BGT judges terrified as Simon Cowell's neck is almost slashed by flying blade

Britain’s Got Talent judge Simon Cowell left his co-stars shaking in their boots during the filming of tonight’s episode, when a blade came too close for comfort.

Almost slicing his neck, Simon had a nail-biting run-in with a dagger during one outrageous act.

Showing no fear, the 60-year-old BGT star volunteers to take part in a performance with daredevils Claire-Marie and Jason.

Jason invites the music mogul onstage for a knife-throwing session, prompting panic to cross Amanda Holden ‘s face.

Ignoring her words of warning, Simon climbs the stage to part in the act, along with comedian David Williams.

Shocked by their bravery, Alesha Dixon exclaims: “You guys have gone absolutely crazy!”

Even Ant and Dec are left fretting for the celebrity judges, as they wish them “good luck” while watching on from the sidelines.

Starting to feel the pressure of the situation, Little Britain star David asks: “Is it better to look or not look?”

Poised to throw the blades, Jason instructs the celeb judges “don’t move” as he prepares to throw the knives.

In terrifying scenes, Jason starts flinging blades in their direction, with one knife narrowly missing Simon’s neck.

“That one was close,” Alesha agrees, watching on in terror.
