Danielle said it best “It’s clear that there’s been a lack of skill in your jury management.” That’s something that folks tend to forget not just in Survivor but in real life too: socializing with others in a positive manner is just as important as any other skill in life. Too often people will mistake being nice as being weak, that empathizing with others means your trying to get something from them, or that admitting you were wrong means that you were lying from the start and can’t be trusted. Being compassionate to others is not a weakness, it is one of the strongest things a human being can do and it is something that this world will always need more then someone who “tells it how it is!”

[@randmperson2]

Where I draw the line for Russell is that he’s a GREAT strategist, but a TERRIBLE player. There is a way to win this game by being the best strategically while still respecting the players and their games, and Russell never learned that. It’s exactly why he made it to the end twice but lost both times. If the social aspect of the game wasn’t a factor, he would’ve been a two-time winner. But that’s what makes Survivor so compelling: you can’t win on your own.

[@cdawg4021]

Exactly!! If Survivor was a game of chess and not a game of creating relationships than Russell would've won both seasons and if you go back and rewatch Samoa then you can see why he lost to Natalie White and that most of Russell's confessionals talk about strategy and not about building relationships.

[@jala1081]

There seems to be this great divide in fans, and I’m in this weird position. Russell was my favorite throughout the season, from his aggressive gameplay to his crazy antics. At the same time, seeing him get thrashed during the season and at the end was so satisfying because he definitely deserved it. I would have liked for Russell to win, but I understand why he hasn’t and never will. To me, HvV is a poetic story of players getting knocked off their pedestal and being humbled; whether they were truly great at the game or just had a big ego. It’s only fitting that the most arrogant person loses to someone far more humble than him in the end. Love season 20, and love Russell for making it fun.

[@secrets.295]

I understand now why Russell hated Sandra so much. Sandra isn't scared of Russell and the only girl who doesn't cower against him. Even Parvati at times were scared and she even cried. You see when Russell was furious with Sandra not telling him about the idol. Russell didn't went beast mode to attack Sandra. No 1 because he knew Sandra will not cower and she will wipe the floor with his face. No 2 because she knew yelling at Sandra is useless because Sandra doesn't care and nothing he said will break her. So instead, he went beast mode on Parvati by accusing her of lying. Russell just need to vent to somebody when things doesn't go as plan. If he can't do that to Sandra he will do it to Parvati. Parvati doesn't get hurt easily but even she cried when Russell accused her of lying. But Sandra, he knew there is nothing that would break her which is why it was so satisfying to see Sandra win and also why I just hate Russell so much. There is difference between being ruthless for playing the game vs actually being evil. Russell is an evil psycopath.

​@bigboygains137 Let me clarify one thing for you. Natalie didn't win because of a bitter jury, Natalie won because she was the jury favourite (apart from Brett, who would've cleaned house if he made FTC ). Even before FTC, Natalie had 3 people who were a guaranteed vote for her because unlike Russell, she actually bonded with them(Brett, Laura and Jaison). Russell had 2(Jon and Shambo) There were 4 free votes in FTC, and of them 2 already told Russell that they were never voting for them. And Natalie was the better than Mick. Russell's game is too short sighted, he makes unnecessary deals only to break them almost immediately, betraying the very people who have to vote for him at the end for no reason. Also I don't get why you all call the Samoa Jury bitter. They outright said they would've voted for Russell to win if he was against any combo of Mick, Jaison and Shambo in FTC. A bitter jury would never do that. They voted Natalie cause she played a good enough game while making strong bonds with everyone.

[@savannahyeah5470]

Heroes vs Villains is my absolute favorite season; so many great players, hilarious moments, and play. The ponderosa was epic too

[@Matt913]

What drives me absolutely crazy is that, he played the same game in two back-to-back seasons, and then he was brought back in a later season ('Redemption Island') with a chance to see everything he did wrong, and he changed...nothing. He did. The exact. Same. Things. Building a harem of female players thinking that no jury would vote for them at the end of the game, openly deceiving and plotting to keep secrets from his tribemates...if he'd had half a clue and just ATTEMPTED to have a better social game, his tribe wouldn't have gone out of their way to throw a challenge and vote him out so soon. His tribe had the option of either letting Rob waltz to the million dollars, or letting Russell get any better than third-to-last place, and they chose to give Rob a million dollars. As much as production is blamed for that season's poor reception, Russell deserves a share of the responsibility.

[@AllRequired]

In other words, Russell needed to be the Natalie of whichever tribe he fell to. Whatever Natalie W listed as important to her real-world occupation, that was going to come into play.

[@cdonovan4471]

Well, another thing he should've realized is that Parv, Jerri, and Danielle at this point were far from dumb, as 2 of them had been to FTC before with one of them winning, and couldn't see that the three of them were ready to ditch him once he stopped being useful to them until final 7 where he gets paranoid and votes out Danielle.

His game play lacked social interactions but regardless compared to most players that have played hes still has more on his resume and can be considered a legend.

[@benhargrove7969]

It’s funny seeing Coach call Russel a little man after Boston Rob called him that lol

[@ethangc081]

The conversation between Danielle and Russell at the FTC pretty much sums up everything about Russell’s arc in survivor.

[@nathantravis5659]

The passing of time has not been kind to Russell Hantz=Survivor game

[@berybluu6081]

i like how parvati was just so unbothered the entire season 😭😭

[@HeyLetsDoAThing]

Russell Hantz is the perfect goat. He's got lots of flair and makes good tv, and his way of play makes it ideal for other players to carry him all the way to the end because everyone hates him more than anyone else.

[@MUDGameshows]

You should add him getting voted out with an idol in Australian survivor haha

[@Hockeyhobo89]

Ok even as a Russell fan this was hilarious 😂

[@58twright]

I love how Sandra just destroyed Russell I love how she dosent take shit from people it’s awesome & Russell has no idea how to handle a jury at all lol

[@yeajjjjjj]

whats 1:57 from? I dont remember that being on the show

[@eagerturtle4791]

From what I remember, it was in the next week on survivor preview at the end of episode 6, but wasn't actually in episode 7. I think some kind of tragedy just happened around that time, so the show decided not to air that confessional.

[@3amDayDreamer]

2:34 and Russell wonders why he didn’t get any votes. Smh

[@reginamachamer821]

I love watching Sandra and Parvati together.. they were quite the duo lmao I thought they were hilarious together. It makes me sad that they seem to not be cool with each other anymore. Parvati seems annoyed by Sandra, anyway. Or well she did during WaW. I would've loved to see those two team up lol

[@theewhitetulip]

Sandra dragging Russel is my favorite thing ever

[@Logan-s9o]

Sandra did nothing all game

[@PhillipOnTakos]

Russel almost tanked the villains tribe but was saved by JT pulling the greatest "but if it worked" move in survivor. Then gets dragged to the end as one of the biggest goats in the game. The best part Russel never recognized any of this and tried the same thing again.

[@HumilityListens]

😂😂

[@mikewazowksi7938]

“he’s like the hobbit. on crack.” lmaoo

[@Dark_Aeon]

I *just* noticed that in HvV Courtney was wearing Todd's hat from china 😮

[@diegoprodriguez]

I feel like right around the Danielle boot, you could tell playing two back to back Survivor game was starting to take its mental toll on Russell.

[@Wreck.Create]

courtneys impression is so iconic lol

[@3amDayDreamer]

8:36 LMAOO Colby 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@theresagwhite3175]

Russell should have bought the DVD of Survivor China to see Todd's final tribal performance. Cause that's how you win a million dollars.

[@reginamachamer821]

I sometimes wonder.. had Spencer been on HvV, would he have been pulling for Russell the way he pulled for Tony?

[@entertainer_ev2747]

Gross

[@reginamachamer821]

@@entertainer_ev2747 I just laughed for like 3 whole minutes over this comment lmao thanks for that

[@-xiirusthetwat-5481]

@@reginamachamer821 Interesting to think about. Unlike Tony though, who did have a slightly existent social game at least and knew when to do what was needed for his strategy, Russel didnt really have much of a concrete alliance in HvV since the one he sort of had with Parvati was mainly one out of desperation on her part until she formed one with Danielle and later Sandra. Tony blindsided his allies to, but didnt burn bridges as quickly nor did he behave quite as cutthroat as Russel. Russel burned bridges and didnt seem to mind making the flames bigger even if they hurt him later as that was just his gameplan to reach the end. So in short, I think Spencer would have defended his game especially if he was called to talk after others had lambasted Russels strategy, but he probably wouldn’t have respected Russel as highly.

[@vaporterra]

I know I say this for many of your videos but this may be one of your best work yet!

[@hatty418]

This video gives me life. Thank you for making this

[@klassicalmuzik]

He thinks he’s so great, but he’s not a good social player. Thats why he got no votes cast for him as the winner.

[@matadorjesusfan6914]

Do Missy being a Karen from SJDS

[@3amDayDreamer]

Yes 🤣🤣🤣

[@buggirl-zw1cf]

1:52 PLS me @ all men😭✨

[@AlwaysVotingMAGA]

I love Russell & he's one of the greatest players despite never winning the game. But yes he can be way too mean sometimes & gets the jury to hate him.

[@jackoscar11]

when coach didnt vote for rob, thats when i fell in love

[@bee-kt2ys]

courtney's jury reactions are so fun

[@althechicken9597]

I was so happy when i saw the hat get burned! 🎩 🔥

[@MrAitraining]

2:30 "one of these" lol

[@LegionOfShrooms]

The Hobbit on crack 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@RelativityOfReality]

Say what you will about the man, he absolutely revolutionized the game and the way it’s played since he was on.

[@MrAitraining]

Heroes vs Villains is still my fav season.

[@066kshitizvsingh4]

12:11, The conversation where one should realise that Russell fails to understand a core aspect of Survivor, the one which caused him to lose twice

[@killshill5896]

Wild that the season is called Heroes vs Villains and Russell was obviously the strongest villain and was strategically the best player who controlled the majority of votes and definitely should have won. Through the edits of the season , everyone wanted Pavarti and Russell out , yet they both made it to the end. How Sandra won makes no sense especially when she says her strategy was to take out Russell yet was never able to. She had no control of the game and was just an extra vote the whole game. That group of players were just to full of themselves to give the win to Russell or Pavarti who definitely deserved it more than sandra.

[@yunsha9986]

It's heroes v/s villain ffs, they want him to play a saintish villain? wtf is that even...

[@AGJ117]

14:40 Russell could only play this game "one time" because he obviously can't make it past the first few episodes otherwise.

[@kungfubrandon6886]

yeah too big a threat

[@bigboygains137]

I've never seen someone make so many people mad by outplaying them so badly it almost looks embarrassing looking back.

[@abbycloud668]

13:44 She said “skill issue” lmaooooo

[@theasiannugget636]

I don’t think anyone can say that if Russell wasn’t in survivor it wouldn’t be as interesting. Yes he did a lot of things that hurt his jury management. But dude brought fans. Hands down as much as I didn’t like what he did a lot. He made his seasons fun to watch.

[@theturtlesurvivor579]

The fact that this is only 2 of his 4 seasons, and not even mentioning other people making fun of him in other seasons. Damn

[@vyaskoduvayur6887]

NOT JEFF'S RECAP 🤣🤣🤣

[@khalidnamie5682]

This was like the entire season. LOL!

[@Kernel15]

"I'm not gonna sit here and tell you want you want to hear" basically sums up why he's never won lmao

[@markjackson6431]

when Colby is like really Russell when he wanted to get rid of Danielle. you really want to get rid of the ONLY person you can beat

[@tekkenaddict1]

If you put Boston Rob and Phillip Shepard together, you'd end up with Russell Hantz.
