With one hand, the castaways would hang on to a rope with several knots tied into it. The rope would be tied to one end of a heavy log. The other end of the log would be connected to a pivot point on a platform that the castaways would stand on. The castaways would start at the knot closest to the end of the log. Every three minutes, they would change hands and move one knot further down the rope. This would increase the angle of the log at the pivot point and increase the weight that the castaways would have to hold. The castaway who held on to the rope the longest would win.
Additional Stipulation: For purchasing the Challenge Advantage during the auction, John Cochran is allowed to move two knots higher up the rope at any point of the challenge.

Malcolm becomes disappointed that they have discovered where he is looking for the idol, with Andrea deciding to stay at the water well and keep an eye on Malcolm, thinking that she could be going home if an idol is played. Malcolm eventually stops searching as Andrea stays put, eventually making Malcolm's search for the idol have no progress, admitting that not finding the idol could be a million dollars down the drain.
Later in the day, the tribe goes to the next Individual Immunity Challenge. Jeff Probst then tells Cochran to read the Challenge Advantage that he bought at the auction, which says that at any point in the Immunity Challenge, he can move his hand up two knots on the rope. At the challenge, everyone survives the first 10 minutes. At the 15 minute mark, Cochran decides to use uses his advantage, returning him to his original position. Brenda is the first one out as her foot slips, then Erik loses his grip next. At the 30 minute mark, the remaining castaways move their hands to the tail end of the rope – except for Cochran, who still has a knot supporting him due to the effect of the advantage. Dawn struggles to keep hold of the rope, but Sherri is the next one out of the challenge.

Reynold's hand slips from the rope, eliminating him, with Cochran and Eddie a showdown. Eddie eventually lets go of the rope, making Cochran win his second Individual Immunity Challenge.
The tribe returns to camp with Cochran wearing the Immunity Necklace, boasting at his confessional that he is the greatest challenge competitor this season, and hopes that he can keep on winning. Malcolm then admits to Reynold and Eddie that he is nervous going into Tribal Council without an idol and that he can't search for it due to the rival alliance following him and digging around him, and plans to bluff his way out of it.
