Survivor Samoa Episode 6 Tribal Council



Tribal Council starts about 2 minutes into the video. This is once again a great study in body language and reading people.

There are roughly ten items I could talk about in the first 8 seconds; I choose the fear expression and adam's apple jump from John as he leans forward- eyes wide open and lips pulled back.

Watch as people exhale, most had been holding their breath, and watch their throats to see them swallow and their adam's apples moves, they are experiencing stress.

We go a couple of minutes seeing sadness, frustration, and defeat and several head shakes, then BAM, at 5:51 we are rewarded with the microexpression of ANGER, her eyes are first wide open, then a split second later the eye lids tighten.

At 6:47 we see surprise, jaw and eyes wide open.

At 7:27 Erik becomes dominant and watch the finger pointing towards the other tribe. He may of alienated himself for when the tribes merge. Pointing a finger at another is the most aggressive gestures a person can do, and people absolutely hate it when someone points at them in this manner.◦
