Dan Gheesling was the winner of Big Brother 10, being the first person ever to receive all seven votes from the jury. Dan was a member of The Renegades alliance. To be sure he was cast, Dan exaggerated his views, even claiming he'd move to Canada if a woman ever became President. Dan returned in Big Brother 14 as part of the coaches twist along with past players Janelle Pierzina, Britney Haynes, and Mike "Boogie" Malin. Dan was the last of the four coaches remaining in the game, and he ultimately reached the Final 2 for the second time, losing in a 6-1 vote to Ian Terry. He has never had a vote cast against him. In two appearances, he finished 1st and 2nd, which is the best result in two appearances in the history of the game. He is widely regarded as one of the best players of all time along with Will Kirby.
