survivor philippines: naak wins week 5 immunity challenge

survivor philippines' fifth immunity challenge was the same challenge used as the immunity challenge in episode 3 of survivor palau. please see screencaps below:
it was also used as the immunity challenge in episode 2 of survivor cook islands:

the challenge involves 6 cast aways per tribe, each person carrying a bag at 10 pounds each. each tribe would start at opposite ends of the round playing field. they would traverse the perimeter of the round fence. when a tribe gets to the last person of the other tribe, that member would be out of the game. she would pass her bag to the other member of the tribe and goto an enclosure in the middle of the playing field. the tribe that could eliminate all the other tribe's member will win immunity.

at the start of the challenge, it was evident that it was nikki who is jarakay's weakest link and it was kaye in naak. jarakay decided to let go of nikki and nikki was out of the race. they also let go of charisse in the next round. what they did not realize was that the weight gets heavier everytime a cast away is out of the game, which eventually slowed jarakay down. naak never lost its advantage and eventually won the challenge, winning it by a sweep: 6-0.

this is naak's 2nd win out of 5 immunity challenge. this is the first back to back challenge won by naak, after winning the reward challenge last monday. on the other hand, this is jarakay's first back to back loss and they will go to tribal council on friday to eliminate another member. this would be the first time that naak would have the advantage in terms of numbers.

hi! yes, it's the same challenge. the reason being: SP should use challenges that were approved by castaway productions. to save on time, SP went with those that were pre-approved by castaway prod. this is the reason why you see challenges recycled among the different productions of survivor around the world.

this was explained by paolo during a live chat.
