Hawai native Dan Link finally becomes the winner of Naked and Afraid: Last One Standing season two after coming in second place during a previous season.
The 34-year-old actor Dan Link first became popular after his appearance in the Discovery Channel’s blockbuster show Naked and Afraid, which has been running since 2013.
Since the new season also included the former contestant, Dan Link got another opportunity to taste victory.
Further, as Link almost won in the previous season, fans were already speculating that Dan Link would not let go at this time, as he appeared very competitive.
Similarly, as fans have speculated, Dan Link won season two of Naked and Afraid: Last One Standing and took home the top prize of $100,000.
Dan Link confirmed that his biggest competitor was Ky Furneaux on the show Naked and Afraid!
Ky Furneaux is an Australian survival expert and Hollywood stuntwoman who has completed five Naked and Afraid challenges and survived 91 days in the wild. So, it is no doubt why she became hard on Dan Link.
During the conversation with Khon2 news, the winner shared his experience in the show while claiming Ky Furneaux is his most significant competitor.
He said, “Ky is smart, quick, and an excellent survival author. She’s incredibly skilled and knows what it takes to win. I’m rooting for her as my biggest competitor and ally. If she wins, I’ll be jumping up and down for her.“
