[edit] Colby Donaldson
Originally from Christoval, Texas, Colby Donaldson is a successful, self-employed custom auto designer and builder currently living in Dallas, Texas. He graduated from Texas Tech University with a degree in business marketing and began working as a sales representative at an HMO carrier until he decided to leave the security of a successful corporate job to pursue a passion and start his own company.
Donaldson describes himself as imaginative, dedicated and flexible. A competitive athlete, he enjoys water skiing and mountain biking before gathering with friends for a barbecue. When not customizing cars, Donaldson enjoys designing and building furniture. His favorite sport to watch is football, but he prefers to play sand volleyball.
His birth date is April 1, 1974.
[edit] Australia
He entered the reality television series Survivor: The Australian Outback, in which he was the runner-up. He controversially, on a reward challenge, removed coral from the Great Barrier Reef. At the end of the competition, the dominant Colby made a move which most people considered to be a mistake in judgment, and which was widely believed to have cost him the competition. Donaldson won the final immunity challenge, giving him the choice of who he would rather face in the final vote, and passed up an opportunity to vote off Tina Wesson, who ultimately defeated him. Colby instead cast his vote for Keith Famie who was generally disliked and seen as less deserving to win the title of Sole Survivor.
[edit] All-Stars
Colby was chosen to participate in Survivor: All-Stars, where he was on the Mogo Mogo tribe and was the 7th person voted out. At the Survivor: All Stars televised reunion Survivor: America's Tribal Council, Donaldson was voted by an online poll as the sexiest male castaway of all first 8 seasons. Donaldson is also known for his friendship with Survivor host Jeff Probst and their regular poker games.
