Not only did ‘Survivor‘ season 44 bring extra excitement, thrills, and action, but it also introduced us to several interesting contestants, including Bronx native Danny Massa. Although Danny was enthusiastic about competing on the popular reality show, he claimed he was terrified about what lay ahead. Still, he was determined not to give up and was confident that the skills he had gained throughout his life would give him an advantage over others. Well, with fans now eager to learn more about Danny Massa, here’s everything we know about him!

Danny Massa: Growing Up in a Loving Family in the Bronx

Originally from the Bronx, New York, Danny Massa was 32 years old at the time of filming. The reality star had a wonderful childhood as he grew up in a loving and close-knit family. However, his half-sister’s younger years were pretty rough, as Danny mentioned how his mother had her when she was just eighteen years old. Besides, Danny’s mother was living with her physically abusive husband at that time, although she gathered her courage and left him soon after.

While speaking about his family, Danny hailed his mother as his biggest inspiration as she was a single parent to his half-sister until she met Danny’s father about 16 years later. To this day, Danny shares a close relationship with his parents, but his bond with his half-sister is special. Although she married and had two children, her husband passed away soon after, and Danny moved in with the family.

You would be surprised to know that Danny was introduced to ‘Survivor’ by his half-sister’s kids, who even taught him the basics of the show. Since then, they have all been diehard fans, and once Danny got an opportunity to compete, his loved ones encouraged him to follow his dreams. The Bronx native believes that ‘Survivor’ is one such show that puts you out of your comfort zone, but he is confident that his ability to adapt to situations will help him shine.

Danny Massa’s Profession

Although Danny hasn’t talked much about his professional life, sources mention that he is currently working as a firefighter for the New York City Fire Department. Interestingly, Danny has always been a fan of an active lifestyle and, to this day, shares a passion for martial arts. Besides, he loves encouraging others to overcome their fears and become a better version of themselves, which makes him quite an effective trainer.

Therefore, while Danny has been involved in several sports, including triathlon, boxing, and jiu-jitsu, he currently works as a Breathwork & Mindset Coach and also runs several online campaigns as a social media influencer. Additionally, he is a certified instructor for the Wim Hof Method and holds sessions in the United States and Canada.
