HOLLY Willoughby appeared to be hoisted high into the air during an energetic cheerleading routine as The Games got underway.
The This Morning star, 41, is co-hosting the new sporty reality series alongside cricket legend Andrew ‘Freddie’ Flintoff.
And to kick things off, Holly joined in a high-octane opening performance with a troupe of cheerleaders.
During the routine, the camera zoomed in on mum-of-three as she prepared to be launched into the sky.
A body double was then shown being hoisted into the air before Holly was seemingly put on the ground again.
Taking to Twitter, one viewer wrote: “Did Holly really just do that jump?!”

Also believing she had really performed the stunt, another said: “Bloody hell did you see what they done to Holly then on #TheGames their insurance must be astronomical!”
However, a third mused: “That fake Holly was soooo bad the wig was so obvious!”
The Games kicked off on ITV1 on Monday night and will air all this week at 9pm.
The show will see celebrities competing in a series of games with the hope of being crowned top of the medals table.
There are six male and six female competitors, testing their fitness in the athletics arena, the swimming pool, gymnasium and velodrome.
Coronation Street’s Colson Smith and Ryan Thomas, former Strictly star Kevin Clifton, Max George, Love Island’s Wes Nelson and Harry Potter actor Josh Herdman will all compete in the ITV competition.
The female stars include Emmerdale’s Rebecca Sarker, newsreader Lucrezia Millarini, songwriter and footballer Chelcee Grimes, Love Island’s Olivia Attwood, model Phoenix Brown, and model Christine McGuinness.
