Russell Hantz is the only player in Survivor history to play the game
three times in just two years. He first played Survivor in 19th edition
of Survivor: Survivor Samoa in 2009. He placed 2nd. Next he would play
Survivor in it's 20th edition: Survivor Heroes vs Villains in 2010. He
placed 3rd. The shooting for the 20th season actually began 10 days
after the filming of 19th season so none of the other all-stars players
had ever watched him play. Hantz played Survivor again in Survivor 22: Redemption
Island in 2011. Out of 18 players, he placed 17th.
