The Survivor finale was seen on television on Sunday. Four
Survivors Finland Saana Akiola, who was crowned the winner of the tenth season of the program, says Survivorson the podcast behind-the-scenes reveal of the finale.
At the beginning of the final episode, there was a competition where you had to build a huge house of cards. Akiola was crowned the winner of the competition, but at first it was thought to be different. When Akiola had finished his own house of cards, presenter Riku Rantala said surprising words.
– Laura was announced as the winner, also included in the final three Saana Boelius says in the podcast, referring to Saana Akiola Laura-sister.
Akiola congratulated his sister and said in the same breath that he thought she finished the house of cards before him. The production heard the comment over the microphone and soon the producer of the program arrived.
– That moment was terrible. Laura was very happy that she won the competition. They said we watched the tape and Saana was the first, says Akiola in the podcast.
So the house of cards was reassembled and the moment of victory was staged anew.
– I said I can’t put this together anymore. It probably took seven ninjas, or assistants. They couldn’t put it together, Akiola laughs.
In the end, the house of cards was built on top of the platform and Akiola aired his victory.
– Now I would like to watch it again, says host and Juho Keskitalo, who also competed in Surviving.
Akiola told Iltalehte after Sunday’s episode what he plans to use his winnings for.
– It’s been quite a year. I was injured in the spring, and I couldn’t work because of it. In the fall, when I finally got to work, I had to make up a lot of hours that I canceled last spring, Akiola said.
– I’m trying to take care of next year a little in advance and pay fees, so that it makes it easier and brings a sense of security there.
Saana Boelius finished second in the competition and Laura Akiola came third.
