The stuntman stands on stacks of chairs resting on nothing but four glass bottles.

Antony gradually increases the amount of chairs he’s standing on, leaving fears that the glass bottles will smash under the pressure, causing the stunt man to fall onto shards of broken glass or fly into the judging desk.

“Oh s***,” said Amanda Holden as she watched Antony’s daredevil routine – causing ITV to issue a verbal warning to viewers.

Fellow Britain’s Got Talent judges and former Strictly colleagues, Alesha Dixon and Bruno Tonioli were equally shocked, with the singer audibly gasping.

The stunt has forced ITV bosses to make it clear to viewers that the dangerous stunt should “not be tried at home”.

The teaser clip said: “If you’re afraid of heights, this one’s gonna be an intense watch…”
