Brandi Glanville Withdrawn From Special Forces After Painful Injury

Collin Gosselin Reveals His Dad's Reaction to Him Joining Special ForcesBrandi Glanville’s Special Forces journey came to a crashing halt—literally. Just 14 hours into season five of the intense competition series, the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills alum was medically withdrawn after executing a botched helicopter jump. While Glanville executed the beginning of the backwards jump cleanly, she entered the water face-first. As she swam back to the dock, she said, “It’s my sternum—I can’t. My sternum is, like, f--king cracked.” After reaching the waiting crew, one of the Directing Staff told the 53-year-old, “You over-rotated and then smashed yourself. That was a fail,” after which a medic announced, “She’s not gonna go on.” An announcement from the show’s narrator then confirmed Glanville had been “medically withdrawn” from the series. Looking back, Glanville says she wasn’t exactly sure where to position her head before making the backwards jump. “I felt my head crash into the water and I thought that was it—it was like a baseball bat to my head,” she told Entertainment Weekly in an interview published Sept. 25. “And then all of a sudden my full body slams into the water and I’m like, ‘Ugh.’"She added, "I was trying to do a thumbs up and then I went thumbs down and I couldn’t swim because everything hurt.” She also said the implications of her injuries—which consisted of a bruised sternum, concussion, perforated eardrum and cracked rib—became immediately clear to her. Pete Dadds/Fox“I knew I wasn’t staying. My left boob was under my armpit!” she explained. “My head was spinning and I felt like I was going to throw up—but then I saw the camera and I’m like, ‘You are not getting that from me.’ I sat down and everyone kept patting me on the back like, ‘Get up, come on.’ I’m like, ‘Oh, don’t touch me.’ I was done.” According to Glanville, who received new breast implants in February prior to filming, she still “has to get her boob fixed.” As for what drew the former Real Housewife to the physical challenge, it came down to the health challenges she’s navigate in recent years. “I am here to prove I’m more than just—I was going to say pretty face, but that went away,” she said during a confessional on the Sept. 24 premiere. “For three years, I’ve been very sick. I had 20-year-old breast implants and it turns out I had silicone poisoning. I’m lucky to be here and if I can get through those three years, I can get through anything.” And though she’s disappointed to have been sent home, having told her and ex Eddie Cibrian’s two kids Mason, 23, and Jake, 19, she wouldn’t be the first, she’s still proud of the effort she made. “I feel kind of like a badass because my two boys,” she told EW. “They’re like, ‘We would never do that. Are you really going to do it?’ I’m like, ‘I’m going to try or I’ll just die.’ One of the two!” As for those celebrities still in the competition, read on.
