New York — George Santos has worn many hats: swindler, congressman, prison inmate, podcast host. The obvious next gig? Reality TV show contestant.In September, Santos will appear on the fifth season of Fox's "Special Forces: World's Toughest Test," a grueling contest where participants will be subjected to chemical gassing and other military-themed challenges in a Malaysian jungle, the network announced Wednesday. "I took my fat behind off the coach and tried something new!," Santos wrote in a post on X along with a promotional image of himself standing next to a tree with a stern expression on his face. "And it changed EVERYTHING! I can't wait to share this experience with y'all!"
