Twenty four of the strongest and most strategic minds the competition has ever seen, will go head-to-head in the Australian Outback, where they’ll settle the age old question: Brains or Brawn? Over 48 days in the vast, arid outback of Cloncurry in North West Queensland, 12 of the most intelligent individuals will take on 12 of the most physically elite as they attempt to Outwit, Outplay, and Outlast the competition to take home the title of Sole Survivor and a life-changing $500,000.
