Will is known for being pranked by talk show host Jay Leno at a gas station, with the 41-year-old singing Livin' On a Prayer by Bon Jovi. Living in Sherman Oaks, Calif., Will will be competing on the new season of CBS's Survivor as part of the "no collar" tribe, competing against the "white collar" tribe and the "blue collar" tribe.
He says in his CBS bio that his personal claim to fame is not necessarily his YouTube success, but "being a husband and a father."

A man of faith, Will says that God is his biggest inspiration in life, in addition to "my wife and daughter - for always believing and trusting in me and my parents for being great role models."
Will seems to be a fan of Survivor as he lists Survivor: Fiji winner Earl Cole as the contestant he is most like. This is actually a deep cut as most new players like the most well known contestants like John Cochran or Parvati Shallow, suggesting that Will may be a big fan of the show.
Will thinks he will be able to "survive" Survivor because "I have great people skills and I am a team player."
As far as winning the game, he says that nobody will outplay his social game out on the island.
Survivor: Worlds Apart is slated to begin on Wednesday, Feb. 25 at 8 p.m. ET/PT on CBS.
