Tyson Zulu - Bio
SurvivorSA 8 logo  SA: Immunity Island bio

Official SurvivorSA: Immunity Island bio, from News24.com (5/2/21):

"Creative director and entrepreneur Tyson Zulu (24) from Johannesburg: 'I'm a super creative, a jack of all trades and a perfectionist to a fault. I love animals more than people,' says the Durban-born entrepreneur. 'Ten out of 10 times I'll always speak my mind and do what I feel.' He entered SurvivorSA as a learning experience. 'I want to be a big player in the film and TV industry and learning, first-hand, from the biggest show in the country is a massive opportunity,' he says."
