Kane Fritzler is a part of the tribe Ratu on Survivor season 44

Kane Fritzler is not joining the show to win a million dollars but to grow as a person. His inspiration on the show is Tyson Apostol, who won Survivor: Blood vs. Water season. In an interview with Global news, he said:

"I want to go out there and have a ton of fun, but I also want to play super hard and leave my mark on Survivor, so I’m going to try and approach a Tyson game."

Kane told everyone that he was going to Vietnam and traveling the world while shooting for the show. He was supposed to start his job at the time but called his boss for an extension on his joining date. His boss agreed to the same, and soon after that, Kane began doing his “homework” for the show. He said in an interview:

"I mapped out all of the seasons that I knew I wanted to watch, and me and my girlfriend, Kat, we just crushed them. We were watching a binge-worthy dirty amount of Survivor."

He also did a lot of cardio and planned to make a lot of “allies out of friends.” When his grandmother visited, Fritzler and his family would watch the show together. Originally from Moose Jaw, Canada, he calls himself “Inclusive, loud, and competitive” and is now associated with Robertson Stromberg Barristers and Solicitors.

At a national negotiation competition held at a Canadian law school, he was named the best negotiator. His introductory video states that law school taught him to be a good negotiator and that he brings good vibes to the table.

CBS' description of the season reads:

"Contestants who are stranded on a remote island try to survive on it and face challenging tasks to win the grand prize money."

Survivor will air on CBS every Wednesday at 8 pm ET. After the television premiere, viewers can stream the show on Paramount Plus and the network's website.
