America's Got Talent premiered its thirteenth season on Tuesday night, and the last amazing performance of the night won host Tyra Banks' Golden Buzzer on NBC.

Zurcaroh, a huge Austrian acrobatic dance act comprised of children, teens and young adults, took the America's Got Talent stage last night and performed a jaw-dropping routine for judges Howie Mandel, Melanie "Mel B" Brown, Heidi Klum and Simon Cowell.

Zurcaroh dressed in ripped camouflage and executed breathtaking displays of gymnastic and acrobatic skills.

Despite the group's brilliant and complicated spectacle -- which included death-defying stunts and balancing tricks -- the members are nonprofessionals. Skills or no skills, people of all ages are apparently welcome to join the group as long as they have a love for the art of dance.

It didn't take long for the audience and judging panel to get up on their feet and cheer, especially when small children were thrown high into the air for twists, turns and spins.

The most expressive of the four judges happened to be Howie when it became time to critique the audition.

"Wow! Wow! Wow! That's the -- I mean, we see dancing, we see tumbling, that's, wow!" Howie marveled.

"For all of you to be that in sync, I'm wow too! That was on point," Mel said.

"You are unbelievable. There's kids flying all over the air. I can't even believe how you caught them. I was in Simon's lap for a second because one [kid] did I don't know how many spins. It was absolutely incredible. Loved it. Wow!" Heidi gushed.

And then Simon paid the group a huge compliment, saying, "There's something in the air right now. I've done this a long time, and that was honestly one of the most incredible things I've ever seen on any of these shows. It was breathtaking, and I'm absolutely honored you came on our show."

Just as the judges were ready to unanimously vote Zurcaroh through to the next round, Tyra walked out from backstage.

"Hold up! Hold up!" Tyra yelled. "I am collecting my breath and I just, I need some oxygen right now! I'm, like, freaking out right now. This is so crazy that you know what I have to do!"

Tyra then reached over to the judges' table and pressed the Golden Buzzer, which automatically sends Zurcaroh to the live shows.

Gold confetti then rained down on the act as they cheered, cried and hugged each other. Their American dream was really starting to come true.

"I am thrilled for all of you," Simon noted. "That's what the Golden Buzzer is all about."
