Terrified Simon Cowell Participates in Blindfolded Crossbow Stunt

In a preview clip for Britain’s Got Talent, Simon Cowell participated in a crossbow stunt. Ben Blaque is a master with the crossbow and has even been a contestant on America’s Got Talent. But that didn’t do much to calm Cowell, who was visibly nervous throughout the demonstration. The feat involved Blaque shooting his crossbow diagonally across the stage, setting off a chain of six other crossbows that finished with an apple being pierced above Blaque’s head. The catch? Blaque did the whole thing blindfolded.

Cowell reluctantly followed Blaque’s instructions to begin ringing a bell for a frame of reference of where to shoot. On Blaque’s command, Cowell began shaking the bell, in addition to shaking himself. Audience members, as well as fellow judges Amanda Holden and David Walliams, were all on the edge of their seats. The stunt was over in the blink of an eye, much to the relief of Cowell, who called Blaque “nuts.”
