Two Tanzanian are set to feature in the finals of the America's Got Talent (AGT) show in Las Vegas on Tuesday night.

The Ramadhani Brothers duo - Fadhili, 26, and Ibrahim, 36, are performing artists who do acrobatic performances.

They specialise in head balancing with Fadhili using only his head to balance on top of Ibrahim's head.

They will be challenged by 10 other finalists for the top prize in the Las Vegas show. The winner takes home a $1m (£821,000) prize.

Earlier on Tuesday, Fadhili told BBC that they had trained and rested well.

"We did our last training, we are now having rest as we await evening (18:00 Vegas time) to do our performance," he said.

"According to the list of performers, we will be the first to showcase to the world what we came with from Tanzania."

The Ramadhani Brothers posted on their Instagram page on Monday calling for supporters to vote for them.

The Tanzania’s culture and arts ministry congratulated the duo in a social media post and wished them luck in their performance.
