Brit Ben Southall got the name of the island wrong in his blog on Day 2




oops! Ben Southall

Southall, who outsmarted his opponents to become caretaker of an island on the Great Barrier Reef for six months, made the unfortunate gaffe while trying to promote the delights of his temporary home.

The mistake was corrected after an hour, but the damage was done after several bloggers spotted his mistake.
