While someone else wrote: ‘Who needs the warning? Do not try this at home!’ I mean, who has all this equipment lying around! Forget the act, I’ve had roast and apple crumble for dinner and I couldn’t even get into pants that tight right now.
“Don’t try this at home. Yeah, I don’t have 30-foot stilts or burning torches right now guys,” someone else commented.
And someone else wrote: ‘Don’t try this at home.’ I wasn’t going to do it, I have work tomorrow, I can’t run around the living room and light a fire.

While someone else shared: “Sorry but the way that topless Brazilian man named Arbon is handling those poles.”
And someone else posted: ‘Who cares what his talent is with those Abs Arbon from Brazil.’

An eight-year-old boy with a brain tumor along with his choir have secured the coveted golden buzzer during the second episode of Britain’s Got Talent.
The hit ITV1 reality competition series made its return to television in the form of a weekend double bill, which saw a South Korean singer and a martial arts group each receive a golden buzzer during the episode of launch on Saturday.
On Sunday’s episode, Ravi’s Dream Team, a choir of people aged five to 78, led by eight-year-old Ravi, went straight into the live shows when judge Alesha Dixon rang the special bell.
Taking the stage, Ravi introduced his sister, mother and father to the judges and explained his reasoning for being on the show.
“I’ve watched BGT my whole life and I’ve always wanted to audition for it,” he said.
“Two years ago I was diagnosed with a brain tumor and I’m here to show that no matter what life throws at you, you can still achieve your dreams.”
Ravi and the choir performed A Million Dreams from the musical film The Greatest Showman, which left Dixon and Amanda Holden in tears.
Britain’s Got Talent judges were left in tears during Sunday night’s show as they watched an eight-year-old boy with a brain tumor perform.
Ravi sang with his choir, Ravi’s Dream Team, and they went straight to the semi-finals when they got Alesha Dixon’s golden buzzer while moving her to tears.

Explaining why he pressed the bell, Dixon said: “The golden buzzer is a very personal thing and I always say I can only press it when I feel good and you are an extraordinary young man.”
The judges then stood as members of the choir, made up of friends, family, school teachers, medical professionals and other children from Ravi’s brain tumor community, hugged each other in celebration.
Dancing to four yeses on the show was 10-year-old schoolboy Trey Braine, who flipped and breakdanced to a medley that included DJ Khaled’s song All I Do Is Win.
Dixon called Trey “the most charming young man.”
“You’re 10 years old and you’ve got a lot of booty on your little finger,” he said.
“You have so much natural talent coming out of you, well done Trey.”
Sitting on a stool as a wildlife landscape played on a screen behind her was Genevieve Cote, who provided nature sounds to accompany the images.
Among them were prints of a seagull, galloping horses and monkeys.
Britain’s Got Talent viewers questioned judges Amanda Holden and Alesha Dixon’s move to invite a young dancer to audition for the show during Sunday’s episode.
The hit ITV1 reality competition returned to TV in 2024 in the form of a weekend double bill, with 10-year-old schoolboy Trey Braine showing off his dancing skills (LR: Amanda and Alesha were seen meeting Trey).
Overwhelmed, Trey agreed to try out in front of the panel, but fans didn’t understand why Trey, who already has over a million followers on social media, was invited to audition.
Alesha told Trey that he was “the most charming young man,” adding, “You’re 10 years old and you’ve got a lot of booty on your little finger.”
Before receiving his four yeses, Toniolo told the impressionist he was a “force of nature,” while Holden described the performance as “one of the most spiritual experiences I think I’ve ever felt.”
Jack Rhodes returned to the show and revealed to the judges that he was the Phantom, an “invisible” magician, who appeared on the show in 2022.
When the judges gave their verdict, Cowell said the only aspect of the performance that was missing was the ending, which “didn’t seem big enough.”
After saying this, Jack touched a box which revealed that his wetsuit-clad assistant had disappeared from the trunk he had just climbed into.
Also on the show, the judges were unimpressed after actor Duncan Fletcher demonstrated a variety of stunts in a skit involving him falling and catching himself on fire.
Cowell said: “I have nothing to say, I mean, you were just falling and then you caught fire and that was it.”
The TV personality called next stuntman Danny ZZZZ “absolute rubbish” when his fire-fueled stunt went wrong.
Handcuffed and chained inside a box that was later set on fire, the stuntman fell from below and explained to the judges that he had to exit through the front.
Another act that failed to impress was Henry and Richard, who performed Somewhere Over The Rainbow with an instrument that made cat sounds.
Elsewhere, opera singer Innocent Masuku took four yeses after singing a rendition of Lucio Dalla’s Caruso.
Dixon said his performance was “overwhelming”, while Holden said he was “by far the best opera singer we have ever had”.
This year’s contestants take to the stage in the hope of landing a cash prize of £250,000 and a place on the Royal Variety Performance bill.
Britain’s Got Talent continues on Saturday 27 April at 7.30pm on ITV1.
