Trapeze Married Couple Act Goes Horribly Wrong On America's Got Talent

Mary and Tyce, a husband and wife trapeze team, initially wowed the judges as they performed gravity-defying tricks high above the stage, which was on fire throughout their act.

Their impressive feats were made even more daring as Tyce is legally blind in his right eye due to a progressive eye disease.

On their final big trick, Tyce blindfolded himself as he hung upside down and prepared to catch his wife.

Mary then fell backward so Tyce could catch her by her ankles but she slipped through his grip, falling heavily to the floor.

The audience and judges screamed as she plunged to the ground.
