Prénom: Benoît
Métier: Entraîneur de football

22 ans, Morbihan (56)
Adolescent, Benoît a quitté sa famille pour réaliser son rêve: devenir footballeur professionnel et vivre de sa passion.
Cette expérience l'a fait grandir plus vite que les autres. Mais ses parents le voient encore comme le petit garçon qui a quitté le nid trop tôt.
Sur Koh-Lanta, il veut leur prouver qu'il est devenu un homme.

Koh-Lanta[]

Benoît was selected by Bruno Troester to be a part of the Sambor tribe. The Sambor tribe lost many challenges, though Benoît found himself secure early on with Candice Boisson, Stéphane Cipolla, Lau Émilien, and, eventually, Julie Navarro-Camilleri, allowing for him to survive all of the Sambor tribe's Tribal Councils. During the fourth cycle, Julie found a Hidden Immunity Necklace at the fourth Immunity Challenge after having found the corresponding clue earlier, though she kept Benoît in the loop about this. After finding this advantage, Julie handed it to Benoît since he had more room in his clothes to carry it with discretion. During the sixth cycle, Benoît visited Treasure Island for his first time and did not succeed in finding the Golden Ring. Additionally, after the Sambor tribe lost the sixth Immunity Challenge, Benoît won the following surprise individual Immunity Challenge and participated in the elimination of Jean-Luc Duboscq.

Going into the merge, Benoît and the other five second Sambor tribe members found themselves against seven second Naga tribe members. Only needing one person to flip in order to gain a majority, the second Sambor tribe members tried to recruit Ludivine Wiart into their alliance since she was originally a member of the Sambor tribe, but she did not budge as she felt fully incorporated into the second Naga tribe members' alliance. Thanks to Jean-Luc having tipped them off the cycle prior, the second Sambor tribe members were aware that Jesta Hillmann and Jérémy Raffin were somewhat on the outs of the Naga tribe, but they erroneously believed that Sandrine Bouzekri had cast a black vote against Jérémy after her elimination. Missing an opportunity to work with the pair, the second Sambor tribe members voted against Jérémy at the merged tribe's first Tribal Council based on their false assumption. Conversely, the second Naga tribe members voted out Lau in a close 7-6 vote and, to make matters worse, Benoît misplayed the Hidden Immunity Necklace that Julie had found on himself.

The next cycle, after winning the first individual Reward Challenge, Benoît forfeited his reward to Alexandra Pharisien and Ludivine in exchange for what would be his second visit to Treasure Island. Benoît succeeded in finding the Golden Ring, which rendered him immune from being eliminated until the finale. Upon returning to camp, Benoît kept his Golden Ring hidden and strategized with his fellow second Sambor tribe members to try to make himself the second Naga tribe members' next target in order to "idol out" one of them instead. Meanwhile, Béryl approached Candice and proposed that they work together going forward out of admiration for the latter's challenge prowess. Having no guarantee from Béryl that her proposal didn't exclude the second Sambor tribe members, Candice relayed this information back to her allies, giving them an idea for who to stack their votes against. After Benoît lost the third individual Immunity Challenge, the second Naga tribe members made plans to target Benoît as he had hoped, though Jesta and Alexandra grew suspicious of his behaviour and suggested that the alliance target somebody else instead. In spite of Jesta and Alexandra's intuitions, the second Naga tribe members ultimately did not play it safe and voted against Benoît at Tribal Council. Benoît revealed his Golden Ring before the votes were read, which nullified all of the votes cast against him, and Béryl was "idoled out" thanks to the votes of the second Sambor tribe members.

Safe until the Final Five, Benoît voted correctly at every Tribal Council going forward and maintained a strong allegiance to fellow young tribemates Candice and Jesta. Having made it to the finale, Benoît won the Perch challenge at the Final Three and took Jesta to the Final Two instead of Freddy Bolzer. At the Final Tribal Council, Benoît high status as an adventurer contrasted the criticisms that Jesta faced, resulting in him winning against Jesta in a unanimous 10-0 vote.
