Sister Wives Star Kody Brown Faces Grueling Challenges on Special Forces
3 Oct
Summary
- Kody Brown struggles to cross a ladder between buildings
- Contestants face underwater helicopter escape test, boxing matches
- Teresa Giudice voluntarily withdraws, Eva Marcille eliminated

On October 2, 2025, viewers of the reality show Special Forces were given a glimpse of the intense challenges ahead. One of the new tasks involved contestants having to walk on a ladder to cross from one building to another, which proved particularly difficult for Kody Brown, the star of the reality series Sister Wives.
The Directing Staff (DS) instructors did not make it easy for the contestants, with one yelling at Kody, "Imagine it is one of your wives over here," as he struggled to get across. Kody has been spiritually married to wife Robyn Brown since 2010, in addition to his legal marriages to Meri, Janelle, and Christine Brown.
The episode also featured other grueling challenges, including a test where contestants had to hold their breath for 20 seconds before exiting a submerged helicopter. Most of the recruits failed this test, including Jussie Smollett. Meanwhile, Eva Marcille struggled the most and was ultimately eliminated.
The episode ended with a surprising development, as Teresa Giudice chose to voluntarily withdraw from the competition, visibly affecting her daughter Gia. The DS, however, saw this as an opportunity for Gia to challenge herself without worrying about Teresa.
