Even though they didn't get voted out, I think the schoolyard pick in Palau was heartbreaking. They made it all the way through casting only to not get picked to be on a tribe.
Janet from S39 - it was heartbreaking for many reasons. First of all she was such a hero character and a big inspiration. Then her confessionals - she thought she was safe because of the idol and didn't see the idol nullifier coming. She also said how she thinks she could actually make it to the end and win. And as a viewer you could tell from a far that she would be taken out. And in her final words she was also so devastated "I feel like a fool for allowing myself to think that I could actually win".
@@coolguyc4sey Who is Tommy? Is crazy how little positive things I remember of that final 3. Even though Janet was not a super exciting option to be the winner she was the most exciting of the final 6. Probably the first four merge boots took out the 4 best players, but Janet was the decent winner after a horrible messy season
ICool163 I agree, besides your 4 and 5. The writing was just on the wall for those legends to go home, the producers didn’t screw them out of anything and they were just on the wrong side of the numbers in positions where they weren’t attractive to keep
Dawn was a bit of a mess emotionally but made a bold game move, wasn't personal, but was a really bad lead up to take out Brenda. I felt bad for her but that went away when she was straight up vicious to Dawn at final tribal. That was cold.
I always thought about how sad Tina's elimination was, you can really see how her grief gets lost in translation in the episode. Heart wrenching start to what becomes one of the kookiest seasons ever
Especially because of what she was going through in her personal life, because I can't even begin to imagine the pain of being out on an island surrounded by strangers with nothing to do for 3 days while you've recently had to bury your son
I still remember Brenda's last words from that tribal: "I was honest with you guys. I was genuine with you guys. It hurts." all between restrained sobs. It was so sad to see.
1. Kellee from Island of Idols-The gaslighting that occurred about sexual harassment and the fact that she had an idol in her pocket when she was voted out made this one really sting. 3. Malcolm from Philippines-I’d been rooting for him the whole season and thought he was getting the winners edit. When he lost, I was shook. 2. Matt’s second time from Redemption Island-It felt really cruel to vote him out as soon as he came back and it’s when the season changed into Rob and his cult marching toward victory. 3. Brandon from Caramoan-Seeing how much everyone on that tribe was hurting was painful to watch. And Philip Shepherd is an obnoxious character who I just cannot stand. If I was stranded on an island with him, I’d probably snap too. 4. Trish from Cagayan-She played Tony’s game for him. She trusted him. And he slit her throat. I just felt really bad for her. 5. Rob from Amazon-He played such a great game and it felt really unfair that he got booted by someone who was crying and. Asking people to vote her out just a few episodes earlier.
To add insult to injury, the next vote out on 39 was Jamal, who was one of the few people to stand up for Kellee and say that what happened to her was not right
Truly Unbelievable crazy how no “old school” players are left in the game. Sandra, Amber, Ethan, rob, yul, parvati, and danni all voted out while we have people like Adam and Sophie still in the game 🙄
Cydney is underrated and one of my favorite players. She is overshadowed by Aubrey. Although I also love Aubrey, Cydney is one of my all time favorites. Hope she returns.
Spencer's elimination from Cagayan hit me hard. Because as a super fan of the game and huge nerd I saw a lot of myself in Spencer and saw him overcome being on the horrendous Brains tribe and saw him get to the finale and then to see him lose made me pretty emotional.
yes!! i was in high school at the time and was absolutely in love with him and thought he was really gonna get the win. i was so upset at school the next day and complained to all my friends about it even though they didn't watch the show
I'm only two years younger than Spencer and I absolutely loved seeing him play because I saw myself in him so much, so to see him get so close and then fall short was heartbreaking. I always say that if I played Survivor, I'd probably come off as Spencer, lol (I'd probably try to play differently, like either Stephen Fishbach or Aubry Bracco, but it would totally end up coming across as Spencer). 😊
As sad as it would be to miss out on spending time with your loved one more than the challenge, that's actually the most strategic thing. Everybody assumes the loved ones reward crew formed a tight bond because of their loved ones and being chosen to go. Not going prevents a target on your back.
Love him or hate him, Rick Deven's game from Edge of Extinction was phenomenal. He played idols, he carried relationships, he fought against the odds, and he barely came short to the fire making competition. I was in tears when he was voted out
Arrow Splash I was in tears too. I liked him at the beginning of the game, but I hardcore rooted for him after he came back and I still complain about that finale. He's one of my favorite new school players for sure
Yau-Man's vote out was harsh for me as well, but I definitely remembered Tina's vote out from Panama all this time later, the "talking to charlie" scene always stuck in my mind.
i haven’t watched yet, but for me the most heartbreaking is brenda. she sacrificed spending time with her loved ones for the rest of the tribe, and then the next vote she’s voted out
I feel so weird for getting this way but Ethan is the most emotional I have ever felt about a Survivor. When he struggled to get the coin on EoE, he fainted and it took him so long, then when everyone surrounded him and helped him get through it, I actually cried. I didn't cry but that clip you showed was so awesome, shows how brilliant Parvatis social game is how she can find even in the darkest moments some personal complement that sounds authentic and comforted Ethan, it was great TV.
I approve of your number 2 selection, because screw recency bias, Ethan being voted out after he'd gone through so much before getting his third chance at the game was a tearjerker for sure
It's so great seeing Parvati's growth. Seeing her be Ethan's rock at the end there shows how much she's grown since her early days. She never would have done that.
Peridiam nah man, I was so sad for Malcolm. I was so excited for him, and he was so happy the whole time and having so much fun, and when the first Malcolm vote came up, that was a whole new level of hurt on his face
To make your Number 1 pick more tragic, I heard from a friend who went to the IOTI reunion that Tina was in the audience, stood up, and asked Jeff for a second chance during the break. Jeff basically ignored her and said "Hey, there's Timber Tina. If you ever want to learn axe throwing, hit her up!"
Peridiam, just an idea for videos, maybe when the show is airing on tv, maybe put who you predict to go home at the end of each video? could be a fun idea idk
My Most Heart Breaking Vote out is Rudy in All Stars, man that moment when Rudy make the alliance with Ruppert and everyone else vote him out while the music sounds, for me it’s hard to watch.
I agree 100% about Ethan being voted out in S40. I was routing from him to win, or even make it further and it was really devastating when he got voted out.
Daniel I live in the Philly area and the philly based survivors have hosted watch parties for Wendell during Ghost Island and now this season. Russell is usually there along with Brice, Gervase, and others. But Russell remembered my friends and I and always looks out for us!
I don't comment on stuff often but I just wanted to say you do an outstanding job. Thank you for making this content, I love watching and relating to your strategic opinions. I look forward to your videos, and I'm really glad there are more of us 'younger' folk obsessing over Survivor. PS. I'd LOVE to see the charts you've made from watching all of the seasons and collecting your data lmao
Ethan’s vote off was so heartbreaking you can tell how good of a person he is and seeing him come back after so many seasons to get voted of so quickly
it’s sad to see all the OGs go but it seems like that it’s out with the old and in with the new. people like rob parv and sandra won’t play again and this is going to make our new legends like tony wendell and michelle
Luke from Australian Survivor Champs Vs Contenders 2. The whole episode is a love letter to Luke and the amazing content he gave us and the show. People were so driven and moved by him and his story that they raised the prize money for him in a campaign. He’s one of the best players to never win and both times he was voted out I was heartbroken.
I felt the same way about Ethan’s vote off, it was so heartbreaking. To see him saying how much he wanted to get healthy to be able to play survivor again, and then to go out episode 3 hurt so bad
i was at the reunion show for island of the idols and tina was in the audience. she got jeff’s attention and asked him for a second chance. jeff just dismissed her and seemed not interested at all. i didn’t think much of it bc i didn’t remember her but i know who she was now lol
Spoilers for WaW : I almost shed tears during Sarah’s goodbye during the finale. It was such a sweet, genuine moment, and I absolutely loved her’s and Tony’s alliance the entire season.
My most heartbreaking wasn’t a vote off it was Pat being medevacced. Still my favorite player of all time. Loved him preseason and in episode 1. I hope they have a Philippines 2 and bring him back
If anyone deserves a second chance its Pat. He seemed like a really strong player who could make a deep run and to have it end like that is just heartbreaking.
I was crying really hard when Tina was talking about losing her son. Tina deserves a second chance to play. She and Cirie probably could have worked well together
Rick Devens. Literally played the game harder than anyone I've ever seen just to lose to the Edge of Extinction twist (Chris). The way he played was so exciting to watch. And his speech before he left made me cry. Rick was the best.
She really killed that season. I remember wondering why she was brought back when she was such an early boot in her original season BvsW (not really her fault to be fair), then I saw her in Second Chance and I was like WOW. Second Chance is one of my favorite seasons.
Totally agree with your top choice. That season aired when I was just a kid, so it didn't register with me as much back then. But I recently rewatched Panama and damn, I had to pause after that episode because I just felt so sad. What an amazing woman Tina is. Really gives me hope to get through tough times in my life.
Ethan getting voted out in a (brilliant) move of can't-get-the-king/queen-get-their-knight was heartbreaking. There is no doubt in my mind he will stay on the edge all the way through (as in he won't raise the white flag), but I hope he makes it back. He would be a HUGE target but I also think he would win if he were to make final 3. Malcolm at the final 4. Joe, any season, I'm always sad when he leaves (but especially when he lost immunity because he literally fell out of the challenge). YUUUUUUUUL. Cirie at the no-vote-automatic-elimination tribal. Rupert in Pearl Islands. Not a vote out but Caleb when he was medevac'ed. Just about every vote from the original Blood vs Water. YAO MAN.
@@Chimcharlover13 it was a brilliant move! They kept the shields and eventually the shields got voted out. If they kept Ethan, I'm pretty sure he would still be in the game because he wasn't a target. He would've won this season if they let him go far. I love Ethan, but Michele and Jeremy made a great move.
@@Chimcharlover13 You do if you have plans to use the two bigger targets as shields, so you take out their closest ally and ensure that their options reduce down to where they have no other alternative but to side with you
@Tailslover13 While I can understand your reasoning, I clearly disagree and don't intend on changing my opinion. I actually think Adam has made more mistakes (namely voting out Rob, as that put him in considerable danger and if they had lost any tribe immunity challenge after that he most certainly would be going home). I think Tony has done a great job recovering. Personally, I am still cheering for Ethan, Yul, Sophie, Denise, Tyson, and surprisingly Ben. I have yet to see the latest episode though, so maybe all my favs are gone 😂
@@lovefromshirley I agree...Adam got incredibly lucky that Sophie was so good at the puzzle/maze parts of the challenges, because he'd have been chilling on Edge next had that been the case. And another mistake for Adam...the way he acted when he thought either Sarah or Ben had the idol...not good play at all
Hi Peridiam, I had an idea for a video that I thought you might be interested in considering "Top # innovative survival moments in Survivor" Watching season 3 for the first time I was impressed how they got fire by taking the lens out of the telescope they were given and made fire that way and just started to wonder how many genius ideas were made in the shows history to achieve fire, find food, use obscure survival skills or innovative shelters and camp life Also maybe consider the opposite. The "worst" of them. I'm thinking Ruperts shelter right away. Maybe you've made a video exploring this concept? I'm unsure
Tina runs a log show up in Maine! My family and I went to see it and it was really fun. Also she is a huge Green Bay packers like me so that was cool. Super nice lady
I would now add Jesse Lopez to this list. Of course, there's no doubt he'll be back and have another chance. But he was SO crushed at his firemaking failure, and he wanted it SO bad, I almost cried with him.
Oh man I forgot all about how sad Cydney’s elimination was. I wanted both her and Aubry to win and then neither of them won. And I still like Michele too! It was such an amazing final 3 and I wish all of them could have won.
What a reminder! I had forgotten I had seen Timber Tina’s show in Maine probably 10 years ago! It was a fabulous show, I have some wood signed by her somewhere in my basement
Hey man I doubt you’ll see this but I think you should watching the Australian Survivor and make some videos on it. In season 1 which was filmed in 2019 we had some real challenge beasts and I figured you’d enjoy it
Low key Terry from Panama was heartbreaking for me. Dude dominated the game and won literally every immunity but 1 and to see him get so close but then lose at the end was tough
Totally agree. On top of the fact that he had made a pact and literally saved Danielle's life days prior. And instead due to her giving Aras a head nod (which in the edit wasn't shown as much more of a quick look and bob, and to me at the time and rewatching after meant nothing) she keeps Aras. She was going to lose either way if you ask me, and I think she might have fared better against Terry. She would have had her whole tribe there for their votes you just had to remind them what you did and how you did it, instead, she fights Aras for the same easy (they were my tribe) votes and loses out.
@@fkollman She wasn't gonna fare better against Terry than Aras...she knew that, Terry knew that, Aras knew that, heck, everyone except apparently you knew that. Terry was obviously getting Austin and Sally's votes because La Mina, and judging by Shane's jury question, he was equally pissed at Aras and Danielle for turning on him, so if Terry had been an option for him to vote, he would've done so, and if you can do the math, with 3 votes already going Terry's way on a 7 person jury, that means he only needs to convince one of Courtney/Bruce/Aras/Cirie to vote him, and he wins
Tina is a phenomenal woman. Her strength is only matched by her softness, she has a heart as big as the ocean. We should all be such graceful survivors.
I think Russell Swan should come back for another season. He is a legend that no one think about. He never gave up no matter how hard everything hit him.
Love your videos. Makes the Survivor experience even better :) I would really like if you continue to talk about the other player archetypes, or which players didn't fit their archetype.
It’s May just be recency bias, but I am saying Yul from last week. I have never been more genuinely upset after a survivor episode. Yul is my favorite player of all time and the GOAT in my opinion. I was so excited to see him play again and for it to be cut this short right before the merge where I feel as if he would have had phenomenal placement in the game, it hurt so bad.
I didn’t feel like Parvati’s vote out was heartbreaking? I was so so so sad, for sure, but I feel like it’s such a good message to her daughter that it’s OKAY to lose and not win. Parvati is a whole damn legend, and her getting voted out shows that failing is inevitable but what matters is what happens afterwards and how you bounce back. I found her vote out kind of inspiring in a sense 😂. The Phoenix will rise again. 💗
Peridiam I want a video of survivors that have fallen outside the game. Cast members that have: Ended up behind bars Struggled with addiction Nude photo shoots Etc Also I would love if you increased your video output to 2 a week. Keep up the good work legend.
Rudy in S8. At 72 he did a fine job out there. At 75 it was so obvious he didn’t belong. Yet he had no quit in him. He was there to play and the thought of needing to be mercy-killed was foreign to him. Rupert just couldn’t bring himself to do it, and the other three were so clearly broken up about it. It was like watching watching a horse break a leg but still want to run the race. Add to that the fact that Rudymania had taken the nation by storm during S1 and I don’t think _anyone_ contributed more to the show’s success. Everyone who watched in 2000 was watching at least in part for him. That would have been a recent memory in ‘03, and everyone at that tribal except Jenna must have thought of him as a rockstar when they applied.
Ozzy from South Pacific. Even tho he was cocky and arrogant, he had gone thru so much during the season and easily played the best physical game in one season ever. He was easily a lock to win and even the audience was heartbroken during the finale. Even Yau-Mans from Fiji is up there.
I feel bad for Brenda. She was in an impossible situation. She gave away the loved one reward which was too big of a hero move so late in the game. If she made it to final, that would be a very strong persuasion, for an all but guaranteed 4 jury votes. If she kept it, she would have made too many enemies, again so late in the game.
Aw man I will NEVER forget how heart broken I was seeing James goin in HvV,also I was PISSED about seeing Yul go, I had Yul or Danni to win,was PUMPED to see Parv out also Ethans vote out was also really upsetting *sniff
For me the ones that stand out as heartbreaking as in they really bummed me out when they happened Borneo - Greg, Colleen Australia - Deb, Kimmi Africa - Teresa, Clarence Marquesas - Gina Thailand - Tanya, Shii Ann Amazon - Christy PI - Tijuana, Darrah AS - Cesternino, Shii Ann, Ethan, Rich Vanuatu - Julie, Ami Palau - Angie, Wanda Guatemala - Brooke, Amy, Brandon, Margaret Panama - Tina, Sally CI - Cao Boi, Flicka Fiji - Michelle, Yau-Man China - Not a perfect boot order but it would've sucked losing almost anyone at any point except Denise. Micronesia - Yau-Man, Ami Gabon - Jacquie Tocantins - Brendan, Candace Samoa - Marisa, Betsy HVV - Courtney, Candice Nicaragua - Kelly B, Tyrone, Jill, Brenda RI - Sarita Sopa - Elyse, Stacey, Edna, Semhar Owo - Bill Phillipines - Dawson, RC Caramoan - Brenda, Malcolm, Julia lol BVV - Candice, J. Cody Cagayan - Brice, Morgan, Tasha San Juan - Reed, Jeremy, Kelley Worlds Apart - Hali, So, Vince, Lindsey, Shirin Cambodia - Woo, Shirin, PG KR - Liz, Jenn, Alecia, Nick MVGX - Mari, Michaela Game Changers - Tony, Hali, Sandra, Malcolm HHH - Katrina, Simone, Patrick, Roark, Ali, Desi, Joe, Lauren Ghost Island - James, Desiree, Bradley, Morgan, Steph DVG - Christian, Gabby, Elizabeth, Davie Edge - Wendy, David, Kelley, Lauren, Wardog IOTI - Karishma, Jack, Molly, Chelsea, Jamal, Janet, Vince WOTW - Natalie, Danni, Ethan, Parvati, Sandra, Yul
I was devastated when Ethan got voted out. I felt so bad, and then to see Parvati saying "Sorry, E" - that got me. Yeah that ron swanson clip is accurate. (salt in the wound is almost all my other favorites getting voted out back-to-back this season) Personally, the most heartbreaking vote-out is Devin in hvhvh. All of the new fire challenge losses have been heartbreaking, which is why I'm not a fan of that twist, but the first one was the hardest.
One other one that I found a bit heartbreaking (because of what happened, not who it happened to), was Scott from Kaoh Rong. You can see the moment when all of his confidence leaves his body as Tai holds on to the other half of the Super Idol, leaving him to die. It would suck to have a safety plan with an ally, just for them to not help you when you need it the most.
There are 2 vote offs this season that Im really really sad about: Amber and Danni. Amber never stood a chance to prove she’s a worthy winner because of Rob’s shadow. Danni was the coolest cucumber on Guatemala. She was actually the calmest Female Winner for me. Because of Guatemala I’m enjoying Survivor right now. She was the underdog story I didnt know I needed as inspiration in my life. That’s why Im sad. Devastated actually.
Even though they didn't get voted out, I think the schoolyard pick in Palau was heartbreaking. They made it all the way through casting only to not get picked to be on a tribe.
Gotta agree with you there.
Agreed
Matthew Rao
Yeah that twist was bullshit
Wanda for second chances
Completely agree! I still think it was the meanest thing Production ever did.
Janet from S39 - it was heartbreaking for many reasons. First of all she was such a hero character and a big inspiration. Then her confessionals - she thought she was safe because of the idol and didn't see the idol nullifier coming. She also said how she thinks she could actually make it to the end and win. And as a viewer you could tell from a far that she would be taken out. And in her final words she was also so devastated "I feel like a fool for allowing myself to think that I could actually win".
season 39 was a disaster. but I really liked janet, and the season was not very good without her tbh.
@@elenaistoocool4928 Right, that's another reason why it was sad to see her go - she was one of the saving graces of the season.
Any winner that was so pushed like that made a lame season. Tommys a lame winner and nobody could even get close to him.
Cool Guy Casey Missy did until she made her fatal mistake. But she played a strong game up until that.
@@coolguyc4sey Who is Tommy? Is crazy how little positive things I remember of that final 3. Even though Janet was not a super exciting option to be the winner she was the most exciting of the final 6. Probably the first four merge boots took out the 4 best players, but Janet was the decent winner after a horrible messy season
It’s simple:
1. I wait for Wednesday
2. I see the Peridiam video
3. I click
4. Enjoy the episode
5. Repeat
Evan Lorenz i do this everyday
Same here.
From Wednesday to Wednesday I watch videos of challenges and immunities and tribal councils in past seasons:)
Same!!!
Evan Lorenz I burped on your comment since you tried brown nosing
Yau-man’s vote out was definitely one the most heart breaking moments for me.
Finster's Light facts
Finster's Light I was looking for this comment, I totally agree
Most definitely.
I agree
@Anna what season is it
My top 5
1. Cirie Fields - Survivor: Game Changers
2. Cirie Fields - Survivor: Micronesia
3. Cirie Fields - Survivor: Panama
4. Cirie Fields - Survivor: Heroes Vs. Villians
5. Sandra Diaz-Twine - Survivor: Game Changers
This is the correct answer
ICool163 Micronesia is still the saddest of Cirie boots for me
ICool163 I agree, besides your 4 and 5. The writing was just on the wall for those legends to go home, the producers didn’t screw them out of anything and they were just on the wrong side of the numbers in positions where they weren’t attractive to keep
you had me until #5
Not to mention she searched for Dawns teeth so she wouldn’t quit.
It’s why everyone lost respect for dawn after that moment
Dawn is one of my least fav players of all time
Caleb Choi i like Dawn in South Pacific but hated her in Caramoan
Alex Milne dawn was annoying beyond belief too 😂
Dawn was a bit of a mess emotionally but made a bold game move, wasn't personal, but was a really bad lead up to take out Brenda. I felt bad for her but that went away when she was straight up vicious to Dawn at final tribal. That was cold.
I always thought about how sad Tina's elimination was, you can really see how her grief gets lost in translation in the episode. Heart wrenching start to what becomes one of the kookiest seasons ever
Luke Toki’s elimination in Australian Survivor Champions VS Contenders was the saddest thing ever
Especially because of what she was going through in her personal life, because I can't even begin to imagine the pain of being out on an island surrounded by strangers with nothing to do for 3 days while you've recently had to bury your son
I still remember Brenda's last words from that tribal: "I was honest with you guys. I was genuine with you guys. It hurts." all between restrained sobs. It was so sad to see.
Anytime Cirie gets voted out.
Kevinn lol 😂
Facts.
Micro takes the cake. I love Parv but god that was brutal
Cirie is a worthless player and never should have gotten as far as she ever did
Especially the most recent with there was no vote cast against her but everyone else had an immunity necklace, idol, or advantage.
winners at war literally has the most depressing vote outs.
lol. sure. for some.
i wish nat won
Ben
I knew the season was gonna be terrible when they voted Nat off first
@@jarr9744 I also wanted her to win but I am not mad Tony won, Sarah made it easy for Tony in the fire challenge. It was very clear for keen people.
1. Kellee from Island of Idols-The gaslighting that occurred about sexual harassment and the fact that she had an idol in her pocket when she was voted out made this one really sting.
3. Malcolm from Philippines-I’d been rooting for him the whole season and thought he was getting the winners edit. When he lost, I was shook.
2. Matt’s second time from Redemption Island-It felt really cruel to vote him out as soon as he came back and it’s when the season changed into Rob and his cult marching toward victory.
3. Brandon from Caramoan-Seeing how much everyone on that tribe was hurting was painful to watch. And Philip Shepherd is an obnoxious character who I just cannot stand. If I was stranded on an island with him, I’d probably snap too.
4. Trish from Cagayan-She played Tony’s game for him. She trusted him. And he slit her throat. I just felt really bad for her.
5. Rob from Amazon-He played such a great game and it felt really unfair that he got booted by someone who was crying and. Asking people to vote her out just a few episodes earlier.
Elijah Culper Kellee actually had 2 idols
IamAnoob
Yep. And she used one to save Dean, who stabbed her in the back the very next episode. 💔
i hate malcolm. he’s such a jerk
Elena Hammonds
Who hurt you?
To add insult to injury, the next vote out on 39 was Jamal, who was one of the few people to stand up for Kellee and say that what happened to her was not right
The whole Winners at War season is heartbreaking vote outs... they need to make a tribe out of those at the Edge
Truly Unbelievable crazy how no “old school” players are left in the game. Sandra, Amber, Ethan, rob, yul, parvati, and danni all voted out while we have people like Adam and Sophie still in the game 🙄
Truly Unbelievable They really do need to pull a Pearl Islands and do the Outcasts twist again.
KELLEE COME BACK !!!!
Truly Unbelievable let’s just hope Tyson stays in as long as possible, and then rob comes back in the second comeback challenge
@Kermit The Frog me too
Cydney is underrated and one of my favorite players. She is overshadowed by Aubrey. Although I also love Aubrey, Cydney is one of my all time favorites. Hope she returns.
Spencer's elimination from Cagayan hit me hard. Because as a super fan of the game and huge nerd I saw a lot of myself in Spencer and saw him overcome being on the horrendous Brains tribe and saw him get to the finale and then to see him lose made me pretty emotional.
yes!! i was in high school at the time and was absolutely in love with him and thought he was really gonna get the win. i was so upset at school the next day and complained to all my friends about it even though they didn't watch the show
He was the underdog that whole season!!
I'm only two years younger than Spencer and I absolutely loved seeing him play because I saw myself in him so much, so to see him get so close and then fall short was heartbreaking.
I always say that if I played Survivor, I'd probably come off as Spencer, lol (I'd probably try to play differently, like either Stephen Fishbach or Aubry Bracco, but it would totally end up coming across as Spencer). 😊
The ultimate Charlie Brown
The lesson we learnt from Brenda: don't win the family reunion reward.
And don't give up Immunity for anything or anyone
As sad as it would be to miss out on spending time with your loved one more than the challenge, that's actually the most strategic thing. Everybody assumes the loved ones reward crew formed a tight bond because of their loved ones and being chosen to go. Not going prevents a target on your back.
The scene with Ethan & Parv... so sad & sweet. Last episode was just an all-around heartbreaker!
That Brenda vote off tho, damn they got no chill
The most heartbreaking vote outs are almost always at the final 4
Except Cirie going home by default 😥
Emma B she did go out once at final 4 tho 🙄🙄
Love him or hate him, Rick Deven's game from Edge of Extinction was phenomenal. He played idols, he carried relationships, he fought against the odds, and he barely came short to the fire making competition. I was in tears when he was voted out
Arrow Splash I was in tears too. I liked him at the beginning of the game, but I hardcore rooted for him after he came back and I still complain about that finale. He's one of my favorite new school players for sure
Yau-Man's vote out was harsh for me as well, but I definitely remembered Tina's vote out from Panama all this time later, the "talking to charlie" scene always stuck in my mind.
i haven’t watched yet, but for me the most heartbreaking is brenda. she sacrificed spending time with her loved ones for the rest of the tribe, and then the next vote she’s voted out
Every moment with Ethan makes me cry this season lol
I feel so weird for getting this way but Ethan is the most emotional I have ever felt about a Survivor. When he struggled to get the coin on EoE, he fainted and it took him so long, then when everyone surrounded him and helped him get through it, I actually cried. I didn't cry but that clip you showed was so awesome, shows how brilliant Parvatis social game is how she can find even in the darkest moments some personal complement that sounds authentic and comforted Ethan, it was great TV.
I feel the exact same way about Ethan. He's my absolute favorite winner.
Losing Parvati this early with not enough airtime was painful af
Agree
I approve of your number 2 selection, because screw recency bias, Ethan being voted out after he'd gone through so much before getting his third chance at the game was a tearjerker for sure
Jessica from MvGX. My heart actually hurt when it happened
She's mine as well. I found her the best member of the cast then and now and for her to be taken out by simple bad luck brought me to tears.
*Dude it sucks to rocked out*
I love rain Like chocalate Agreed
But she had a chance to control her fate and she decided to risk her safety to save Hannah just to make sure that her alliance had the numbers
Ami getting voted out in Micronesia was one of the saddest, she cried and I felt it was really sincere.
It's so great seeing Parvati's growth. Seeing her be Ethan's rock at the end there shows how much she's grown since her early days. She never would have done that.
Spencer Cagyan. I was 8 when 28 was airing and I was rooting for him so so much and when he was voted out, damn I was in tears😂
Myus_0 0 Omg! I was like 9 and routing for spencer!
1. Cirie
2. Cirie
3. Cirie
4. Cirie
5. Next time Cirie plays😭
wym cirie's gonna win the legends season :)
@@maxiemusicmovies I honestly don't think so. If i were a player or legend, I'd probably take out Cirie once the merge starts.
:(
Malcolm wasn’t even an honorable mention? I have never seen someone so crushed
Dewy C. That was more frustration at JT.
Peridiam nah man, I was so sad for Malcolm. I was so excited for him, and he was so happy the whole time and having so much fun, and when the first Malcolm vote came up, that was a whole new level of hurt on his face
Ya Malcolm j got screwed. Nothing he could do, despite being in my opinion an all time great triple threat who will prob never get another chance
If Tony gets voted out today, I’m going to wait until the end when they say April Fools
As long as Tyson, Boston Rob, or Ethan come back, I'm alright. 🤷♂️
If you google who wins it says Tyson 🤷♂️
@@davedonle4045 you're a piece of shit and your mom doesn't love you
I want yul to come back! all my favorite players are out now it really sucks.
Dave Donle Thanks for spoiling the series for me man
last time i was this early jt and stephen didn't have a son together yet
To make your Number 1 pick more tragic, I heard from a friend who went to the IOTI reunion that Tina was in the audience, stood up, and asked Jeff for a second chance during the break. Jeff basically ignored her and said "Hey, there's Timber Tina. If you ever want to learn axe throwing, hit her up!"
😮
Peridiam, just an idea for videos, maybe when the show is airing on tv, maybe put who you predict to go home at the end of each video? could be a fun idea idk
I thought I was the only one who even remembered Tina’s vote out
My Most Heart Breaking Vote out is Rudy in All Stars, man that moment when Rudy make the alliance with Ruppert and everyone else vote him out while the music sounds, for me it’s hard to watch.
Especially when Rupert, Ethan, Jerri, and Jenna all stand up and salute him on his way out
I agree 100% about Ethan being voted out in S40. I was routing from him to win, or even make it further and it was really devastating when he got voted out.
I’ve met Russell Swan a few times. He’s legit one of the nicest people ever!!!!!💕
Christina McNamara how?
Daniel I live in the Philly area and the philly based survivors have hosted watch parties for Wendell during Ghost Island and now this season. Russell is usually there along with Brice, Gervase, and others. But Russell remembered my friends and I and always looks out for us!
Ive seen him in Center City a few times...first time i freaked out lol. He was so nice!
Christina McNamara nice!

PS. I'd LOVE to see the charts you've made from watching all of the seasons and collecting your data lmao

Shoutouts to the r/Survivor Yulogy
Yau man in Fiji? The first time I rooted for a player who just missed it...
He’s in the honourable mentions
Ethan’s vote off was so heartbreaking you can tell how good of a person he is and seeing him come back after so many seasons to get voted of so quickly
For me Malcolm from Game Changers because he’s one of my favorite players of all time and he got screwed
it’s sad to see all the OGs go but it seems like that it’s out with the old and in with the new. people like rob parv and sandra won’t play again and this is going to make our new legends like tony wendell and michelle
TTROCKET exactly.
Wendell is a bum get outta here
Whoever wins this season will be the GOAT of this generation of survivor
Wendell is a clown.
Luke from Australian Survivor Champs Vs Contenders 2. The whole episode is a love letter to Luke and the amazing content he gave us and the show. People were so driven and moved by him and his story that they raised the prize money for him in a campaign. He’s one of the best players to never win and both times he was voted out I was heartbroken.
Whenever I think of heartbreaking vote outs I always always think of Ami from Micronesia honestly one of the saddest vote outs I always remember
"See number 1" GIVE TINA SCHEER A SECOND CHANCE !!!!
I felt the same way about Ethan’s vote off, it was so heartbreaking. To see him saying how much he wanted to get healthy to be able to play survivor again, and then to go out episode 3 hurt so bad
Ok, the most times I’ve cried about a vote out is in IotI (what?, I know!) they were:
1. Kellee
2. Janet
3. Lauren
i was at the reunion show for island of the idols and tina was in the audience. she got jeff’s attention and asked him for a second chance. jeff just dismissed her and seemed not interested at all. i didn’t think much of it bc i didn’t remember her but i know who she was now lol
I did enjoy Rob, Parvati, Sandra getting voted out one by one.. but Yul's broke my heart.. Seeing the last legend OG fall
Why did you enjoy that...
Spoilers for WaW :
I almost shed tears during Sarah’s goodbye during the finale. It was such a sweet, genuine moment, and I absolutely loved her’s and Tony’s alliance the entire season.
When you were talking about the Russell vote out, at first I thought the heartbreaking vote out was going to be Zane.
My most heartbreaking wasn’t a vote off it was Pat being medevacced. Still my favorite player of all time. Loved him preseason and in episode 1. I hope they have a Philippines 2 and bring him back
If anyone deserves a second chance its Pat. He seemed like a really strong player who could make a deep run and to have it end like that is just heartbreaking.
It made me cry. So sad.
I was crying really hard when Tina was talking about losing her son. Tina deserves a second chance to play. She and Cirie probably could have worked well together
I'm glad Brenda's got mentioned. She was my favorite player that season, it GUTTED me when she left.
Rick Devens. Literally played the game harder than anyone I've ever seen just to lose to the Edge of Extinction twist (Chris). The way he played was so exciting to watch. And his speech before he left made me cry. Rick was the best.
for me it will always be wentworth’s elimination in second chance. she was so close to the final 3 and would’ve won!!
She really killed that season. I remember wondering why she was brought back when she was such an early boot in her original season BvsW (not really her fault to be fair), then I saw her in Second Chance and I was like WOW. Second Chance is one of my favorite seasons.
Also Peridiam dats the perfect GIF with the reaction to Ethan gettin voted out cause dats EXACTLY how I felt
I never expected to cry during a Top 5 Survivor youTube video but damn that moment with Tina on the beach hit differently.
The boots that hurt the most for me: 40-Yul, Parv, Nat, Amber, Danni. 39-Janet, Elaine, Jamal, Kellee. 38-Aubry, Victoria. 37-Allison, Davie, Christian, Lyrsa. 36-Stephanie, Michael, Kellyn. 35-Ali, Mike, Desi, Jessica. 34- Cirie, Malcolm. 33-David, Jessica. 32-Cydney, Darnell. 31-Wentworth, Kimmi. 30-Joe, Kelly, Nina. 29-Keith, Jeremy, Wentworth. 28-Trish, Alexis. 27-Ciera, Tina, Rachel, Katie, Kat.26-Brenda, thats literally it. 25-Malcolm, Penner. 24-Bill. 23-Dawn, Whitney, Ozzy. 22-David. 21-Kelly B, Jane, Jill. 20-Cirie, Stephanie, Courtney, Danielle, Colby. I got too tired to finish
Totally agree with your top choice. That season aired when I was just a kid, so it didn't register with me as much back then. But I recently rewatched Panama and damn, I had to pause after that episode because I just felt so sad. What an amazing woman Tina is. Really gives me hope to get through tough times in my life.
Ethan getting voted out in a (brilliant) move of can't-get-the-king/queen-get-their-knight was heartbreaking. There is no doubt in my mind he will stay on the edge all the way through (as in he won't raise the white flag), but I hope he makes it back. He would be a HUGE target but I also think he would win if he were to make final 3.
Malcolm at the final 4. Joe, any season, I'm always sad when he leaves (but especially when he lost immunity because he literally fell out of the challenge). YUUUUUUUUL. Cirie at the no-vote-automatic-elimination tribal. Rupert in Pearl Islands. Not a vote out but Caleb when he was medevac'ed. Just about every vote from the original Blood vs Water. YAO MAN.
@@Chimcharlover13 it was a brilliant move! They kept the shields and eventually the shields got voted out. If they kept Ethan, I'm pretty sure he would still be in the game because he wasn't a target. He would've won this season if they let him go far. I love Ethan, but Michele and Jeremy made a great move.
Remember that time joes survived a tribal without the necklace
@@Chimcharlover13 You do if you have plans to use the two bigger targets as shields, so you take out their closest ally and ensure that their options reduce down to where they have no other alternative but to side with you
@Tailslover13 While I can understand your reasoning, I clearly disagree and don't intend on changing my opinion. I actually think Adam has made more mistakes (namely voting out Rob, as that put him in considerable danger and if they had lost any tribe immunity challenge after that he most certainly would be going home). I think Tony has done a great job recovering. Personally, I am still cheering for Ethan, Yul, Sophie, Denise, Tyson, and surprisingly Ben. I have yet to see the latest episode though, so maybe all my favs are gone 😂
@@lovefromshirley I agree...Adam got incredibly lucky that Sophie was so good at the puzzle/maze parts of the challenges, because he'd have been chilling on Edge next had that been the case. And another mistake for Adam...the way he acted when he thought either Sarah or Ben had the idol...not good play at all
Hi Peridiam, I had an idea for a video that I thought you might be interested in considering
"Top # innovative survival moments in Survivor"
Watching season 3 for the first time I was impressed how they got fire by taking the lens out of the telescope they were given and made fire that way and just started to wonder how many genius ideas were made in the shows history to achieve fire, find food, use obscure survival skills or innovative shelters and camp life
Also maybe consider the opposite. The "worst" of them. I'm thinking Ruperts shelter right away.
Maybe you've made a video exploring this concept? I'm unsure
Tina runs a log show up in Maine! My family and I went to see it and it was really fun. Also she is a huge Green Bay packers like me so that was cool. Super nice lady
OMG I thought I was the only one sooooooo sad seeing Russel Swan voted out in Philipinnes but I'm glad I'm actually not :O Hope he's back some day !
I would now add Jesse Lopez to this list. Of course, there's no doubt he'll be back and have another chance. But he was SO crushed at his firemaking failure, and he wanted it SO bad, I almost cried with him.
Oh man I forgot all about how sad Cydney’s elimination was. I wanted both her and Aubry to win and then neither of them won. And I still like Michele too! It was such an amazing final 3 and I wish all of them could have won.
What a reminder! I had forgotten I had seen Timber Tina’s show in Maine probably 10 years ago! It was a fabulous show, I have some wood signed by her somewhere in my basement
Hey man I doubt you’ll see this but I think you should watching the Australian Survivor and make some videos on it. In season 1 which was filmed in 2019 we had some real challenge beasts and I figured you’d enjoy it
Low key Terry from Panama was heartbreaking for me. Dude dominated the game and won literally every immunity but 1 and to see him get so close but then lose at the end was tough
Totally agree. On top of the fact that he had made a pact and literally saved Danielle's life days prior. And instead due to her giving Aras a head nod (which in the edit wasn't shown as much more of a quick look and bob, and to me at the time and rewatching after meant nothing) she keeps Aras. She was going to lose either way if you ask me, and I think she might have fared better against Terry. She would have had her whole tribe there for their votes you just had to remind them what you did and how you did it, instead, she fights Aras for the same easy (they were my tribe) votes and loses out.
@@fkollman She wasn't gonna fare better against Terry than Aras...she knew that, Terry knew that, Aras knew that, heck, everyone except apparently you knew that. Terry was obviously getting Austin and Sally's votes because La Mina, and judging by Shane's jury question, he was equally pissed at Aras and Danielle for turning on him, so if Terry had been an option for him to vote, he would've done so, and if you can do the math, with 3 votes already going Terry's way on a 7 person jury, that means he only needs to convince one of Courtney/Bruce/Aras/Cirie to vote him, and he wins
Tina is a phenomenal woman. Her strength is only matched by her softness, she has a heart as big as the ocean. We should all be such graceful survivors.
I think Russell Swan should come back for another season. He is a legend that no one think about. He never gave up no matter how hard everything hit him.
Eh. I suppose but I never found him interesting
I thought this was gonna be an April Fool's Day video and I was not prepared to get sad.
I've never cried over a season of survivor like I have cried over s40 man. this shit is rough.
Love your videos. Makes the Survivor experience even better :)
I would really like if you continue to talk about the other player archetypes, or which players didn't fit their archetype.
I actually had an inkling Timber Tina was your saddest because as much as I’m happy for Cirie I was sad given Tina’s recent loss from Charlie
Totally agree with you Peridiam, Tina in S12 was absolutely hearthbreaking :(
It’s May just be recency bias, but I am saying Yul from last week. I have never been more genuinely upset after a survivor episode. Yul is my favorite player of all time and the GOAT in my opinion. I was so excited to see him play again and for it to be cut this short right before the merge where I feel as if he would have had phenomenal placement in the game, it hurt so bad.
Especially since Wendell lost the immunity challenge by seconds
I didn’t feel like Parvati’s vote out was heartbreaking? I was so so so sad, for sure, but I feel like it’s such a good message to her daughter that it’s OKAY to lose and not win. Parvati is a whole damn legend, and her getting voted out shows that failing is inevitable but what matters is what happens afterwards and how you bounce back. I found her vote out kind of inspiring in a sense 😂. The Phoenix will rise again. 💗
When Carter got voted out. Kid just wanted to play. He looked heartbroken.

This is such a underrated channel.
1. Ozzy Lusth (S16 Micronesia - 9th place)
2. Ozzy Lusth (S23 South Pacific - 4th place)
3. Ozzy Lusth (S34 Game Changers - 12th)
4. Malcolm (S34 Game Changers - 17th)
5. Rupert (S20 Heroes vs Villains - 6th)
i actually liked the way brenda treated dawn at the end
Peridiam I want a video of survivors that have fallen outside the game.
Cast members that have:
Ended up behind bars
Struggled with addiction
Nude photo shoots
Etc
Also I would love if you increased your video output to 2 a week.
Keep up the good work legend.
I was in Maine once and I saw an add for Tina's show and I was like that's crazy I know who that is
Rudy in S8. At 72 he did a fine job out there. At 75 it was so obvious he didn’t belong. Yet he had no quit in him. He was there to play and the thought of needing to be mercy-killed was foreign to him. Rupert just couldn’t bring himself to do it, and the other three were so clearly broken up about it. It was like watching watching a horse break a leg but still want to run the race.
Add to that the fact that Rudymania had taken the nation by storm during S1 and I don’t think _anyone_ contributed more to the show’s success. Everyone who watched in 2000 was watching at least in part for him. That would have been a recent memory in ‘03, and everyone at that tribal except Jenna must have thought of him as a rockstar when they applied.
Taj in Tocantins.
Yes
Ozzy from South Pacific. Even tho he was cocky and arrogant, he had gone thru so much during the season and easily played the best physical game in one season ever. He was easily a lock to win and even the audience was heartbroken during the finale. Even Yau-Mans from Fiji is up there.
I feel bad for Brenda. She was in an impossible situation. She gave away the loved one reward which was too big of a hero move so late in the game. If she made it to final, that would be a very strong persuasion, for an all but guaranteed 4 jury votes. If she kept it, she would have made too many enemies, again so late in the game.
Aw man I will NEVER forget how heart broken I was seeing James goin in HvV,also I was PISSED about seeing Yul go, I had Yul or Danni to win,was PUMPED to see Parv out also Ethans vote out was also really upsetting *sniff

As you can see recent seasons have so many good people going pre-merge :/
I was devastated when Ethan got voted out. I felt so bad, and then to see Parvati saying "Sorry, E" - that got me. Yeah that ron swanson clip is accurate. (salt in the wound is almost all my other favorites getting voted out back-to-back this season) Personally, the most heartbreaking vote-out is Devin in hvhvh. All of the new fire challenge losses have been heartbreaking, which is why I'm not a fan of that twist, but the first one was the hardest.
I’ve seen Tina’s lumberjack show, pretty amazing stuff haha
One other one that I found a bit heartbreaking (because of what happened, not who it happened to), was Scott from Kaoh Rong. You can see the moment when all of his confidence leaves his body as Tai holds on to the other half of the Super Idol, leaving him to die. It would suck to have a safety plan with an ally, just for them to not help you when you need it the most.
There are 2 vote offs this season that Im really really sad about: Amber and Danni. Amber never stood a chance to prove she’s a worthy winner because of Rob’s shadow. Danni was the coolest cucumber on Guatemala. She was actually the calmest Female Winner for me. Because of Guatemala I’m enjoying Survivor right now. She was the underdog story I didnt know I needed as inspiration in my life. That’s why Im sad. Devastated actually.
