Highwire walker Jade Kindar-Martin brought the heat to “America’s Got Talent: Extreme” with an act “that definitely has never been seen before.” The 47-year-old acrobat took an extreme risk for his “AGT” audition when he set out to walk across a 25-foot-high flaming tightrope with no net, highline or any padding, ultimately increasing his chance of serious injury.

He rode the bike down the flaming wire for the “super-dangerous” act, pausing midway to keep his balance.
