Tengrinews.kz - Kazakhstan strongman from Akmola region Sergey Tsyrulnikov told about his trip to the USA, participation in the show America's Got Talent, shared his plans for his own show and told about his most difficult trick.
According to Sergey, he received a lot of invitations to talent shows in China, Germany, Great Britain and other countries. One of the latest offers was to take part in America's Got Talent, which the athlete accepted. He mentioned, that it is the most popular show in the world at the moment.
"Preparation for America's Got Talent began a month and a half before my participation. The show organizers invited me, helped with the visa, and covered the flight, accommodation, and meals for three days. Despite this, the costs were significant since I spent around 14 days in America, where the cost of living is much higher and everything is more expensive," Sergey said about his stay in America.

Sergey shared details about the filming process of America's Got Talent.
"The show was at a very high level. Each participant was assisted by a crew of five people. The organization was excellent, even compared to other shows I've participated in," Tsyrulnikov said.
Sergey also discussed which of his tricks was the most challenging.
"I pulled a 179-ton locomotive. It wasn't too difficult because there was ample preparation for the pull. Holding back four horses is also not very hard. The only challenge was that it was somewhat dangerous.
The most challenging trick for me, mentally, might sound funny, but it involves bending coins and straightening top-quality world horseshoes thicker than one centimeter. It's very tough," shared Tsyurulnikov about his most difficult stunt.
At a performance in America, the Kazakh strongman revealed his dreams of promoting his own show.
“My show will feature not only power stunts, but also the heroic history of Kazakhstan, the culture of strength and the ideas of our heroes. I will perform power stunts of figures such as Kazhymukan Munaitpasov and Baluan Sholak and tell their stories. The show is designed for young people so that they know their heroes and are brought up on their culture,” Sergey shared his plans and goals.
The Kazakhstani’s TikTok account has over 4 million followers. In America, he was often recognized and asked for photos.
Sergey explains that his popularity in the US came well before the show, as he had given interviews to Western media and was mentioned by famous people. For example, a video featuring reactions to Sergey’s stunts appeared on the YouTube channel of Eddie Hall, the 'Circus strongman has insane strength'.
Over 14 days in the USA, about 20 people recognized him, and his videos garnered around 90 million views. Currently, Tsyrulnikov holds several personal and world records, including: world record for bending calibrated horseshoes, world record for inflating hot water bottles, Kazakhstan record for bending frying pans (10 in 2 minutes), record for tying nails into knots (12 nails in six knots in 1 minute 41 seconds).
