We've said it before and we'll say it
again, those castaways who do not learn from
Survivor history are condemned to repeat it.
And so it was with Jolanda Jones on Survivor 10 Palau.
She was perhaps the single fittest and most
athletically fit female to ever appear on
Survivor, and yet was booted out of the game
at the first Tribal Council. Why?
Alas Survivor history answers the question.
It is simply never a good idea to
step up and take on a leadership role on the
first day. It has been one of the
cardinal rules of the game going back to
Survivor 1 Malaysia ~ just ask B.B.
Andersen ~ and newcomers violate it at their
peril.
Having said that, here at SurvivorFoxes.com we're
rather compassionate all-in-all, and
accordingly were rather sad to see Jolanda
leave so early. Reading her bio,
particularly the tales of tragedy & triumph
she has to tell, left us feeling as though
we'd had the wind knocked out of us.
You think you have troubles?
Read Jolanda's bio sometime ~ and know that
she stands tall as a testament to the
strength of the human spirit.
