Stavros Floros, a contestant on “Survivor Greece,” has filed a lawsuit against the show's producers for $100 million, claiming the accident that severed his left leg was due to their negligence. The Miami-Dade County court document, reviewed by TheWrap, alleges that producers Acun Medya, Acun Medya Global, Acun LLC, Acun Ilıcalı, and Greek broadcaster Skai TV were aware of the dangers posed by boat traffic in the area and failed to take any protective measures.

Floros lost his entire left leg and suffered a permanent injury to his right ankle during the incident on a diving and spear fishing expedition in the Dominican Republic production location. The lawsuit also accuses the producers of providing inadequate medical care and attempting to fabricate an account of the event. Initially reported by TheWrap in May, AcunMedya stated that they were investigating the incident and that the injured contestant was in "serious but stable condition."
