A Britain’s Got Talent star has left fans gobsmacked after sharing a grim snap of his injury post-hospital dash.
In a jaw-dropping turn during the talent show’s grand finale on Sunday, two members from the Ssaulabi Performance Troupe spectacularly collided mid-air instead of smashing a wooden block. One member of the Korean martial arts squad took a nasty hit when he smacked into his mate, prompting an ambulance to zoom in for the save.
The injured warrior was spotted limping out of Hammersmith Apollo, straight into the waiting ambulance, as judges Simon Cowell, Alesha Dixon, and Bruno Tonioli watched on, utterly aghast.

Now, the trouper has taken to social media to reveal the extent of his gnarly injury while he’s laid up in hospital. Posting a pic of his leg all pinned up, he simply captioned it with a resigned “sigh” hinting that his high-flying antics might be on hold for a bit.
During their act, the performer took a tumble and couldn’t get back on his feet, leaving Alesha visibly shaken. He managed to drag himself offstage for help, and once the act wrapped up, songstress Alesha Dixon didn’t miss a beat to wish him well before he was whisked away to hospital, reports the Mirror.
Viewers at home were quick to spot the drama unfold. “Did one of the performers just break their foot looked serious #bgtfinal,” tweeted one shocked fan, while another chimed in: “This is ever so cool but did I just see mateyboi break his foot and crawl off? That’s gotta hurt #bgtfinal.”
A third viewer was impressed, saying: “These martial arts peeps should win tbf I’ve not seen half these people before and this is actual talent….. Plus one has literally crawled off stage and probably broken his foot in the process so fair play #BGT.”
After a member of Ssaulabi Performance Troupe suffered an injury, Britain’s Got Talent reps told the Mirror: “During last night’s live final, a member of Ssaulabi Performance Troupe was injured. He was quickly seen by our onsite medical team before going to hospital for further treatment. All at BGT wish him a speedy recovery.”
Despite the mishap, Sydnie Christmas clinched the title in the live Britain’s Got Talent final, amidst some controversy. Overwhelmed by her victory, she expressed her gratitude post-win: “I cannot believe the amount of love I’ve felt since it aired. It’s absolutely – oh my god. I am overwhelmed with love and I wish for one day that everyone feels the way I do. It’s amazing, thank you so much.”
