Since 2000, Jeff Probst has been guiding the contestants of Survivor through the perils of living off of the land. Over the course of 43 seasons, viewers have tuned in to watch tribes overcome physical challenges, scandalous betrayals, and emotional obstacles. But if competitors want to bring home the $1 million prize, they have to follow a lot of rules. Some of these regulations have been revealed by Probst and the show's production team themselves, while others are buried in the detailed contracts that have surfaced online through the years. (Just keep in mind, some of these contracts are old! Rules may have changed or evolved over time.) Find out what the contestants give up in order to compete.
