Albert Destrade is a contestant from Survivor: South Pacific.
Known for his constant scheming within his alliance (mainly against Sophie Clarke), Albert infamously convinced Brandon Hantz to give up his Immunity Necklace to him before he was voted out. However, his failure to act on those plots, combined with his numerous betrayals and giving false hope to those going to the jury ended up earning him no votes at the Final Tribal Council.

Name (Age): Albert Destrade (26)
Tribe designation: Upolu
Current residence: Plantation, Fla.
Occupation: Baseball/Dating Coach
Personal claim to fame: I hit my first college home run off of a guy that was a 1st round draft pick.
Inspiration in life: I'm going to go with the lead character from the movie "Bull Durham." Kevin Costner's "Crash Davis" exemplifies a lot of attributes I can relate to. He is a hero of mine because of how he goes about his business as a ballplayer. He's a life-grinder. Plus, he's colorful and full of wisdom.
Hobbies: Poker, writing and exercise.
Pet peeves: I have little to no patience for ignorance. People who are uninformed about something, yet insist to be opinionated about it, really irritate me. I also get bothered by mentally weak people.
3 words to describe you: Versatile, dynamic and resourceful.
Survivor contestant you are most like: I really like how J.T. managed to forge himself as a leader on Season 18 without being overbearing or bossy whatsoever. He commanded respect and led by example.
Reason for being on Survivor: I have a legitimate chance to win one million dollars. Also, I can prove to myself that I can beat all in a game of strength, strategy and will.
Why you think you'll "survive" Survivor: I was a Division I college athlete as recently as four years ago. I am a tough guy to beat in challenges. I'm a team player and I don't have a problem contributing to any construction, hunting, fishing or gathering.
Why you think you will be the Sole Survivor: I know that I possess a unique combination of attributes that would make me a favorite in this game. I'm athletic and very socially adept. I'm calculated and self-aware. Ultimately, if you combine my awareness, physical strength and social calibration, I bring a lot to the table.[1]
