description: Short clip of plate spinning on table from 4th Cirque de Demain 1980. The spinner is from the Cairo Circus School. It's only a short clip, but has some nice close-ups of the spinning technique. This type of plate spinning used to be called "waltzing plates".

description: (Re-upload: a clearer version of JTV #148) Victor Ponce is an Argentinian circus juggler, known for boomerang hats and very fast club juggling. I like this clip because it starts with the rarely seen ball & sticks (Japanese origin). ball & sticks, head bounce with skipping, 3 tambourines, 3 & 5 clubs, 3 & 4 boomerang hats

description: Manuel Alvarez. Spanish circus juggler. The king of kickups! 5 & 7 rings, 3 & 4 clubs (lots of kickups), 2-4 boomerangs, 3-7 boomerang plates ... and one very vocal ringmaster! I believe this is from Spanish TV series Pista de Estrellas, which makes it around 1990.

description: Manuel Alvarez, circus juggler of Spanish origin. Featured lots of club kickups. This performance at the 13th Monte Carlo Circus Festival in 1988. 2-4 boomerangs, 3 clubs featuring kickups, 4-7 boomerang plates This is a good video for anyone working on kickups, as the director seems to like closeups of his feet!

description: Senor Wences was a brilliant ventriloquist. This is one of his many appearances on the Ed Sullivan Show - he appeared on the show 23 times over its long life. Juggling was part of his act, and there are lots of clips online showing him doing the tray spinning, but this one contains more juggling than I've seen in any other clip. He lived to age 103, and was still performing (in Sugar Babies) at the age of 90!
