Musa Botha, South Africa’s Britain’s Got Talent finalist, left millions of locals super proud after his performance on the talent show last week Sunday saw him get a standing ovation.

27-year-old Musa’s leg was amputated after he was diagnosed with a bone cancer called osteosarcoma in 2006 – he was just eight years old.
