What Happened to Gus Kenworthy Special Forces Show?

In Fox's latest reality competition, Special Forces: World's Toughest Test, 16 celebrities are challenged to survive 10 days of real-life Special Ops exercises in the Jordanian desert. With former military personnel, known as the Directing Staff, overseeing the competition, the recruits are pushed to their limits both mentally and physically.

Former MLB star Mike Piazza withdraws from the competition on Day 8, citing physical exhaustion. However, Olympic freestyle skier Gus Kenworthy faces a more serious setback. During a challenge, he misplaces his numbered armband, and as a form of punishment, he endures an additional physical task. After completing the task, Gus begins to feel ill, experiencing a tight chest and violent vomiting.

Taken to the medical tent, Gus reports feeling like he is having an allergic reaction, and due to the severity of the situation, he is immediately withdrawn from the competition. With just four recruits remaining - Hannah Brown, Carli Lloyd, Dwight Howard, and Danny Amendola - the competition intensifies.

Don't miss out on new episodes of Special Forces: World's Toughest Test, airing Wednesdays at 9 p.m. EST on Fox.
