Brandon Bellinger was a 22-year-old Farmer from Manhattan, Kansas when he competed on Survivor: Guatemala. A Rock Creek High School graduate who worked as a farmer and rancher, Brandon was the only male on the Nakúm tribe not affected by the grueling opening day 11-mile hike. He was part of the five-member majority alliance on Nakúm but found himself on the wrong side of the numbers after switching to Yaxhá. Brandon was the first person voted out after the merge on Day 21, becoming the first member of the jury despite having close relationships with several other jurors. He was later named one of 'America's Hottest Bachelors' by People Magazine in 2006.
