I don't know if he will be good for ratings or not..I told my husband I didn't know if I could even watch the show with him on there and I always watch. I just HATE liars. I know everyone lies on this show but not about there lives usually. I think he is tryng to outdo Johnny Fairplay.
try youtube
...
From another board:
I got curious and decided to do a bit of internet search to learn more about this guy...after all, a multi-millionaire oil tycoon must have some sort of history online, right??? Wrong!!!!
.
Found absolutely nothing related to him that's not Survivor themed, tried searching his name in his home town and came up with an address but nothing more. Decided to try searching property values to get an idea of what sort of place he owns. Interesting tidbits came up from the local paper, turns out just about nobody in town knows of him, local records state that he doesn't actually own any property in the county, the "oil company".. aka "Hantz tanking company" uses an address in a mobile home subdivision, likewise the address listed for him is another mobile home. . . . Doesn't at all sound like someone who is worth millions?
I'm not gonna go out of my way to defend him... but I do know a couple ppl in the oil business and most of their money is tied up in their business... it is possible his business is worth quite a bit on paper and him be dirt poor.
I'm gonna step out on the opposite limb here and say, despite psychotic Chima, I'm betting CBS does do some sort of background checks on these ppl.
wow... looks like we need to fish more into his past if we can.... he seems like a scumbag douche to me...
I didn't want Betsy to leave,but you have to admit he's(russell) a riot,
I felt bad for the older man,he gave it his all tonight,but that was just to
physical for a man his age,really any of them,that was just extreme in my opinion.
Survivor Samoa’s Russell Hantz will be appearing on the 20th, all-star season of Survivor, according to his brother. In other words, the horrifyingly brilliant strategist isn’t leaving our TV sets anytime soon.
The Houston Chronicle reports that Russell “has been chosen for All-Star Survivor,” and that is an indication that Russell’s “opening act is just the tip of the iceberg” (i.e. he sticks around a long time).
The report’s source is Russell’s brother, Shawn, who said his brother’s inclusion on the all-star >season “ought to tell you something” about his time in Samoa.
Shawn works with his brother at Hantz Tankering Service, and also said that Russell is “not putting on a show. He’s just taking it to a huge extreme. He does in a sense try to run things. And I’m not going to say he runs me, but Russell has a very assertive personality.”
