[Warning: Potentially Triggering Content] Former America’s Next Top Model candidate Sarah Hartshorne is coming forward to reveal some of the insane difficulties that came with competing on that iconic show — and we are floored!

Hartshorne was a contestant on cycle 9 of Tyra Banks‘ iconic ANTM back in the day, which filmed in the summer of 2007 and then aired that fall on the CW.

And back then, things were a s**t show, according to Hartshorne. She just spoke to Vice for the Tuesday night season finale of their bombshell series The Dark Side Of Reality TV, and we’ve been left gobsmacked by HOW BAD things apparently were on set!!

According to Hartshorne, even though contestants could be seen by viewers to faint every so often during episodes as part of on-air challenges, the reality behind the scenes was much worse.

She claims “a girl fainted every week” on the show — and the vast majority of those scary moments were left on the editing room floor!
