Yamil "Yam Yam" Arocho

Yamil, known by the moniker "Yam Yam," is a salon proprietor hailing from Puerto Rico. During his Survivor introductory interview, he acknowledges that the humid conditions in Fiji are taxing, but he believes that he can handle it better than most because of his experience dealing with similar weather in his hometown. He also believes that his background as a salon owner will allow him to connect with people effectively and be an asset in the competition.

Matt Blankinship

Matt, a security software engineer residing in San Francisco, characterizes his profession as somewhat akin to that of a digital bank robber, albeit one who assists his employer in identifying areas for improvement. He believes that his ability to discern and exploit minute details in the behavior of other players could enable him to create chaos in the game.

Brandon Cottom

Brandon, who is currently employed as a security specialist in Newton, Pennsylvania, has had prior experience with high-intensity competitions, having played for the Seattle Seahawks in the NFL. This background makes him a formidable opponent in the physical challenges of the game. However, Brandon also believes that his amiable personality and positive outlook on life will endear him to his fellow competitors once they get to know him.

Kane Fritzler

Kane, a recent law school graduate from Saskatchewan, is prepared to represent Canada in Survivor. Despite acknowledging that his large build and lighthearted personality may remind people of Sasquatch, he is approaching the game with a serious mindset. While the $1 million prize is undoubtedly enticing, Kane's ultimate goal is to claim the coveted title of "Sole Survivor."

Carson Garrett

Carson, the youngest contestant of Survivor season 44, is currently a student at Georgia Tech pursuing a career in rocket science. Although he intends to stay under the radar during the initial stages of the game, he hopes to become a mastermind by the end of it, exerting his influence over critical votes. Interestingly, Carson is younger than the show Survivor itself

Heidi aspires to become the next contestant who inspires others.

Helen Li

Helen, a resident of San Francisco, is not intimidated by the challenges of Survivor despite her petite stature. As a product manager, she considers her profession an exercise in persuasion, which she believes will be beneficial to her gameplay. Taking inspiration from Erica of season 41, Helen plans to use what others may perceive as her weaknesses to her advantage.

Frannie Marin

Frannie, a research coordinator from Cambridge, Mass, joined Survivor to challenge herself and prove that she can handle the game's demands. She believes her strengths lie in her ability to remain calm amidst chaos and her lively personality. With a smile on her face, Frannie is ready to betray her fellow castaways and come out on top.

Danny Massa

Danny, a New York firefighter hailing from the Bronx, is no stranger to living with a group of people for extended periods, having spent time in the firehouse. Although he admits to feeling terrified about participating in Survivor, he believes that some of the best things in his life have come from facing fear head-on. Danny is excited to embrace this new opportunity and see where it takes him.

Claire Rafson 

Claire is a tech investor residing in Brooklyn, N.Y. She is self-assured that she can achieve anything she puts her mind to, and she is excited to take on Survivor and its twists and turns. Additionally, she is eager to bond with her fellow contestants and spend time with Jeff Probst.

Jaime Lynn Ruiz

Jaime Lynn, a marketing associate and yogi hailing from Mesa, Arizona, initially applied the strategies she learned from watching Survivor to achieve success in her corporate job. However, her focus has now shifted to utilizing her corporate experience to excel in the competition on the reality show, while drawing on the guidance of yoga and meditation to further support her efforts.

Sarah Wade

Sarah, a management consultant who previously lived in chilly Chicago, is eagerly anticipating the opportunity to test her limits in Survivor's tropical setting in Fiji. As someone who works in a field predominantly dominated by men, Sarah is confident in her ability to withstand the challenges of the competition. She is excited to see what she is truly capable of accomplishing.

Carolyn Wiger

Despite being a longtime admirer of Survivor, Carolyn required her son's encouragement to persuade her to participate in the show. As a drug counselor based in Minnesota, Carolyn recognizes that her personal triumph over addiction, and having remained sober for 13 years, has endowed her with the resilience to confront any challenge that the competition might present.

Josh Wilder

Josh, a surgeon hailing from Atlanta, has faced and overcome a kidney transplant and cancer. As a result, he views Survivor as simply the next hurdle in his journey and is self-assured that he has what it takes to outlast all of his competitors. Recognizing that his athletic prowess might already make him a target, Josh intends to conceal his profession, which he believes will enable him to leverage his strategic acumen more effectively.

Bruce Perreault

Bruce was the first participant to leave the game due to unfortunate circumstances. During the initial challenge to obtain flint, he sustained a head injury, and although the medical staff cleared him to continue, he began experiencing lightheadedness later that night. Consequently, the medical team determined that he required further evaluation and had to be withdrawn from the competition. Although it is regrettable that Bruce's stint on Survivor was so brief and due to an unlucky incident, the positive outcome is that his test results indicated a satisfactory recovery

Maddy Pomilla 

Maddy was the initial castaway to be eliminated in season 44 of Survivor. Her disagreement with Brandon on how to handle the key for an anonymous package that the entire tribe was searching for led to her ousting. After Brandon disclosed the package's contents and was awarded immunity, Maddy advocated for his removal when the Ratu tribe lost the immunity challenge. The voting process caused apprehension among the tribe, prompting Jaime and Matthew to use their "shot in the dark" advantages, but neither of them received any votes. Brandon utilized his immunity, and although he garnered two votes, they were rendered ineffective. Lauren utilized the Bank Vote advantage that she had earned earlier, and Brandon's sole vote for Maddy was adequate to eliminate her from the game. According to Probst, Jaime was the first participant to select the "safe" alternative.

Survivor 

The Swedish reality television series Expedition Robinson, created by Charlie Parsons and premiering in 1997, is the inspiration for the American version of the international Survivor reality competition television franchise. CBS aired the American series for the first time on May 31, 2000. Along with Mark Burnett and Parsons, the show's original creator, Jeff Probst is also an executive producer and serves as the show's host. A group of strangers is placed in an isolated location by Survivor, where they must provide their own food, fire, and shelter. The contestants compete in challenges that put their physical and mental abilities to the test, such as running and swimming, in exchange for rewards and immunity from elimination. The contestants are voted out of the game in stages until only one remains, earning the title "Sole Survivor" and the grand prize of $1,000,000 (or $2,000,000 in Winners at War) from their fellow contestants.
