Denis Brogniart was affected by an illness which forced him to stay in bed. Indeed, in the 18 years he has presented Koh-Lanta, Denis Brogniart has almost failed to be there to present this last season. Because without a favorable medical opinion, Denis Brogniart simply would not have been in condition. Fortunately, as you can see, Denis Brogniart was beautiful and well present to enliven the adventure. However, it was not a long, calm river. Because, in addition to concerns about his state of health, al production had to face the harsh remarks of a former adventurer. One of the candidates of the third season of Koh-Lanta, comes out of silence after 17 years. And she decides to crack sugar on the back of Koh-Lanta and Denis Brogniart.
Denis Brogniart was very sick
Denis Brogniart was there to animate, present and comment on this last Koh-Lanta season. An exceptional 20th season which will have aroused great enthusiasm from the public. Yet he almost failed to present this adventure. According to the magazine TonMag, Denis Brogniart was victim of a virus just before the recordings. Indeed, many fans of Koh-Lanta who had noticed that the presenter came back emaciated. And in order not to let rumors of fan debates on social networks arise, Denis Brogniart wanted to make things clear. The presenter then indicated that there was no reason to panic. His weight loss was due to the fact that he contracted a virus that gave him a hard time.
Koh-Lanta could have been played without the participation of the star presenter. But that was without counting on the determination of Denis Brogniart to do it. Because for 18 years, he has not missed an appointment. And for many fans of Koh-Lanta, it is impossible to imagine the show without its assistance. Fortunately, he was able to get back on his feet before the adventure recordings began. he tell so at TonMag that the virus that forced him to stay in bed was linked to an infection. So he had a lot of fever and therefore difficulty eating properly. Without going into too much detail, it justifies its weight loss in order to calm the concerns of the public who express themselves on social media. Adding that he would not be able to gild more because he himself does not know more.
A virus failed to prevent Denis Brogniart from presenting Koh-Lanta
What he can add as details is that TF1 planned to replace it if it was not able to present Koh-Lanta. The production then thought of Bruce Jouanny. A French pilot who co-hosts Top Gear. All of this was previously confidential. But Denis Brogniart explains that a solution had to be found. Because without the agreement of his doctor, he would not have taken the risk of presenting Koh-Lanta sick as he was. On the other hand, Denis Brogniart was convinced that he would manage to recover on time. Because he never failed to honor his commitments to Koh-Lanta. And his will was once again the strongest, allowing him to get back on his feet in time.
And to reassure the public and Internet users once and for all, Denis Brogniart says he has undergone a battery of very comprehensive exams. Whose results came back flawless. Denis Brogniart would have bitterly regretted missing a Koh-Lanta season. All the more this 20th season which was full of surprises.
Charges of a former candidate against production and the presenter of Koh-Lanta
But not everyone is under the spell of Koh-Lanta and its extraordinary adventure. After 17 years of silence, a candidate from the season 3 de Koh-Lanta wishes to denounce the shenanigans of Denis Brogniart and the production of the show. Hélène is a professor of letters who participated in Koh-Lanta alongside Moundir, Moussa and Antoine (dit Tony). And according to her, everything was done to favor some of the candidates over others.
This kind of accusation is unfortunately not new for Koh-Lanta. Indeed, this is not the first time that adventurers suspect the production of favoring certain candidates. However, testimonies are also numerous from other former adventurers to say the opposite. But Hélène is convinced that Tony was helped to stay in the race. Because according to her, his elimination was planned and the production then decides to change the rules to send him into exile instead. She is also convinced that Denis Brogniart did everything to try to destabilize her, without success.
Critics are not new and will not be the last
The last accusation dated before this one was addressed by Raphaël. He was one of the adventurers of season 4. And according to him, the departure of certain adventurers under the tents of the doctors only served to allow them to regain strength for the rest of the competition. For him, the illnesses or states of weakness of his comrades were rigged. Thus, those who benefited from a stay under the tents medics returned to better form than the others and were more successful during the tests. Raphaël will go so far as to accuse Denis Brogniart and the production of Koh-Lanta of manipulation to increase the audience. Because by voluntarily adding suspense, the public would be more hooked than ever to want to discover the rest of the episodes. Controversies that finally know all games of this genre.
However, numerous testimonies from other adventurers insist on the impartiality of the production. And even on the absence of their involvement in the course of the game. No favoritism, no outside help, all adventurers must learn to live independently on the island deserted from Koh-Lanta. And above all pass the physical tests and take the shock mentally to arrive at the final. Because the winner of Koh-Lanta wins the sum of 100,000 euros for these efforts. For others, they keep memories of an extraordinary experience.
