NBC > Reality > America's Got Talent

Turn on any network any given night of the week and you will see that talented singers are a dime a dozen. The things he does you have never seen before, they certainly take skill, and he's hilarious while he does it. If you ask me, thats the kind of performer that should be rewarded.

He was funny the first time, but I didn't see it tonight. He bills himself as a comic, but there wasn't alot of comedy there tonight. I admit it takes talent to balance a lawn mower on your chin, but remember the big guy from New York that balanced the stove on his mouth, not alot of difference, that's balancing, imo its not comedy.

Are you talking about the lawn mower guy? That was too ludicrous to get to the finale, I must say.

I liked how the lawn mower guy snapped back at the judge. I wanted to see a little more of that type of interaction. Him trying to defend himself was better then his actual show. Come on, if i saw someone on the street doing that, I would give him 1 dollar and keep walking. Its a million dollar reward. not a 1 dollar show.

I love his performances! Not many people would balance a running lawn mower over their head for our entertainment! I hope he makes it to the finals!!! :)

Um, people are failing to remember that it was a RUNNING lawnmower!! Had he dropped it he could have died or been seriously injured.

I think he only did that act because he prommised he would and the fact that it was banned is kind of a staple for his act. He has better stuff in store - like juggleing chainsaws.

your right, matt, it WAS running, I just expected more of something funny, not just dangerous, he is good, just not the best, to me. I know I couldn't do it. I don't think I could even pick it up to get it to my face.

To be honest, I thought the thing he did with the lighter and the baby doll was more entertaining than the lawnmower bit. After all, the judges buzzed off a guy that could balance a motorcycle on his chin.

The only reason I would encourage people to vote for him is that he is, without a doubt, the most unpredictable act anyone could ever ask for. Still, that was a pretty dumb act to get banned in three countries for.

I think, with that sort of act, most stay tuned, just to see if he drops it. Come on... admit it. He does have talent, but I'm not sure that this is the right venue for him. I'll give him half a check mark... He did make the biggest mess of the stage. of all the contestants. I was really hoping he would juggle the mower rather than just doing a balancing act. Now, "That" would be good television". I want to see him, juggle a lawnmower, a chainsaw, an egg and a paper airplane. I'll bet he can't do that!

In spite of all my criticism, I did enjoy his act. If he were ever in my area, I would go see him... and I'd pay for it too.

That was the most hilarious thing I have seen since Cirque Du Soleil "O" clowns
