John "Falcon" Morris

John "Falcon" Morris is a contestant from Survivor: Peru - Temple Island.

Profile
Name (Age): John Morris (67)

Tribe Designation: Inti

Current Residence: Mobile, AL

Occupation: Air Force Veteran

Claim to Fame: Surviving many wars and the air force itself. I know how lucky and gifted I am to have this opportunity to come back home after all I've lived in service of this country. It definitively shaped me as a person and as a father, a husband and a man.

Inspiration in Life: When I was out there in the line of combat I always had three things in mind. God, family and my country. Those are the things I fight for. Now on Survivor I will be doing it differently, I will be fighting just for my family, and a little bit to myself as well, as I've wanted an experience like this for quite some time.

Hobbies: Spending time with my family, jogging early in the morning, listening to classical musical, learning.

Pet Peeves: Coming from a military background, I obviously have something against lack of discipline and team work and mentality. I know that on Survivor I will face many selfish people, but my main goal is to show them that you can only win big if you have a full team supporting you.

3 Words to Describe You: Sharp, Resilient, Faithful

SURVIVOR contestant you are most like: I haven't quite watched all of the season, but some people back at home have already compared me to Rudy, or Joe from the more recent seasons. I'm fine with that, but I wanna play this game like myself and show who the real Falcon is.

Reason for being on SURVIVOR: As I mentioned, I'm here as a new life experience for myself at the age of sixty-seven. After you've faced everything that I faced, Survivor could be quite life changing. I'm here to learn about new people, face new adversities and grow with them. Obviously if I come back home with the million my family would be very proud, and so would I.

Why do you think you will “survive” SURVIVOR?: I liked to say that there's nothing worse than being a veteran, living through PTSD. I'm thankful that I've won those battles, and I know it made me stronger. Now I'm looking forward to facing new struggles and also meeting other people's struggles, because we all have our own battles to face.

Why do you think you will be the Sole SURVIVOR?: I think my discipline, my team mentality and my effort in learning and becoming a better man will be enough to take me far. I would like to think that it will make me a winner, and if this world of Survivor is indeed fair...it will.
