I read this article and still can't recall this guy. He's no Richard Hatch. Or Ambuh. Or even Sandra (she won, right?)

A winner of the popular "Survivor" TV game show is jailed in Douglas County on domestic violence and animal cruelty charges.

Brian Heidik, 38, is scheduled to make his first appearance this morning in Douglas County Magistrate Court, authorities said.

Heidik was jailed Tuesday on domestic violence-related simple battery and cruelty to animal charges, jail officials said.

Details on what led to his arrest or his connection to Douglas County were not immediately available.

Heidik, a former North Carolina State football player, used-car salesman and part-time actor, lives in Quartz Hill, Calif. His Web site biography says he is married and has a son.

He won the $1 million prize as the sole survivor of "Survivor: Thailand," the fifth edition of the CBS adventure game show broadcast from September to December 2002.

Heidik's TV acting credits include appearances on "Baywatch Nights," "Doogie Howser, M.D." and the popular soap opera "Days of Our Lives."

His film credits as David Roth, according to IMDB.com, the internet movie database, include "Chick Street Fighter," and "Virgins of Sherwood Forest."

Thailand was the most boring season of all.

I remember him - he was the sleezoid who seemed to be a bit of a misogynist.

I thought Clay was the woman-hater. Maybe Brian was too. Slezoid is definitely on the mark.

Brian was the guy who did softcore porn. Neither Brian or Clay had much repsect for women though. It could have been a great season, but the strong team of young people were so retarded they kept on losing. Brian was the most fit of the rest of them and survived in one of the worst final three EVER.

Not just a dog - a PUPPY!

I watched that season.
Brian was NEVER a likeable guy, I have to say.
It always pissed me off that a jerk like him won the million.
But I'm sorry to hear (yet not surprised to hear) that it hasn't made his life any better...or made him a better man.

Very, very sad.

I think all reality shows should have a new morality clause in their contracts.

If you ever are caught shooting a pet with a bow and arrow, we reserve the right to take back your $1,000,000.

and another

If you are from Boston, you are legally required to hire a voice coach to remove your accent. If your accent doesn't fade within 1 year, we reserve the right to reclaim your winnings. (just kidding! I love all accents even a Bostonian's)
