Those who have watched Survivor from the beginning will never forget Susan Hawk’s “rats and snakes” speech in the first season’s finale.

The Wisconsin truck driver did not hold back when she expressed her dislike for fellow castaway Kelly Wiglesworth in the infamous speech. Hawk said, “If I were ever to pass you along in life again, and you were laying there dying of thirst, I would not give you a drink of water. I would let the vultures take you and do whatever they want with you with no ill regrets.”
