A Twin Cities ER physician will be among the contestants in the 32nd season of "Survivor."
Peter Baggenstos, a 34-year-old doctor based at Methodist Hospital in St. Louis Park, is competing on an island in Cambodia along with 17 other castaways who are being divided into the following camps: Brains, Brawns and Beauty.
Baggenstos is in the Brains tribe -- although he looks handsome and fit enough to us.
The cast also includes a bounty hunter, a pro poker player, former NBA player Scot Pollard and evicted "Big Brother" roommate Caleb Reynolds.
The new season premieres Feb. 17.
