Boston Rob Mariano and Sandra Diaz-Twine react to their giant Survivor statues

Entertainment Weekly

Survivor: Island of the Idols features "ginormous" statues of the Survivor legends. "I actually did cry, because Rob was like, 'You know you’ve made it when you got a totem,'" says Sandra. "Yeah, that was pretty wild," adds Boston Rob. "I definitely didn’t need any ego boost while I was out there, that’s for sure. We knew that they were building them. We went out to L.A. and sat for a CGI thing and the Game of Thrones people actually made them. They did our head where they measured us and everything, so they looked exactly like us. They’re like literal prints of us. Walking up and down the beach every day seeing a huge statue of yourself was pretty surreal."
