He started balancing one fiery wheel, and then gradually amped up the intensity with three wheels spinning on his feet and forehead. As the act went on, the flames grew bigger and the tricks got even more jaw-dropping and dangerous. For the grand finale, he hurled a massive flaming wheel into the air, which burst like a giant sparkler as he caught it with stunning precision.  </p><div><iframe width="913" height="543" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/gg7KVoS1BLk" title="JB Bangcaya leaves the judges speechless with his fiery balancing act | Pilipinas Got Talent 2025" frameBorder="0" allowfullscreen=""></iframe></div><p>After the breathtaking performance, JB shared his simple wish for his parents to finally see him on national television. It has been three years since he last saw them in their hometown in Occidental Mindoro, as he had no means to return home.  </p><p>The power judges—Eugene Domingo, Kathryn Bernardo, Donny Pangilinan, and Freddie “FMG” Garcia—were visibly stunned. They assured JB that not only are his parents proud, but so is the entire Occidental Mindoro. They commended his one-of-a-kind talent, noting the sheer strength it takes to perfect such an act. After all, you can&#x27;t balance flaming wheels without getting burned sometimes, but that can&#x27;t stop JB from showcasing what he&#x27;s got. It was also highlighted how he turns discarded wheels, which is nothing but junk to most, into the centerpiece of his fiery performance.  </p><p>Thrilled, Donny said this was the kind of spectacle he had been waiting for as a judge. FMG mentioned it was his first time witnessing such a routine. Kathryn was moved to tears, overwhelmed by the intensity and amazement of it all. Eugene called it world-class, and praised JB for brandishing the character of a true Filipino—someone willing to risk it all, scars and burns included, just to show the world what he’s made of. </p><p>JB earned yeses from the first three judges to comment. When it was Judge Eugene’s turn to speak, she closed with her message with, “JB, kalimutan mo na lahat ng pinagdaanan mo. Kung nasugatan ka man, nagkapaso ka man… gusto kong ibigay ang bagong pag-asa,&quot; before she hit the Golden Buzzer.  </p><p>Gold confetti rained down as JB soaked in the moment.  </p><p>Truly, Filipino talent burns bright like a fire.  </p><p>In the April 12 episode, we also got to witness the feel-good song and dance number of the all-mom group “Spice Moms,” the cool bubble magic of Julio the Bubbleman, the vibrant synchronized routine of AEHNS, and the su-FUR adorable dog tricks of Milo and Friends. </p><div><iframe width="913" height="543" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/u_HMuaS5ljU" title="Superstar Judges, natures sa performance ng Spice Moms | Pilipinas Got Talent 2025" frameBorder="0" allowfullscreen=""></iframe></div><div><iframe width="913" height="543" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/CX3MY2xXX2w" title="Julio the Bubbleman amazes the crowd with his dazzling bubble magic | Pilipinas Got Talent 2025" frameBorder="0" allowfullscreen=""></iframe></div><div><iframe width="913" height="543" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/bDSIct4pmqM" title="AENHS wows the judges with their electrifying, color-filled synchronized routine | PGT 2025" frameBorder="0" allowfullscreen=""></iframe></div><div><iframe width="913" height="543" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/bK_VqNzLh8w" title="Tristan, Milo &amp; Friends impress the Judges with remarkable dog tricks | Pilipinas Got Talent 2025" frameBorder="0" allowfullscreen=""></iframe></div><p>Stay tuned for more entertaining, world-class acts on “<a href="https://www.abs-cbn.com/entertainment/studios/tv/pilipinas-got-talent-7"><strong><u>Pilipinas Got Talent</u></strong></a>” Season 7, airing at 7:15 pm every weekend on Kapamilya Channel, Kapamilya Online Live (KOL), and A2Z.
