Happy Birthday Jake Billingsley!

Survivor fans around the world stand up and get your birthday hats on as today we celebrate Thailand contestant Jake Billingsley's 71st Birthday!

As the oldest male on the season, Jake got to pick his Sook Jai tribe, choosing most of the younger contestants. However he didn’t predict the fighting and his tribe only made it to the merge with three people, partly because of the unexpected fake merge twist. Jake was the last remaining Sook Jai member left in the game coming in at 6th place. Jake was known for his sometimes possibly far-fetched stories of his past.

Jake gave an insightful interview on the show last year talking about his time in Thailand.

From all of the team here at Survivor Oz, we pass on our well wishes and happy birthday to Jake! What are some of your best memories of Jake? Comment below to let us know!
