The final three included CrossFit coach Natalie Anderson, Missy Payne, a cheerleader from Texas, and former Miss Michigan USA Jaclyn Schulz.

In the end, Natalie Anderson was named the ultimate Survivor.

What began with 18 loved ones pitted against one another in the series’ second Blood vs. Water match, Survivor Season 29 Episode 13 closed it out in style.

Natalie, who started the game with her twin sister Nadiya – the first person voted out of the game – was forced to fight, scratch and claw her way to the end.

The 28-year-old from Edgewater, N.J., has been on The Amazing Race (twice), so she’s used to thinking on her feet and never giving up, and it showed.

 

Natalie describes herself as “crazy, strong and confident” and her pet peeve as “girls who can’t do anything for themselves, lazy people and dumb people.”

The Survivor champ certainly backs up that talk, that’s for sure.

Natalie won five jury votes, Schulz two and Payne one vote.

If you watch Survivor online, you know she was a beast of a competitor, but even more so behind the scenes, engineering all the alliances she needed.

It was a championship well earned. As for next season?

Jeff Probst revealed three tribes – blue collar, white collar and no collar – will come to Nicaragua for the 30th iteration, entitled Survivor: Worlds Apart.

Sounds like yet another fun twist on the CBS juggernaut that continues to reinvent itself while sticking to the key factors that have made it such a mainstay.
