The production company and the network behind the popular reality show “Survivor”, the French edition called “Koh Lanta”, was forced to cancel the show after a contestant died during a challenge.
The competition show was canceled on Friday after Gerald Babin died from a heart attack in Cambodia. The man fell ill on Friday during the first day’s filming on Koh Rong, off Cambodia’s southwestern coast. The broadcaster said Babin had a medical examination during the show’s selection process, like other contestants. According to Cambodian police there were no suspicious circumstances.
The remaining cast members were flown out of Cambodia to Paris a few hours later. Channel TF1 and Adventure Line Productions released a statement saying they are “devastated” the Babin’s death.
