Amazing Race's Bopper: Withdrawal Was "Heartbreaking"
The Amazing Race All-Stars made its first elimination before the race even started. That "gut-wrenching" start Phil Keoghan described saw fan fave Bopper bow out at the starting line due to an inflamed pancreas.

See what else the Season 20 alum had to say about his withdrawal and how it all went down.
