62. Bob Crowley (Gabon)

The oldest person to ever win Survivor, Bob Crowley gets a bad rep because of how bad that final three is. Corinne notes in the video that he had no social game or strategy, but was great at actually SURVIVING. He also dominated in the challenges and when it came down to who should win between him, Susie, and Sugar, Bob was the no-brainer to win.

When looking back at Gabon, it’s a season filled with colorful characters, but the season isn’t anywhere close to the same without Bob. He might not be the most exciting winner ever, but Bob was the right winner for season 17.

61. Jenna Lewis (Borneo, All-Stars)

Jenna Lewis was on the very first season of the show and learned a lot from her original season when she returned to play in All-Stars. As noted in the video, she was the “winner killer” in All-Stars and did not want them to advance far in the game at all.

That worked to her advantage and she also was wise to align with Boston Rob and Amber. Her biggest mistake that season was to not take them out when she had the chance because it forced her into a situation where she had to win the final immunity challenge in order to make it to the end.
