Originally from West Jefferson, Ohio, Chris Daugherty attended Madison Plains High School, followed by two years of college at Kentucky Christian College. Daughtery aspires to be a teacher and is most proud to have been able to entertain a class of 4th graders on Career Day.

Daugherty currently works for the Ohio Department of Transportation building roads. He previously worked for his father's drainage company as a heavy equipment operator and has also worked in a sporting goods store. His hobbies include going to NASCAR races, four-wheeling in his jeep and playing basketball. He describes himself as spontaneous, funny and creative. He loves children and tends to gravitate toward the underdog. He believes his ability to think quickly on his feet, willingness to help others and strong physical and mental condition will help him become the Sole Survivor.

Daugherty currently resides in South Vienna, Ohio, with his fiancée, Lorie, and his pet lizard. His birth date is August 29, 1970.

He seems like a typical guy's guy like my brother. Baseball cap all the time, loves football, beer and bodily functions. I like my brother, but not sure about this guy!

Okay, he's wearing a shirt in his picture: ten points! He seems like an actual normal person ... on one hand, normal is good (after half a season on stuntcasted TAR beauty queens). On the other, he seems like a normal person I wouldn't get along with in real life. Pre-meh, leaning towards like.

A guy I work with went to school with him and said he was a party-hardy guy.

He's the prototypical blue collar beer-drinker. But the ambition to be a teacher hints at a softer (and smarter) side. I am intrigued.

FIRST IMPRESSION: He keeps a lizard? I bet if you put a scraggly beard and an unkempt bear mop on him, you'd have Rupert 2.0.

Snerks Senora Guapa: "His lizard was born in 1970, huh?" Probably not much gas left in the old Gila Monster.

I also get the everyman vibe from him. He's just a regular blue-collar, beer-drinking NASCAR fan. But, like jennblevins beautifully put it, he's like the everyman that I normally don't get along with. He seems like he may be a bit boorish. When his inner boor comes out, I'll shift to dislike, but for now a pre-meh.

I know it looked like he was trying on the balance beam, but it just sort of came off as half-hearted to me. Once the girls started making their fire, I don't think he tried that hard. He seemed to give up. He should have unquestionably been the one to go home.

I think Chris is the first person I have ever seen who could belly crawl across a balance beam. He just rolled off. And I agree that he just seemed to give up once all the girls got across. Totally should have been gone.

Of all the profiles, his seemed one of the blandest to me, yet he seemed like one of the more entertaining and interesting of the men. I'm kind of glad he survived that dismal challenge performance, although I'm not sure that I'm betting on him making the merge.

He is right that challenges typically don't repeat till the merge, so bad performance in one should mean (in my mind) "well, you might need my skills in the next one, but at least we're through with XYZ."

I'm bordering on the verge of hate already for this tool.
So insufferably smug, and his attitude really grated for some reason.

He endeared himself to me (for a bit) because he was the one who pointed out that the men would start to pick one another off, the women would come together to beat them. Granted, he was the missing link in the challenge, but all the other JOHN P, err, men, were dismissing the women & chest thumping during the ceremony with the tribe from Vanuata.

Wasn't he the one who said he could outsmart a bunch of guys easier than a bunch of women? Aside from that, he didn't really do much for me after all. And seriously, how the hell do you fall off something upon which you're lying flat and clutching?

On purpose ? I can't shake the feeling that he "threw" that challenge. Big risk, but then, he might have started a plan for voting off my TV boyfriends one by one.

he was the one who pointed out that the men would start to pick one another off, the women would come together to beat them


Here's hoping he clues in the rest of the guys before this happens, and not after. Because Chris ? Being the last guy left in Vanuatu really doesn't mean much unless you're the last Survivor left.

Either the laws of physics ganged up on him or he's an incredible klutz who will be lucky if he doesn't wind up in the fire like whathsname.

Or it just looks like Sarge doesn't think he can beat Brook in an indivudual challenge, whereas he's 1000% sure he can clean this kid's clock without breaking a sweat.

Yep, very unimpressive so far. But if he throws in with the right people---and apparently that's exactly what he's doing---looks like we'll be stuck with him for a while.

I think he's fortunate that he took the initiative early on and made an alliance with enough guys to form an alliance - he says while casting his vote, "I've been playing since the moment we stepped on this beach." He must be a decent player to survive single-handedly losing the first challenge for his tribe. In several seasons of Survivor, this has been the exact reason for the first ouster, such as with Sonja and Debb.

I agree. I felt sorry for the guy when he was struggling, but I lost all sympathy when he seemed to give up.
