Craig I'Anson is a contestant from Australian Survivor (2016).

A strategic player, Craig was well known for being a part of Andrew Torrens's Vavau alliance. After the tribe dissolve, Craig remained loyal to his alliance until he decided to turn on his leader, Andrew. With Andrew gone, Craig took the new position as leader, but his downfall began soon after the tribe openly told Phoebe Timmins she was the target. Being seen as the mastermind, Craig was blindsided at the next Tribal Council in a 2-0 vote when Phoebe played her second Hidden Immunity Idol to save herself.

Age: 32
Occupation: Emergency Services Recruitment Officer
State: QLD

Fit, strong and engaging, Craig calls a spade a spade. He loves nothing more than running faster and lifting more weights than his "macho" mates.

A senior recruitment officer for Queensland Fire and Emergency Services, Craig has been dreaming of being a Survivor castaway for many years. "Survivor has been an obsession and a passion of mine for 16 years. I love the tribal aspect of the show and I love the extremities you need to endure and test yourself against."

Craig has his own story of survival. Following an accident in 2012, he was burned in a fire. With burns to 35% of his body, doctors told him he may never be able to go out in the sun again. He proved them wrong after a few months.

Craig says: "I was burnt in a fire and spent 16 days in hospital. I had to rehabilitate myself and it was a very dark time but I learned how strong I really was. I learnt the lesson in life that no matter how dark and low times are, there is always a light."

Leaving behind his two "fur babies", that is, his dogs, Craig has also given up a massive European holiday with partner Tom to be on Australian Survivor. He does not regret his decision and says: "We will go on an even better holiday when I've won half a million dollars!"

When he's not planning Survivor domination, Craig loves to play Pokémon, do martial arts and watch good movies.[1]
