Britain’s Got Talent has been bombarded with hundreds of Ofcom complaints after appalling viewers with the ‘most disgusting act ever seen on the show’.
It comes after fans were left disgusted by Auzzy Blood’s ‘repulsive’ performance during the live semi-finals on Saturday night (April 27).
During his performance, Auzzy – whose real name is Austin Punton – hooked a chainsaw through his nose and put mᴀssive knives in his mouth.
Before the performance went ahead, he did give viewers a warning of ‘Please do not try this at home.’
However there were 129 people who were not impressed, despite the warning, and took to the TV regulator to complain.
Three-time Guinness World Record holder Auzy’s act left judges Simon Cowell, Amanda Holden, Alesha Dixon and Bruno Tonioli open mouthed as they watched in fear – but he unfortunately didn’t make it to the next round.

The horror-stricken act was dressed head to toe gothic attire and had painted their face in a skeleton like face paint.
Throughout the entire gruesome segment, the audience screamed in terror and all four judges turned their faces and chairs away.
