TINA
WESSON: The Queen of the Outback |
|
The
whole world watched as 40 year-old Tina Wesson was
crowned Survivor: The Australian Outback. The registered
nurse from Knoxville, Tennessee became only the
second person and the first woman to win the title.
According to her, she hopes that her win will serve
as an inspiration and empower all women across America. |
During
the reunion Tina expressed how thankful she was
to runner-up Colby Donaldson for her win. Having
immunity, Colby would have had a better shot at
winning the million if he had voted Tina off during
the second to the last Tribal Council, and went
head to head with Keith. But still, he chose to
boot Keith off and bring Tina with him to the final
stage of the game. In the end, Tina got more votes
for her and beat Colby by a margin of only one vote. |

The
Last Days at the Australian Outback |
Day
40. The three remaining castaways (Colby,
Keith and Tina) were each given a small piece
of log which they decorated and made their
own. |
Day
41. Jeff Probst met the castaways and
instructed the three to follow a path to remember
the castaways that have gone before them.
Along the path were the torches of the other
thirteen castaways. The path led to a cliff
where the castaways were told to reflect and
where they offered the logs that they have
decorated to the land that "has given
so much to them." The three then proceeded
to Tribal Council where the last Immunity
Challenge will also take place. Colby won
"Fallen Comrades" challenge. To
the surprise of many, Colby voted Keith off. |
Day
42. The final two castaways (Colby and
Tina) faced the jury of seven where they were
asked to open with statements. After which,
the seven jury members were asked to give
statements as well or ask questions to help
them make up their minds for the final vote.
When everyone was finished, the voting began.
The results were revealed during the live
show. Tina won 4-3. |

"You
wanna keep playing this game, you better get a
little more ruthless." - Elisabeth

"There's
nothing fair about this (game), it's about winning."

"As
this game is coming to an end, I think that I
have evolved. That who I started out as in this
game, is not who I've ended up as. I have developed
more into this strategy, and it worked to get
me from 16 to 3." - Tina

"Trusting
people in this game will get you in trouble, and
even quicker it will get you gone. That's because
it's a game, and in a way that's where it parallel's
life but in a way that's where it differs from
life." - Colby
