Sherlock actress Amanda Abbington's daredevil fiancé has been left paralysed after a TV stunt went terribly wrong. Jonathan Goodwin from Pembrokeshire was reportedly crushed between two burning cars which were suspended some 70ft in the air.
The 42-year-old stuntman had also been hanging high above the ground whilst wearing a straitjacket from which he was meant to escape. He'd been rehearsing in Atlanta for an episode of America's Got Talent: Extreme last October - on which Simon Cowell is a judge - when he fell to the ground after bouncing off the bonnet of one of the cars.
The 2019 Britain's Got Talent contestant and 2020 America's Got Talent semi-finalist suffered a catalogue of injuries, including a severed spinal cord and third-degree burns. He was airlifted to hospital and had to spend months recovering.
