Australian Survivor contestant files lawsuit over injury

Australian Survivor contestant Jackie Glazier has filed a lawsuit after sustaining an injury during a challenge in the 2023 season.

Glazier, who starred on the Australian Survivor: Heroes v Villains season, has taken legal action against the show’s production company Endemol Shine Australia after breaking her collarbone.

The incident occurred when she was instructed to jump on top of two rotating boxes before rolling off into a pool of mud.

She has lodged a lawsuit in the Victorian Supreme Court, seeking compensation for damages, loss of earnings (both past and future), and medical expenses.

Glazier was forced to leave the competition due to her injury.

The legal claim, filed by Arnold Thomas & Becker on Glazier’s behalf, alleges the pit, which contained only 30 centimetres of water rather than 1m to 1.5m deep, was not prepared to provide a safe landing.

Testimonials

I’d been living the dream my entire life and it all came crashing down. When I was faced with a legal issue, I didn’t know where to start as far as making a claim. I saw an ad on TV saying give “Arnold Thomas & Becker a call…” so I did. 

After speaking with Lee Flanagan and listening to his knowledge of law, I felt at ease as he understood my situation and my occupation as a Professional Athlete.  I decided then and there this was the right law firm for me.

The fact that Lee was also a surfer and understood how I earned an income from surfing made all the difference.  

 My lawyers Lee Flanagan and Aki Munir are experts in their field and they certainly proved that.  Their legal assistant Lucy Maher was always on the ball and kept me informed throughout my claim.

 Initially I had approached another well-known law firm (who I was told were the best), but they just didn’t get it.  

I’m so grateful to the Arnold Thomas & Becker team – they achieved an incredible outcome for me.  I’m relieved to put all this behind me and start my life again.
