Which contestants are involved? The two winners, Jens “Knossi” Knossalla and Hannah Assil, needed medical help after their suspension.
During the 14 days in the wild and the ride to the 7 vs. Wild camp, everything seemed fine. The contestants were able to enjoy the greeting from their loved ones and the final ceremony. But just as the last shots were being filmed, the first emergency occurred.
One of the participants of Season 3 is the Twitch streamer Jens “Knossi” Knossalla. You can see more about him in our video.
The first emergency occurs in the camp
What was wrong with the contestants? After the ceremony in which all contestants received engraved stones from the filming location of the season, Hannah Assil did not feel well. According to some reports, the 32-year-old was standing in broad sunlight during the ceremony when she realized she had to sit down before she passed out.
She insists in the episode that she otherwise felt fine, but still received an infusion from the medical team at 7 vs. Wild. Additionally, the “Wildcard” winner received a plate of snacks like olives, berries, and chips to help stimulate her circulation. Hannah Assil now seems to be in good health.

Why didn’t Knossi feel well? The streamer Knossi apparently managed to get through the departure day without problems. In the scenes after the ceremony, he can be seen happily eating and talking with people. Knossi only felt pretty bad the next day.
After leaving the filming location, at the hotel, the medical team from 7 vs. Wild had to attend to Knossi. The season winner apparently had trouble digesting dinner. The influencer describes his symptoms as follows:
[…] I sat there like a fish at the bathtub, naked, lying there around the toilet, in deathly pain … and no strength left and then black before my eyes. Sitting on the bowl and just gone.

Knossi requested a saline solution from the doctor that was supposed to get him back on his feet. According to his own statements, he also needed an infusion last year to get back on his feet. He also took the opportunity to emphasize that he would no longer be available for future seasons of 7 vs. Wild.
Why doesn’t Knossi want to participate anymore? In an interview, which he apparently gave a while after the incident in the hotel, together with Sascha Huber, the two explain why they do not want to participate anymore.
We’ve done this now, it’s been twice, it’s twice different, yet somehow similar, this survival thing, we’ve experienced all facets of it now. I promised my family I wouldn’t be gone for so long anymore. It’s over now. For me, this topic is now finished […]

Knossi also suggests showing completely new contestants for the next season. They both found two weeks – similar to the other contestants – too long. Elsewhere, however, the entertainer has already expressed concerns that a real survival feeling did not come up despite the long duration.
That the contestants already discuss a possible 4th season so freely is no surprise. Season 4 of 7 vs. Wild has already been confirmed.
