What should have been a simple magic trick has gone horribly, horribly wrong for one breakfast television host.

Appearing on Polish television showQuestion for Breakfastlast week,a semi-finalist ofPoland’s Got Talentasked host Marzena Rogalska to participate in his on-air magic trick by slamming her hand down on one of three paper bags.

As part of the trick, one of the bags had a sharp rusted nail inside. And because life is cruel and unkind, it was this bag that Rogalska picked.

Within moments, Rogalska has let out an ominous scream and is curled over in pain.
