Frank Miles will go far.

Frank Miles will go far. He’s entertaining, a little dangerous, although he makes it look easy. What the hell he’s going to do for an encore in Vegas is anyone’s guess but he has agreed to try additional stunts that could kill him. He sounds like a fun guy too.

Frank: AGT says I can't talk about the show.

I tried contacting Frank Miles through his website. He couldn't answer any of my questions about America's Got Talent because of a bunch of legal stuff he had to sign with the show. Oh well, I tried. He was really nice though.

"Coolest demonstration of its kind"

nj.com, a website that covers - you guessed it - New Jersey, also has some excellent national television reporting and commentary. Here's what Karl de Vries of the Star-Ledger had to say about Frank Miles:
Miles’ act, in which he juggled three 500,000-volt stun guns, was the coolest demonstration of its kind on the night.
“That’s enough juice to knock a grown man off his feet,” he boasted.
To up the ante, Miles eventually stepped into a tub of water as he juggled the stun guns in the air, “shocking” the judges.
“Can we assume, Frank, that if we bring you back, there will be more attempts to kill yourself on the show?” Morgan inquired. The answer was yes.

"That's Entertainment" - Los Angeles Times

"I will confess that I was charmed by Frank Miles, the juggler who plays with stun guns. It wasn't his death-defying act that I enjoyed but his showmanship and patter, his little jokes about peeing on himself and being drunk. I loved that he started juggling as a way to deal with his fear of people, and I loved that he thought to add the little touch of the rubber ducky to the pool of water he stood in as he juggled. That's entertainment."

Frank Miles full segment on America's Got Talent

I found video of Frank's complete appearance on America's Got Talent, including the interview before he performed. I can't believe they cut to commercial just as he threw the first stun gun in the air!
