Forget the glitz and glamour, this ain’t no red carpet. FOX’s Special Forces: World’s Toughest Test returns, dumping another batch of pampered celebrities into the unforgiving wilds of…Wales. Yes, the land of majestic castles and soothing accents also happens to be home to British Special Forces Selection, apparently. And in this week’s opening salvo of episodes, these celebs get a taste of ocean warfare training that’s less Baywatch and more, well, terrifying.
Season three finds our intrepid (or incredibly naive) famous faces facing challenges designed to break them, physically and mentally. No cushy eliminations here, folks. It’s sink or swim, literally, as they tackle simulated boat crashes and a full-on combat exercise. Because nothing says reality TV like near-drowning experiences, right?
Beyond the aquatic antics, there’s the small matter of hauling 500 pounds of supplies up a mountain. Just another casual Wednesday for these folks accustomed to catered meals and personal assistants. One can only imagine the internal monologues as they struggle, questioning their life choices, their agents, and possibly the very fabric of reality.
So, will any of these celebrities discover a hidden reservoir of grit? Or will they crack under the pressure, longing for the comforts of their Hollywood Hills mansions? Tune in to witness the potential breakdowns and maybe, just maybe, some unexpected triumphs. It airs Wednesday, January 15, at 8:00 PM on FOX.
