A young Manchester magician made his way through to the next round on Britain's Got Talent - after 'sawing' Amanda Holden in half.
Daniel Rhodes, who lives in Shaw , appeared on Saturday night's edition of the ITV show and impressed the judges with his spectacular magic trick.
The charismatic 15-year-old had the audience stunned and in stitches as he enlisted the help of BGT judge Amanda - who looked rather nervous when she realised what she was getting into to.
Dan presented Amanda with his own, home-made cardboard box, mounted on to a wooden surface, which he asked her to get into so you could only see her legs and head.
He then proceeded to 'saw' the TV star in half leaving everyone on tenterhooks before magically putting Amanda's body back together again - with the help of a few staples.
Dan even persuaded Simon Cowell to change his mind and take back the red buzzer he gave him early on in his act.
Simon said: "Dan, I'll take the 'x' back ok. I thought by buzzing things would go wrong but that didn't work.
"I feel a bit of showmanship about you, Dan. You're very confident. It did surprise me at the end so well done."
And viewers of the ITV show enjoyed the trick too.
"Aw Dan was really good, comedy and magic #BGT," said one.
Another commented: "Dan Rhodes what a guy. Great to see people who really want to go far in life. You only live once."
"Confident young lad didn't expect that trick to go well with just a cardboard box but it worked," said a third.
As he arrived on stage, Dan let everyone know that his traditional act did have an untraditional edge. He said: "Britain's Got Talent is the best show in the world in my opinion and I wanted to come on, perform my magic and try to take it to the next level."
"What you're about to see has never been seen on British television before," he adds, "What I'm about to do is a trick that I actually invented myself.
"I didn't have the budget to do an amazing illusion so I made one myself."
This isn't the teens' first time on TV.
The talented young magician starred in one of the USA's most popular entertainment shows, Little Big Shots, when he was just 13.
The show sees youngsters show off a variety of talents in front of a live audience.
