This season the recruits will “be faced with the harsh reality of winter warfare training on the mountains of New Zealand where the terrain and freezing temperatures are brutal and the tasks will feel like torture,” according to a press release from the network.
The challenges will include the ice breaker drill — during which the competitors will be submerged in a frozen lake to find their body temperature plummeting to near hypothermic levels — and attempting cross a treacherous ravine atop a 4700 ft snowcapped mountain peak. They will also attempt an “emergency escape out of a helicopter submerged deep in icy waters.”
The network promises “there are no votes, and no eliminations – just survival” on the second season of the series.
Ina teaserfor the upcoming season, Reid says, “people want to underestimate me [but] I’m a lot stronger then people think” while Sandoval is seen with a bloody nose as he says he wants “get punished.”
Sandoval most recently made headlines for his once-secret affair with costarRaquel Leviss. During the season 10Vanderpump Rulesreunion, Sanvodal and Leviss admitted they’re still in love — even after their public betrayal of Sandoval’s nine-year girlfriend,Ariana Madix.

Chrisley teased her stint on the show on last week’s episode of herUnlockedpodcast. She revealed that she was “recuperating from my trip that was outrageous and I did not get paid enough for the s— that I did.”
“I can’t talk about what exactly it was that I did, but let’s just say, the world is going to get to see me puking for a solid 2 minutes on national television. It’s not good,” Chrisley said, as she reiterated she “did not get paid enough for that.”
Chrisley also shared that when swimming on the trip — which her brotherChase, 27, teased was her weakest skill — it was “wintertime where I was and the water was ice-filled, so that’s brutal.” However, she fired back at him that “you would not have made it as far as me.”
Meanwhile, Chrisley has been taking care of her brotherGrayson, 17, and nieceChloe, 10, as their primary guardian after her parents Todd, 54, and Julie, 50, are serving acombined 19 years in prisonfor tax fraud. (They are currently in theprocess of appealing their case.)
