‘Survivor Greece’ contestant sues for $100M after losing leg on show: report
While filming the show in Dominican Republic in May, Stavros Floros lost part of his leg after being struck by a tour boat's propeller and severely injured his right leg.
A Survivor Greece contestant has filed a lawsuit seeking $100 million in damages after losing part of his leg during a boat incident on the show's set in the Dominican Republic. Stavros Floros suffered severe injuries to both legs when struck by a tour boat's propeller while spearfishing on May 11. The lawsuit accuses the show's producers of negligence for requiring contestants to spearfish in open water without adequate safety measures, placing them in heavy boat traffic.
Floros was transported to a Miami hospital for multiple surgeries over 61 days, including the amputation of his left leg and reconstructive surgery on his right leg. The lawsuit also names production companies Acun Medya, Acun Medya Global, Acun LLC, and media mogul Acun Ilicali, as well as Skai TV, as defendants. Floros is seeking compensatory and punitive damages for past and future medical expenses.
