Jud “Fabio” Birza was crowned the winner of Survivor: Nicaragua over the weekend and was presented with his grand prize of $1 million on The Early Show this morning!

The goofy 21-year-old model-student from Los Angeles trumphed singer-jackman Chase Rice from Fairview, NC, 24, and Matthew “Sash” Lenahan, a 30-year-old real estate broker from New York City to take home the CBS reality competition’s grand prize Sunday. He earned five votes from the nine-person jury of dismissed contestants.

“From how I felt down in Nicaragua, going through all the angles or whatever, I really thought I was going to win by a little more. It’s all good, dude. I would rather it be super close. Chase felt good about it. As you could see, I was sweating. My armpits were going crazy. I was nervous.”

At the end of the finale, host Jeff Probst revealed a new twist for the upcoming season of Survivor. Redemption Island will feature booted contestants living together and dueling for a chance to return in the game.

Survivor: Redemption Island is scheduled to premiere Feb. 16.
