Survivor 43: The Winner is Announced!
Mike Gabler Wins Survivor 43!
Cassidy Clark is the Runner Up!
Owen Knight is the Second Runner Up!
Gabler -1st/18th
Cassidy -2nd/18th
Owen -3rd/18th
THERE’S NO WAY THAT ACTUALLY JUST HAPPENED💀💀💀
It just happened
That man just hid in plain sight and won the game
It didn't happened, under-edited male winner doesn't exist in survivor....
Jokes aside, congrats Gabler
Way.
@@Ethang1103 Well Cody is the true winner in my heart
I'm convinced we went into an alternative universe where gabler won
Actually we ain’t lol he deserved it because he was LOYAL
@@hhstrackrunna - He won because Cass pissed off too many jurors. Owen is a bum and a homo.
His performance in final tribal council….❤❤
Cassidy had a pretty weak game. Gabler deserved it.
@@someguy6568 agree Gabler was planting the seeds all game and was hiding in plain sight.
I'm not a big Gabler fan but the reactions we got from Owen and Cassidy made him winning absolutely worth it
Suddenly, Gabler's edit makes so much more sense. This is the story of how he comes from behind and wins as an underestimated underdog that earns the jury's respect. That early game makes his win even more impressive.
lmao
I was equally as shocked as everyone as the votes were read but what sealed Gabler as a deserving winner for me was his impassioned speech during the reunion, not just because of him donating the money, but how articulately he spoke about personal moments he'd shared with the other cast members, this man did truely have deep social bonds & that got him the win.
🙄🙄🙄
Yup makes him a phenomenal winner just for that lmfao
Bro I respect people opinions but this is something which is illogical or may be biased because this is game no one here to show humanity and any other thing cassidy survived very hard even after cassidy I think Owen was deserving but jury were so biased I didn't like winner not able to believe that gabler won the season who did nothing for winning the game
I don't really get these takes about Cassidy, the jury was basically like show us something you did strategically that you have autonomy over. Owen had nothing & overemphasized that he did nothing all game, Gabler pointed out the 1 post merge move that he drove (which was basically the only post-merge vote that Jesse/Cody/Karla/James didn't pioneer) & Cassidy pointed to a move she made & referenced her awareness of the game, only for this to be false & made worse by the fact that the move actually involved Gabler, unbeknownst to her.
Maybe the edit was bias because of the result but personally Cassidy came across as pretty bland & was just a solid ), 'normal' player, who moved with the big players making moves & was only ever targetted as a ploy to weaken these players alliance. She was the Xander of the season, not the Erika.
@@vvlogs3208 Cass and Gabler had very similar games, but Gabler was able to explain his game more clearly
Cassidy and Owen’s reaction was me
Gabler played a better then those two combine
@@garyleroy91 agreed.
If Russell could've loose to that blond lady this is not so surprising
IM SO SHOCKED RN I WAS NOT EXPECTING THIS TO BE THE WINNER I HONESTLY THOUGHT IT WAS BETWEEN CASS & OWEN
Bruh same. I thought Cassidy had it for sure. I’m a bit confused right now
@@jacksonia7724 I love gabe but like I was cringing so hard. Like
Same here but I'm not upset about it. Although I am surprised Owen didn't get any votes.
I only predicted Owen being 3rd. Gabler is fun to watch and seeing him win is so awesome. Don't get me wrong, Cassidy and Owen are great too. It's just feels right for me to see this
I knew Owen was getting nothing but I actually thought Gabler was gonna get a couple while Cass wins.
I'm pretty certain this is the first winner in survivor history to donate the entirety of winnings to charity. Wow, what a guy.
Gabler being 1 vote away from a perfect game is the most Gabler thing ever
Ikr the whole time I was like, “I should have expected this.” lol I love gabler
I love when Gabler would yell "It's Gablerin' time!" and then proceed to Gabler all over the cast. It's pretty obvious why he won
I love how Cassidy thought she won and then slowly realized that gabler won
Beautiful TV
Didn't see it coming but honestly, the joke's on me. What did Gabler say again and again throughout the post-merge? "I'm hiding in plain sight." That's a proven strategy to win the game, and it worked again here. I just latched on so hard to his "goat edit" from the pre-merge that I overlooked his under-the-radar game, to the point that I thought after the final 5 that everyone had a chance to win EXCEPT Gabler! 😂I'm still disappointed it wasn't Jesse, but I can't complain about such a good man winning.
Kudos to the editors on this one. We all thought it was either Jesse or Cassidy that wins and Gabler was a 0 vote goat 💀
I felt like this good man was going to win as soon as he started getting certain people to flip votes after the merge. I knew that Cassidy believing she had a better chance of winning over Gabler would be her biggest mistake and it definitely was .. it cost her a million dollars! He played a better game then most of them aside from Jessie & Karla & I'm glad he won he seems like a really good man
Jesse did nothing but ride on Cody's coattails. What he did was despicable!!!!!!! He has a PHD and a good job, they all have families and bills to pay. He didn't win anything, he just betrayed his best friend in the game.
@@jacquifisher1300 😂😂Salty much? You must have missed the part where Jesse spearheaded every strategic decision the Cody-Jesse duo made.
Jesse made and orchestrated the plans to take out Justine, Noelle, Sami and Cody, and although Cody wanted to take out Dwight, it was Jesse who proposed deviating from the James/Ryan split and agreed to the plan because it weakened his intended target, Noelle. Taking out Cody made perfect sense because (1) Cody had the same moves on his resume and could split the jury if he sat at final 3 with Jesse, (2) Cody would be a huge threat to win if his ingenious blindside of Karla had worked, (3) it flushed two idols, and (4) it was the biggest move of the season and looks good to the jury.
Not to mention Jesse built strong relationships and gained so much trust that not one but TWO people gave him their idols. You're free to say he wasn't your favorite, but you're just self-gaslighting if you think the man who runs away with the million dollars if he makes the final 3 "did nothing."
As far as blindsiding his best friend being "despicable"...I take it you're new to the show? 🤣🤣
He is not hiding. He's literally in a 51-year-old skin
sometimes it pays off to not have everyone on the jury dislike you. if the "outsider" can convince the jury of halfway decent game play, they become the frontrunner.
That’s why he won and Cassidy didn’t
W
I don't think I've ever been this wrong about a castaway
Others players made incredible moves, Cassidy’s jaw dropped when Gabler won, she couldn’t believe it and neither could I.
Not just her but also owen. What a comedy right.
@@robertlising1492the fact they looked down on Gabler rubs me the wrong way
Gabler probably didn’t think he was going to win either
Gabler is a good person. But Owen and Cass deserves it better.
Cass was the worst of the final 8
LMAOOOOO THIS IS ICONIC. Who would’ve thought Gabler of all people was a vote away from a perfect win?
Me lmao ask anyone. Everyone looked at me as a clown
I thought he was being overlooked and underestimated at best, but even then I thought he wasn’t going to win. I feel foolish now, haha.
@@some1iswatchingyou in heartichoke we trust 🙌
@@heartichoke6025 I said earlier that he was playing a much better game than the other people on there were giving him credit for. I said Jesse or Gabler should win. They couldn't tell he was playing a good game, but he was able to explain it well and convince them of how well he played in the final tribal council, which is a critical part of the game as well.
@@kagomefan101 I knew he was playing a great game and was being overlooked, but was afraid he wouldn't be able to explain it, but he did very well in the finale explaining and convincing everyone how well he played. You shouldn't feel foolish, because a lot of people didn't see it either. I think he deserved it over Owen and Cassidy easily. Owen is a great guy, in fact they're all very nice down to earth people from what I can tell, but Owen played the worst game I though. I wanted Jesse though before the episode.
I hope Jesse and Cody return sometime in a future season as I really enjoyed them and Jesse has a super inspirational story. Pretty good cast this time.
I felt so bad for him when he lost the fire making challenge. You could FEEL his extreme pain. He was really destroyed and upset by that, but it's understandable since he put everything into winning for him and his family.
Jesse and Cody seem like sure locks for a returnee season. Entertaining, good players. Jesse was SO close to winning
Heroes and villains would be great
100% agree with you. Jesse and Cody were definitely my favorite players this season, and both of their eliminations almost made me cry. I love both of them and hope they can return for future seasons like you said.
@@devilxking2 It would have been literally a perfect season if he did. I guess it was too good to be true.
Take out Jesse at the fire challenge made it possible especially after Gab stated in front of the jury that he wanted to do the fire challenge. Then he made the most compelling and believable argument among the three of them. He was clear, straight forward, and presented himself as deserving of the money. And I'm so glad he won it because he had said before in testimonials that he wanted to give the money away to charity. A class act all the way around.
Jury are annoyed by Cass and Owen. The fact that both of them were delusional playing a good game, however, they eventually riding through Cody-Jesse that running the game until final 6.
Karla also do not respect Cass and Owen game. Gabler was an honest and playing under the radar. He is playing the second best game at final four, apart from Jesse.
I am happy Gabler win but i really wanted to Jesse win it because it is not easy to survive and running the game without be a superior challenge winner. All coat tail ride winner must bring goat to the end, but Jesse bring all challenge beast.
Yeah, but I take issue with a statement made during final - forgot who said it, but they claimed that the veterans were 'protecting us all'. Protecting us from what? The Iraqis storming our borders? The Afghanis swimming ashore in the dead of night, strapped with bombs? Protecting the interests of the rich and powerful. The military is for sale and the highest bidder is the one with the longest drill bit.
Jesse’s strategy of taking out Cody then playing his idol at F5 always meant he would need to win F4 immunity (highly unlikely) or make fire to win. So Jesse bet his whole game on fire and lost. So in my eyes he doesn’t deserve to win
@@someguy6568 Well he was defeated at the fire making so of course he doesn't deserve to win. But I admire the ballsy way he played knowing it would put a big ass target on his back. He didn't do like some of the others and try to avoid a mistake. He played aggressively. He played to win and didn't play "not to lose". You may not respect that but just know you are in a considerable and small minority. And that's okay too. That's why they're called....."opinions."
@@viking956 wait I admire and respect the way Jesse played. He played a great game.
Gabler just “deserved” to win more since his game was better.
Congrats to Gabler for winning the game, but what he just did at the reunion shows how great a human being he is. He’s donating the entire $1 Million to help our veterans.
Wow!!!! Are you serious???? OMG!!! Gabler is such a beautiful human being, and as a veteran that warms my heart that he's donating the money.
@@saramatthews7159 #goldenheartgabler
That wasn’t the reuinion show
@@EzraDair Technically it was.
Not like he needs $1 million anyway. With the job he has, he can provide for himself & his family pretty well.
Very unpredictable winner! The viewers didn’t see this coming. But I personally think that Gabler’s game on paper is pretty good ngl!
Not really. I knew he was going to win
Except from Heartichoke.
Same, I thought he played a really good game, and was the deserving winner. Obviously if Jesse made it then I think Jesse should win, but as played I liked how it played out.
He was my winner pick pre season
Totally deserved. Yes Jesse was the fan favorite and yes Jesse made bold moves. But putting a target on your back is a risky strategy that doesn’t always pay off. Jesse gambled his whole game on fire and lost. I don’t know why people all say “Jesse deserved to win” when Gabler ultimately played a better game of survivor. It’s not a popularity contest.
Congrats to Cassidy for runner up! she played great, and she was my pick. I hope she returns!
Too bad Cassidy SUCKED when it came to her Social Game.
She Deserved To LOSE!!!
Gabler was AWESOME!!!
I hope the hole final 6 pluss Nicole come back
Bruh. She got one vote lol
@@the4throw28 Xander got 0 and people still say he deserves to come back
@@tj.8924 Yeah. But it's just seems kinda weird to give congrats to the person that got 1 vote, instead of the person that was 1 vote away from a perfect game
My favorite is how all the entitled players fell off towards the end and then humble Gabler comes in for the win!
2:30 i liked how cass and owen were looking at each other shocked. They're like how is this man winning??
And karla smiles after that. Proud of how sucks of a jury she is.
FOR REALLL
@@fvckthesystem3083 exactly? Like she was aligned with Cassidy then had a random hate towards her.
Made my day to see them 2 clowns squirm. They thought they had the sh#t in the bag!!!
@@fvckthesystem3083when Russel got fu*ked by bitter jury people were saying people on the game know the best..now they say naahh.. hahaha 😂
Useless fun fact: Gabler is one of only four winners to not immediately hug or immediately be hugged by at least one of the runner-ups.
Boston Rob just waves and says Thank You before running off stage to Amber and his kids
Tony couldn't hug Natalie or Michele for obvious reasons
Xander and Mike just stayed sitting down clapping for Erika after she won
Gabler turned and thanked the jury who ran up to congratulate him
Sophie hugged Jim first but Albert was already trying to hug her from behind at the same time. Rob kisses Amber while hugging her in All Stars. Vecepia fell off her chair but Neleh hugs her while she's on the ground
Honestly, I really enjoyed this outcome. I started to lose interest after Jesse got out and thought it was just going to be a predictable win for Cassidy. But to see Gabler pull from behind and win was a fun final twist to the season. Questionable? Yes. Entertaining? Absolutely!
He actually deserved it, but I wasn't sure if the rest of them were able to see his game or if he would be able to explain it well enough. He gave a great speech though and was able to convince them he was the rightful winner. I actually would have been disappointed if Cassidy or Owen won. I wanted Jesse to win, but survivor is a very hard game and it wasn't to be unfortunately.
Gabler 100% deserved it. If you can’t see why his game was smart, you probably aren’t.
What did Cassidy do the entire season other than win immunity? Gabler got Ellie out and got Jesse, Cody and Sami to trust him enough to form alliances with him
use me as the “i was not expecting that at all” button
Honestly, once the shock wears off, I think people are going to come around on Gabler's win as a social masterclass in playing the middle. It's textbook. It might not be flashy, but it didn't need to be. Gabler made strong bonds with every single member of the jury, he knew *exactly* what type of game he was playing and he owned it. He didn't put himself down the way Owen kept doing (if you're not hyping yourself up, why would you expect the jury to?) and didn't misinterpret his own game the way Cassidy did (Cassidy really didn't play too different a game from Gabler on paper, but she misread what she thought the jury wanted and I think she failed to realize that in openly denying Owen the chance to go to fire against Jesse and putting it in Gabler's hands, she showed she had no idea how Gabler was perceived and that made her the final victim of the Alligabler).
Palm fronds and Elie bomb aside, I don't think Gabler played terribly erratically. His game is very reminiscent of Sandra's Pearl Islands win (something he cited in his exit press), and I think as we get some distance from the season, people will come around not just to 43 as a whole, but Gabler's victory in particular. I don't think he's a bottom-tier winner at all. He didn't fall into the win by accident. He was just a goofy guy that no one took seriously . . . and he used that to his advantage. He didn't need immunities to get to the end the way Fabio and Bob did; he didn't need idols; he didn't even need to drive votes. He just planted seeds and walked away from the explosions.
This might be one of the best final tribal performances I’ve ever seen. He exposed Cassidy towards the end, and wasn’t afraid to take the spotlight. I was shocked by how well Gabler handled this tribal
@@Vivere17 I wasn’t a fan overall of the finale but I think the ending was a bit of a shocker and I enjoyed it
Definitely one of the winners of all time.
Yes he's definitely a winner
One of the what?
One of THE winners of all time
Right up there with Natalie white and bob
Gotta be the most winner ever
@@jacksonia7724 It's a meme format meant to suggest something underwhelming or subpar, as in "Space Jam was one of the movies of all time."
It's been like 16 hours, and I'm still chanting "GABLER WON?"
I was definitely a Jesse fan and was crushed when he lost in such a brutal fashion in that fire-making challenge. That being said, go Gabler! You can tell Cass was beginning to crumble towards the end of that FT. She knew she was getting outshined and was clearly getting flustered - or, at least it was framed that way. You had to have known once the Jury called her out at the end regarding the Ryan vote, she lost right there. Should've put her Immunity up against Jesse, in my opinion.
If I got a call to be on survivor I would practice with a flint every day until I left to go play. It blows my mind that people go on survivor and have no idea how to make fire.
This whole finale was just dunking on Cassidy and why she didn’t play a great game and I’m glad Karla at F5 and the Ryan vote answer with Gabler absolutely showed she did not have any of the power she thought she had.
Reality finally hit her and it was amazing to see
@@hunterg4167 Great Comment. She and Ellie seriously underestimated Gabler
The reading of the votes in Survivor 41, 42, and 43 just weren't the same without that audience cheering for the winner
Can’t say I expected Gabler to win, but I’m pleasantly surprised. I’m so sad Jesse didn’t win, but if he didn’t, I am happy Gabler did.
Gabler joins Tina, Ethan, Brian, Sandra (S7), Tom, JT, Cochran, Natalie A., Nick, and Tony (S40) to be the only winners who never received elimination votes in their winning season
This was one of the most unpredictable winners of all time congrats Gabe
Only unpredictable because no spoilers. Looking back at previous seasons, we had Samoan Natalie, Erika, HvV Sandra, Vecepia, etc. I would be able to see Gabler's win easier than them.
Gabler played the game that Mike thought he played last season.
Congratulations.
If Mike had the ftc performance that Gabler had, Mike would have easily won
“If you win, you win, The End!” - Boston Rob
this is the first Final 3 that I was okay with any of them winning, I am so happy for Gabler. He was my preseason pick too!
I’d wanna see this whole jury play again
Cassidy’s reaction was kinda funny I think she thought she’d won - the immediate winner reveal can be brutal 😂
She was so smug at the end, I’m happy the jury held her accountable.
I think she was schock that Gabler Won
She was so arrogant no wonder the jury didn't vote for her lol
She was so delusional this whole episode
Reminded me a bit of Xander from 41
To be honest, I honestly prefer the method of showing the winner right then and there. Just feels more natural, and less forced. Going forward, they should keep it that way.
My point of contention is how they handle the reunion. I agreed with it in 41 and 42, due to them having to for covid guidelines.
But I think with 45 and beyond, they need to change it. Either go back to live reunions like in previous seasons to really capture the "where are they now", or have them return to Ponderosa, give them two days to freshen up a bit, then bring the entire cast to the island one final time to talk again.
I did not expect Gabler to win but I'm glad he did since he pleaded his case well enough to where I might have voted for him too. Granted I would have probably voted Owen but still.
The most shocked winner of all time
What just happened
2nd after Chris Underwood
Natalie white was very shocked when she won.
Gabler was not shocked that he won
He knew he was going to win
Cass might be the most delusional player to ever make ftc, after maybe Xander
@@warriorsa-cash8534 he said in an interview he was actually shocked that James didn't vote him, LMAO seeems like he was way more aware of the jury then Owen and Cassidy
Gabler deserved it 100 %, the way he talked during his speech, so glad!
Survivor is now a speech contest. Lmao
@@fvckthesystem3083 Cassidy fumbled when they asked her about her biggest move, so yes, in a way Survivor is a speech contest, in the sense that everything you say at the Final Tribal Council has a meaning, and if you don’t articulate your thoughts in a well-thought manner, you will lose points from the jury.
@@fvckthesystem3083 No it is a social game. Gablers social game was way better then Cass. He was friends with everyone on the jury and made zero enemies. Thats how you win survivor.
HE WON???? HOW????
I’ve never been so wrong!!!
This shows that if you make the jury laugh
You win
Also playing the game extremely well and being a likeable person helps.
@@makel920 “extremely well” is a stretch Jesse played extremely well Gabler just played better than the other too
Jessie didn't win a single damn challenge and literally "fizzled out" and his biggest move of the year was set up because gabker planted the seed in his head lmfao
@@Doors067 Plenty have won without an immunity necklace and his fizzling out in the end was the fire making challenge happens to the best of us
Even more than 41, I feel like this season broke edgic forever. Did any edgic reader predict this?? I’ve seen many TH-camrs predict Gabler has no chance in hell. I thought he would be taken to final 3 as a goat like Laurel or Romeo
he actually was a 3rd contender for edgic, they thought it was caissidy or Jesee, with an outside shot of Gabler
I predicted Gabler was winning before this episode started
one person predicted entire finale elim order like hours before it, the rest all thought it would be cass. glad she lost after this ftc performance tho
@@huntyworkslayI didn’t think anyone bombed or aced final tribal. I actually thought Owen did well with his authentic and humble answers
@@freddytang2128 i thought owen did the best he could, but didn't know how to sell a game he knew he didn't do much in very effectively. i preferred his honesty over cassidy trying to boast for sure. i think she would've had a much better chance if she were similarly honest
I thought coming back and rewatching this almost a year later would change my opinion about this season.
It didn’t. This is still the worst new era season, in fact I’d rather rewatch ONE WORLD than this mess ever again.
I love this season! Team Gabler for life!
AND THE ALLIGABLER REIGNS SUPREME HELL YEAH
I don't mind Gabler winning. But I think the editors screwed up with editing.
I love you James for giving Cassidy second place.
I hate James, cause he ruined Gabler's perfect game
This is Natalie white and Bob level
I thought cass was winning
I find it funny Owen said he didn’t want to play the game like Woo
But ended up getting carried to the end.
Agreed
Owen showed way more strategic thought tho. He was at least self aware and knew what the correct move he needed to make was. He just didn't have the opportunity to do so. I don't know if I would say Owen was carried by anyone. He was targeted a few times. It just got to the point where others had become bigger threats. Only way you can say he got carried was when Cass took him to the end at 4 (which was to not let him build a resume because she percieved him as a threat). However by that definition Woo didn't get carried since he won immunity at final 3.
He really didn’t play like Woo. Woo was loyal to one person (Tony) while Owen couldn’t find his footing in the game because he had no loyal alliance to anyone. He was using voting blocks to get through the game and most of the time he was left out of the vote (he voted incorrectly 3 times). So that’s a bad comparison
Cassidy didnt even do anything in the season. I dont know why she acted surprised. She just hopped onto the wagon and voted with everyone else. She didnt define the season. She didnt have anything in her resume.
Am I the only one to think that Gabler is the new era Coach?
I`m so happy for Gabler, he wasn`t even on my radar until he started answering questions and being so open about it. If you can go through the game with-out getting 1 vote against you until the time when it matters, then you`re doing something right.
I have never been so shocked at a winner reveal. After Jesse lost the fire making challenge (which was devastating for me cause he was my winner pick from the beginning), I thought for sure that it was down between Owen or Cassidy, but GABLER WINS IT ALL. I still cannot believe it
Why?
@@1220MrCool I didn't see any major moves that he made to deserve the title (other than lead the charge to take out Elie). He did have a great final Tribal but even compared to Cassidy and Owen, it seemed like he did nothing
@Chris Lewis Survivor is not a game about big moves. It is about who can survive with a reasonable justification (i.e. their strategy) while being aware of the relationships and dynamics around themselves.
How did Sandra win H vs. V? One could argue she did not make any "big moves" visually, but she did. She was candid on how her original alliance was decimated, knew her position in the game, was aware of the relationships surrounding her, and made an effort to harbor opposing relationships early on and across the merge.
A big move can help you advance into the game, but it does not guarantee you a win if you are at the final tribal. Carolynn from Worlds Apart made a big move by trusting Mike and playing her idol at F6, negating most of the votes meant to eliminate her. However, her gameplay was not consistent as she was not generally aware of her surroundings and did not take charge to initiate her idol play.
Juries are meant to comprehend a player's plea and determine if it is consistent with how they played the game.
@@1220MrCool I'm not saying Gabler's win isn't justified (I realized the way I worded my comment made it sound like that it isn't so that's my mistake). However, I still found it shocking after all that happened
@Chris Lewis It is okay, and thanks for being open to recognize how you worded your response, and I interpeted it.
Why are the majority of people commenting so surprised by this? He's easily the best of the 3. Literally was the smartest player by far. Jesse made the biggest moves but fell short.
And Jesse made the Cody move, cause Gabler planted the seed in his head
I want to see them go back to the Survivor reunions where everyone is there. I want to hear everyone's comments! Not just the ones on the jury. U don't get the same affect speaking for someone else! Yea, he didn't need the money so should he had won?
Plus I feel bad for the other 2 finalists
I would say most winners don't 'need' the money and probably spend it on unnecessary things. It's his money so if he'd rather give it away than buy a sports car, i respect that.
Just think how the people who don't make it to the reunion feel!? No more TV time. They're probably like, WTF!?
I respect Gabler but there was something about Cassidy that made me want her to win.
Absolutely disgusting bitterness.
How? Gabler played a great game. His social skills were way beyond Cass. He was in multiple alliances and never pissed anyone off when they left. His name was never uttered during a tribal. The guy kill the social aspect of this game.
0:44 Cody's move and James's (and Jeff's!) reaction are hilarious. 😂
This is my 3rd time watching this and I get excited every time
Congrats Gabler! Thank you so much for your donation to help us! Semper Fi ~
I would have gave it to the woman
We truly live in the best timeline
Looking forward to Once Upon an Island breaking down Gabler’s story in an episode.
Evan cass and owen were shocked
lol yeaaa
I felt bad for cass. It looked like she really wanted it to
Why are people so upset with this win? I mean I get it, but really, it’s just a game. All of them played very well, and you can’t be upset about who won and who lost, you have to accept it and respect it.
100% agree
I agree.
I can't believe Survivor 43 is coming to an end so fast
This is easily the biggest blindside I ever experienced as a viewer
Can we talk about how he almost played a perfect game?
What game, he really didn’t do anything 😭
Gabler sat in the back literally the entire time doing nothing. Literally nobody took him as a threat at all and that’s not a strong game.
@@QueenJiafei429I mean vote wise like JT or Cochran
@@megaedge2762I meant vote wise like JT or Cochran
Eeeww
lol Cody said on an interview (showbiz cheat sheet) that Gabler wasn't a threat "snoozed around all day", "not really much strategy there" and Cass was a threat. Also coming out from the f5 exit interviews that Gabler's FTC was actually bad but they edited it with only the good parts.
Cassidy's game is probably a bit better but voting for who you like better is valid though. I'm fine with the winner.
Yeah. I'm not really gonna take Cody's advice on that stuff, he also wasn't the smartest dude
The Bob Crawley of it all wow
the way that this is just gabon 2.0. queen cassidy robbed
Noelle might win the fan favourite title this season.
She's my favorite she's a smokeshow
Honestly this season has loads to return
James
Gabler
Cassidy
Noelle
Sami
Obviously Cody & Jesse
Maybe Owen & Karla
Bring all the final 8 back
i dont think anyone deserves a comeback other than cassidy, james, owen, and maybe elie, the others have the potential to ruin another season with the same bitterness
@@kaan7309 lmao "biterness" sure bud
I’m so glad Gabler WON!!! The look on Cassidy and Owen faces after Gabler won is priceless 😂😂
Congrats to Gabler🏆.
If it wasn’t Jesse. I am glad it’s Gabler. I am actually shocked.
We have a new champion! I did not expect that outcome, but congratulations to Mike Gabler on becoming the 43rd Soul Survivor!
And the second winner over 50
The minute the jury vouched for Gabler being included in multiple alliances........i knew it as over for Owen and Cassidy.
He was in multiple alliances and still did not piss anyone off who got voted out. Thats amazing.
@@xmxh9596 correct. Incredible
Really wanna hear the jury on their thoughts going in. Was gabler the front runner going in? Seems Jesse and Karla were a tad bitter towards Cass tbh. Considering the respect they had, I could see them having a lot of influence on the outcome. Gabler was likable and he did sell his strategic game well. Personally, I felt Cass played the better strategic game but clearly her relationships with the jury were lacking.
During the aftershow it's kinda quiet and not in your face but several jurors including Sami Karla and Ryan said that gabler swayed them with his speech
@@cocosolis8240 awesome I'll have to watch it later!
I think gabler convinced them that there was a method to the madness not just a crazy old guy. The irony of Cass bringing Gabler as a sure win in her mind, just to lose to him Lmao
Im truly BLINDSIDED
I was genuinely speechless and I'm still shook.
After Karla left I stopped caring. This just made everything sweeter. I just didn’t want Cassidy to win! She should’ve been out before Lindsay got paranoid
Huh
FOR REAL!👏🏻
i was really expecting it to be between cassidy and owen. this really took me by surprise
It shouldn't have tho
Owen did nothing and Cass took credit for a move that wasn't even her own and the moment she did that, I knew Gabler was winning
@@warriorsa-cash8534 um both owen and cass won 3 immunities. don't say owen didn't do anything because that's completely false
@@lafingscarecrow Yeah, winning immunities, but he literally said in his ftc speech that he did nothing, so the jury believed him and that is why no one voted for him
he said that he didn't play a perfect game.
Gabler's jury management won him this game
I am glad there was at least one vote cast for Cassidy, since she definitely deserved second place over Owen.
That past 2 winners are way better than this winner. Ngl.
I really like Gaebler, and I’m glad he won, but he wasn’t the best player out of the three for sure
Also let's appreciate that moment at 0:45
Seriously, did anyone see that coming?? I thought the votes would be 1 for Gabler and 7 for Cassidy. I thought Gabler might get 1 vote at most but had no chance. I like Gabler, but this feels like the awkward kid somehow being crowned valedictorian. I’m happy for him but damn I was shocked
I think we can thank the editors for showing just enough of his game that his win makes sense but enough of his imperfections that we thought he was the goat. I like to think editing is on the up and up especially after no Purple edit again this season.
I saw it coming
and just like real life, valedictorian goes to the person who performed the best!
idk why everyone's shocked. I thought Gabler made the most sense out of the final three
I just had a gut feeling the whole time he would win. He truly did play the best out of the 3 sitting there. I can’t believe it’s such a surprise to people.
Same! He was my favorite to win since his post-merge vote against Elie (well, it was tied between him and Jesse, who I was rooting for 💔). As soon as Cass chose him to do fire against Jesse, I knew he was going to win the whole thing for sure; there was no way Jesse would beat Gabler when it came to fire. Loved this win!!
(edit was fixing the spelling of Jesse's name)
I know right. He easily deserved it out of those 3. If Jesse could have made it then Jesse wins, but part of the game is making it until the end.
@@ejvega I said many times that Gabler was playing a great game. He really felt the ups and downs of the game and understood what was going on at what times. He really had his finger on the pulse of the game if you know what I mean. I wanted Jesse to win the game, but I said if Jesse can't make it until the end but Gabler does, then Gabler should win.
The Gabler Galleon has reached its final destination!!! Congrats Mike Gabler!!!
Not yet matey he's gonna be back Fer all stars
@@Doors067 And that time when he wins, he will keep the money for himself
I think that's why he donated the whole prize
Cause he knew he could come back and win
Wow wow wow. I said it after the Elie vote byt I didn't think it would happen. Am in shock.
And so the 7-1-0 jury vote strikes again
Cassidy robbed
