Berlin Dance Crew Celebrates Despite Loss at US Talent Show - Berlin's 'Team Recycled' Makes History on 'AGT'

Berlin's dance ensemble 'Team Recycled' made history this year, becoming the first German dance group to reach the finale of 'America's Got Talent' (AGT). Their surreal journey culminated in a stunning hip-hop dance acrobatics performance that left judge Howie Mandel so impressed, he sent them straight to the finale with a 'Golden Buzzer'.

The team's quarterfinal performance was a turning point. After months of gruelling training, they took to the stage, nerves aflutter. Their routine was a spectacle of precision and athleticism, leaving the audience and judges spellbound. Howie Mandel, moved by their skill and energy, pressed the 'Golden Buzzer', a rare honour that catapulted them into the finale. This direct entry gave the ensemble a strategic advantage - two weeks to refine their final performance.

Team Recycled's journey on 'America's Got Talent' is a testament to the power of perseverance and unity. Their Golden Buzzer moment and subsequent finale appearance have not only brought them international recognition but also paved the way for future German dance groups aspiring to shine on the global stage.
