BEN DRIEBERGEN WHY IS HE WEARING A BANDAGE ON HIS SHOULDER?

Among the many questions about Ben Dreibergen that drive people crazy is: why is Ben on Survivor wearing a bandage? It was originally predicted that he suffered an injury while filming the Reality TV series. Some have also guessed that a terrifying sunburn was the cause of Ben’s shoulder bandage. However, it is now said that Ben is actually hiding a tattoo he recently carved on the upper part of his shoulder.

Although it is difficult to read what is under the bandage, it can be assumed that it displays information that cannot be broadcast on national television. Otherwise, why would he have to hide it? Fans are also wondering if the tattoo is something protected or too personal to be shown on TV. Early last month, Ben also tweeted that he had received numerous requests to show off the discovered tattoo, but he didn’t give any further details about it.

Ben on Survivor’s tattoos also include a Horus (an ancient Egyptian god) with several other intricate designs on his arms and hands. Although his bandaged tattoo is the hot topic, it looks like we’ll be waiting a little longer to see it, after all! With that last minute game from his hidden immunity idol last night, we might see Ben in it for the long haul!

INTERVIEW WITH BEN DRIEBERGEN

SheKnows: Congratulations, Ben! You just won a million dollars! What’s going through your head right now?
Ben Driebergen: Thank you very much. It’s a great feeling. It will help my family, my wife and my children in the future. It’s going to be awesome. SK: Did you know you were going to win? BD: You have the right feelings, but you also have feelings that you’ve lost. Everyone has these feelings. I think the three of us felt like we had won. I think the three of us had feelings that we had lost. However, I was never convinced that I had won. When the second vote came in for Chrissy, I thought I lost. I really did.

SK: What’s it like sitting on stage in front of millions of people with the stress of not knowing if you won the money?
BD: I don’t know if you saw it on camera, but my neck was shaking. I was trying to hold my hand. It was such an agonizing feeling. I’ve never had my head shaken like this. I was like, ‘Calm down and breathe.’ It was crazy. For me, getting the votes was amazing. These guys are awesome. SK: Your back was constantly against the wall. When it looked like your time was finally over, a fiery twist was thrown into the game and you were able to land in the bottom three.

BD: I didn’t know the fire making challenge was going to happen until Chrissy got her advantage. It was one more attempt to get back into the game. I went into it with guns blazing. I had no other way. To fight Devon, he’s amazing. I wouldn’t have wanted it otherwise. A face to face against him is worth it.

SK: I have attended 23 finals, and I have never heard such a positive reaction towards a competitor. The live studio audience really wanted you to win and cheered for every step you took. Can you hear the crowd?
BD: Yeah. It was kind of a surreal moment with the cameras and the microphones. Everything is new. Being on stage and having that crowd noise was such a good feeling. The fans have been great. It’s a trip because I’m a fan. I have fans who come to me, but I’m just one of them. It’s awesome. SK: It looks like if you hadn’t won, the fans might have left the final earlier if they had been allowed to.

BD: It’s surprising. Coming back and watching it, there are moments that I wasn’t too proud of. We are human. That’s the problem with all of this. We are all human. We are relatives. We are husbands. We are mothers. We have flaws. Name a person who has no faults. To have that kind of support from people I don’t even know who watched me on TV, I’m so grateful. I am honored. It’s incredible.

SK: Is there a move that you think cemented you in winning the match?
BD: Lauren and I were one and two. We woke up every morning, sat down on the paper before everyone else, and talked about our children. We talked about life while keeping the fire lit all night. She was literally my ride or die. Being able to see her as a bigger threat and not just my friend, taking her out when I did, that would probably be my biggest move.

SK: Much of your survivor story has surrounded your life with PTSD. How did you bring attention to PTSD?
BD: Vets go through a lot. PTSD is a real thing. Many vets worry about how this is perceived on the outside. Some think it’s a sign of weakness. But it’s in your head. It’s not. It’s a natural reaction. If I can help a vet, it’s worth it. We have been through a lot. We will be brothers for life.

SK: Have you been approached by viewers who also suffer from PTSD?
BD: Many fans reached out to me and reached out via social media with words of support. “Hey, we’re here with you. Thank you for bringing this to our attention. If we can help this be more visible, it’s worth it. ‘

SK: How did you get on the show?
BD: I applied. I sent a video. Old school. My wife and I are big fans. We watch the show every Wednesday. The kids go to mom and dad’s room and have a movie night. We drink wine and watch Survivor. She told me to make a video and put your money where your mouth is. I made a video and got a call.

SK: What are you going to spend the million dollars on?
BD: We’re going to save him. We will repay our debt. No more credit card debt. We’re going to pay off the house and put money aside for our kids and college. Education is a big problem. We’re going to figure out how we can make the money work for us instead of spending it. We want to be smart about it.
