Thorvald Nyquist considers himself undeservedly well portrayed in The Farm

–

Burst in tears

Three nails in the duel, Bjøringsøy was good in the lead.

– He was probably half or one in front of me, so I had to give the ban gas. And I took him pretty well back towards the end. When he started on his last I had my last blow on my penultimate. It was very smooth, he shouted “done” when I was about to take my last blow, says the repatriated “Farmen” participant.

Afterwards, the emotions completely took over, he admits.

– Yes, I was very emotional. I think we took ten to fifteen recordings with Mads (Hansen, 37, host, journ. Note) before we found something that could be used. I cried and cried. I’m an emotional person, I cry for nothing, the 51-year-old admits.

He continues:

– I cried because I was relieved and happy because I was going home to my family, not because I smoked out. I thought it was awkward to lose the match, but coming home to my family I had really thought about from week one. It had built up and everything came out when I suddenly went out the gate on the farm and was going home to my wife and children.

Sentenced to 21 days in prison

– Lucky

On social media, Nyquist has clearly been a big favorite among many viewers. He appears to be very calm and controlled, hardworking and is not part of an alliance, sabotage or theft from the community. At the same time, Nyquist himself now comes with a somewhat surprising assessment of his own and others’ behavior on the TV screen.

– I see how many of the other participants are portrayed. And that they are subsequently met by many tough comments. It bothers me and is undeserved. At the same time, I get out of the program very well – even if some people think I’m a bit boring. But I live well with that, it suits me well, because I do not want to be a bajas either, he says with a smile.

The “farm” participant does not hide that he has come out well from the TV autumn.

– I have been undeservedly well presented, I have been lucky compared to many others. I am an ordinary person, with many mistakes and have probably irritated everyone I and in a way. What the others take on is that they are in a game. Or it’s cut a little longer. But everyone is basically incredibly good people.

– Was depressed for a long time

Will not be a «dust»

– So why have you been so well presented, do you think?

– It is about two things, Nyquist thinks. The first is that I have a personality that fits well as a participant in such a game. The fact that I am patient and listen before I say anything, and do not pick up on small things, even though it may be a little annoying, looks good. But in other settings this can be experienced passively or that one is wary of conflict.

– The other reason is probably that I decided before I went in that I should breathe extra with my stomach in there and enjoy the experience. I was prepared for the fact that the casting had landed on people who took up a lot of space, and had even chosen to join a game and not a holiday stay. There were actually less conflicts and riots than I was prepared for.

The “farm” participant emphasizes that he joined the program for other reasons than many others.

– I wanted to feel tired, hungry and longing. Just going hungry has been an experience. It has been even more fun to see that others are hungry, says Nyquist, who believes that it is not just his job as a lawyer that has made him so “careful” on the farm.
