``Survivor'' places 16 ordinary people in remote regions of the world to live off the land and fend for themselves, while simultaneously competing in a series of challenges and competitions. In each episode, one person is voted off the island by the others, with the last remaining ``Survivor'' winning the grand prize of one million dollars.

After last season, Yau-Man talked about his Survivor experience with Network World and talked about how IT skills translated to his success on the show. He said: "The only thing I took is the ability to analyze and problem solve. In the IT field, especially in network infrastructure and keeping the network running, when there are problems, analytical and organizational skills are important. When you play a game like Survivor, which is strategic, every time you encounter a challenge, it helps to analyze the situation and try to go at it not by brute force - because I can not compete against those young guys - but to figure out the optimum way to solve the problem."
