Castaway
Janu Tornell
The Las Vegas showgirl who, worn down on Palau, quit the game in eighth — sparing Stephenie LaGrossa and becoming the only player ever to quit specifically to save someone else.
Janu Tornell brought Las Vegas glamour to the Palau jungle — a longtime showgirl whose glittery confidence slowly eroded under the toll of the game on the dominant Koror tribe. By the late merge she was running on empty.
At one Tribal Council she made a rare choice: rather than vote, she quit the game in eighth, an exit that spared Stephenie LaGrossa that night. Janu remains the only player ever to quit specifically to save someone else.
Pulled from the urn — every vote ever cast against Janu, and how often Janu read the night right.
