For the 42nd season of the veteran reality show, 18 new faces have hit the shores of Fiji. Their ages span from under 20 to late 50s. Their occupations range from a pageant coach to a retired firefighter to an exotic animal veterinarian. But the one thing they have in common: A hunger (before their literal hunger) to become the latest Sole Survivor and take home the million-dollar prize. Launch the gallery to find out the 18 players competing in Survivor 42.
