To be fair, this time there&#8217;s actual medical documentation, so we&#8217;re calling it progress.<\/p>\n<p class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\">During day three&#8217;s simulated war zone challenge, Jussie started coughing like a &#8217;90s dial-up modem. Some claim he was coughing worse than someone caught in a lie. His lungs reportedly sounded &#8220;horrendous&#8221;\u2014which, coincidentally, is how his 2019 testimony sounded to basically everyone. Costars noticed him struggling, with Jessie James Decker literally having to suggest, &#8220;Honey, if you need the medic, <em>go to the medic<\/em>&#8220;\u2014presumably because asking for help voluntarily isn&#8217;t his strong suit.<\/p>\n<p class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\">Dr. Andy Brown diagnosed an allergic reaction to desert dust and pulled Jussie&#8217;s armband faster than Chicago PD pulled his phone records. In a tearful confessional, Jussie insisted &#8220;there&#8217;s a fight in me&#8221; and that he&#8217;s &#8220;not a quitter&#8221;\u2014statements we&#8217;ll file under &#8220;things that sound dramatic but lack supporting evidence.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\">His sister had told him he didn&#8217;t need to prove anything, which is ironic since proving things hasn&#8217;t exactly been his forte. But credit where it&#8217;s due: at least this medical emergency has witnesses, documentation, and a doctor who isn&#8217;t Jussie&#8217;s personal friend.<\/p>\n<p class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\">So there you have it\u2014taken down by angry sand particles. Sometimes the universe has a sense of humor.<\/p>\n<p class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\"><em>Special Forces airs Thursdays on Fox, where reality is slightly more verifiable.<\/em><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.eonline.com\/news\/1423555\/jussie-smollett-exits-special-forces-over-medical-issue\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Jussie Smollett Removed From Special Forces: World&#8217;s Toughest Test Over Medical Issue<\/strong><\/a><br \/>\n<em>Empire alum Jussie Smollett was forced to exit season four of Fox&#8217;s Special Forces: World&#8217;s Toughest early after an allergic reaction led to a breathing problem.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>By Brett M Malec Oct 09, 2025<\/p>\n<p>Another recruit has bit the dust\u2014quit literally.<\/p>\n<p>Jussie Smollett became the fourth celebrity to drop out of season four of Special Forces: World&#8217;s Toughest Test during the Fox reality competition series&#8217; Oct. 9 episode.<\/p>\n<p>For their day three challenge, the stars were dropped into a simulated war zone and tasked with locating and extracting &#8220;fallen comrades&#8221; while navigating tough terrain, obstacles and fake explosions in the brutal heat of the Moroccan desert.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Jussie Smollett&#8217;s Desert Dreams Turn to Dust (Literally This Time)&#8230; In a plot twist nobody saw &hellip; <a title=\"Jussie Smollett Booted from Special Forces Reality TV\" class=\"hm-read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/?p=174983\"><span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Jussie Smollett Booted from Special Forces Reality TV<\/span>Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":663,"featured_media":174985,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[209,630],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-174983","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-teh-stoopid","category-green-beret"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/174983","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/663"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=174983"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/174983\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/174985"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=174983"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=174983"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=174983"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
