    I know, but at least Probst didn't utter the cringe-worthy "Are you ready to get some love?"

    Sad.

    Wow. That sucks.

    RIP to someone who deserved better.

    He seemed pretty likable on the show.
    Although he did have poor taste in men.

    Agree on both counts, Buck.

    On another note, I can't stand reading sentences such as, "News of Bankston's death has spread across the web, and has shaken the Survivor community, with a number of former contestants tweeting condolences."

    A number of former contestants tweeting condolences hardly equates to leaving the Survivor community "shaken."

    Seemed like a decent guy. He deserved better.

    This isn't to sound insensitive to a grieving person, but as much of a drama queen as his other half was on the show, I can only imagine his emotional state now.
