Mar. 16, 2025

Mary and Tyce Nielsen of Duo Transcend were back on theAmerica’s Got Talentstage after astunt gone wrong.

The married couple from Salt Lake City, Utah, whose blindfolded trapeze trick failed in the Judge Cuts round, performed their high-flying act for the second time during Tuesday’s episode.

“Hands down, one of the best acts of the night,” judgeHeidi Klumsaid. “I was so worried because the last time you did fall to the ground. It didn’t happen again, it was perfect. It was fantastic.”

Meanwhile, judge Howie Mandel joked: “I’ve been with my wife for 40 years and there’s no way, not even 10 percent, of what [Mary] trusts in you. I was looking forward to you with fear and trepidation to see you redeem yourself from that fall. There’s so much trust, so much passion, so amazing.”

When Mary plunged to the ground during an episode that aired last month, audiences and judges were heard screaming. But what was more horrifying: her mother and 2-year-old son, Jaxx, were watching from the audience.

“In practice, everything went fine, and then during the audition, the worst possible thing happened,” Mary previouslyexplainedtoEntertainment Tonight. “The trapeze got a little bit of swing, the fire, so we both were sweatier than usual. But even if you took that away, there’s still the possibility that that could happen. So, it’s just something that happened.”
