She said: "What they don't tell you is how far you'll fall if you fall off.
"So, they refuse to tell you that so you don't know if you're falling a little bit or halfway down the building. It's incredibly nerve-wracking."
Charlene must be thankful she's not involved with this year's show, as producers ramped things up even more this time around.
Campmates had to cling to a cylindrical metal pole on all fours while climbing along the length, out into thin air to retrieve a star.

The changes come as no surprise as, last year some viewers said the high octane opener had begun to feel familiar.
