It doesn’t get any easier as the recruits—a group of singers, former athletes, and B-list celebrities—try to endure the rigorous boot camp practice sessions that actual army and special forces operatives participate in. Special Forces: World’s Toughest Test presents mental and physical obstacles to overcome.
If a participant feels that they are biting off more than they can chew, they have the option to withdraw. As of this past week, there are seven recruits left, and in addition to the drill sergeant’s stern rhetoric, they have been physically mistreated due to inclement weather and terrain.
Nevertheless, they are dedicated to exploring, inventing, and discovering what’s deep within them to get past their anxieties and handle the physical strain to determine who wins.
Recap
A survival exercise in a helicopter crash that involves going underwater in freezing conditions. Putting on aggression when trying to subdue someone else, then quickly shutting it off, pretending to be terminally ill, and composing a letter to loved ones.
The difficulties that Waukesha native and “Bachelor” series star Nick Viall and his other famous recruits faced were as follows on Monday night’s episode of Fox’s “Special Forces.”
According to Fox, celebrities battle the harsh conditions of New Zealand winters while taking on “grueling challenges from the playbook of the actual Special Forces selection process” in the show. The trainees are guided through the rigorous training exercises by the Directing Staff, an elite group of former Special Forces operators.
There were seven recruits left at the beginning of Day 6. That figure would drop to six before the end of the day. In the show, stars face “grueling challenges from the playbook of the actual Special Forces selection process” in addition to the severe winters of New Zealand, according to Fox.
The Directing Staff, an elite cadre of former Special Forces operators, leads the cadets through the demanding training exercises. At the start of Day 6, there were seven remaining recruits. And before the end of the day, that number would fall to six.
They lowered the chopper into the water. The trainees attempted to take a deep breath to hold just before they submerged. The trainees were instructed to stay underwater for 15 seconds after being immersed.
The recruit was required to remove an onboard life jacket and unbuckle their safety belt after being touched on the shoulder by a DS agent. They might then go back to the water’s surface.
A DS agent observed Viall being lowered and commented, “He’s panicking in there.” Viall, though, would be among the five recruits to succeed on the exam.
Erin Jackson, the Olympic speed skater, lost her nerve and couldn’t complete the task. Additionally, media star Jack Osbourne, who has multiple sclerosis, was not able to complete the challenge because he was being monitored by a doctor for a rapid heartbeat.
Preview
The Directing Staff pushes the recruits to the brink of physical, mental, and emotional exhaustion as the last round of selection draws near, asking them to demonstrate their sincere desire to pass. In the brand-new “Grit” episode of Special Forces: World’s Toughest Test, the recruits are brought to a remote mountain range where they must pull sleds through two miles of treacherous terrain, and then later flee an invasion from enemy hunters before they face their final day of selection.
