Michael Yerger was just 18, the youngest castaway, and played far above his years as a Malolo minority strategist who survived a remarkable number of Tribal Councils. He played a hidden idol that negated seven votes to save himself (sending Libby home) and famously bluffed Jeff Probst and the tribe with a 'double idol' claim, even brandishing a fake 'Ozzy stick.'
His luck finally ran out in the season's split, double-Tribal twist: after Kellyn used an extra vote to force a tie, Michael was eliminated ninth despite all his idol theatrics.
