Last night on Survivor Darnell Hamilton became the first person voted off Survivor 2016 after his Brawn tribe turned the votes against him over Alecia “Blondie” Holden.
Darnell says he’s obviously sorry to be the first one out, but feels he played a strong game by coming out and playing the angles he needed with strategy and efforts at camp. Darnell felt he’d have better reaction from owning up to his mishap during the immunity challenge where he lost the goggles and put his team behind.
It was a bad move to ditch him over Alecia, says Darnell in his interview, though he admits its an error to assume everyone is thinking the same way he is. He argues though that he’s stronger and helped around camp. “None of it made sense to me,” says Hamilton, though he suspects they may have feared him “and that’s respect to me.”
What do you think of Darnell’s game on Kaoh Rong? It didn’t last long and consisted mostly of him dropping things in the water, but someone does have to go home first. Was Darnell the right choice over Alecia?
