Americas Got Talent Liveshows-Seth Grabel

FOR BRITSH VIEWERS, THIS ARTICLE MAY CONTAIN SPOILERS
WHAT DID SETH DO?

Seth performed an act which began with him being hoisted over a tank full of what appeared to be tar in a straitjacket. He appeaerd to fall into the tar, then the tank opened up to reveal assiatants carrying what appeaerd to be his body. They put it in a cannon and fired it at a water tank, where Seth then appeared, alive and clean. Like all Seth's other tricks, it was unique and inventive, but too easy to figure out. There were mistakes which aggravated this problem too (When Seth fell into the tank, his hands were free, but the body in the cannon still has bound hands). Nonetheless, the production values were good, and the trick wasn't conventional

WHAT DID THE JUDGES SAY?

Howie claimed that he was fooled by the trick and thought that Seth blew him away. Sharon claimed that she hadn't seen the trick before and liked the lavish production values, whilst Piers said that it was "Bigger, better [and] Slicker" then his previous performances

WHAT IS THE COMPETITION LIKE?

Whilst "Singer" Mauricio Herrera, Young rappers the Sh'boss boys,Yo-yo performer Ian Johnson, Dance act The Purrfect Angels and sideshow performers Captain and Maybelle can all be ruled out of the running, the rest of Seths competition was all very impressive. The Summerwind Skippers did some impressive and exciting jump rope tricks. though they may not have worked well on the big stage, they were still excellent. POPLYFE impressed the judges with a solid version of "rolling in the deep". Landau Murphy Jr. made a safe song choice ("Fly me to the moon") but is still very talented indeed. Monet has a sob story that will get votes (About her losing her home in a hurricane) and may offset the fact that the judges felt her voice hadn't yet matured. Lys Agnes made a bad song choice ("Habena" from Carmen) but still sang it well. Finally, Professor Splash dived nearly 37 feet into a pool of water only a foot deep, setting a new world record.

WHAT ARE SETHS CHANCES?

Low . If Landon Swank couldn't get out of a very weak heat last week, Grabel should have no chance in his more competitive group. However, Grabel had good stage presense and a memorable, if not perfect, trick that was more spectacular than Landon's. Expect him to be the last performer eliminated before the judges choice
