Janne Puhakka, 28, ex-ice hockey player

Janne has a fierce competitive drive and ability to withstand pressure, which has been honed to the extreme during his elite sports career. In his hockey career, he has had to hide his true identity, which could be an advantage if he ends up in the role of a fraud. Janne is basically a kind and benevolent person, who has game tactics already thought out - whatever the role.[1]
