Season 50 of Survivor featured returning players for the first time in six years, which gave several contestants the chance to add to their number of days in the game. With Aubry Bracco winning the season, she tacked 36 more days onto her total, moving her up on the list of contestants who have played the most days in Survivor U.S. history.

Colby Donaldson and Benjamin “Coach” Wade both surpassed 100 days of Survivor while playing Season 50, while Cirie Fields and Ozzy Lusth added to her impressive résumés with more days added to their totals.

Rob Mariano still holds the record for most days of U.S. Survivor played, while he, Fields, and Lusth are the only three contestants to play U.S. Survivor five times.

Thirteen contestants have managed to last a total of 100 days or more. Scroll down to see the leaderboard for most days played on Survivor.
