Jannick Holste rhapsodized about judge Heidi Klum and dancing in his pre-audition chat on Americas Got Talent . (Watch the video below.)

But he failed to mention magic the central part of his performance.

In an Early Release clip posted by AGT on Monday, the element of surprise boosted the buoyant Germans illusion act. The 19-year-old made his backup dancers appear out of seemingly nowhere to panelist Klums song Chai Tea with Heidi .

Judge Howie Mandel was confused at first. Simon Cowell flashed a few of his signature smirks during the performance, but ultimately gave it a Simon-esque thumbs-up.

Fantastically good and fantastically bad at the same time, he said. Horrendous, but it kinda worked.
