Jens “Knossi” Knossalla is back at 7 vs. Wild and criticizes founder Fritz Meinecke and his colleagues.
What does Knossi have to do with 7 vs. Wild? Already in Season 2 and 3 of 7 vs. Wild, Jens “Knossi” Knossalla was one of the most popular candidates of the survival show. Starting as a despised outsider, he blossomed into a community favorite and proved to his critics that he has real perseverance.
This also led to new friendships for the influencer, such as with candidate Sascha Huber, with whom Knossi started further projects. Now the influencer has returned.

Knossi back at 7 vs. Wild
Why is Knossi back? Currently, the filming for the wildcard season of 7 vs. Wild is taking place. Initially, 30 candidates have to face various challenges in Sweden, before there are fewer and fewer. Currently, only 7 candidates remain who must complete tasks stranded in the wilderness of Panama.
As always, wildcard at 7 vs. Wild means that there are no celebrities, just viewers who are eager for an adventure. For the final 7, the show’s creators have come up with something special. They even flew Knossi in to motivate them at the exact location where the influencer and the other candidates were dropped off in season 2.
After filming for 7 vs. Wild, Knossi also returned to his spot for his own viewers.
What has Knossi experienced? The journey to his drop-off point was already strenuous for the influencer. Both he and his partner almost fell off the boat, while the strong waves created dangerous scenes. Knossi himself was also informed by the crew of his boat about the dangers.
As a reminder: In season 2, Knossi jumped out of the helicopter far from the beach and had to fight hard to make it to the shore. He stated afterwards that he had no memories of the experience.
The boat crew informed him in the video that there were many dangerous animals around the island, such as hammerhead sharks, jellyfish, and stingrays that could have attacked him.
In this context, Knossi also criticized “7 vs. Wild” founder Fritz Meinecke and co-founders Maximilian Kovacs and Johannes Hovekamp personally: “Are you crazy? […]” He also repeated his remarks from season 2, asking co-founder Johannes Hovekamp to delete his number. While there were real dangers on site, Knossi’s comments are likely not entirely serious.

How did it go at the spot? Upon arriving at the former drop-off point, Knossi showed his partner and the chat his temporary home. He retrieved some coconuts from the palm tree, found some things he had used back then, and took his viewers along with a bit of nostalgia.
The influencer also hung a hammock in the same spot where they had it in season 2 of 7 vs. Wild. Knossi and his wife even spent the night at the drop-off point to experience the feeling of back then one more time.
What the two experienced at night is shown by Knossi in an extra video on YouTube, which reminds of 7 vs. Wild itself. Whether Knossi will also be part of future seasons of the series is still unclear.
However, Knossi is also participating as a guest star in the new competition to 7 vs. Wild. This comes from the founders of the show and will challenge the candidates for 48 hours. Here you can find out more: Successor to 7 vs. Wild starts in two weeks, Fritz Meinecke is also involved
