Five celebrities entered the finale of Special Forces: World’s Toughest Test, but only two cmae out on top. Bravo star Gia Giudice won Season 4 of the competition show alongside Olympic athlete Shawn Johnson. They outlasted NFL players, a polygamist, and a bunch of other celebs. Here’s how it all went down.
Gia Giudice beat out the likes of Kody Brown to win Special Forces
After Gia’s mom, Teresa Giudice, went home in Episode 2, Bravo fans weren’t sure if Gia could last alone. However, she and Shawn entered the finale alongside Shawn’s husband, Andrew East, Barstool Sports host Brianna “Chickenfry” LaPaglia, and Sister Wives star Kody Brown.
During the final test, the recruits were subjected to an “interrogation” after being “captured” by enemy forces. The goal? Challenge their mental and psychological strength and get them to crack.
DS Jason “Foxy” Fox said, “The interrogators’ mission is to extract valuable information. The recruits, their mission is to keep that information to themselves, but at the same time, build rapport. It’s a very difficult game to play.”
To get the contestants to crack under pressure, the interrogators resorted to physical punishment. They basically gave them a lightweight version of torture by pouring buckets of water on their heads and dunking them in water, all while grilling them with tough questions.
One by one, the celebs folded under pressure. One DS called Andrew “abysmal” in the challenge. Kody “shut down,” and Brianna cracked. Gia and Shawn were the only two to stick to their guns and withstand the mock torture treatment.
With that challenge completed, the trainers declared Gia and Shawn as the winners. Of course, that comes with no cash, no trophy, or any other sort of accolades. They endured all of this for bragging rights, but they couldn’t be happier.
“Shawn and I are going to be bonded for life,” Gia said after the win.”We completed selection. I truly didn’t think I was going to be able to do it. I knew I had to persevere and push through for myself and my family, and also, most importantly, the DS because they really believed in me.”
Special Forces: World’s Toughest Test is streaming on Hulu and Disney+.
