LMAOOOOO

[@abigailmarshall5302]

Matt Johnson is the most consistently - come - very - close - to - being killed or seriously maimed escape artist I've ever seen!

[@ric0Ia._]

You can literally see the fear in his face before and after the act. Much props to him.

[@lo-firobotboy7112]

@@ric0Ia._ He's an excellent actor. So yes, props to him.....and his props.

[@chrisgreenhalgh735]

It's all part of the act.. those locks are rigged so he can easily pick them then the chainsaw isn't even a proper chainsaw it's cutting through some light wood. The one with the circular saws he did on the Audition I believe the water filling up was a distraction and again the saws only fell down when he span himself around again another safety mechanism.

[@duck2659]

If I was a judge I wouldnt wanna say yes because he could do it again

[@obedntori]

These guys are taking so much risk in doing these things. They really deserve a golden buzzer

Judges don't "just" give golden buzzers. May be they had exhausted the number allowed per season

When Matt Johnson said "I didn't pay attention to school, so this is what I do for a living" I felt that. Just to be clear, I'm a bachelor's degree holder.

[@jj-fk9ez]

hahaha

[@Woezye]

yeah

[@PavitST]

My favorite one was the matt johnson both of the escapes he did was amazingk

[@minhpp2852]

See Matt's face, he really scared, but he still dare to do those things, this man is INCREDIBLE

The first act tho when he was able to get out sofia screamed "GET UP GET UP" my heart was racing, 'boutta jump out my chest 😂😭

THEY DESERVE GOLDEN BUZZER

[@ephraimsolomon630]

He deserves a Golden Buzzer for God's sake!

[@grapplercanty]

The 1st act the dude said we have not done it enough😦 This dude is wild lol

[@Joker13244]

You know there wasn’t a chance that was dangerous lol

[@chelsaecox9459]

The act is setup for the blades to swing down once the chair is setup right again, the level of the water has nothing to do with it. All he has to build is build suspense and look flustered.

[@andrewrobertson114]

I Knoow! I cant bare that guy 🤮

[@denisgames3455]

I hope people realize that this acts are not actually dangerous and they just appear to be. They will never allow an actual dangerous act to be performed in front of so many people.

[@preciousmphande9060]

My friend they allow them coz they choose to but these acts really r dangerous i mean extremely dangerous!

[@Ricardo__Milos]

@@preciousmphande9060 No, there is no danger at all... You're delusional.

I believe the saw won’t come down until he gets off the seat

You got it!

Yes , atleast ..someone got it

[@krishanjuable]

YES

[@ladybhive1210]

8:46 that was dope!

[@lf9474]

The look on Simon face on the first one was priceless

[@ZeldaSam1]

I'd like ta see how Matt Johnson would fare against Jigsaw's "test trials."

[@abigailmarshall5302]

He'd probably do great. His traps are the real life Saw contraptions, except he doesn't have to cut off his limbs to escape

[@americanpancakelive]

The escape artist is a good actor- the trick is designed to release the saws by the rotation of the pivoting table he is secured to- In other words it is not dangerous. All escape artist tricks are designed this way.

[@BoltYT_]

If he didn't jump away tho his back still would've gotten sliced up.

[@abigailmarshall5302]

That seems to be exactly what he said. If he didn't put himself upright thus pivoting the table the saws would have come for him. I think all escape artist tricks involve the very real risk of being seriously injured, even if not death, as has been proven time and time again. Otherwise, they would get no kick from it themselves

[@ladybhive1210]

Exactly!

[@garcijo1]

Definitely

[@CaliberFiftyVideos]

The most important part to know about that contraption is that it can't actually "cut" somebody to a point it would be dangerous or serious. The sawblades have the actual cutting teeth removed and are sanded smooth, they could only do slight to medium blunt force injuries, basically giving him a bruise on his chest or back if he were still strapped in when they fell. Also the "incrediblly fast" rpm of 2000 is a third of what they spin at in a real machine. The machine they are driven by, is the housing of a battery powered angle grinder, but it has all it's original guts removed and a slower, weaker motor put in. The chain is also very loose, it will most likely hop of or jump the sprocket if the blades were stuck, IF the rebuild angle grinder could even deliver enough torque to jump the chain. As soon as you have even a sligh tunderstanding of how this works, it doesn't work for you as a trick anymore. It's basically just acting like you're in danger. The hangign and drowning is another story of course ;)

[@alishfn]

To the one person who is reading this: You’re worth something, you are a lovely and unique person!

[@GomerMcintyre]

Respect for what he done for AGT❗

[@georgejetson1025]

I can relate to the escape artist. But the straight jacket is me desperately trying to flee through my back door when my mother-in-law visits unexpectedly ( and she’s the saw)

[@Jayjay-xm6oy]

Lets we appreciate al these people in the world Long life for all of us🙏

[@Zotozan]

I’m not sure if I’m right….it’s just a thought….the saw came down only when he pulled himself up. So the water tank didn’t trigger the drop, they body weight and movement did. So he is always safe cause regardless how full the tank is, the saws are coming down the second he flips his body (so he is always safe)….it’s just a thought and I could be wrong

[@dieweienengeln3899]

You are right, I don't think he would actually risk his life just for the show.

[@ladybhive1210]

Noo oo... Rite its not the water this guy has done this😂

[@softballkid2727]

That’s why we never judge a book by its cover he did so good I was amazed

[@ariannatheangellove2526]

the first act literally had me in tears i was so scared for him

[@user-hq9vz5il7k]

they are risking they’re life. They deserve a golden buzzer

[@laurenwybacz1479]

Well done 👏

[@candyschampion4300]

THE FIRST ONE SCARED ME SO BAD MY HEART BEATED ☠

Matt's so good at doing dangerous things that I think it's better to fail him for his own safety

It's not real. You know that, right?

[@allanoeaglenumber6660]

The phrase "You've got Four Yeses" is not enough for these guys.I wanna see some one rise up and hit that F**kin Golden buzzer!!!!🛎️🛎️🛎️

matt johnson is a legend of the got talent recap

[@ciaaya_1]

this really deserves a golden buzzer

[@amilasenarath1692]

For me the circle saw escape looked more like, the saw releasing mechanism was with the plate where the artist was on, than the water container. So no matter how much weight you put on the clear container the circle saws will not get released until the man is off the platform.. 😬

[@timboslice8559]

Yes but the second one he literally almost got his face sawed in half! I think that’s why he was screaming cuz he knew it wasn’t rigged lol

[@chickenrex9437]

Imagine one of them had someone prank call a relative and say “so…the act went wrong”

I would love to see a danger act win AGT

[@27forlife]

I know everything about his escape is dangerous and deadly, but if you really see this escape acts what they usually do is the same they escape out of a handcuff or a clothe, the one thing that changes is the danger like the fire, blade or drowning. Any way its amazing.

[@owenjames8854]

He had to rehearse this way before he went onto the show. I don't believe when we said he did once

[@DianeSibbyKirina-yn8ch]

Amazing well done 🙂

Amazing

[@rajkumartalukdar4898]

God blessed you

[@zeeshansiddiqui7481]

It was planned. They cannot come down until he bend and move away with the whole mechanism. So until he moves back up then only bucket comes down and the mechanism lets them to come down. But good stuff 👏

[@markleeks1116]

Yep, obviously clever mechanism

[@ladybhive1210]

_100% it's not the water in the bucket.

[@Adrianlover89]

For all those wondering. The water doesn't control the saw blades up. When he got free and sat up, it triggered the latch to be released, allowing saws to fall Your welcome.

Exactly Well ,this is not a talent to me I feel it a skill

[@2012inca]

Escape artist tricks are built not to kill anyone. The first escape artist with the water filling up the tank is a distraction. The water has nothing to do with the spinning blades coming down. It is designed that the spinning blades come crashing down when he sits up right.

Matt Johnson is like Jigsaw but he puts himself in his own traps
