Jeff Wilson of Survivor 10 Palau
lasted only a week in the jungle, but his
participation and early departure were
rather distinct. A late-night ankle
sprain at the behest of an indelicately
placed coconut left him a shell of his
former hunk self, and being unable to
compete or pull his weight he became the
first castaway to be victimized by an injury
since S2's Michael Skupin. The latter
was dramatically whisked away by helicopter;
Jeff limped away from Tribal Council a
defeated and disappointed Survivor Hunk.
It would have been interesting to see how far he
might've gone otherwise. He'd already
formed a canoodling alliance with one of the
blond foxes, and his strength might've
carried him through multiple challenges.
But sometimes real life gets in the way of
things. Even when we're young & virile
we're hardly indestructible, our hopes &
aspirations are always subject to
unanticipated forces ~ and unfortunately for
Jeff, a rolled ankle will send you to the
bench every time.
