“He Deserved It!” Female ‘Survivor’ Contestant Gets Booted Off Show After Headbutting Male Rival

A female contestant on the Romanian version of Survivor has been booted off the show after breaking the nose of a fellow contestant.

Ana Maria Pal – who also happens to be a professional MMA fighter – was competing in a challenge, after losing, an unfortunate chap from an opposing team decided to get in her face and let her know about it.

None too impressed, the 26-year-old delivered a swift headbutt to Andrei Ciobanul’s nose, leaving it broken and him bloodied.

Pal was subsequently booted from the show for the violent act, after declaring that poor Andrei “deserved it”. Check out the fun below:

Another Romanian UFC fighter, Diana Belbita, who’d previously appeared on the show led the chorus condemning Pal’s actions.

“I cannot agree with the gesture tonight of Ana Maria Pal,” wrote on Instagram. “It is not a typical gesture for performance fighters and I would like to avoid generalising.

“If Ana made this gesture, she’s the only one who takes it … This is not a typical gesture for a fighter, Ana Maria is the only one who assumes the consequences.”
