Britain’s Got Talent fans left hiding after illusionist’s shock stunt

OHMYGOSSIP — ‘Britain’s Got Talent’ viewers were left hiding behind their hands during Saturday’s (28.04.18) show as an illusionist took to the stage with a heart-stopping stunt.
The talent series has seen some impressive singers, magicians and awful but memorable acts since it hit screens this month, but one competitor the panel – comprised of Simon Cowell, Amanda Holden, David Walliams and Alesha Dixon – won’t be forgetting for a while is Dutch act Magus Utopia from tonight’s episode.
The performance started off with a man settling down to sleep in a bed positioned in the middle of the stage but, within seconds, he’d managed to transform into a girl.
As the bed burst into flames, the man reappeared before he’s stuffed in a cage and four spears are pushed through the centre – leading to it being set on fire.
As the rest of the team put the small blaze out with an extinguisher, the man reappears – in one piece – on the bed while the audience look on in amazement.
Although the act was somewhat scary, it got a standing ovation from the judges.
Alesha said of the mind-blowing performance: “It was like a scene from a movie. Was so slick, costumes, acting, everything about that was first class.”
David suggested that there was enough content to make a “two hour Vegas show”, while Amanda compared it to Cirque du Soleil and Simon’s “dark mind.”
She joked: “It was so twisted and dark, like the inside of Simon’s mind.”
Magus Utopia received four yeses from the panel and have made it to the next round.
