Perhaps you are thinking of Lex Luthor.

He wasn't evil....but definitely control-freak psychotic. If you dared to breathe a breath of disloyalty to him, he went off. When he was voted off, he was more pissed than anyone I've ever seen, and at the final vote he was psychotic in his rage against those who had conspired against him.

Maybe we could expand that to psycho, evil, and control freaks. Then we could certainly throw in Boston Rob.

You'd think that as a yoga instructor, Aras should have won that one. Maybe he's not a very good yogi?

I think it was just much harder for the guys. Not because they're balance is worse (Terry has certainly shown his balance is very good in previous challenges) but because their weight put the entire final float under water (and Terry's more than Aras's) whereas Danielle's was still above water.

Once a float is completely or mostly submerged its behavior is completely different and much harder to keep balanced.

It's not the first time that the final challenge has been horribly skewed based on body-type. Danni won last season's simply because she had the longest legs (which, btw, makes here someone who won the final immunity AND the million).

Yeah, that's why I was asking if all the challenges are predetermined before taping begins.
