Watch: Brandi Glanville Medically Withdrawn From ‘Special Forces’ After Painful Injury
Three celebs are done pushing themselves to the limit.
The second episode of Special Forces: World’s Toughest Testseason five concluded with multiple contestants leaving after just two days on the quasi-military training competition.
The Oct. 1 episode began with LeSean McCoy flushing his victory down the toilet after refusing to relieve himself in the outdoor bathroom.
“I won’t s–t for three days, dude, or eight days,” he told his fellow contestants. “I’m not ready for all this. I’m not taking no s–t out here.”
The NFL player—who was the second person to leave the show after Brandi Glanville‘s exit in episode one—told directing staff instructor Jason Fox that he was throwing a flag on the play after deciding he was “cool” and therefore wasn’t “going to be s–ting outside and all that.”
Later on, the 13 remaining competitors had to climb down a 300-foot ladder above a jungle to pick up a 17 lb. supply bag and bring the goods up within five minutes. However, George Santos wasn’t interested in dragging on his time, so he voluntarily withdrew.
“I can’t do this, Staff,” he said while looking at the course. “I can’t put any weight on this leg. My foot is going numb, my sciatica’s pinching. It’s just, I can’t do it. I understand what you think, sir.
“I’ve reached my physical limit,” the disgraced politician—who pleaded guilty to wire fraud and identity theft charges in April 2025—continued while crying. “My body’s telling me to stop, and I have to listen to it before I injure myself further. Staff, I’m sorry, I’m gonna VW.”
Instructor Billy Billingham was unimpressed with Santos’ decision, ordering him to return his armband.
“Waste of space,” he said. “You’ve had a great opportunity. All you’ve done is talk yourself out of it. You’ve gone back to who you really were. No character. No balls. You are pathetic.”

Billingham told Santos, after giving him a second chance the first episode, that “a leopard don’t change its spots.”
Ruby Rose‘s time also came to an end during the second challenge, where contestants had to complete an assault course in pairs. Although she initially finished the ladder challenge, she hit her head on the car door and heard a “crunch” in her neck. A panicked Rose recalled the 2019 injury she sustained while performing stunts for CW’s Batwoman.
“Sixteen days into the pilot, on the most heavy stunt day of all, I broke my neck,” she said during a confessional. “I almost severed my spinal cord.”
Although she initially decided to stay, she tapped out before she and Hannah Stocking were set to complete the paired course, admitting to Fox, “I just don’t know if I can do it.”

“It’s just way harder than I thought it would be,” the 40-year-old said. “I don’t know that my body is like what it used to be, and I don’t know that I can bounce back and keep going. I can’t do it.”
The instructor accepted the armband and left the actress with some advice.
“Look, stop beating yourself up,” Fox added. “Take it easy.”
