Reality Star Medically Withdrawn From ‘Special Forces’ After Smashing Into Water During Helicopter Jump

The reality star was seen crying as she exited the show, saying she promised her children she wouldn't be the first to be eliminated.

Brandi Glanville has been the first person to be eliminated from Special Forces... and no, it wasn't because of a challenge.

As reported by People, the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills alum was one of 15 celebrities pitted against each other on the show. In case you aren't aware, Special Forces: World's Toughest Test pits contestants against each other in challenges inspired by Special Forces training.

And that's exactly what you think it is - incredibly gruelling. Some of the challenges include chemical gassing as well as clearing a "claustrophobic" underground bunker.

The first episode showed Granville explaining her trials and tribulations. In her first confessional, she said, "For three years, I've been very sick."

"I had 20-year-old breast implants and it turns out I had silicone poisoning. I'm lucky to be here, and if I can get through those three years, I can get through anything."

The reality star also explained how she had previously "let fear rule" her. "With my health issues, just leaving my house has been hard. I just want to jump back into life."

The Reality Star Failed the Helicopter


And then came the first challenge - a dive straight off a helicopter into a river... and the reality star certainly did jump back into life as she careened toward the river.

But it ended really painfully. In her words - "It's my sternum - I can't. My sternum, is, like, f****** cracked." The staff were predictably unfeeling, with one member of the Directing Staff explaining plainly, "You over-rotated and them smashed yourself. That was a fail."

"It's exhausting to be always bouncing back from something," she said in a confessional. "You keep getting tested and sometimes you can't get back up."

The show's narrator explained that she was "medically withdrawn from the episode". She was seen crying as she left the episode, saying, "I told my kids I wouldn't be the first one to leave."

This comes after the reality star has had other health problems in recent times. Most recently, she revealed to fans that she had a facial parasite, and was undergoing treatments to get it removed.

We hope that that helicopter drop wasn't too painful - and that she's recovering okay, both from the facial parasite, and the drop.
