Applied 7 times!

This sounds exciting! I have applied to SURVIVOR 7 times and would do just about anything for a chance to be seen. I am not one who likes to rough it but the challenge of SURVIVOR is what intrigues me. I have even gone as far as having Lasik eye surgery in April in hopes that I will get picked. I knew that I would not be able to wear contacts or glasses and be able to compete in water challenges. I am all about SURVIVOR and anyone that knows me will tell you the same thing. My high school students are my biggest fans. They even helped me make one of my audition tapes last year. I hope this will be it for me!!


Thank you!

Thank you for putting the interview on here so that I could check it out! I am a true 'Survivor' fan! I hope that my son will try out for it because he has a very outgoing personality and it would be quite an adventure for him! You did a great job interviewing by the way! Must have been a lot of fun!

Thanks again! Sharon


I'm There

My wife has gotten several phone calls from friends telling her I would be perfect to be on Survivor. I've been hiking in the Indonesian jungle on the island of New Guineawhen I was 17-18. Got stranded in the middle of a raging river there and saved by natives. I'm looking forward to doing an interview tape to try my luck. Also I do land surveying for my proffession, so I am very at home in the outdoors. I hope I get the chance to interview for the show.
