Talk about the best entrance I've ever seen on Got Talent.

Whoo! No pressure now.
Your performance has got to live up to that entrance.
Yeah. 'Cause that was pretty good alone.
Nice to meet you, Wolfpack.
Tell me a bit about the group, where are you from?
So, guys, we're Wolfpack.
(CHEERING)
And we're all from all around Sydney, Australia.
What are the age ranges?
Our youngest is our little ten-year-old over here, Chloe.
Hello, darlin'.
And the oldest?
And the oldest is 30.
Okay, so did you put Wolfpack together?
Yes, yeah.
Okay, how long have you guys been performing together?
Performing together, we started in 2018.
Yes.
And it was out of just, like, crews from all over Sydney.
Okay.
And then we just started bringing each other together
and we just decided to merge it.
Why now?
I mean, what's the big ambition for you guys?
The biggest goal for us right now
was just to change our lives right now.
(CHEERING)
I can see you just want to get on with it.
This is a big moment for you guys.

I get a phone call a year ago and someone said,
"Do you want to come to Australia

And I said, "Yeah, that would be amazing."
And I couldn't wait to discover whether Australia had talent.

I was about to run out there.
That was amazing.

When they walked out, it was like a force of energy that just hit me,

I just knew you were the golden buzzer for me.

I love passionate dancers.
Congratulations.
Shane, what'd you think?
You guys are a huge chance of winning this.
I'm shaking. Like...
Look at this.
I mean, I was looking for the weak link and I just couldn't find it.
There wasn't one. There wasn't one.
Flavour, every time, you switched it up.
Like, so many...
The girls, sassy, like, strong.
You guys were incredible.
Like, there was something really tribal about it
and kind of primal and ferocious.
Whoever the youngest is of the group,
frightening me down the front here.
(CHEERING) You are...
You're just amazing.
(CHEERING)
Well, street dance is very much my area of expertise.
(LAUGHTER)
I never, ever street danced.
No, look, what I love about you guys is your passion
because you came here not to audition,
you came here to perform and you came here to win.
And I love that.

You've gotta beat Wolfpack.

Hi, everybody. JUDGES: Hi!
Next...
We need to do some safety checks outside.
This is the greatest bellyflop in the world,
and I'm the only one in the world who can do this dive.
I specialise in really shallow water.
ALESHA: How shallow?
12 inches. What?
We're going to be putting some fire in that pool, too.
ALESHA: Are you kidding me?
(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)
Oh, he's gone...! (AUDIENCE CLAMOUR)

OFFICER: Okay, ladies and gentlemen,
if you do not need to be out here, please go inside.
We're not viewing this in person.
OFFICER: The safety needs to override us.
PRODUCER: We need to do some safety checks outside.
We've got everyone on the floor.
OFFICER: Alright, if you do not need to be out here,
please go inside.
Thank you very much.
It's not that high, don't worry about it.
Cruise, cruise, cruise, cruise, smack.
So, we're worried about if something happens up there,
you've got the vest on, yeah?
I'm the only one who can do this. Let's do it.
This is good TV.
He jumps off, there's going to be a pool of fire here.
This should win this.
(EXHALES)
John's going to run in.
He's going to put him out with an extinguisher.
Showtime.
Go time.
You look the part.
Oh, boy.
PRODUCER: Here we go, one!
They're ready for you.
(CHEERING)
(DRAMATIC MUSIC)
It's a yes from me.
(LAUGHTER)
SHANE: Tell us your name and where you're from.
My name is Professor Splash and I'm known around the world
as a high-platform shallow diver, and I'm from the United States.
When you say a high shallow diver,
do you mean you dive off diving boards into water
or an ocean or rivers or something, is that what it is?
Yes, yes, I'm diving from a high platform,
but I specialise in really shallow water.
ALESHA: How shallow?
12 inches. SHANE AND ALESHA: What?
Yes, and I'll be jumping roughly nine metres.
Are you kidding me? Hang on, what...
Yes. Oh, this show is exhausting.
(EXCITING MUSIC)
My name is Professor Splash.
I'm from Colorado in the USA and I am a belly-flop artist.
I'm the Evel Knievel of the kiddie pool.
I started diving when I was seven years old.
I looked at diving board, the high dive,
and I said, "I gotta go off that thing"
and I snuck up on the high dive.
I jumped and didn't know how to dive or anything, and I landed flat.
It's got the three main elements.
I've got raw diving talent,
I've got showmanship and, on the end, I've got physical peril.
I've broken my legs, I've broken my face.
I broke my jaw real bad, I broke my neck.
The most important thing is to get my torso to land flat.
There's a lot of physics that I've got to be able to,
you know, land this thing down the right way,
commit to the hit.
(EERIE MUSIC)
Your skeleton moves inside your body a little bit on the impact.
Yeah, people think I'm crazy.
Pain lasts for a minute,
but the glory lasts for a lifetime, so that's what keeps me going.
This is the greatest belly flop in the world,
and I'm the undisputed champion,
and I'm the only one in the world who can do this dive
safely and successfully, and do it live.
I know it's kooky, but it works.
You get one shot, you know, you get one shot
and then you're either the winner or outta here.
(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)
Not only do I face the real fears
of broken bones, abrasions, lacerations,
but we're going to be putting some fire in that pool, too,
so I risk the real possibility of being burnt to a crisp.
But, you know, I've been doing this a long time.
I'm... I will be setting a new world record.
I will be breaking my own world record.
So, the world record, so, is it
the amount of water that's in the bottom...?
The amount of water always stays the same.
Oh, right, okay. It's 30 centimetres.
Wow, that's a ruler.
It is a ruler.
Okay. And...
So, can I just ask, what can go wrong here?
I don't think about what can go wrong,
I think about the happy place.
When I get done with this thing, I have a new world record.
You people see something you've never seen before
that's just astounding,
and the pain lasts for a minute and the glory lasts for a lifetime.
Good luck. Well...
(CHEERING)
A bit like childbirth. (LAUGHTER)
We wish you no pain, and we wish you a lifetime of glory.
Thank you. ALESHA: Good luck.
Thank you. Thank you.
(APPLAUSE)
So, I'll just say quickly, audience, this is quite serious.
Nine metres into 12 inches of water.
30 centimetres.
(SAFETY OFFICERS CONVERSING)
Alright, so here comes Professor Splash.
He is on his way up to the top of the platform,
which is nine metres high,
and he is going to be jumping off into the pool,
which is only 30 centimetres deep.
Please, please, do not try this at home.
God, that's a long way up. That's a long way up.
What's the worst that could happen?
That much water? Yeah.
If he lands head-first...
(PENSIVE MUSIC)
Alright, guys, I think we'd better move back.
RICKI: My heart is racing a million miles an hour.
I can only imagine how he feels. Um...
I can't believe he's actually jumping into a pool
that's only 30 centimetres deep.
Fire!
Oh...
They are lighting the pool on fire.
Why does it have to be on fire?
I know, like the jump itself isn't enough.
I know.
(WIND HOWLS)
Oh, oh!
(AUDIENCE EXCLAIM)
Oh, he's gone...
(MUFFLED EXCLAMATIONS AND CHUCKLES)
SHANE: Yeah!
(CHEERING AND APPLAUSE)
Yes!
(CHEERING)
Yeah! Yeah! Where is he?
(CHEERING)
(APPLAUSE)
(SHANE LAUGHS)
Yeah!
Thank you.
Thank you very much.
Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.
Do we start with congratulations?
You just broke your own world record.
(CHEERING)
Thank you. Thank you.
That was a perfect dive.
Hopefully, I think I landed in the centre of the pool.
A little difficult at night and a little cold,
but, other than that, it was a spectacular dive.
Oh, wow.
Yeah, absolutely.
Professor Splash,
I would have loved to have seen the action replay in slo-mo, right?
Yeah. It happened so quick.
Hang on. Oh, here we go!
Oh, turn around. Here it is. Oh, it is slo-mo.
Here it is, here it is, here it is.
Wow! Oh!
(SHANE LAUGHS)
Wow! Wow!
(CHEERING AND APPLAUSE)
I can't believe it.
No, I guess that's kind of like
the true meaning of a death-defying stunt, really, isn't it?
- Yes, I'm a stuntman, not a daredevil.
I know what I'm doing. Yeah.
As you can see, it's extremely difficult to land flat
from nine metres, and new world record.
- Yeah, you did just that.
Well done.
(CHEERING)
I am so thrilled you came onto Australia's Got Talent
to share this incredible stunt with us.
You are one in a million.
Thank you so much. Thank you so much.
And I want one of those outfits
complete with a balaclava for a party I'm going to.
SHANE: Well, there's only one thing left to do, and that is to vote.
It's a yes from me.
(CHEERING)
It's a massive yes from me.
Thank you.
It's a yes from me.
It's a world-record-beating yes from me!
# Don't stop believin'
# Hold onto that feeling
# Streetlights people
# Whoa-oa. #
Professor Splash!
# Don't stop believin'. #
Wow, I thought that was unbelievable.
That guy over there. What? That looks crazy.
There are so many weird and wonderful people here today.
Agreed.
The great thing is to see
so many people getting a chance to show their talent.
Here we go. They're ready for you. Chookas.
(CHEERING)
Hello.
How are you?
I'm good, thank you, how are you?
I'm wonderful. What's your name, please?
My name is Katia.
And so why have you come onto Britain's Got Talent?
(LAUGHTER)
Oh, sorry.
(LAUGHTER LOUDENS)
(CHEERING)
Katia, he is still jetlagged.
Sorry, sorry. He hasn't had enough sleep yet.
I thought I was in the wrong place. I don't know.
Sorry, sorry.
I forgot to take my medication, I'm sorry.
No, why did you decide to come onto Australia's Got Talent?
Much better than Britain's Got Talent.
Well, I would love to show you my talent.
So, what is it you're going to do?
I'm going to skate.
I'm a figure skater.
But you only like very, very small rinks?
Yes. Exactly.
And is it dangerous?
I only do dangerous things.
Okay. Go on, girl.
So, what's the name you go under as an act?
An Ice Queen.
Ice Queen.
Ooh, yeah, I'd love an ice-cream if you...
Oh no, sorry, Ice Queen.
(LAUGHTER)
No, I think it's Ice Queen.
Ice Queen. (LAUGHTER)
# You're as cold as ice... #
I'm originally from Poland,
and I came to Australia when I was 16 years old.
I specialise in aerial acrobatics on ice.
There is so many things that could go wrong.
(CHUCKLES)
I'm not kidding, actually, it's dangerous.
It could take just a split second of losing your focus, really,
and that happened to me once and I fell and I was seriously injured.
I travel all over the world,
but I'm so happy to be home and show Australia my talent.
(CHEERING)
So, Ice Queen, the stage is yours.
(CHEERING)
So, that is the ice rink?
Yes, you could carry it around with you, don't you?
That's expensive carry-on luggage.

What a beautiful, magical display that was.
Feels like you're telling a story,
feels like you're connecting with an emotion.
It's more than just skill.
(APPLAUSE)
It was just beautiful,
and the fact that you were up there, and it was acrobatic,
and you were spinning around
and then you just hit the ice beautifully.
It was just... it really was wonderful to watch.
It was perfect. Perfect. Thank you.
I just can't believe how much you did with so little.
I can't imagine what you could do
on a full ice-skating rink at your disposal.
I thought it was magical. I loved it. Thank you so much.
Thank you, thank you.
(CHEERING AND APPLAUSE)
You basically had us all under your ice spell.
I felt mesmerised by it.
It was sophisticated, it was elegant, grateful.
You are so beautiful.
It was a strong audition, so I'm saying yes.
That's two yeses. It's a yes from me.
And it's a yes from me.
Ice Queen, you have four yeses!
(CHEERING AND APPLAUSE)
Thank you very much.
You did it. That was amazing!
'Cause, I think, sometimes people have the technique
but they don't then have the presence,
and she had it, I think.

Yeah, people are always telling me, "You look familiar.
"Have I seen you somewhere before?"
And I just say, "Mate, look, I've done a few acting things.
"Mostly on Australia's Most Wanted."

Some people might be watching this and thinking, "I know that guy."
You don't.

you haven't said it yet but you don't know me that well.
Nine of spades.

There's danger in my act.
That's all I can say, danger in my act.
I'm auditioning for Australia's Got Talent
because, basically, I really want to go on a journey,
and discover the real me.
How much prize money is it?
100,000?
Cash?
Oh!
I didn't wanna mention that but, I mean, that's why I'm here.
Magic can happen.
It just... happens.

So, how did you get into amazingly bad magic?
Well, I haven't, really.
(LAUGHTER)
This is just a start,
and the main reason I'm here is 'cause Jobkeeper's finished.
(LAUGHTER AND CHEERING)
It's a pretty big swing for your first attempt on the AGT stage.
Yeah, but it's fun, right? We're here for fun.
I love this show. 100%.
So, giving it a go, and, yeah, this is it.
Get ready. Get ready to be mildly entertained.
(LAUGHTER)
It may be good, I don't know. It's up to you.
Well I happen to know for a fact
that entertaining people is exactly what you do.
The stage is yours. Do what you do.
Thank you, Shane. Cheers, mate.

David, what colour's that?
It's a CD.
What colour?
Oh, uh, silver.
That's a trick answer.
It goes in here.
The doors are shut.
We say the magic words.
JUDGES: Abraca... No! They're not the magic words.
The magic words are oh, my God.

SHANE: Oh, my God!

Danger. We need something dangerous, yes?
Yes.
Razor blade.
Danger. Don't do this trick...
I'm a professional amateur.
Put the razor blade in one of my hands, ladies and gentlemen,
very, very easy, this game.
All you have to do is guess, 50/50,
which hand is the sharp razor blade in?
Guess!
(CHEERING AND SQUEALING)
Forget that trick.
Oh, I need...
For this next trick,
I need Ricki-Lee, ladies and gentlemen, for the trick!
Ricki-Lee!
Bring her out, Ricki-Lee!
Stand right here, Ricki. What a star.
Don't hurt me!
No, no, no, this is... Don't set me on fire!
Oh, you won't, you won't. You're gonna love this.
I'm very flammable.

Ladies and gentlemen, she is good.
Put your hands together for Ricki-Lee.

Goes in.
(DRAMATIC MUSIC)
Oh, yeah, look at this.
This is now the big finish.
Most magicians say that
so you know when to clap the loudest at the end of the show.
This is it.
What colour's that, Ricki? Yellow.
Yellow. You got red.
Stupid magic move.

Confetti.
Perfect.

Oh, my God!
No, not oh, my God, oh, my God. (PERSIAN ACCENT)

She is magic!

Ricki-Lee! You're a magician!
Please...
Thank you so much.
(CHEERING AND APPLAUSE)
Yes!
(CHEERING AND APPLAUSE)
Can I...?
Can I tell you the funniest thing...
Oh, feedback.
..is we've had a few magicians on this show.
Are you taking notes? (LAUGHTER)
We've had a few magicians on this show
who've done terrible magic, but they don't include comedy.
That was what was great about it.
What did you think, Alesha?
Yeah, no, I love that you just came out and took the mickey, basically,
out of magicians because, sometimes,
you know, we often spot things, don't we, that we maybe shouldn't.
So, to see you just be blatant about it was really refreshing.
You are definitely the World's Best Worst Magician.
Thank you, Alesha, thank you. Appreciate that.
It's so nice to see your face, I have to say.
But I was slightly confused because, yes,
there were some awful tricks, there was some great magic there
that still had me bewildered,
so I really don't know how to feel about it.
Kate, easy. Oh, my God.
(LAUGHTER)
That's how simple it is.
Oh, my God. That's it.
(CHEERING AND APPLAUSE)
Instant catch-phrase - oh, my God.
I've always liked, you know, silly comedy acts.
God, I just think, if I was like, you know,
ten or 11 watching this, I'd be thinking, "I wanna be you."
That was brilliant.
(CHEERING AND APPLAUSE) Thank you, David. Appreciate it.
Thank you.
Ah, mate, it's pretty simple.
We've gotta do a vote and I'm gonna get it started with a yes from me.
Thank you, man.
I'm saying yes.
And it's a yes from me. Thank you.
Oh, my God, you got four yeses.
Yes. Yes!
(CHEERING AND APPLAUSE)
I'll get the trolley. Okay, thank you.
(CHEERING AND APPLAUSE)
Oh, my God, that was amazing!
Oh, my God.
Thank you so much for your help. We did it.
We did it. You're the World's Best Worst Magician.
The World's Best Worst, that's it. With the best assistant.
That was amazing.
Do you think that a kid can win AGT this year?
CHILD PERFORMERS: AGT! AGT!
Well, I think we've got an advantage on the oldies.

(CHEERING)
I'm Aiden, I'm 11 years old
and I'm a magician from the Sunshine Coast.
I'm here to become Australia's Got Talent's youngest ever winner.
Now, David, you chose the four of spades.
Yeah.
I want you to hold onto that for me,
as I show you that all these other cards are different.
Yep.
Now, I want you to take that and do not look at it,
place it in between your two hands for me, please.
Now, David, wouldn't it be something
if that card in your hands was not the four of spades?
Yeah.
Can you please turn that card over and tell everyone what it is?
It's the eight of spades.
(CHEERING)
Ricki-Lee, can you please show everyone what your card is?
(AUDIENCE CLAMOUR)
Wow.
Thank you.
Just the fact that you're 11 years old on this stage,
with the courage and confidence to do this kind of act, I applaud you.
# Go get it girlfriend. #

Oh, look at this little pickle.
Hi, everybody. JUDGES: Hi!
I'm Abernath, I'm ten years old, and I'm the calendar kid.
I can tell the days of the week from 2000 to 2030.
SHANE: Well, everyone here would know this,
which is National Sausage Roll Day.
It's June the 5th.
When would the next Saturday be of June the 5th,
so I can go and have sausage rolls?
The next one would be on 2027.
He's right!

Wow.
I'm mesmerised by your playing. It's extraordinary.
That is a hard thing to do,
and the fact that you're doing it at your age is just wonderful.
I'm going to kick off the voting because it's pretty obvious.
The answer from me is yes.
So, I'm gonna say yes.
Thank you. DAVID: Well done.
It's absolutely incredible.
You have four yeses.
Well done!
You're a musical genius. (CHEERING AND APPLAUSE)
It's a big yes from me.
I might be little, but my moves on stage are big.
My name is Savannah, I'm 11 years old
and I'm a dancer-acrobat from the Central Coast, New South Wales.
Do you want to have a little sneak peek out there?
GIRL: Go, Savannah!
She's got fans in the house.
No more sweets for any of these people, please.
Who's that out in the audience?
All my dance friends.
All your dance friends have come to watch you?
Amazing.
PRODUCER: Okay, standing by, here we go.
Okay, off you go. Good luck, gorgeous.
(CHEERING)
Oh, hello.
Hello. Hi.
How are you doing? Good, thanks.
What's your name? My name's Savannah.
And how old are you?
I'm 11 years old. 11 years old.
And where are you from?
I'm from the Central Coast, from Wil Sabin Dance Academy.
Lovely.
(CHEERING)
I presume you're going to dance for us today?
Yes, I'm going to be doing a dancing and acrobat routine
called Black Swan.
Lovely.
And you've got your fan club in today.
Yeah. (GIGGLES)
I can feel the energy.
There's a lot of positive vibes.
We're all rooting for you, so the stage is yours.
Go for it. Thank you so much.
Good luck.
She's so nervous, the little thing. She's nervous today.

Whoo! She did it!
That was amazing!
Yes!
Wow, wow, wow, wow, wow.
Kate, what did you think?
I just keep thinking the word 'ferocious'.
The performance was just so incredibly powerful.
I couldn't take my eyes off you.
I just thought it was fantastic.
(CHEERING AND APPLAUSE)
David, you were on your feet.
Yeah, I thought it was extraordinary.
From the costume, the choreography, the music, everything.
Not only are you super talented, I thought it was thought out
absolutely brilliantly, and that's why I was on my feet, so well done.
Thank you.
You're such a strong dancer.
I've got to say, it's cliche, but you're a pocket rocket.
You're just...from the second the music started, you went with it.
I think you're fantastic. Well done, mate.
You should be very proud. Thank you.
Yeah, I really enjoyed it.
I just think you're a fierce warrior,
you deserve to be there, you belong there.
Thank you.
And thank you so much for auditioning on the show.
What a find. Thank you.
You're a little star. So, I'm going to kick this off with a yes.
Thank you so much.
It's a yes from me, Savannah.
It is, of course, a yes from me.
Shane? You've got four yeses!

DAVID: The trick on this show, for a dance group,
is to be remembered, and, boy, are we gonna remember you guys.
# Ain't nobody... #
If I'd known you could play the guitar like that,
I would have got my claws into you back then.

(ROCK MUSIC)
Let's hear it!
I'm Sean Jarvis from Perth.
I'm 53 years of age and I am the founder
and one of the stunt riders with Freestyle Now.
What I love about what we do,
whether it be scooting, skating or BMX,
is the freedom that it gives you.
It's called freestyle for a reason.
It's a free expression of your style.
Coming through on that front wheel,
back wheel in the air, pow-pow-pow-pow-pow!
ALESHA: Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh... Danger, danger, danger!
Freestyle is dangerous,
and you never know what the outcome's gonna be
when you leave the ground.
You've gotta really know what you're doing.
If you don't know what you're doing,
you could break legs, bones, dislocate fingers.
We have a very democratic way
of choosing our participation from the audience.
Basically, it goes like this.
Eenie-meenie-minie-David.
(LAUGHTER)
I just don9t want to show you guys up with my BMXing skills.
Things are gonna happen, like, now!
Oh! Now!
And now!
Sean, I think, with you as the leader,
these guys can never go wrong.
You are such a positive, energetic frontman.
(CHEERING)
Someone get Nicole Kidman on the phone
and let her know the BMX Bandits are back.
You got four yeses. Well done.
Yeah!
Whoo-whoo-whoo-whoo-whoo-whoa!
# School's in session
# Get your books out but even if you don't you'll be read. #
My name is Dale Woodbridge-Brown,
I'm 33 years old and I'm a performer from Mungindi in New South Wales.
I am a proud Kamilaroi man,
and I am here to step out onto the stage to show young Aboriginal kids
that this genre is something that they are built for.
Coming from a small town and being gay and Aboriginal,
it's just... I didn't really fit those moulds of sports star,
but I know I wanted to be something.
I just had no idea what it could be
because I didn't have that representation before me.
And that was something I found outside of school, later in life.
# There's no way to forget it
# No shade no shade no shade
# Just sit back watch me slay. #
This is my 11th year performing.
My career has taken me to some really wonderful places.
I went to New York and performed on Broadway, which was pretty cool.
I've performed in London, in Madrid, Edinburgh, New Zealand,
in every state and territory in Australia.
I never would have got the opportunity to go to those places
if I didn't do what I do.
Me being here on the Australia's Got Talent stage
is first, representation, and, second, to just have fun.
# Watch me slay
# Watch me slay slay slay. #

Ah, Dale Woodbridge-Brown.
Well, welcome, Dale. And how old are you?
I'm 33.
Okay, you're feeling a bit nervous?
A little bit. Little bit?
I think I just...yeah. Just... Yeah.
Okay. One of them, maybe.
Okay. Alright. Think I'm alright.
Now, where have you come from?
Ah, I'm a proud Kamilaroi man from Mungindi.
Yeah. (CHEERING)
It's a small country town on the border of NSW and Queensland.
Now, tell us about your outfit, and these hot shoes.
Ooh, it has my totem on the shoulder.
The totem tracks on the arm,
and then our Dreaming just down here, all in sequins.
Absolutely beautiful.
Love a sequin.
Yeah! And the pink.
(APPLAUSE)
I feel like I don't really want to ask you too much about your act.
No, I think I just need to do it.
I reckon, too. Yeah.
Do it. Yeah.

DALE: Thank you.
Dale, you were so much fun.
I don't know what you were worried about.
It was so, so entertaining,
and the fact that you can crack a whip and...
What'd you think, Alesha?
Well, I actually...do you mind if I say what you said?
Shane turned to me and he said,
"I don't know what I'm watching but I absolutely love it.'
And I think that just sums it up completely.
(CHEERING)
From the second you started,
everyone was like, "What's gonna happen next?"
And I'm still not sure if I know what happened.
But I feel great about it.

It's a cracking yes from me.
It's a yes from me.
(CHEERING)
Well, I...
Um... (LAUGHTER)
Dale, it's the biggest, juiciest yes I've ever given in my life!

Are we excited? Yes.
Just start stretching, jumping around, warming up.
Alright guys, nice clean skills, confidence, okay?
Nice and sharp, nice and strong.
Point your little feet, stretch your little legs.

Hey!
(CHEERING, EXCITING MUSIC)
Hello! How are you?
Good, thank you.
Welcome to Australia's Got Talent.
It's lovely to see you all today.
So, tell me a little bit about the group, what's your name
and where you're from.
PERFORMER: We are... PERFORMERS: Team Adrenaline.
We are acrobatic gymnasts.
Being an acrobat definitely takes a lot of dedication.
Constant training, no holidays.
Wait till they throw you, then twist later.
Yeah.
My name's Steve.
My name's Mel, and we're the coaches of Team Adrenaline.
Team Adrenaline is a family-based acrobatic gymnastics club.
I started with my sister ten years ago, maybe, now.
Good, make sure you're even, guys,
and make sure that your platform is centred.
# Ready set go
# Just watch us fly fly fly. #
These athletes are like a second family to us.
I think our passion feeds off onto these kids
and they see and they just practice until their, you know, little hearts
can't practice anymore, and it's pretty amazing to see.
You know, I feel like they're sometimes like our own kids,
and it's pretty special.
# Hey hey! #
(CHEERING)
If you win, who gets to keep the money?
(LAUGHTER)
What do you kiddies want?
What would you do with the money if you were to win?
Um, buy some lollies.
Oh! (LAUGHTER)

Oh, my goodness.
Well, look, we are on your side, we want you to have the best time.
Good luck.

Well done, Team Adrenaline.
Shane, what did you think?
Well, you've certainly earnt some lollies, at the very least...
(LAUGHTER)
..because you guys were fantastic.
And you all did the heavy lifting, and some of you quite literally.
I thought it was fantastic. It was perfect. Well done.
(CHEERING)
Kate, what did you think?
I just think this was a performance
that all came together so beautifully.
The music was really emotive and powerful.
The make-up and the costumes, all of those bendy bodies.
I was so impressed. Well done, guys. Great performance.
Thank you.
(CHEERING)
I was really impressed
because there were things I'd never seen done before,
especially that bit where you were all sort of joined up together
and sort of moving like a giant snake or something.
And I think the trick on this show, for a dance group,
is to be remembered, and, boy, are we gonna remember you guys.
Incredible. Whoo!
(CHEERING)
I think what I enjoyed the most about you...
Well, I actually wrote down the word 'focused'.
You had the most serious faces of concentration,
but in the most disciplined, beautiful way.
It was fantastic.
So, I was really, really impressed
and I'm gonna start the voting by saying yes.
Shane?
It's a definite yes from me.
And it's a yes from me.
You have four yeses! Well done!
Yeah!
(UPBEAT POP SONG PLAYS)
Wow, you smashed it!
Good job! Well done!
That was amazing. Four yeses, guys.
That was brilliant. You couldn't fault that, could you?
No, you couldn't fault it. It was incredible.
Very well thought out, the whole thing.
It kind of moved, didn't it?
When she sat down with that...
balancing that little girl on her arm, that was the best bit for me.
So strong.

RICKI: Next...
Mate, were you involved in some of the terrible fires
we've had over the last few years?
Yeah, I was.
I remember driving into that smoke.
It feels like Armageddon.
Now's my chance to get back to what I love, which is music.
His voice is magic.
You know, this is me.
('RIPTIDE' BY VANCE JOY PLAYS)
My name's Sam Stevenson.
I'm 41.
I come from the Far South Coast, New South Wales,
a place called Tura Beach.
A long way up to the big smoke today,
but I grew up in the country, in the Snowy Mountains,
and I really enjoy that kind of friendliness
that comes from the country.
It's nice.
# Lady running down to the riptide
I've always been a musician, ever since I was very young.
My mother was a music teacher in Bombala, where I grew up,
and we had music as part of our life through my childhood.
I've been a professional musician for, oh, 20 years or so,
in amongst other jobs, as most musicians doo.
RICKI: Oh, one step closer. Here we go.
So close now. You feeling alright?
Yeah, good. I'm good. I'm ready.
How are you guys feeling?
I think more nervous than him.
You look the most nervous.
Hey, they're ready for you. Take a deep breath.
Give him a hug.
See you, guys.
It's what I've always dreamt about.
You know, this is me.
This is who I am.
Good luck.
I just want to show people what I can do.

He's got some fans out there.
Yeah, the whole family. Whoa.
Hey, mate, how are you doing?
Very well, thank you.
Tell us about yourself. What's your name? Where are you from?
So, my name's Sam Stevenson,
from the Far South Coast of New South Wales,
a little town called Tura Beach, north of Merimbula.
Beautiful.
Is this what you do for a job? Are you an artist or performer?
Look, I was prior to COVID happening.
I think COVID destroyed a lot of people in the music
and performing arts world.
But I do all sorts of stuff.
I'm a volunteer firefighter. Oh.
And...
Can I say, on behalf of Australia, thank you.
(APPLAUSE) Cheers, mate.
Mate, were you involved in some of the terrible fires we've had
over the last few years?
Yeah, I was.
Tathra fires two or three years ago, which we lost 70 houses in.
SHANE: Yeah.
And then the 2019-20 fires, I was on a truck for about five weeks.
During that campaign, it was kind of all around my town.
(EMOTIONAL MUSIC PLAYS)
There was a few days there where the sky went completely black.
It was midday and it was pitch black,
and you had your headlights on
and you could only see, sort of, four to five metres in front of you.
It feels like Armageddon.
I remember driving into that smoke
and there's an emotional roller-coaster
that you go through in terms of fear that all firefighters face
when you're going into something really, really intense like that.
But I don't dwell on stuff like that.
I try and move forward.
Now's my chance to get back to what I love, which is music.
Music stopped, but you had to get on with it, yeah.
(APPLAUSE)
My song that I'm going to be singing is When The War Is Over by Ian Moss.
Yeah.
Beautiful song.
Good luck with it, mate. Thank you very much.

Okay, well you know how to do that.
Mate, that was fantastic.
I loved it, and I've heard that sung live,
and know the man that sings it.
That was fantastic. Thank you. Thank you so much.
I loved how delicate and sensitive it was
at the beginning of the song,
and then we got to hear that beautiful, raspy, soulful voice
that you have.
You were giving me Mick Hucknall, Simply Red vibes as well.
Yeah. Yeah, I really like you.
You are very special.
Thank you so much. Yeah.
Thank you.
That was just brilliant.
It feels like it's an Australian anthem,
and you just did it so beautifully,
and we should have known you were going to do it so beautifully
because all of the things you spoke about were so heartfelt,
whether it was fighting fires or your family side of stage.
So, you're obviously a really great bloke.
Thank you.
Kate... Kate, we actually went to school together.
What? I don't know if you remember.
No, we went to school together?
I was a few years younger than you at school.
You wouldn't remember me, but... sorry, I shouldn't have said that.
Oh, my goodness. Yeah, I was totally older, yeah.
We didn't...we didn't date or anything?
No, we didn't, we didn't at all.
He was a few years younger. Hurlstone Ag, it was good times.
Oh, my goodness, if I'd known you could play the guitar like that,
I would have got my claws into you back then.
(LAUGHTER)
Okay, it's not a dating show.
(LAUGHTER)
Look, it was one of the first times today
where you're not watching an audition anymore,
you're just watching a performance,
by someone who just knows exactly what they're doing,
and you immediately just relax and go, "Wow."
And it's also one of those acts where you think,
well, that was brilliant, but I could sit here all night
and listen to you play and sing because it was just so magical.
So, for me, this is a very easy and gigantic yes.
Thank you. (CHEERING)
No question about it.
Yes.
It's a yes from me. Thank you.
Mate, I'm gonna speak on behalf of the entire audience.
We'd love to see you again.
You just got four yeses, mate. We'll see you soon.
Yes! Come on!
Thank you so much. It's been incredible.
Thank you, that's all I can say. Thank you.
Yeah... Yay, Sam.
