Dave Ball is one of the twenty castaways of Survivor: Samoa. The 38-year-old lives in Los Angeles and currently works as a fitness instructor. The self-proclaimed “rock and roll rebel” and native Oklahoman took many odd jobs, including being a flight attendant, before being forced to sort out his health problems. Outside of his work, he enjoys playing strategy games, biking, hiking, and performing martial arts.

His strong personality may have gotten him into trouble before, he is good at reading people, something that’s helped him many times before. He claims he is in this for the experience rather for the money, but will rely on his element of surprise to be on top of things.
