S24: Troy Robertson
« on: January 18, 2012, 09:14:33 AM »

 
Name (Age): Troy Robertson (50)
Tribe Designation: Manono
Current Residence: Miami, Fla. 
Occupation: Swimsuit Photographer
Personal Claim to Fame: Adopting and raising my family of 12 marmoset monkeys.   
Inspiration in Life: Muhammad Ali. He changed the face of boxing and perhaps sports in general. He is the most recognized athlete on the planet and an outspoken social activist who crossed the racial limits. 
Hobbies: Studying monkeys, swimming, walking in nature with my dogs and working in exotic locations. 
Pet Peeves: People that constantly text while I’m having a conversation with them, bad drivers and women with manly hands. 
3 Words to Describe You: Adventurous, determined and entertaining. 
SURVIVOR Contestant You Are Most Like:  If I were to be totally honest I’d have to say I relate to no one. I’m Troy Robertson, I’m like nobody else!
Reason for Being on SURVIVOR: I need this challenge for myself more than you will ever know! I want to know “how” and “who” I am in a major competition like this. This show is all I have thought about and concentrated on in the past 11 years!!! I need to know dreams come true.
Why You Think You’ll “Survive” SURVIVOR: I’m a true outdoorsman. I can make a fire with two sticks. I am a swimmer and a natural born leader. I have the ability to make people the best they can be. I have great animal instincts and swim like a dolphin. 
Why You Think You Will Be the Sole SURVIVOR: I believe it’s my destiny. Truthfully, because I believe 100% that Survivor was created for me. I’ve been waiting 10 years and nothing will stop me! I have the skills and energy for every single category played on Survivor. There is not a single person on this planet more suited for this adventure!

He seems to be almost the same person as Greg :lol:

Name (Age): Greg Smith (64)
Tribe Designation: Manono
Inspiration in Life:  Tarzan, who is empathic toward nature; kind, brave, noble, “manly,” and Scaramouche (the Raphael Sabatinni version) – a statesman, romantic, adventurer, swordsman and empathic toward the needs to women. 
Hobbies: Art, music, adventure, entomology and primatology.   
Pet Peeves: Inequity and deceit.
SURVIVOR Contestant You Are Most Like: Coach Ben Wade – he seems to be a romantic, adventurer, poetic and creative.
Why You Think You’ll “Survive” SURVIVOR: I’m of the jungle and part of nature.   
Why You Think You Will Be the Sole SURVIVOR: Other than the misfortunes of contretemps, I hope to outwit, outplay, outlast.

Initial reaction: Geez, just looking at his picture I'm reminded of Coach. After hearing a lot about this guy several months ago, he has a lot of hype. Watch his audition video on youtube, it really is the best audition tape EVER. He is a huge fan of the show, and without even watching his video yet, he is probably going to be my pick to win in my Survivor pool.  :hoot:

Edited after watching video & press interview: Yeah I'm still rooting for this guy to make it to the end. It would be nice for his dreams to come true after applying for 11 years. I think he has an interesting personality and if nothing else, will provide entertainment and be a "character" that Survivor producers like so much. He is still one of my final four picks but I'm leaning away from him for the win now. I think he might end up pissing people off.
