Gorka Ibarguren and Arkano starred in an exciting duel in Survivors. Both had to face each other on the infernal Ferris wheel, a demanding test in which they had to hold on as tightly as possible to various wooden supports to avoid falling into the water. After a “titanic effort”, in the words of presenter Laura Madrueño, Gorka Ibarguren took the victory but Arkano went further and demonstrated how good he was at losing and his great understanding with a message to both of their partners. «We want to dedicate it to our two girlfriends, who are Basque, Alazne and Andrea. Gora Euskal Herria.
After Mario’s final farewell to the adventure, Supervivientes continued to raise the difficulty of the tests, both for the contestants from Playa Olimpo and Playa Condena. It was time to face the infernal Ferris wheel, a classic from the Telecinco adventure reality show in which the contestants had to hold on, with their hands and legs, to a wooden structure that constantly rotated. The objective was as simple as it was complicated: defeat gravity and not fall into the water. And Gorka Ibarguren and Arkano dedicated all their efforts to this… for longer than expected.
The test gave a lot to talk about because from the set of Survivors itself, with Jorge Javier Vázquez at the helm, there were especially distressing moments. Especially on those occasions when Gorka Ibarguren and Arkano had no choice but to keep their heads underwater for a few endless seconds. However, in view of their resistance and the fact that the duration reached 20 minutes, Laura Madrueño – upon Poseidon’s request – invited them to support themselves only with their legs. And there the Alicante rapper couldn’t take it anymore and fell into the water. Gorka Ibarguren had just won the test and, therefore, the immunity prize.
Gorka Ibarguren and Arkano agree on the Basque Country
After the duel, both contestants embraced each other and seemed to get along wonderfully. Of course, Arkano went further and in addition to acknowledging feeling very close to his rival, Gorka Ibarguren, he took the opportunity to send a nice message to their respective partners, from Euskadi. “We want to dedicate it to our two girlfriends, who are Basque, Alazne and Andrea,” he said. The man from Gipuzkoa took the glove and went further, once again endorsing the love he felt for his partner: «We love you very much, we love you madly. “You don’t know how hard this is.” And Arkano, smiling although exhausted by the effort, ended the moment of thanks with a very particular message in Survivientes: “Gora Euskal Herria.”
