Kevin was blindfolded as he walked through the swinging cannonballs, which were set on fire.
He said: “These cannonballs will career across the stage, taking out literally everything in their path. I need complete faith in science.”
However, despite Kevin making it through without any harm, he admitted it didn’t go to plan.
How did he know they went off at the wrong time.
He told the judges: “At the start it didn’t work. The things went off at the wrong time.”

Meanwhile, a source recently told The Sun: “It’s a routine Kevin has clearly done hundreds of times before.”
The insider said as he “began to walk blindfolded through the pendulum” one of the balls became “out of sync and it became very risky”.
The source added: “He managed to get through it without a scrape, but had a ball hit him it would have killed him.
