Britain’s Got Talent fans inundate Ofcom with complaints after ITV aired VERY dangerous stunt

Britain’s Got Talent fans flooded Ofcom with 83 complaints after ITV aired a very dangerous stunt on Saturday night’s episode.

During the chilling act, contestant Andrew Stanton lifted judge Amanda Holden, 52, off the floor with a chain attached to his eyeballs.

He had tied his own arms around his back, picked up a sword with his mouth and swallowed it.

Andrew then stuffed three sharp long knives into his mouth while his assistant savagely shoved them down his throat with a frying pan.

Simon Cowell even labeled the performance as the most “disgusting” in the show’s 16-year history.

Judges Alesha Dixon and Bruno Tonioli were forced to look away, shocked by the scene.

Amanda was asked to lie down on a platform tied to a chain, which was hooked to his eyes and suspended.

As Andrew lifted her off the floor, Simon remained in shock as Bruno and Alesha didn’t dare look.

‘Stop it, dude! What is the matter with you?!’ Declan Donnelly said desperately.

“That was terrible,” Amanda said as she was freed from the chains.

Dec added: “We’ve never seen anything like it before.”

Simon sarcastically commented, “I mean this as a compliment, it was the most disgusting thing I’ve ever seen.”

Alesha commented, “You’ve taken it to another level.”

TV regulator Ofcom confirmed it has received 83 complaints, while MailOnline has contacted Britain’s Got Talent representatives for comment.

Last month, Britain’s Got Talent was caught up in another Ofcom storm when the show received more than 400 complaints from outraged viewers.

According to The mirrorthe ITV talent show received 66 complaints from viewers on 15 April, rising to 334 the following day.

The show had returned to screens for the latest series, with some fans unimpressed by the ‘dangerous’ acts shown on screen.

Auditionee Thomas Vu had set himself on fire trying to solve a Rubix Cube, which left many viewers unimpressed.

One outraged viewer said on Twitter: “I’m sorry but it was mean to set yourself on fire. That’s not entertainment. I cannot bear these dangerous acts every year.”

Another added, “I mean, kids are watching this. How the hell is someone setting themselves on fire a damn good example.”

A third wrote: ‘Who decided to set themselves on fire while dissolving rubix cubes? There’s a thin line between talent and stupidity.’

Other viewers are disgusted by Saturday’s opening episode, which featured a man popping balloons with his farts.

Japan’s Ichikawa Koikuchi raised eyebrows with his act, with even Simon Cowell taking to the stage to help him when he kept missing his target.

One viewer commented, “In the past, this kind of ‘act’ would never have come through. But oddly enough, the new look Simon said yes. How low the depths of BGT have fallen. It really is a lot of hot air!’

Another added, “I think you just hit a new low #BGT,” while a third agreed, saying, “And so a new low was hit #BGT.”
