Greek Survivor contestant sues production company after losing leg

Former Survivor contestant Stavros Floros is suing the show's production company for 100 million dollars after losing his leg in a boat accident during filming in the Dominican Republic. Floros alleges that the production failed to provide necessary safety measures and adequate medical support following the incident.

Stavros Floros, a former contestant on the Greek version of the television show Survivor, has filed a lawsuit against the production company following a life-altering accident. While filming the thirteenth season of the program in the Dominican Republic, Floros was struck by a tourist boat, resulting in the amputation of his left leg above the knee and severe injuries to his right leg. Following the incident, he was transported to a local clinic and eventually flown to a hospital in Miami, where he underwent several surgeries and spent over two months in rehabilitation.

The 22-year-old is seeking 100 million dollars in damages, alleging that the production failed to implement essential safety protocols, such as deploying security boats in waters known to be frequented by tourist vessels. Furthermore, Floros has publicly criticized the company for neglecting his care during his recovery period. He stated that he did not receive adequate support or medical attention from the producers after the accident occurred.
