Have you ever heard of America’s Got Talent Extreme? Have you heard they are getting sued? Please allow us to lay out all the details for you. First off, let us explain the concept behind the show. The concept was not enough people risk dying for the original show, so let’s up the risk considerably while upping none of the safety measures behind the scenes. So instead of people singing and dancing, they are doing insane and over the top stunts. In some cases, stunts that are almost too dangerous to even try.
In this case, a man named Jonathan Goodwin is the name of the person suing. Why? Because he did a stunt live on the show, that caused him to nearly die and end up paralyzed. We are sharing the video below, but please watch with caution. Seeing a man get crushed between two cars could be a day ruiner for most. America’s Got Talent Extreme is getting sued, and they genuinely deserve it.
America’s Got Talent Extreme Getting Sued By Former Contestant And It’s Getting Messy
In said stunt, Jonathan hung in a straight jacket between two hanging cars. He was trying to get out of the jacket and drop down safely before the cars crushed him. Suffice it to say, he didn’t get out in time, and the rest is history. He is suing because he said they intervened with his stunt, causing it to go wrong. The reality is America’s Got Talent Extreme lasted only one episode for a reason. It should have never existed.
In his suit, Jonathan’s blasting the show for what he says was a failure to implement industry safety standards. He says the production hired unqualified people to oversee and design the stunt, which he says wasn’t tested with a crash dummy before he got in the ring.
