Wilson Keppel and Betty - Yet Another Sand Dance

The version with the good music. If you enjoy this, check out my clip of the "Hallam Hawaiian Players".

Does anyone know if they actually did make the "sand" noise with their feet, or was this replicated by someone in the orchestra pit..? - I'd love to know.

I have watched this clip huindreds of time and I still find "Betty's" legs amazing. She was a fine filly!!.

They did indeed make the sand noise themselves, and in fact were such pro's that when they performed in Vegas, they took their own sand with them.

Some buskers used to do this in Leicester Square, I saw 'em once while queueing to see The Graduate in about 1968!

@TheBarryM8 You shouldn't worry about the occasional politically "correct' nag.

Haha, my grandma used to do her version of this all the time at home, unfortunately now she can't walk but she still reminds us she did a mean sand dance :P

@incongra

Yes, Wilson and Keppel on the other hand look like pipe cleaners with a moustache on top.

Am researching the timelessness of these kinds of acts for a school project which i picked the subject for. I'd heard of Wilson Keppel and Betty, naturally, and i'm ashamed to say that until now i've never actually seen what they did. But now i do! And its brilliant! I've watched it several times, first few times i laughed and now i smile at its pure hypnotic powers! This is entertainment! x

[mujawooja]

will always be brilliant every time you watch this
