highly entertaining. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

It’s a Tie?!<\/h3>\n

Everybody knew something wild was happening at the end of season 36 when Jeff started reading the final votes while everyone was still on the island (and not waiting until the live finale reunion, as usual), but then it became clear: he knew it was a tie! Never before in the history of Survivor<\/em> had the final vote for the winner resulted in a tie, third place finisher Laurel was forced to choose between Domenick and Wendell. Obviously, she chose her buddy Wendell. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Game Changer, Indeed<\/h3>\n

Two-time contestant Zeke Smith<\/strong> was forced to reveal himself to be transgender during Game Changers<\/em>, after fellow tribe member Jeff Varner<\/strong> decided to out him in front of the other contestants. <\/p>\n

“There is deception here. Deceptions on levels Jeff that these guys don’t even understand,” Jeff said during the tribal council, just before he was eliminated. “Why haven’t you told anyone that you’re transgender?” The other contestants were outraged, as were viewers, with most calling it the ugliest move in the game’s history.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Snakes and Rats<\/h3>\n

Truly one of Survivor’<\/em>s most iconic moments was Sue Hawk’<\/strong>s speech during the final tribal council in season one, directed at Richard Hatch<\/strong> and Kelly Wiglesworth<\/strong>. Richard was a snake, and Kelly was the rat, with Sue advising the other voters to let the snake eat the rat. It was chilling and epic. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

A Major Mistake<\/h3>\n

Back in season 16, Erik Reichenbach had made it to the final five and had individual immunity\u2014a very<\/em> good spot to be in. But he squandered that good position when he handed over his individual immunity to Natalie and was immediately voted out. Viewers even got to see each and every vote before Jeff read them, because it was just so obvious. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Trivial Troubles<\/h3>\n

Oops! During a trivia challenge on Survivor: Africa<\/em>, Lex van den Berghe<\/strong> failed to win immunity…even though he actually had the right answer to a question. When the cast reunited later prior to the live finale, everyone realized the error, with CBS later paying Lex, as well as Tom Buchanan<\/strong>, who also was voted out due to the error, a settlement of $100,000. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

NSFW (or the FCC)<\/h3>\n

Survivor: Gabon<\/em> got off to a revealing start when contestant Marcus Lehman<\/strong>‘s genitals were briefly shown, uncensored, during the premiere. This happened again during Caramoan<\/em>, when Brenda Lowe<\/strong>‘s nipples were briefly aired uncensored in the third episode. Both instances were later removed from the airing by CBS. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

In arguably one of the saddest and most hilarious moments, Survivor: Micronesia<\/em> contestant Jason Siska<\/strong> believed he had a hidden Immunity idol in his possession…but it turned out to be a stick. A STICK. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

The Grandmother of All Lies<\/h3>\n

Jon “Johnny Fairplay” Dalton<\/strong> lied about his grandmother passing during season 7 in order to win the episode’s challenge and gain sympathy from the other contestants. He  was soon banned from all future Survivor events by Jeff Probst<\/strong>, but returned for season 16. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

The show’s first evacuation ever came when Michael Skupin<\/strong> fell into his camp’s fire in The Australian Outback<\/em>. After diving into the river to quell the burns, he was helicoptered out of the game. He would later return to compete during Survivor: Philippines<\/em>. <\/p>\n

Another shock related to Skupin came later on, when he was found guilty of four counts of child pornography in 2016. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n
