Russel Hantz Says Jury Was Wrong

The ‘Survivor’ finale was won by Natalie White. But fans that followed the show are unanimous that Russel Hantz needed to win the show and the million dollar prize as well. Hantz was definitely the fan favorite throughout the duration of the show. Russel himself thought so, as was clear in the interview he appeared after the end of the show. Let’s hear it from the man himself.

Being Fan Favorite: It's wonderful because that shows the jury that even the fans knew that I played the best game. And it shows them that they did make the wrong decision. The people are telling you, you made the wrong decision.

The Jury: I thought they would respect the game enough, because we go through so much out there, that they would vote for me. That’s why I was so confident, I thought that they would respect the game. But I was dead wrong on that. I played with a bunch of people who never should have played the game.

On Strategy: I don’t know how I’m going to play game until I start planning out who I’m playing with. I see if I can manipulate them, or if I have to follow somebody for a little while, to get rid of that person... I don’t know if I would play differently or if I would play the same. I don’t know that I would do it again.
