This is what happens when people are too polite to be honest. If it was me I would rather someone was "cruel to be kind" before I ever entered a national let alone world stage.

You see similar with awful singers on talent shows etc... Friends and family did her no favours.

Alternate take she's delusional and in her insular academic circle no one knew or cared about how horrible she was.

me thinking about this

This could be the new thinking emoji. Come on, it's amazing. Crop it a bit and you are golden.

Breaking dancing, now breaking hearts.

Those Australian women ...

Her performance for some reason reminded me of Apex Twins video Windowlicker, his dancing part but hers was sub par.

Also for anyone that has never watched this video, best intro to any music video ever,

Her being delusional is a prerequisit.

Chris Raygun regains the crown for most known Raygun on the internet.

 

[IntentionalPun]

Shes the number one female break dancer in the world, or was.

Rachael ‘Raygun’ Gunn tops latest world breaking rankings despite Olympic flop

Australian breaker Rachael ‘Raygun’ Gunn holds the top spot in her sport’s latest world rankings despite Olympic performances that led to online ridicule and abuse

www.theguardian.com

Ranked by an organization most breakers don’t take seriously, based on a single event held in Fiji.

 

[Rival]

In a cruel twist of fate it was the dance that ended up breaking her.

Ill tale that as a yes, shes numereo ouno.

 

[Pejo]

really weird how this nonsense became the image of the olympics for a lot of people

She really ruined the public perception of breakdancing for a LOT of people. Imagine trying to be taken seriously and then having her at the fucking Olympics so that the average viewer would be like "this is Olympic level breakdancing? What a shitty pasttime!"

There were other actual pros there, but at that point her memes were blowing up so big that it drowned out any of the talented people that came after her. It's a real shame because I think breaking is a lot of fun to watch when done at a high level.

 

[freefornow]

Australia had not seen such public humiliation, since they lost the great emu war.

It was a hell of a war though! Dont mess with Emu's.
Major Gwynydd Purves Wynne-Aubrey Meredith (yes, thats real) who led the first campaign and pnly managed to eliminate 986 and wound 2500 over a 6 week period. 9860 rounds of ammunition to achieve that.

"If we had a military division with the bullet-carrying capacity of these birds it would face any army in the world ... They can face machine guns with the invulnerability of tanks. They are like Zulus whom even dum dum bullets could not stop." (Major Gwynydd Purves Wynne-Aubrey Meredith)

Yea I’m not sure I can look at breakdancing the same way ever again. I’m not sure I’ll ever be able to hear the word again without thinking of this. IIRC they’re not doing it in the next Olympics either.

 

[Halo is Back]

Now she can start her OF career

 

[IntentionalPun]

Sure just pointing out the gigantic asterisk.

Some organization basically declared itself the official ranking body and clearly isn’t doing a good job lol

I know, I'm just fucking around. I find the whole thing highly humorous, especially the world rankings.

Apart from the cannoe racing and the gay/trans last supper, she was the best thing at the olympics for me. Made it all worth it.

It's the only thing I watched; by "watched" I mean the endless TikTok videos and memes I saw posted lol

But I do have some good friends into breakdancing (highly competitive) and the whole thing was a bummer for them. But TBH it's not that serious lol

 

[TheInfamousKira]

I could(n't) fix her

[HoodWinked]

Bit of a weird one cause she set out to do the thing and she did it, and became the most famous Olympian this year and the most famous breakdancer of all time.

 

[Jeff Spicoli]

Oh no....

anyway

Famous and infamous are not the same thing.

 

[Lord Panda]

She definitely left an impression.

Every Olympics they have a few spots for stupid ass fringe sports that the organiser can try if they want, I think the US got like American Football, and Lacrosse, and something else on the field, which you can be sure will never make it in 2032.
Breakdancing is kinda big in France, same with French rap, so it probably went well with elitist Paris 2024 committee members (the main guy finished the same school I did, super elitist) thinking they are doing a “gesture” to poor suburbs. It’s like the equivalent of rich kids going to build wells in poor countries during their gap year.

It's so weird that break dancing is an Olympic sport. Will bowling be next? Anyway, good luck Raygun.

They cancelled it as an Olympic sport after the recent Olympics. Basically everyone shares that sentiment.

 

[Paasei]

To be fair the whole sport didn’t fit in the Olympics.

Even beyblade battles would do better with them yelling: Let it rip!

Good luck for what exactly? Making a mockery of breakdancing?

It was an exhibition sport. It wasn't cancelled.

I think the only exhibition sport that became a regular part of the Olympics was TKD back in the 90s.

 

[Mobilemofo]

"Competing". Fuck off. That was nothing like breakdancing and she knows it. Having a trip via euro mushrooms doesn't produce "breakdancing".

 

[DeafTourette]

We need a pallette cleanser... REAL breakdancing... The athleticism is MIND blowing... Raygun could never!

I don't even care about breakdancing I just have empathy for people that do. This privileged insular Australian Acadamic made a mockery of breakdancing and you feel "bad" for her. I know you're trolling the shtick got old a long time ago.

Keep checking this thread for more pictures of her not doing the stupid dance. I am disappointed. She is somewhat hot.

I read Blowing instead of Bowling, now THAT would be an interesting sport to watch, if you catch my drift.

Bowling is in Pan American Games.
