The peacock man, a contestant who had tried out multiple times before, wasn't the only controversial act that mystified the judges and the audience.
A Japanese man named Mr. Cherry tried to break the world record for breaking the most walnuts with his butt.
The current record was held by a man who broke 71 walnuts in 30 seconds.
World record: A Japanese man named Mr. Cherry tried to break the world record for breaking the most walnuts with his butt with his assistant Chikki
Cherry, who needed to crush 72 to break the world record, leaped butt first across the stage crushing 79 walnuts one at a time with his weight and beating the world record.
Sofia didn't think that was enough of a talent to send him through and decided to go on stage herself, in her black velvet crystal embellished outfit, and tried unsuccessfully to crush a walnut herself with her butt.
'It really hurt,' said Sofia. 'It's impossible.'

Nobody does glamour quite like Sofia Vergara.
The America's Got Talent judge looks incredible here, teaming a strapless black and gold embellished top by Oscar de la Renta with a simple pair of tailored trousers and strappy platform heels.
The detail on this top is incredible. Check out the gold leaf embroidery and beaded fringe trim on one side! The wrap over effect is super flattering too.
Unfortunately, it's from a few seasons ago, meaning it has now sold out, but click (right) to get a closer look.
Then head to our edit below to steal Sofia's style, with options ranging from SHEIN to Safiyaa. Happy shopping!
