  • While working on the secrets of Survivor: Samoa, I watched all of the raw voting confessionals and found it interesting the contrast between Russell and Natalie's voting confessionals and how they progressed over the season.

    First episode, first vote confession, and it showcases beautifully why Natalie won. She managed to be on the correct side of every vote, set aside her own feelings to do the vote that was in her best interest, and put worth behind the connections she made with people and kept her word. She made such strong emotional/social connections yet didn't let how she may have felt about someone change her vote if she couldn't influence the majority about it in advance. And she clearly saw each of the people she eliminated as a person rather than a pawn.

    People saying this shows why Russell was a better player but honestly it just shows he was super cocky; a lot of what he says just isn't true or is over exaggerated. Yes he did take charge but honestly he gives himself too much credit and it works on a lot of the fan base.

    When I first watched the Samoa season, I thought Russell got robbed. A few years later, I looked back and realized why Natalie deserved to win over him. Now though, as I'm watching her vote confessionals, she mostly says "I'm doing it for Foa Foa" or "Majority rules". Which is once again making me question why she deserves the win if she's not giving herself any credit for wanting people out. Is Russell just delusional for giving himself most of the credit for the vote offs or did Natalie have some sort of strategy with her vote offs?

Russell is really arrogant but seems to have calmed down a lot since his time on Survivor. He's spoken about how he would play differently if he ever did play again. While there are plenty of people who dislike him within the survivor community, he's also made more friends than you would think.

      Yep, that’s the problem he never watched survivor and viewed the game like a professional sport where the best player won no matter what and social bonds don’t influence anything. He didn’t understand or even know a social aspect of the game existed until recently! He never rewatched 19 or 20 which is part of it I think as well. His ego was so high from 2009-2015 he was just riding that high saying I’m the best player and should’ve won, then turned around and realized his marriage was lost and his company is gone. Survivor destroyed his life in a way it impacted his psyche for years.
