Chris has won Survivor, Vanuatu.
He was a HUGE survivor. I’d go so far as to say that he probably survived more than any other. He screwed up the very first challenge, which SHOULD have had him eliminated. He was outnumbered 6 to 1 by a woman’s alliance, who were hell-bent on eliminating every single man on the show. Yet, he won the whole damn game! Think about that, he was down 6 to 1, then 5 to 1, then 4 to 1, then 3 to 1, then 2 to 1, and he won the game. Truly Amazing!
Granted, the game spun away from the men vs. women during the time he was down 6 to 1. Three other tribemates, who basically felt that they were on the outs eventually, decided to pick Chris off of his feet, and give him a chance — because keeping him ultimately game them a chance. And that realignment was all he needed to win the game.
The night that he was down 6 to 1, Ami had immunity — she could not be eliminated from the show. Well, Ami at that time was basically head of the women’s alliance, and her friend LeAnn was going to the end with her. Well, the aforementioned realignment took place, and LeAnn never saw it coming. And neither did Ami! I was so happy that the game was making a change, that I literally was yelling in excitement. I was ecstatic that the smug tandem of Ami and LeAnn had been split up.
But, if I had to vote for the winner, I’m not sure that I would have voted for Chris. It was, after all, Twila who gave him the opening to continue in the game. But I guess that he took over from there.
He certainly survived!
