Castaway Profile

Sean O'Connor

Sean is a castaway on Survivor: Dearborn - Season 1 and Survivor: Dearborn - Heroes vs Villains.

 

Sean's is known for being iconic and chaotic on his first season, resulting in him being the series first Fan Favorite. He began his journey on the purple tribe, and immediately solidified an alliance with Matt Orischak. However, he became one of the biggest targets after claiming to have found an immunity idol to his whole tribe despite it being a piece of wood. Sean would receive multiple votes in the premerge, but aligned with the right players to keep him safe. During the merge, he received unfortunate news that his dad had scheduled golf lessons and would have to leave the game eventually. However, his name became a scapegoat to blindside others making his remaining rounds chaotically mischievous. It wasn't until final 7 that his dad told him to come home that Sean was ultimately voted out and sent to the jury. 

​

In 2018, Sean returned for Season 4 - Heroes vs Villains as a Villain. He would again align with Matt to form a bridge between the Upperclassmen and Underclassmen. Sean quickly found himself entangled in drama after finding a secret advantage envelope inside Charlie Rich's bag - which was planted by Cam Godin. He continued down his path of mischief, siding with the Underclassmen to blindside Jen Lessnau. The vote split the tribe by age and at the next tribal council they found themselves in a 5-5 vote split for Mikey Divis and Martin Brown, forcing Sean to choose. He decided to stick with his Underclassmen and go down with the ship, sending the tribe to rocks. On the first draw, Dom miscounted the rocks and it was revealed Sean had pulled the Black Rock, sparing him from elimination. After recounting and redistributing the rocks for the second time, Sean pulled the Black Rock again, officially sending him home with no votes to his name.
