Over-Extended

Over-Extended is a recurring challenge in Survivor.

Rules
Contestants place a wooden statue on top of a pole. At regular intervals, contestants will add another section of pole, to increase difficulty. If the statue falls off, that person is eliminated. Last person with their statue on top of the pole wins.

History
