Craig McLachlan Shockingly Resigns from SAS Australia After Desperately Summoning Medical Aid and Confessing to Being Emotionally Shattered

Craig McLachlan was forced to quit SAS Australia on Monday after admitting his body wasn’t strong enough to continue with the course.

The 58-year-old actor admitted that while he had the mental stamina needed to go all the way, physically he was struggling.

As he attempted a gruelling challenge – which saw teams crawl through mud across rough terrain- an exhausted Craig suddenly dropped to his knees.

‘I need to see the doc,’ he called out.

When asked what’s wrong, Craig explained: ‘I feel like a hot knife through f**king butter.’

Ant Middleton then instructed Craig to stand up, before he continued to yell at him until he made a decision.

‘If you can’t carry on, you’re gonna let the team down tomorrow on the ground,’ he then told him.

Craig then responded: ‘I can’t let them down (fellow recruits)’ before taking off his number and handing it over.

‘Look at me. You’ve done the right thing. Because tomorrow, you would the f**king ground like a f**king idiot, by yourself, with no one to come and pick you up,’ he said.

Craig then told Ant that he hopes he didn’t disappoint him, to which he responded: ‘No, you haven’t let us down. You’ve done amazing. 

‘Absolutely amazing. Your body’s f**king given up on you… That’s it.’

Craig then explained: ‘Psychologically, I have what it takes. I’ve worked too hard and faced too many challenges to just pack it in’.

‘For me to take my armband off… I will have to be… Broken, you know, physically.’

He then admitted that he could not carry on, and handed in his armband, ending his time on the show.
