Special Forces: World’s Toughest Test Season 5 Premiere
Another season of intense reality TV is set to premiere on Thursday, September 24, with Season 5 of Special Forces: World’s Toughest Test on FOX. The show challenges a group of celebrity “recruits” through grueling training courses that mimic the rigorous training of the United States Special Forces.
The Directing Staff (DS) puts the celebrity contestants through tough physical and mental challenges. At the end of the training, those who don’t voluntarily withdraw, medically withdraw, or get disqualified successfully “pass” the training—making it a true test of endurance and mental toughness.
