Stavros Floros, a former contestant on Survivor Greece, has sued the show’s producers and Greek broadcaster Skai TV in a Miami court after suffering the partial amputation of his left leg in an accident during filming in the Dominican Republic. He is seeking $100 million in damages.

Floros was 22 when he was struck by the propeller of a tourist boat while spearfishing in the area where the show was being filmed. The accident caused serious injuries to his left leg and right ankle. The young man spent 61 days in a Miami hospital and underwent several surgeries.

In the complaint, his lawyers argue that the producers knew or should have known that the area had heavy and dangerous boat traffic, but failed to take sufficient safety measures for contestants who were fishing and diving.

The production company previously stated that the accident occurred during a filming break, outside the competition, and that emergency teams provided immediate assistance. Skai TV suspended the broadcast of the show after the incident. The producers and the Greek broadcaster have not yet provided a comment to The Independent.
