When Chiko took to stage with an aerial stunt act, the judges weren't quite sure what to expect. But the moment he delved into his act, they were nothing short of impressed. Stacking stlits all the way to the buzzer boards, Chiko even pulled off an impressive handstand. The judges later found out that this was only the second time Chiko had attempted this. Howie Mandel and Heidi Klum absolutely love the act and so did Simon Cowell. With Sofia Vergara translating for Chiko, seeing that he was not fluent in English, she gave him the four 'yeses' he needed to advance forward. Fans were just as impressed with his act! 

"He was unbelievably high. A great acrobat that needs to get into his tricks a little faster in the future as not to lose those of us with a little less of a attention span. Well done #AGT" wrote a fan. "My heart stopped. Wow. If I wasn’t afraid of heights I am now. He was so high. My goodness. #AGT" said a fan. "@AGT #AGT I don’t like death defying acts. But, dang, that was amazing. My jaw is on the floor." added another. "Wow Chico was amazing he kept me on the edge of my seat and with the knives on the stilts too #AGT" tweeted a fan. "And we've met our "do not try this at home" act quota for this week. #AGT" added another.
