Aaron Wheelz was born with Spina Bifida and confined to a wheelchair at the age of six, but he has never let his disability stop him from living life to the extreme. In fact, he modified his wheelchair to compete in BMX races and continues to do insane tricks. Wheelz attempted one of these stunts during a taping of America's Got Talent Extreme and tried to do a flip after coming down a halfpipe. He started off with all the momentum in the world but came down face first when attempting to land. The moment was gruesome, but his bravery got him to the next round.

"Here on America's Got Talent: Extreme, everyone here is crazy. So for my performance, I'm pulling out all the stops. I've put in a lot of hours, a lot of crashes. It feels like I've been training my whole life for this," Wheelz said before his stunt.

Despite earning a Golden Buzzer to the next round from judge Nikki Bella, the Las Vegas native decided to try the flip again to prove he could do it. While the audience watched on in a mix of fear and anticipation, the young man pulled off the trick flawlessly and didn't let his initial setback ruin his day. It's going to be interesting to see what this guy does next.
