An America's Got Talent hopeful left Simon Cowell and the other judges gob-smacked.

John Hetlinger, 82, a retired aerospace engineer and former Navy pilot, shocked everyone when he took to the stage to perform Bodies by American heavy metal band, Drowning Pool.

Cowell and his fellow judges, Heidi Klum, Howie Mandel and Spice Girl, Mel B, all looked horrified and bewildered when Hetlinger started singing the hard-rock song, which featured the lyrics, "let the bodies hit the floor".

"You are an animal, and I mean that in the utmost respect," Cowell said, "I absolutely love you, John."
