Special Forces: World's Toughest Test is an American reality quasi-military training television series that premiered on Fox on January 4, 2023. It is an adaptation of the British reality series SAS: Who Dares Wins and reuses Directing Staff (DS) instructors from that series.

Format

Like the original British series, Special Forces: World's Toughest Test pits contestants against harsh environments all around the world in a shortened training course that is designed to replicate a number of elements of the actual United States Special Forces selection course, which is notoriously difficult and has claimed the lives of people who have participated in it. The show's Directing Staff take the recruits through hostile and unforgiving warfare environments, while testing their mental and physical ability through a series of tests. Unlike many reality competition series, there are no formal elimination points; instead, contestants may voluntarily withdraw or be medically withdrawn at any point prior to completion. They may also be disqualified for failing to complete specific steps of the course. In the British series, recruits may be culled for rule violations, though this is yet to be seen in the American series.

Production

On September 7, 2022, it was announced that Fox had ordered the series, originally titled Special Forces: The Ultimate Test, with Sophie Leonard, Alicia Kerr and Becky Clarke as the executive producers.{{cite press release|url=http://www.thefutoncritic.com/news/2022/09/07/fox-enlists-special-forces-the-ultimate-test-wt-with-all-star-celebrity-contestants-to-debut-january-2023-346111/20220907fox01/|title=FOX Enlists "Special Forces: The Ultimate Test (wt)," with All-Star Celebrity Contestants, to Debut January 2023|publisher=Fox|via=The Futon Critic|date=September 7, 2022|access-date=February 27, 2023}}{{cite web|url=https://deadline.com/2020/11/fox-game-of-talents-wayne-brady-fremantle-1234618312/|title=Special Forces: The Ultimate Test: Anthony Scaramucci, Jamie Lynn Spears & Mel B Lined Up For Fox Endurance Series|work=Deadline Hollywood|author=Jesse Whittock
