Survivor Sumo (officially known as Sumo at Sea, Kung Fu Cannibals and Sumo in Mud) is a recurring challenge that originated in Survivor: Palau and was used in later seasons.

Rules

One member from both tribes face off in an arena surrounded by either water (Palau, Blood vs. Water and San Juan del Sur) or mud (Fiji and Heroes vs. Villains). Using their padded bags, or any other body part other than their hands, they must try to knock each other off the platform. Doing so would score their tribe a point. The first tribe to reach a certain number of points would win.

History
