AFL legend Wayne Carey is labelled a “train wreck” by the DS (Directing Staff) in an all-new sneak peek of the upcoming season of SAS Australia, starting February on Channel 7 and 7plus.
During interrogation, Wayne admits to the DS his affair:
“I slept with a teammate’s wife. It’s haunted me for 20 years. My integrity will always be questioned.
“I’m not trying to prove anything to the public, it’s to myself,” Wayne says. “People can change, they evolve. Hopefully this can help me.”
The footy great turned commentator, nicknamed “The King”, is seen facing his fear of heights in the explosive new promo.
“My worst nightmare would be standing at the top of a mountain” he says, while shown scaling the cliff face of a thunderous 80-metre-high waterfall.
Wayne is one of 17 Aussie celebrities embarking on a life-changing experience – a gruelling series of physical and psychological tests from the rest SAS selection process.
These Aussie celebrities will be cut off from the outside world at a brand-new base in unforgiving jungle terrain, bordered by wild seas, dramatic cliff faces and rugged rocky outcrops.
There, they will eat, sleep and train together in punishing conditions, with no allowances or exceptions made for their celebrity status or gender.
Guiding recruits through the most gruelling course yet is Chief Instructor Ant Middleton and returning DS Ollie Ollerton, joined for the first time by retired US Navy SEAL Clint Emerson and former British Special Forces soldier Dean Stott.
The DS will push the celebrities beyond their limits, subjecting them to extreme physical endurance, sleep deprivation, interrogation and psychological testing. Some recruits will reach breaking point and withdraw. Who will have the mental strength to tough it out to the end?
