COME HELL AND HIGH WATER...

"SPECIAL FORCES: WORLD'S TOUGHEST TEST" RETURNS FOR SEASON THREE WITH AN EPIC, EDGE-OF-YOUR-SEAT FIVE-WEEK EVENT FEATURING 2-HOUR MEGA EPISODES PREMIERING WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 8

The 16 Celebrity Recruits Entering Training Are Nathan Adrian, Stephen Baldwin, Alana Blanchard, Landon Donovan, Carey Hart, Brody Jenner, Marion Jones, Ali Manno, Cam Newton, Kayla Nicole, Kyla Pratt, Denise Richards, Christy Carlson Romano, Trista Sutter, Golden Tate and Jordyn Wieber

The third season of FOX's ultimate celebrity social experiment, Special Forces: World's Toughest Test, returns for a special five-week event starting Wednesday, January 8 (8:00-10:00PM ET/PT). Each week, the two-hour super charged episodes will feature household names enduring some of the harshest, most grueling challenges from the playbook of the actual Special Forces selection process.

This time around, the recruits will be training in Wales, the home of British Special Forces Selection, and will endure the harsh reality of ocean warfare. The recruits must learn the art of getting comfortable with being uncomfortable as they are faced with training challenges across the country's vast terrain of both land and sea, including a high pressure hostage rescue, a treacherous ladder crossing between steep cliffs nearly 100 ft above the sea, a boat dunk drill where they will be submerged into the frigid ocean and tasked with performing essential survival duties, a surf immersion where they will have to control their panic in an exercise that takes them to the brink of drowning, and much more. In this experiment, there are no votes and no eliminations - just survival. These celebrities, who are so used to being in the spotlight, will quickly learn the meaning of "no guts, no glory" - and no glam.

Selection for the Special Forces is a test unlike any other. Sixteen celebrities from all genres and walks of life, will take on, and try to survive, demanding training exercises led by Directing Staff (DS) agents Rudy Reyes, Mark "Billy" Billingham, Jason "Foxy" Fox and Jovon "Q" Quarles, an elite team of ex-special forces operatives.

In this unique series, the only way for these recruits to leave is to give up on their own accord, through failure or potential injury, or by force from the DS. Special Forces: World's Toughest Test is the ultimate test of physical, mental and emotional resilience - revealing these celebrities' deepest and truest character. Who will survive, who will fail? Special Forces: World's Toughest Test is produced by Minnow Films. Becky Clarke, Liam Humphreys and Alicia Kerr serve as Executive Producers.

Meet the 16 celebrity recruits joining Special Forces:

Olympic Swimming Gold Medalist Nathan Adrian

Pro-Surfer and Model Alana Blanchard
