Survivor's James Clement, Heroes vs. Villains meant no more Mr. Nice Guy in this week. The Villains blindsided Tyson Apostol in a very difficult Tribal Council, but for the Heroes, the selection was clearer because James Clement was playing injured. This morning, ET speaks to James to find out how he is doing after hurting his knee during a confront and requiring medical notice.
ET said how are you doing? Can you remember and talk about your injury?
James: I just dragged my ACL and my meniscus. I had to get operation right after the show, but amazing didn't cure right and I have to get operation again. but now I am okay, but they have to go back in there and fix something and figure out why it is not stand-in right.

James: really, yeah, they kept me for myself because I didn't want to go home. I most likely would have run on the beach to show that I could run, and they perhaps would have kept me just about longer and I would have been messed up more. They helped me out. There's no telling what I would have messed up if I had stayed.
