Castaway
Jonathan Libby
Competed on Survivor: Palau (2005), finishing 20th.
Jonathan Libby holds one of the strangest distinctions in Survivor history. In Palau's brutal opening twist, twenty castaways hit the beach but the tribes picked their members one by one — and when the dust settled, Jonathan was one of two players left unchosen, sent home before he ever officially joined a tribe.
Credited with a twentieth-place finish, he was eliminated essentially before the game began. A cruel quirk of one of the show's most ruthless season starts.
