Reality TV star Adam Collard, best known for his appearance on Love Island, has emotionally revealed the moment he broke down in tears during the brutal challenges of Celebrity SAS: Who Dares Wins.
In a raw and honest confession, the fitness fanatic admitted to feeling like a 'complete failure' under the immense physical and psychological pressure exerted by the show's directorial staff (DS), led by the formidable Ant Middleton.
The Breaking Point
The incident unfolded during a particularly gruelling interrogation phase, a classic part of the SAS selection process designed to test recruits to their absolute limits. Collard described how the relentless questioning and intense environment finally caused his composure to shatter.
'I just remember sitting there and everything just hit me at once,' Collard recounted. 'The exhaustion, the pressure, the feeling that I wasn't measuring up. I just cracked.'
A Surprising Show of Vulnerability
Known for his confident and sometimes controversial persona on Love Island, this moment showed a completely different side to the 28-year-old Geordie. His display of vulnerability stands in stark contrast to the image he previously cultivated.
Despite the breakdown, Collard's journey on the show was not in vain. He spoke about the profound respect he gained for the special forces and the life-changing nature of the experience, which pushed him further than he ever thought possible.
The new series of Celebrity SAS: Who Dares Wins promises to be the most demanding yet, testing a new cohort of celebrities with its notoriously unforgiving tasks and psychological warfare.
