Imagine your grandmother or great-grandmother salsa dancing, being propelled in the air, doing daring twists and turns, sliding across the floor and being flipped and lifted over the shoulders of her dancing partner who is 40 years her junior.

While that may be a wish for some of our Abuelitas, that's the reality for 79-year-old Sarah "Paddy" Jones, who left the highly critical Simon Cowell, the panel of judges and the audience speechless and in awe during a recent episode of Britain's Got Talent.

Jones, who tears up the floor as if she's still in her twenties, is from Stourbridge, West Midlands, England. She brought the razzle and dazzle to the Britain's Got Talent stage with her partner, Nico Espinosa.

The spunky, almost-octogenarian won the Spanish talent show Tu Si Que Vales five years ago and went on to appear on ITV's This Morning and the Paul O'Grady Show, according to The Guardian.

Fresh from her Spanish talent show win, Jones went on to gain a place in the Guinness World Records in 2010 as the world's "oldest acrobatic salsa dancer."

At first Cowell and the rest of the judges, including Alesa Dixon and David Walliams, seemed "unimpressed" by the ballroom dance couple who slow danced to the tango at first -- Cowell even had the nerve to yawn and roll his eyes! But then, the music changed and the couple took things up several notches, with amazing moves, flips, lifts, twists and turns, thus leading to screams, a standing ovation and an apology from the outspoken Cowell.

Judge Amanda Holden, who was also screaming and then had tears in her eyes, was so impressed with Jones' performance that she pressed the golden buzzer that automatically guarantees the dynamic duo a spot in the live semi-finals.

According to a spokesperson for Britain's Got Talent, anyone can audition for the show, regardless of their professional or amateur status, or past experience -- "all of the contestants are based on merit."

Jones's presence and talent was "complete surprise" to the judges' panel.

How did the energetic and incredibly limber Jones become a dancer?

When she got married and had children, Jones put her passion for dancing on the back burner. Later in life, the mother of four, grandmother of seven and great-grandmother of one, moved near Valencia, Spain with her husband. Sadly, 18 months later, he died of Leukemia.

At 69, instead of suffering from the heartache of losing her husband, she decided to fill the void and "lonely nights" with dancing. She re-connected to her childhood love of dancing when she walked into Epinosa's dance studio with the desire to learn Flamenco. The two hit it off and have been dancing across Spain, wowing audiences at dance competitions.

"I am flabbergasted to have got this far, I am not expecting the impossible. I am ploughing ahead with it and enjoying it as much as I can," Jones said, the Daily Mail reports.

"I would encourage older people to get up from watching TV all day to do something. It is a question of mind over matter."
