Olajide “JJ” Olatunji, better known as KSI, said: “Oh my God, I thought it was fake but it’s a real sword!”

The hour-long Sidemen's Got Talent episode has been viewed more than six millions times.

Johnny then went on to perform one of his signature stunts, lifting a beer keg with his ear piercings.

Unfortunately this caused Miniminter to press his buzzer, he said: “I just want to clear it up. It makes me very uneasy so I had to press my buzzer.

"We actually reacted to you the other day. We saw you on video and just thought wow.”
