So, we never heard a word from him during the show. But, i've managed to somehow discover his name thanks to @GotTalent

His act was absolutely brilliant, I think anyone in Ant's position would be as frightened as he was - he was blinded! But, he is definitely one of the dark horses of the competition.

Agreed! I thought he was absolutely brilliant and for me that is why I like BGT more than any or the other talent shows because BGT is a showcase for talent like Aaron.

He's been showcased on many TV shows according to his website.

I think he was invited to come on the show. Oh and he's from Belgium.

I agree that he was brilliant. I watched it twice trying to work out how he manged it.

He was very good and it was well presented.....but I don't think his act was close to as nail biting as the sword/cucumber act from 2010-

I was stunned those guys never made it to the semi-finals...too dangerous perhaps?

I'm-a-pain · 28/04/13 - 05:57

I enjoyed the act, all except the dripping the wax onto his eyes, that wasn't pleasant to watch!

Perhaps. There was a guy the preceding year called Nick Hell. His act was mind-bogglingly terrifying, he got 2 buzzers in his audition. He somehow made it to the semis and got buzzed by all three judges. He drilled through his nose.

But Aaron seems more of a professional. And of course, they've enforced the 'do not try this at home' rule so I don't think there'll be an issue there.

But it said what his name was before the act. I wonder if he speaks English or just didn't speak?

He is Belgian so probably doesn't speak English. Or he chose not to speak as he was in a 'mental state'.

Aaron could be an alien for all I care. Man what a talent!
To be able to be scarier than Freddy Kruger, sharp as a samurai and entertaining at the same time - thats talent.

If international viewers can vote I'd vote for him.
He is incredible and I just want to see more and more.

egghead1 · 28/04/13 - 22:30

I read a comment yesterday maybe on YouTube or Twitter someone decrying his act as there was a metal stand for the pineapple! The idea isnt to chop off hands holding it!

Gregg_LUFC · 28/04/13 - 22:32

I just thought the wax dripping made him look like he should have been in a porn movie

In what way?

goonernatalie · 29/04/13 - 15:18

Good act but am sure all what you see is not actually what is truly happening
I am sure he can speak english as children in Europe learn english from a early age

HMO · 29/04/13 - 18:05

What do you think he could do in the semi-finals? How much further could he go?

[Deleted User] · 29/04/13 - 18:46

I'm sure he speaks English. The dumb act just adds to the bravado, very clever and quite a chilling looking character.

We don't know that. He's a magician so there's so much he can do.

Nosaer · 29/04/13 - 23:15

Have a look at his website http://www.aaroncrow.com/ he has at least 3 different tricks.

HMO · 30/04/13 - 00:19

So he has a habit of not speaking on stage.

He has done the tricks he did for his audition before.

dannyb2k9 · 30/04/13 - 22:37

i thought this guy was great. it's always a breath of fresh air when there is a good act who isn't a singer or dancer

HMO · 02/05/13 - 18:07

The audition video hasn't quite gotten a million views as I would have expected.

Hey there!
