The History Of Immunity Idols On Australian Survivor

In a game where fire is life, there’s nothing a castaway won’t do to keep their torch alight.

They lie, cheat, trick, and compete in every single way with only one safety net; the immunity idol.

Every season of Australian Survivor has a new idol that represents the unique theme of each season and they can either win the idol at challenges or find a hidden immunity idol around camp.

Let’s look through the history books to see where we started, and where we are now.
