Get to know Darnell Hamilton
Darnell Hamilton's own answers from the pre-game cast profile CBS published before the season aired.
- Claim to fame
- Graduating from college. It has been a long and hard road, but I did it! I was horrible in high school because I didn't give a damn, not because I wasn't smart. Now I have finished college and not only that, I did it with a 3.47GPA while working jobs all day and night.
- Hobbies
- Gaining knowledge, fishing and working out.
- Pet peeves
- People who talk too much and habitual liars.
- Inspiration
- Growing up, I never had a hero, just examples of what not to do. If I had to pick a hero, it would be Jesus, someone who was willing to sacrifice himself for the good of others even when they didn't deserve it. That's real.
- Why they wanted to play
- I want to prove to the world that I can win and be successful in life despite my past. I want to encourage other people who think they're useless and do something worth value. I also want to become the best survivor ever! I want to be forever remembered as the ultimate Survivor!
