Abstract
In this paper we argue that biological fitness is a multi-objective concept hence the statement "fittest" is inappropriate. The following statement is proposed "Survival is mostly for those with non-dominated fitness". Also we use some TV games to show that under the following conditions: i) There are no dominant players. ii) At each time step successful players may eliminate some of their less successful competitors, Then the ultimate winner may not be the fittest (but close).
