He continues: “Now, Simon we know you love a bit of drama, so tonight we will be setting these cannonballs on fire.”

“Ladies and gentlemen, I need complete faith in science.”

A man came on the stage and lit the cannonballs on fire as Kevin put a bag over his head so he couldn’t see anything.

The audience starts shifting in their seats and covering their eyes and the judges are just as shocked. 

The judges are used to seeing the most shocking acts on Britain’s Got Talent, but this one seems to have shaken them to the core. 

Simon Cowell, David Walliams, Amanda Holden, and Alesha Dixon have all returned and this time they are looking for even more talent. 

Last week, dancers, X1X showed the judges what they had, following in the footsteps of former BGT winners Diversity. 

The group of youngsters was aged between 13 and 28 left the audience and judges amazed as they catapulted themselves over each other. 

However, when the dance group proceeded to create a human tower with one of the dancers forming a horizontal plank at the very top at least 15-20ft in the air, the mood in the room turned. 

It was what happened next that left judge Simon speechless when a stunt could have gone very badly wrong. 

Once the human tower was complete, one dancer took a leap with the help of his team to stand on the top of the tower. 

He then took the 20ft drop back down to the ground somersaulting all the way down, he was caught by his teammates, but Simon was left open-mouthed.

Britain’s Got Talent continues on ITV tonight at 8pm.
