Extreme and painful stunts shock judges and audience
BRITAIN'S Got Talent viewers were left horrified after a jaw-dropping stunt act aired with a warning for children, prompting furious reactions online. The controversial performance came from The Lazy Generation, a group of daredevil athletes known for their extreme - and painful - stunts. Their audition featured a series of dangerous challenges that left both the judges and the audience wincing.
Reckless performances raise concerns
In one shocking moment, an overweight member of the group took a running leap and landed on his teammates as they lay on the floor, in what they called a "human long jump." The act included snapping elastic bands on bare chests, running on a treadmill while dodging obstacles, and falling into a row of cacti. By the end of the routine, the performers were visibly battered and bruised, with cuts on their knees and cactus spikes sticking in their feet.
Controversy ensues with mixed reactions
While the BGT judges were won over by their antics, viewers at home were less impressed. Many questioned why such a reckless performance was allowed on prime-time TV. Some viewers expressed shock and concern, with one fan even suggesting that kids might try to imitate the dangerous stunts.
Recognized performers with a history of extreme stunts
