**Days Lasted:** | 39

**Gregory "Greg" Barrett** is a contestant from *Survivor: Fiji*.

Greg was an extremely social player on *Fiji*, and he is best known for creating an extremely tight alliance with Logan Trush and making it to the Final Three together. At the start of the game on the all-male Namotu tribe, Greg knew it would be beneficial to make strong alliances from the start so that he wouldn't be seen as a huge threat due to his physical prowess. Because of Greg's strong relationships, he found out the plan to vote out Spencer Wasson from the Vomo tribe from Yasmin Elkader, and relayed the information to Spencer, building trust and keeping his ally in the game. Once at the merge, Greg strengthened his bond with Logan, and they even made a Final Two pact together. Unfortunately for them, their unbreakable bond nearly cost them the game on Day 27, when they were involved in a tie, but after the vote got deadlocked, they were both safe and didn't have to draw rocks. For the remainder of the game, Greg decided to use his status on the outs as being a potential number and going along with power players in the game. Greg's decision to "play from the bottom" revealed itself to be the right decision, as both him and Logan made it to the Final Three. At the Final Tribal Council, Greg was criticized for playing as a pair rather than for himself, but was praised for his extremely strong social game and connections, as well as his shift at the end of the game which got him to the bitter end. In the end, Greg was able to earn two jury votes and receive recognition from the jury, and finished as the second runner-up.
