“America’s Got Talent: Extreme” has paused production after an on-set accident, Variety has confirmed.
The accident occurred during a show rehearsal Thursday night and involved escape artist Jonathan Goodwin. According to TMZ, Goodwin was performing a stunt involving escaping from a straitjacket while suspended mid-air between two cars. But the feat went terribly wrong, and the cars reportedly crashed together with Goodwin caught in between. However, these details have not been confirmed.
A spokesperson for “America’s Got Talent” said in a statement to Variety that Goodwin is receiving care at a hospital and was still responsive after the accident.
“During a rehearsal last evening for ‘America’s Got Talent: Extreme,’ an accident occurred in which escape artist Jonathan Goodwin was injured while performing his act,” the spokesperson said in their statement. “He was responsive and was immediately taken to the hospital where he is continuing to receive medical care.
