The Britain’s Got Talent judges are left aghast as they witness one of the most dangerous audition the show has ever seen on Saturday night.
The first episode of the new series features a nerve-wracking balancing act called the Vardanyan Brothers, who have Simon Cowell close to staging an intervention to stop their performance.
The Russian siblings take to the stage during the final part of Saturday’s show to showcase their act, which sees them balancing in precarious positions.
However, the pair have the judges and the audience screaming in terror as one of them attempts to balance on the edge of a knife, which is placed in the other’s mouth.
And if you think that sounds horrifying, just look at it in action…
After finishing their audition, Simon remarks: “I almost said you can’t do this because this is the most dangerous act on any Got Talent show. It is the most dangerous thing I’ve ever seen.”
But should they get through to the next round, the brothers have promised they have much more horrifying stunts up their sleeves.
Saturday night’s show will also see a drag version of The Queen, a unique school choir and a haunting magic act try out for judges Simon, Amanda Holden, Alesha Dixon and David Walliams.
Britain’s Got Talent returns on Saturday at 7.15pm on ITV.
