Ben Driebergen is trying to win a million dollars on Season 35 of Survivor dubbed Survivor: Heroes vs. Healers vs. Hustlers.

Ben is a 34-year-old U.S. Marine from Boise, ID. While Ben started out as a member of the Heroes tribe called "Levu," a recent swap left him on the "Yawa" tribe with a mix of Healers, Hustlers and Heroes.
Ben became ride-or-die allies with Chrissy Hofbeck, but the pair are currently on different tribes.
Ben is a little bit of the odd man out since he's the only Hero on his new tribe, but as a preview showed for the next episode, he's going to clash with Cole Medders, who was already rubbing some of his tribemates the wrong way. Will the castaways be forced to choose a side or will the game change things up again?
