Special Forces: World's Toughest Test

On last week’s episode of Special Forces: World’s Toughest Test, we saw JoJo Siwa toss Tom Sandoval over her shoulder like a rag-doll and carry him through the wintery terrain of the New Zealand mountains until they reached their base. And this week, the antics only continue as the Dance Moms alum is dubbed the “problem child” for trying to teach the Vanderpump Rules star how to tap dance.

Siwa’s silly moment comes amid a grueling task, in which the recruits must plunge into freezing water while strapped into a helicopter, hold their breath for 15 seconds, unbuckle, then grab the lifejacket and swim to the surface.

Ahead of Siwa’s turn, Sandoval — who had just passed the test — complains about his cold toes, prompting the dancer to show him a few moves to help warm up.

“In tap dance, a shuffle. You go: shuffle, shuffle,” she says while giving a demonstration. “That will warm your foot up. Shuffle, toe, heel, shuffle, toe, heel, shuffle, toe, heel.”

Meanwhile, the directing staff (DS) are unsurprisingly infuriated by Siwa’s lighthearted take on the task.

“No. 3. You need to take this shit seriously!” one yells out. “We’re too late in the course for you to go on a mental vacation! Alright? Life and limb is at stake out here in this freaking water!”

The YouTube personality explains that she’s able to “put on a front” when she’s “anxious” thanks to her background as a “performer and entertainer.” When she’s called in for a meeting with the DS about her goofy side, she reveals that she’s actually a “very insecure person.”

“Growing up in front of the internet, it’s the hardest thing. Everything gets judged,” Siwa says. “People told me I had a receding hairline. They don’t know that I have a stress rash and that’s why I’m balding right here. A 12-year-old shouldn’t have a stress rash on their head that makes them bald, but I did.”

The episode is filled with other emotional moments, including Tyler Cameron breaking down about his mother’s heartbreaking passing. Plus, the remaining recruits also forced to write death letters to their families, leaving not one dry eye in the house.

Special Forces: World’s Toughest Test airs on Monday nights at 9/8c on Fox.
