A stunt on America’s Got Talent went horribly wrong

Ouch - it looks very painful.

Ouch – that looks sore. 

America’s Got Talent is known for its variety of acts, from singers, impressionists, dancer, magicians and stunts. While most of them go according to plan, there are sometimes others which go terribly wrong.

This one has to be one of the worst. Amber and Ryan Stock, a couple who perform stunts, were taking part in the quarter-finals of the talent show, and were completing a series of death-defying stunts.

The first included Ryan putting a sword in his mouth and then he used an arrow to do the same thing. Not stopping there, though, they then lit an arrow on fire and Amber aimed it at a target Ryan was holding.

This is the part that went very wrong. When Amber pulled the trigger, the arrow missed the target and instead shot directly into Ryan’s shoulder.

The camera then cuts to the judges who are in complete shock.

Watch it here:

They’re blaming the mistake on a technical failure. Ryan later tweeted to say that he is okay and fortunate to have walked away from it.
