Britain’s Got Talent viewers were amused by a ‘don’t try this at home’ warning during Sunday’s episode as a stuntman took to the stage.
Brazilian Arbon was seen climbing onto incredibly high stilts before holding a handstand at the top while fire burned around him below.
The athletic auditionee, 26, delighted many viewers as he took to the stage without a top on, with his rippling abs on display.
However, fans of the show found it entertaining that hosts Ant McPartlin and Declan Donnelly had warned viewers not to attempt Arbon’s stunts at home, with many taking to social media to say they simply couldn’t because they didn’t have the necessary equipment.
One person wrote on Twitter: ‘“DON’T TRY THIS AT HOME” say #BGT… yeah because I have all this apparatus in my shed apparently you kind find it on the middle aisle at ALDI.’

While someone else shared: ‘Do not try this at home you say … my husband is currently stood on the babies high chair with a load of my scented candles around him with a pair of my tights on his head.’
‘Warning… don’t try this at home… urm, yeah you don’t need to worry bout that… Man alive,’ laughed another viewer.
While someone else wrote: ‘Who needs the, don’t try this at home warning! I mean, who even has all this kit just laying around! Forget the act, I’ve had a roast dinner and apple crumble, I couldn’t even get into trousers that snug at the minute.’
‘”Don’t try this at home” yeah I don’t have any 30-foot stilts or flaming torches in at the minute lads,’ remarked someone else.
And someone else wrote: ‘Don’t try this at home. I wasn’t going to, I have work tomorrow can’t be throwing myself about the living room and catching fire.’
Noting Arbon’s physique, another viewer joked: ‘Every woman in the U.K looking at their Gary eating a bag of salt & vinegar & then back at Arbon.’
While someone else shared: ‘I’m sorry but the way that Brazilian topless man called Arbon is handling those poles though.’
And someone else posted: ‘Who cares what his talent is with those Abs Arbon from Brazil.’

Gripped by Arbon’s high-stakes performance, judge Bruno Tonioli said: ‘I think I had a heart attack five times.’
An eight-year-old boy with a brain tumour along with his choir have secured the coveted golden buzzer during the second episode of Britain’s Got Talent.
The hit ITV1 reality competition series made its return to TV in the form of a weekend double bill, which saw a singer and a South Korean martial arts troupe awarded a golden buzzer each during the launch episode on Saturday.
On Sunday’s episode, Ravi’s Dream Team, a choir of people ranging from age five to 78, fronted by eight-year-old Ravi, were put straight through to the live shows when judge Alesha Dixon hit the special buzzer.
Taking to the stage, Ravi introduced his sister, mother and father to the judges and explained his reasoning for being on the show.
‘I’ve watched BGT all my life and always wanted to audition for it,’ he said.
‘Two years ago I was diagnosed with a brain tumour and I’m here to show no matter what life throws you can still achieve your dreams.’
Ravi and the choir performed A Million Dreams from movie musical The Greatest Showman which left Dixon and Amanda Holden in tears.

Explaining why she pressed the buzzer, Dixon said: ‘The golden buzzer is such a personal thing and I always say I can only press it when it feels right and you’re such a remarkable young man.’
The judges then got to their feet as the members of the choir, which comprised Ravi’s friends, family, teachers from school, medical professionals and other children from the brain tumour community, hugged each other in celebration.
Dancing his way to four yeses on the show was 10-year-old schoolboy Trey Braine who flipped and breakdanced to a medley that included the song All I Do Is Win by DJ Khaled.
Dixon called Trey ‘the most delightful young man’.
‘You are 10 years old and you’ve got so much swag just in your little finger,’ she said.
‘You’ve got so much natural talent that’s pouring out of you, so well done Trey.’
Sitting on a stool while wildlife scenery played on a screen behind her was Genevieve Cote, who provided sounds of nature to accompany the visuals.
These included impressions of a seagull, galloping horses and monkeys.

An overwhelmed Trey agreed to try out in front of the panel but fans were confused as to why Trey, who already has more than a million social media followers, was invited to audition
Alesha told Trey he was ‘the most delightful young man’, adding: ‘You are 10 years old and you’ve got so much swag just in your little finger’
Before she received her four yeses, Toniolo told the impressionist she was a ‘force of nature’ while Holden described the performance as ‘one of the most spiritual experiences I think I’ve ever felt’.
Making his return to the show was Jack Rhodes who revealed to the judges that he was the Phantom, an ‘invisible’ magician, who appeared on the show in 2022.
When the judges gave their verdict, Cowell said the only aspect of the performance that was lacking for him was the ending, which ‘didn’t feel big enough’.
After he said this Jack tapped on a box which revealed that his wetsuit-clad assistant had disappeared from the trunk he had just climbed into.
Also on the show, the judges were left unimpressed after performer Duncan Fletcher demonstrated a variety of stunts in a skit that involved him falling about and setting himself on fire.
Cowell said: ‘I have nothing to say, I mean, you were just falling over and then you caught fire and that was it.’
The TV personality called the next stuntman, Danny ZZZZ, ‘absolute rubbish’ when his fire-fuelled stunt went wrong.
Handcuffed and shackled inside a box that was then set alight, the stuntman fell from the bottom and explained to the judges that he was meant to come out of the front.
Another act who failed to impress was Henry and Richard who performed Somewhere Over The Rainbow with an instrument that made cat sounds.
Elsewhere, opera singer Innocent Masuku walked away with four yeses after he sang a rendition of Caruso by Lucio Dalla.
Dixon said his performance was ‘overwhelming’ while Holden said he was ‘by far the best opera singer we have ever had’.
This year’s contestants take to the stage in the hope of securing a £250,000 cash prize and a spot on the bill of the Royal Variety Performance.
Britain’s Got Talent continues on Saturday April 27 at 7.30pm on ITV1.
