Demian's Act that Astonished America's Got Talent Judges

Dream - Today, the thrilling acts of magician Demian Aditya can be witnessed on the program America's Got Talent. Demian has always tried not to reveal the acts he will perform on the talent search show hosted by Simon Cowell.

"This act has never been performed by me before. So I will perform my own creation for the first time on an international stage. It's a game that I created myself," said Demian in Tendean, South Jakarta, on Tuesday, May 30, 2017.

The husband of Sara Wijayabto only gave a hint that his act is closely related to people's fears.

The public's curiosity is now answered. Through their official YouTube account, America's Got Talent showed clips of Demian's scenes that shocked many American viewers.

Demian is currently performing....

Thrilling Moments of Demian's Act

In the show, the four judges of America's Got Talent were astonished by the thrilling act of Sara Wijayanto's husband.

So curious about Demian's act, one of the judges, Howie Mandell, even stood up after watching Demian's act on stage.

The scene began with a box filled with sand on top of it. At the bottom, there was an empty space for Demian to demonstrate his act.

Tense moments occurred when Demian started handcuffing his hands. Demian then entered the room with a rope tied around his neck.

As if not making the heart race enough, the audience became more frightened when Demian tried to release the rope that was tied around his neck. Meanwhile, white sand on top of him started to cover his body.

If he failed to escape, the white sand would cover his entire body.

Where is Demian?

As Demian tried to free himself, the sand container was already full. Unable to bear the weight, it eventually covered the room where Demian was inside.

The audience was shocked. The space that was previously occupied by Demian was now filled with sand. The judges were also astonished by the performance.

Two personnel dressed in all black went up on stage. They tried to break the glass box. So, where is Demian?
