Watching Hong Kong aerialist Jimmy Wong in action is a dizzying experience.
His gravity-defying acts take him high off the stage, where he might do something like rapidly spin while clinging to a lone strap with just one arm.
Earlier this month, 39-year-old Wong, who emigrated from Hong Kong to the UK two years ago, appeared on Britainโs Got Talent in a mesmerising performance that showed off his skills.
Wongโs audition on the long-running talent show was a mix of acrobatics and water dancing that had some audience members on their feet. His act received a โyesโ vote from all four judges, allowing him to proceed to the next round.
โIt is a high-stress environment for performers but the audience was really supportive,โ Wong says of his audition that was taped in October.
