It’s the hit show which has discovered endless talents all across the globe. But the Got Talent ran into serious trouble recently when an act on the quarter-finals of America’s Got Talent went horribly wrong.
Ryan Stock and his assistant were performing a daredevil stunt, live on television when he was accidently shot in the throat with a flaming arrow. However, even the premise of serious harm and even death was not enough to see Scott and his finance, Amber Lynn, through to the semi-finals and they were eliminated on Tuesday night.
After the dramatic event, he admitted that his fiance was sceptical about doing the stunt in the first place. He said ‘Amber didn’t think we should do this one, she was a little scared, but I talked her into it.’ It seems like she might have been right after all.
When host Nicked quizzed Ryan about the shocking event, he said that it was due to a malfunction in the equipment and not the fault of either himself or finance Amber. He also said of the mishap ‘we weren’t sure what had gone wrong, so it was really trying to figure out whether I was on fire and whether I was OK.’
