Bradley Kleihege is a fantasticSurvivorplayer.

Or at least thats what we were led to believe from the edit.

How much of what we saw on screen was the real Bradley?

How much does it kill him to not even make the merge?

And who is not playing the game out there on the island?

Bradley revealed all that and more.

I thought Chelsea had convinced them to flip on me.

What actually happened was Kellyn and I would go and talk about who we wanted to send home.

And thats how we got nobody to feel like they were on the bottom.

We had such a grip on Malolo that it was too much for Dom.

He thought it was too big of a threat.

It was 100 percent Doms decision to get rid of me last night.

Sebastian and I were very close.

If you go back to the Brendan vote, he was never going to flip on me.

He was 100 percent in my back pocket.

So I had those two, I had Des, I was very close with Wendell.

I thought I had Dom.

Apparently, I didnt.

Thats generally our core group.

Whom did you want to be sitting next to at the end?Sebastian and Jenna.

Or lets say a Jenna or a Chelsea.

So I knew I needed to pick people that really were not playing the game too much.

What you saw is me, but its definitely me as an exaggerated version.

You cannot take that at face value.

Ive been watching the show since I was 9.

I wanted to be a villain, and I knew it makes better TV if you are ridiculous.

What youdontsee is that the producers were also like, Cmon, guys, lets go!

Its taking you forever to cook your steaks, and youve got bugs all over them now.

You mentioned wanting to go out there and be aSurvivorvillain.

Why is that?I just think its the funnest character onSurvivor.

Its just a fun way to play the game.

I think from an entertaining standpoint, its really fun to watch on TV.

How much does it kill you to go out right before the merge?It was devastating.

It was really, really hard.

I really didnt see it coming.

Right before we left for Tribal there was a very weird energy at camp.

Once the game is over, there was a whole different dynamic.

So while it was devastating and the worst experience, it was also amazing.

We get along great outside the game.

There hasnt been a morning where I havent woken up a little bit devastated since it happened.

Or people that were never going to win.

Are you talking about Libby?Donathan is a good example.

Chelsea was completely irrelevant.

Her edit is actually pretty representative of what she was doing out there.

Its kind of amusing to see.

Obviously, they cannot show everything.

Who is working together and who isnt?

Who is on the bottom?

But it was 100 percent a 50-50 between the two of us making the decisions.

I had a really good base set of relationships that I had built.
