Three top Tuggers on youtube!
(as defined by: high in youtube search results, easily accessible to people who don't know the musical, and strong charismatic performances that introduce you to the concept of TUGGER)
... John Partridge in 1998. Enough said. Generally considered THE tugger, to the extent that pretty much any comment section in a tugger video on youtube will contain people saying 'okay but john partridge is better'.
Stanley Allyn Owen, Oasis cast 5. Gorgeous voice and knows it. Pieced together from a few different nights so it's multi-angle, which is great, but a bit too enthusiastic in the editing so it switches angles far too often.
And Tyler Hanes, in the Broadway revival revised choreo of 2016:

James-Royden Liley doing a quick change mid show from Mungojerrie to Skimbleshanks - Oasis/RCCL cast 5, January 2017.
Judging by the fact that he starts out still in his solo outfit and the other cats don’t start to appear until a third of the way through, this isn’t during the interval: he must have left after ‘Pekes and Pollicles’ and be missing out on the ball in order to change.
The Oasis production has no swings, so cast members have to shuffle (presumably in some creative permutations) to cover for each other when necessary - including complicated split tracks!
I don’t know if, in this case, Patrick George (Skimbleshanks) injured himself during Act I, or if it was planned that James was doing the whole show as a split track from the start - Act I as Mungojerrie with no Skimbleshanks onstage, and Act II as Skimbleshanks with no Mungojerrie onstage. Either way, they clearly had enough notice for him to leave the stage before the ball, and for somebody else to be deputed to be The Table.
You can spot Matt Landel’s Mistoffelees and Stanley Allyn Owen’s Tugger behind him!
Moments of Happiness: Oasis cast 5 (2016–17).
Jelly and Jenny are... well, letting their hair down.
Jackey Good (Oasis cast 8) and Erica Leigh Hansen (Oasis cast 5).
Bonus: Erica's habit of making herself up as Jenny in her daily life! (Though sadly without the little swirls.)
What a fabulous lady.
