Wolfgang Bartschelly: German Plate Spinner plus Glasses and Trays Balancing Act 1980s

Here's a video of the fabulous, German plate spinner, Wolfgang Bartschelly performing on a TV show in 1982. There's so much to enjoy watching here – from his actual spinning of the plates to his comedic movements around the stage plus the introduction of a really small plate. I love how he actually turns his back to the plates while he plays the piano. It's such a great act and he's a wonderful performer. Enjoy! 👏👏🤣
