Stephen Baldwin<\/strong><\/a>\u2019s stint on Special Forces<\/em><\/a> was short but memorable \u2014 and we\u2019re not just talking about his skinny black headband.<\/p>\n

Hailey Bieber<\/strong><\/a>\u2019s 58-year-old dad was the first star to leave during the Wednesday, January 8, premiere of the Fox show, which brings together celebrities from all genres attempting to pass training exercises led by a team of ex-Special Forces operatives<\/a>. Season 3 takes place in North Wales and features Stephen, Bachelor Nation\u2019s Trista Sutter <\/strong>and Ali Fedotowsky<\/strong>, Brody Jenner, Denise Richards<\/strong> and more.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m the youngest Baldwin brother. I\u2019m a thespian,\u201d Stephen told the cameras. \u201cI\u2019ve trained twice with military technical advisers. Am I a Special Forces guy? No, but I\u2019ve played one on TV.\u201d<\/p>\n

For the first task, the 16 celebrities had to jump from a speeding boat to a speeding helicopter and climb into the helicopter \u2014 and Stephen was actually one of the eight cast members who was able to complete the challenge. Before the end of the episode, however, the actor worried that he was injured and requested a medical consultation with the on-duty doctor.<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\tSpecial Forces: World\u2019s Toughest Test is gearing up for an even more intense season come January 2025. Season 3 of the Fox reality series returns on Wednesday, January 8, with 16 new recruits including Stephen Baldwin, Denise Richards, former NFL star Cam Newton and two former Bachelorettes, Trista Sutter and Ali Fedotowsky. \u201cThere\u2019s a famous [\u2026]\t\t<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\u201cI smashed my meniscus on the helicopter today and my back is in knots and I can\u2019t turn my head past there,\u201d Stephen said before the doctor asked if he wanted him to look at his knee.<\/p>\n

Things subsequently take a bit of a weird turn as Stephen becomes hostile. \u201cIt really, at this point, doesn\u2019t matter,\u201d Stephen said before asking the doctor, \u201cAre you being paid to do this?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m curious \u2014 if right after this gig you had another one that paid you 10 times what they are paying you know, would you do it?\u201d he continued. When the doctor replied that he wasn\u2019t sure \u201cwhere this conversation is going\u201d as he thought Stephen wanted a medical consultation, Stephen declared that he had a \u201cdecision to make.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cOK, what\u2019s your decision?\u201d the doctor asked.<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\tStephen Baldwin is one proud grandpa. The actor, 58, gushed about daughter Hailey Bieber and her son, Jack Blues, 3 months, ahead of his appearance on Special Forces: World\u2019s Toughest Test. \u201cHe\u2019s grown like a weed. Actually, he looks like a little plump potato,\u201d Baldwin told TooFab in an interview published Monday, December 16. \u201cHe\u2019s [\u2026]\t\t<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\u201cI have a gig right after this.The one condition for that gig is that I not get injured. It\u2019s not worth it to me. It\u2019s not worth it to have to go into a hospital for a couple of weeks,\u201d Stephen said.<\/p>\n

When the doctor asked if Stephen was aware of the type of tasks on the show, he responded, \u201cYes, but I didn\u2019t know I would definitely get injured.\u201d Stephen then appeared to get heated and spoke louder, repeating twice: \u201cI cannot get injured.\u201d<\/p>\n

When the doc filled in the \u201cstaff\u201d \u2014 a.k.a. the ex-Special Forces operatives who lead the show \u2014 they said they believed Stephen was looking for \u201can excuse\u201d and subsequently dismissed him from the show, saying: \u201cNo. 5, you failed this course and you failed yourself. Go.\u201d<\/p>\n
