Britain's Got Talent magic act horrifies BGT viewers as man falls to 'death'

A magic act horrified Britain's Got Talent viewers as a man appeared to fall to his "death".

Of course, this was all part of muscly Matt Stirling' s, 46, act tonight as he correctly guessed all of the films the judges had picked out.

In an action-packed twist, all of the films were acted out behind him and even in the crowd.

This included a man casually strolling behind him on stage covered in flames.

For Skyfall, a man appeared to be heckling from a box in the theatre - but later fell from a great height.
