Rupert Boneham (born January 27, 1964) was a contestant on Survivor: Pearl Islands and Survivor: All-Stars, and is arguably the most popular Survivor to ever play the game.
Conversely, Rupert's detractors found him to be a bully and an intimidator when he angrily, and nearly physically, confronted one of his fellow tribemates to demand to know why he would attempt to vote him out of the competition.
Boneham used his winnings to buy a home, set up a college fund for his daughter, pay off his and his mother's debts and start Rupert's Kids, a non-profit organization dedicated to helping troubled teens, especially those mired in the juvenile court system.
