The newest reality show kicking off 2023 in the "toughest" of ways is none other than Fox's Special Forces: World’s Toughest Test. The series follows 16 celebrities as they try their best to survive grueling training at the hands of an "elite team of ex-special forces operatives." Despite several of the cast members being world-class athletes and seemingly used to training for their respective sports, it appears that none of the celebrities are quite ready to embrace the journey that lies ahead of them.
There is no voting out or last place finishes in Special Forces: World's Toughest Test. Instead, participants leave the show only when they have decided they've had enough.
So just who was bold enough to participate in the inaugural season of the series? And who is still toughing it out with the training operatives? Take a look and meet the Special Forces: World's Toughest Test cast and see who has left the show.
