From the moment he became the first player ever to win his way back from the Edge Of Extinction, Rick Devens continued to find new ways to outlast on Survivor. Devens, a father and news anchor, played more Hidden Immunity Idols in a single season than any other player in the 40 season history of Survivor. He also won 4 individual Immunities, and tricked his rivals into playing multiple fake idols on his way to a historic Survivor finish.  Unfortunately for Devens, he was a part of the now legendary moment that eventual winner Chris Underwood gave up final immunity to face Devens in the final 4 fire making challenge.  Devens' dreams of being soul Survivor went up in flames.  But there was good news.  International pop star Sia was such a fan of the spirit and humor Devens played the game with that she surprised him with a $100,000 gift at the Survivor season 38 live finale.
