Trivia from Survivor 41

• What is the "Shot in the Dark"?

  Give up your vote for a 1-in-6 chance at immunity — Introduced in Season 41. It almost always fails by design — but a successful one voids an entire plan.

• Who smashed the hourglass in Season 41 and went on to win?

  Erika Casupanan — Smashing it took immunity away from the winning team and handed it to Erika and the losing side instead. She went on to win 7–1–0.

• Who was the first player to use an Extra Vote on two different people?

  Shan Smith — Shan, in Survivor 41. She was also the first to vote twice in a revote.
