All the Stars in the Competition – Hollywood Life

Special Forces: World’s Toughest Test is back for its most intense season yet — and Season 4 is already delivering shocking twists. This year’s cast features its first-ever family teams, including spouses Shawn Johnson East and Andrew East, plus mother-daughter duo Teresa Giudice and Gia Giudice. But even with built-in support systems, the brutal challenges are proving harder than ever.

Season 4, which premiered September 25, 2025, has already seen multiple high-profile exits. Randall Cobb unexpectedly quit just hours before the finish line, while Christie Pearce Rampone and Mark Estes were medically withdrawn after suffering serious injuries. Chanel Iman also departed after reaching her physical breaking point.
