7'3" hopeful George the Giant was injured while rehearsing an act in which he was wrapped in chains and suspended upside down from the ceiling.
He was treated by paramedics at the scene before being taken to a nearby hospital due to "complications", reports TMZ.
George later made it to the live taping of the show, where he told judges Piers Morgan, Sharon Osbourne and David Hasselhoff that he had lost consciousness and was rushed to the hospital during rehearsals.
However, an unimpressed Morgan described the stunt as "childish" and "embarrassing", adding: "I think you would’ve done better staying in the hospital."
