 * Steve was the first person on Survivor: Redemption Island to be voted off unanimously.
 * On one of Jeff Probst's video blogs, Jeff stated that he thinks that Steve threw the Redemption Island duel where he was eliminated, thinking that Steve knew he was tired and wasn't in the best shape and that he might as well just get eliminated to go to Ponderosa and just relax and in the end it would be worth it.
