Matt Wright

The friction fire challenge shakes everyone; Patrick is stunned when he must give up his gathered materials; Cheeny has an edge, but her strategy risks it all; Matt's blistered hands could send him home; one survivalist is eliminated.

Starting with no tools, the survivalists scramble to prep for a brutal storm and two competitors are at risk immediately; a cutthroat survivalist puts the others on notice.

Pushed to the brink, three competitors send shockwaves through the Outback; all camps are disbanded and challenges going forward will be solo tests; hunting competition offers a protein reward; medics are called when a survivalist steps on hot coals.

Matt's tactics spark tension in another camp; survivalists compete in a primitive axe challenge; after the first big-game kill, a competitor must choose to keep or share their win; physical and mental strain of the challenge sends a survivalist home.

Under the sweltering Outback sun, competitors scramble to build Aboriginal dome shelters and avoid elimination; medics race to give aid when Laura suffers whiplash, and Trish gets toxic sap in her eye; a survivalist must be evacuated via stretcher.

In a rocket stove challenge, a worst-to-first comeback by a dark horse secures a critical asset; a survivalist gets a big-game kill and plots to shift the balance of power; a top contender's shocking exit rocks the competition.
