Forget being thrown backwards out of a helicopter or being cursed at by ex-special forces soldiers...
For the glamour girls of SAS Australia, the biggest challenge of the hit Channel Seven show was taming their wild hair against the gruelling elements.
With no hair dryers, hair straighteners or styling products to call on, the celebrity contestants turned to Savlon, an antiseptic cream used on 'cuts, scratches, blisters, grazes, windburn, sunburn, insect bites, cracked and itchy skin'.
They used what? Female SAS Australia recruits used a VERY surprising first-aid item to tame their wild, frizzy hair while on camera - antiseptic cream Savlon
'The girls were into the medical kit to find something to get their hair under control and the only thing they could find was, and wait for it... Savlon,' said one celebrity contestant.
'Yep Savlon. Who would have guessed? It seemed to work pretty well from what I could tell. They massaged it through their hair like you would hair gel and it did the trick.
'You have to remember girls like Bonnie (Anderson) and Isabelle (Cornish) are used to looking their best when on camera so they get pretty self-conscious when their hair is all over the show.
