BGT hopeful has viewers speechless after solving Rubik’s Cube while on fire
Yep, we’re just as speechless as you are!
The annual talent show returned for a second episode, and Sunday’s episode was just as wild and wacky as the first.
In the final few minutes of tonight’s instalment, professional stuntman Thomas Vu was the last act to take to the stage, and judges Simon Cowell, Amanda Holden, Alesha Dixon and Bruno Tonioli were stunned to see him covered in a fire-retardant gel before being set alight as he quickly solved the popular 80s puzzle.
Bruno and Alesha struggled to contain their gasps, with Simon and Amanda looking away in horror.
‘I can only be on fire for so long before I enter the danger zone where I risk being burnt,’ said Thomas.
Ant and Dec then warned viewers: ‘Do not try this at home, ever.’
Amanda shouted: ‘Oh my god’ as Thomas went up in flames.
Viewers were also stunned by the fiery scenes, with one person writing: ‘Solving a Rubik’s Cube while being set on fire… where do you go from that.’
Another joked: “Do not try this at home” ah man, I really wanted to try solving a Rubik’s cube whilst being set on fire.’
A third person added: ‘Don’t get me wrong, people do crazy stuff and it’s their choice and that’s fine by me but maybe that last act should have been well after the 9pm watershed?? Not sure that kind of playing with fire thing is suitable for young kids who probably stay up to watch BGT.’
Elsewhere, Simon used the golden buzzer on 13-year-old opera singer Malakai.
‘I was in tears!’, he said afterwards.
‘It really touched me and it was really simple. You sang like an angel.’
Fellow judge Amanda Holden hailed the performance ‘stunning’ and ‘flawless’.
‘You did yourself so proud,’ she praised.
Britain’s Got Talent returns on Saturday at 8pm on ITV.
