Dancing like a Peanuts character at the Olympics has got to be the peak of the human experience
e
I guess it’s a hot take but I think her dancing looks goofy
😂😂😂
@@Laevatheinnplease learn from this, and represent yourself
This is a disgrace
it would be at least 50% less ridiculous if she didn't look like a Subway Sandwich Artist while dancing.
kek can't unsee it
Perfect! 😅
I thought she was a random cricket player on E 😂
Bro those are just our national colours - green and gold.
Lookin like a subway surfer 💀
So that people truly appreciate how much of a trainwreck Raygun was, she not only didn't win a round, she didn't win a single vote. She was 0 for 54. What a legend.
Incredible
Bro; she's the best breaker in her suburb. She even best slinky Pete from the milk bar.
@@Azmania3000that's only because Dazza wasn't there coz he had too many vomit bombs and blacked out again
It's so bad, that it's impressive
Fck me, that was really bad
Question is. Does she spin the opposite way when in Australia
Haha
got on the stage , busted a "squirrels in my pants" dance and left , the aura levels are off the charts
Truly outstanding.
😂😂😂😂
Dont ever disrespect candice like this again s.i.m.p is a fire dance and this aint that😂😂😂😂😂
Ok I giggled at this
Best comment I've seen today
She may have not Olympic Gold, but she won Comedy Gold
This is an elaborate Australian plot to send a competitor so ridiculous, the event never gets repeated
Can't risk having something we aren't very good at as a permanent feature. Good plan.
I fucking wish it was lol
nice stolen comment from The Project's video lmao
Thank you Australia!
This is definitely not a sport. But a joke
‘The IOC have added breaking to the olympics in an effort to attract younger viewers’
About 30 years late but I appreciate the idea
Steve Buscemi wearing backwards hat has entered the chat.
Can’t wait for bottle flipping to make it’s debut in 2048
Should've added rizzoffs and toilet throwing for the skibidi kids.
I swear. It's like the easiest task ever. Just add eSports
Fortnite olympic event
She can hypnotise zombies with those moves.
what
It's her evil alignment turn undead.
It's supposed to reference cod zombies franchise man.
@@大 search "cod raygun"
@@nomdusIt's a reference to the music video for Thriller.
Imagine doing it so bad at a particular event that they cancel it from the Olympics, lol.
Crazy how this became the narrative. LA decided in October 2023 NOT to include breaking in 2028, nearly a year before we saw how it was received in Paris.
i still can't believe breakdancing is an official olympics competition
I would win
I've started to breakdancing and it's cool that it's on the Olympics
bruh even beyblades are rumoured to be an olympic sport😂
It's only for this Olympics, it won't be in LA.
If I remember correctly, esports are supposed to make an Olympic debut in LA in 2028. Take that as you will whether it's a good thing or not.
Don't sugercoat it, her performance was abominable
tru
Disable people can dance far better than her.
Have some fun will ya?
@@UniversusVasator I did, I watched her competitors in the Womens' qualifier. They had clear funk and style even when straying from popular expectations of what breaking is and in to freestyle competiton.
I mean I’ll probably end up in hospital if I attempted what she did, but compared to the others she was completely outclassed.
She managed to get breakdancing removed from the Olympics solely on her performance 💀
Breaking is only an exhibition sport. It will not be competed in LA where it will be replaced by other exhibition sports
ye
😂😂😂 What a "Sport"
@WruGapps Hobo Dodging and Repeater Offender Relay and Sovereign Righters Boxing. 😂😂😂
Hopefully they remove it indeed, it's a fuckin tragedy that things like this are mixed with real sports
Australia shouldve sent The Wiggles instead.
She has outstanding wiggle power moves
She got the Australian government to pay for her French holiday
LMAO
You mean the Australian tax payers, to pay for her holiday.
😂😂😂
Getting a free holiday for doing a bizarre maybe-a-sport is what the Olympics spirit is all about. Doing it comically badly is even more so.
@@Dere2727 break dance is a highly demanding and skilled activity, she just suck at it
Considering how the whole Olympics went, I found this performance particularly fitting.
"Dr. Rachel Gunn aka Dr. Raygun" is too perfect, feels like some campy old supervillain name
B-level Superman nemesis who shoots kryptonite at him with a raygun
COD Zombies got a new villainess
Narcissist ✅
Zero self awareness ✅
Friends in high places ✅
That's most of Australians in our media tbh
Lol what a stupid take. She's literally trolling. Take your second point.
@@_asantesana_squashbanana_ surely takes a narcissist with zero self awareness to “troll” the Olympics, no? Try again lil bro
No breakdancing in 2028? My world is shattered.
especially since LA would likely be one of the early epicenters of the sport. Australia has single handedly made them say "nope"
@@TJfromEarth NY started the culture, LA made it cool, AUS made it a meme
Fr
@@TJfromEarth that legit sucks. Damnit. So many good dancers from Cali too.
Yeah the japanise girl who won was soooo... fricking good 😮
That so called performance was a embarrassment to true breaking
🎉🎉🎉
First a Turkish hitman, now an Australian breakdancer, 2024 is truly insane 🙏
They also began the whole thing with pagan/satanic rituals and had people swim in sewage...
All before GTA 6
The best is yet to come
But the Turkish hitman was actually talented! 😂
😂
I'm so sad for Ami, the japanese girl that won Gold, that Raygun had to step in and ridicule the sport so much, that they dropped it for the next time
But here's the thing... her level doesn't merit her to be deservedly called a true Olympian. She just proved she could troll the system and qualify for Paris.
It's weird, even amateur breakdancers have more energy than she does.
exactly, breakdancing is actually hard. What she did wasn't breakdancing its ridicule
And that is, somehow, even more impressive
@@eliasgermer8762 True. That’s a skill for the corporate world or politics, but not for the athleticism (physical) that is celebrated in the Olympics. Her breaking was mostly just mental (pun intended).
1:16 those comments are brutal😭
For real she didn't deserve those comments T_T
Her break dancing was brutal😅
Instagram comments usually are very unfiltered
"Place de la Concorde" is something related to a French Concorde crash in the year 2000. I think he said he wants her on that flight. That is horrible.
@@LucasBoss6354No, it’s the Concorde square. Place = square.
i am most definitely anguished that THIS is what our country saw as the very best
what
yeah but just watched a 10sec round in Mens Breaking from Ukraine, and all he did was wiggle and got all the votes. The commentator said 'sometimes its Not about doing hard/ power moves, (Ukraine guy) incorporated his cultural uniqueness and flow into his story (dance set).' isnt that what Raygun did lol
Break dancing just isnt for Olympic competition thats all haha
BLM always had a reason
@@mnm8818 yeah Ukraine; like that wasn't a sympathy vote. Really, no serious breakers wanted to be in this hack show. They're keeping it real
She must be actually good but chose to mess with everyone lmao
I can't help but bring up that she is a university lecturer with a PhD in Cultural Studies and a bachelor's in Contemporary Music. According to her school, "Her work draws on cultural theory, dance studies, popular music studies, media, and ethnography."
I'm at a loss for words...can talk the talk but can't walk the walk.
This years Olympics went from sports competition to an epic dance battle that came straight out of the scene in _Step Up_ movies is such a history in the making.
Friendship man
Haha. I’ve seen better dancing from those movies and Red Bull dance battles though.
@@_davidboxingoh yeah? So we gonna see you next time breakin's in the Olympics, right? You're gonna show us how it's done?
@@iponce2bruhhh. There's RUclips's of 6yo kids that can lay down better than this.
@@_davidboxingred bull dance battles are freestyle. She had music for her performance and still trashed it after going through training sessions and at least 1 or 2 trainer's
At least tell me she was paid to throw it because ain't no way in hell she went out there mimicking ostriches, and monsters, and toddler tantrums but was serious about competing.
As an Australian, I can confirm this is an Australian ritual dance we use to entrance kangaroos
Entice kangaroos you say?
I probably would have gone the 'enchant' rather than 'entrance'. It's not like we are New Zealanders with their sheep.
Crocodile DunRaygun
Yeah, you're a true Australian 'Ahmed'.
@@lellamas2778the legend
It’s already started, at a high school basketball game the coach subbed in a kid that sucked. The other side chanted “Ray Gun” when ever he got the ball.
0:01 Looks like that one zombie dance
Thriller?
Lol pvz
Squirrels in my pants
@@khenjyjohnelson18and COD
Thriller, baby
You are trying to be too positive for the most embarrassing performance that I ever seen.
Olympics aren't about representing yourself, it's about representing your country.
She hit the kangaroo dance tho
yeah, this is about what I’d expect from australia. raygun is peak.
she represented Australia perfectly then, we are undisputed champions at rewarding mediocrity
yeah and she did it this is the best that ausies can do just imagine
@@justheretocommentokdontwan685absolutely agree.
She wasn’t just different she was horrible . It’s actually disrespectful to real breakdancers
I was watching it thinking, “she sure is different from everyone else. Surely this will become a meme.” Glad it did.
I mean this current Olympic is a joke anyway why not just have fun 😂
Why are people lying acting like this is redeemable
because its absolutely hilarious lmao
@@featherweighthate nah, I mean like the people that are calling us trolls acting like this was just her unique, and incredible style
@@edwardofhydeiii666 that, i can not explain
Why are people acting like she shot a dog? Being cringe is not a crime.
The Ray Gun is available in all Zombies maps in Call of Duty: World at War available only in the Mystery Box. The Ray Gun is often the most favored weapon in Zombies due to its ability to kill in one shot until rounds 18 to 22, or 22 to 25 when Pack-a-Punched, and its large ammo capacity for such a high-damage weapon. As well, the Ray Gun can hit multiple zombies at once, courtesy of its splash damage. However, the same splash damage can be dealt to the user themselves, and can potentially down them in unfavorable locations. It is pinpoint accurate, and the bullets have a travel time, meaning that the player should aim their shots very carefully, especially since it takes a small, but noticeable amount of time for the shot to reach its target. The Ray Gun can kill zombies in one hit approximately until round 22. However, after said rounds, the Ray Gun will steep off immensely in terms of usefulness, commonly turning zombies into crawlers. The Ray Gun shoots slowly, and as such, can benefit from using Double Tap Root Beer in order to increase its effectiveness; however, it can cause inaccurate players to burn through ammunition supplies at alarming rates. The reload animation for the Ray Gun ends when a distinct, distorted sound is heard, after the barrel of the Ray Gun is closed. As such, players should be aware of its Reload Cancel time, as attempting to reload cancel as soon as the battery enters the barrel will yield danger to the user. To alleviate this, Speed Cola can be useful in order to perform its 3 second reload faster.
Bruh
No one wants a copy and paste about zombies. Nurse nurse

Thank you for this ray gun info
Everyone wants a copy and paste about zombies. Thank you
Her performance was so bad they wont even show it
To summarize the Paris Olympics 2024:
-anti-sex beds for athletes
-bizzare opening ceremony
-metal band, Gojira, in the ceremony
-Seine river issue/scandal/controversy
-Olympic village not in good condition
-vegan food out of stock
-handsome Turkish olympic shooter
-Filipino athlete winning 2 gold medals (he's going home)
-French pole vaulter eliminated
-midair olympic surfer
-some other nations including Pakistan and Uzbekistan also getting gold medals
-South Korean athletes miscalled as "North Korean"
-Jamaican athletes "no-showing" on track game
-US Men's 4x100m team not winning medals
-Australian breakdancer
-Paris Olympics closing ceremony
I think that's enough on the list
pommel horse guy
vegan food that ran out
india having 1 silver and 5 bronze while north korea performed better
an athlete proposed to another athlete after getting gold
Pakistan managing a gold
I'm not gonna sugarcoat it, she did awful. Plain and simple
Looks like she showed up for a cricket match, found out she was dancing and went fuck it am up for that 😂😂
Hahaha that's what I though. When you've had a few beers at the cricket and decide to show your mates a dance.
😂😂. Bloddy Brilliant.
I’m still lovin’ those kangaroo hops she does. Totally Aussie. I’d give her a 10 for creativity.
You must be easily pleased
@@johnm7267Your the type of person who gets unreasonably mad in monopoly.
It's a game.
1:08 OVERCONFIDENT 💯
Hardly anyone would even know they happened at all if not for the memes, kind of like the 2022 Oscar’s
0:26 that clip alone shows she has skill.. did she drink the rivers water that day?
No. She actually lost that competition. The other girl was so much better.
What are you talking about? That clip does not show shit. If you think that show's skill, you have no clue what you're looking at
no??
Nah she actually looks like she got drugged or sum imo
Raygun was just leveling up with her Magikarp dance to evolve into GyRaydos
You know what?? Its actually not Ray guns fault...the Australian Olympic selection hierarchy let her onto the team, theyre are the embarrassment. I know for a fact we have some of the most athletic and dynamic dancers in the world and yet this woman represents? Heads gotta roll
Didn't expect so many memes to come out from the Olympics. This must be a memes renaissance of some sort.
lol. I agree with you. we need those memes from the Olympic be published as a comic book
She's definitely the most hated break dancer in the history of the sport. She turned it's big moment into a joke.
I loves rayguns, they shoot lasers and stuff
On the microphone, he came to daze and amaze ya
What a guy, practices bangin' flies with razors
And watch out for the robot, he got eyes with lasers
Tell 'em when they come with more topics besides blazers
Enough with the guns already, they all toys and lames
The joy's in the aim, he asked him, "How's ya' poison game?
Do you bust your crossbow?"
Also, more so, accurate body blows to torso, thought so
I thought Turkish shooter won but Raygun came in in gold for the Meme Olympics.
Im a retired B-Boy "break-boy." She's considering the battle and originality criteria. I believe this hits a bit of the dynamics criteria to and if its on beat its gonna hit the fundamentals criteria. Learn the scoring first. Breaking is not your movie style "breakdancing." Breaking is the real deal, and its a sport. Its not the one for fancy TV only.
I'm a bboy and this was garbage there is no originality in her set
Man, breaking was an expression of the soul in the bleak NY lanscape in the 70s & 80s. There was no training; we had some cardboard and a boombox. Get a hold of yourself.
This was friggin trash. Really I'm a retired shuffler and met some of the wicked force breakers. You're calling that top rocking? Absolute ass. She's literally a soccer mum that had too much goon at her kids scout hall party.
@@sicksmoker253i gotta agree with this. She looked like she only practiced for 2 months tops and decided to send it on stage. Her musicality wasn’t ideal, her footwork was mediocre, her style in general was inconsistent and her power move structures and transitions were non-existent
She literally got a zero from the judges
You’re coping hard bro. 😂
Australians have been seeing a resurgence of meme notoriety as of late. Almost makes you forget that they don't exist.
You are literally watching an Australian channel.
@@user-hg4up9qq9u Dude, it's a joke, lol.
We exist only in the minds of the British government that created the myth that is “australia”
@@user-hg4up9qq9u Missed the meme. About 5 years ago a loony Scottish or Irish (I forget) claimed Australia doesn't exist.
Went to Slovakia ... 🇸🇰 ... border guard lady said my Australian passport was fake ... place didn't exist as far as she was concerned ... luckily they had an Atlas handy ... I soon educated her as to the difference between Austria 🇦🇹 and Australia 🇦🇺
This such a bad take mate 😂. New information came out that her qualifying for Olympics was basically rigged lol.
Just like Eddie the Eagle who did the ski jump for the U.K. at the Winter Olympics. When your the only one who sign up and put your name down on the list and no one else did. Looks like you’re going to the Olympics no matter how bad you are. Poor Ray_Gun she looked like a drunk bridesmaid trying to make movies on the dance floor at the weddings reception party
I take urban dance seriously, so it's kind of sad for me to see people applauding a mediocre at her best breaker doing a worse than her usual freestyle to represent her nation. I've never been to Australia, but I've seen videos on youtube of buskers and street dancers and even one of an Aboriginal kid out in the middle of nowhere who'd better represent the art of break dancing than this credentialed "national champion".
Break dancing in it's origin was an art form of impoverished urban minorities just dancing as a form of entertainment and competition on the street, and to see this privileged white college professor pretending to be an authority on it flailing about on camera while there's skilled dancers who are both more true to the origin of the dance on the streets of Melbourne, Sydney and even in the Outback and more deserving to represent breaking for their nation
Completely agreed. If you look at many universities, often times their "hip-hop professors" are often millennial white hipsters from the suburbs. I went to an academic conference once and there was a panel of a Tupac discussion, and it was all yt hipsters, so I left.
Yes she took the place of someone who may have won a gold medal and that is the real tragedy. A privileged mediocre performer given the place belonging to someone else I hear her husband was on the selection committee.
0 momentum, has to kick the ground instead of actually using core strength to flip. Mom moves on point.
A Turkish FBI agent, Light yagami and now we have Goofy
Me and my mom watched breakdancing olympics and couldn’t stop laughing at her 😂
I don't get it why everybody's so upset that she gets criticized for her dance. It's literally olympics, a place where you're judged for your performance lmao
Lessons in Olympic Culture
So Australia admits to knowing not a single dam thing about breakdancing.
Rare time of LIMC giving his anecdote in the title
I've seen such skill before, when my mother sprayed roaches with the insect spray. 😂
Watching olympic breakdancing with old people who don't like hip hop is hilarious. Was watching it with my dad and he was trashing it the whole time, lol. I'm glad it's here and bringing more attention to an art many people might not have known about.
To be fair any olympic sport that requires a committee to gives points by arbitrary judgment is pretty stupid.
and now its gone from 2028 olympics already
It is canceled at the next Olympics and no wonder after that performance
Hip hop at its best is cRap
At its worst it’s cRap
i highly recommend people go watch the winning performances. it'll make you realize how ridiculous it is that Australia sent Rachael Gunn to compete lol. no hate on her personally, but it's a shame that people are only talking about her when the athleticism of the top competitors is genuinely super impressive, and it's just a super fun sport overall.
Yeah, the girl who came in second place and the Canadian boy were very good dancers and you can see that they put a lot of physical effort into it, it makes me bad to see how people are talking negatively about breaking just because of this girl, especially about female breaking, when in the majority of participants there was a lot of effort and professionalism, people find it difficult to accept new things
The least normal Australian citizen of all time.
Love from Australia.
this has been one of the most memorable Olympics I remember. I living for it all tbh
in a world falling apart....we needed Raygun
What she did was the worst thing that ever happened at the Olympics.
Literally not true. Look up the 1904 Olympics in St. Louis, Missouri.
Or 1994 Winter Olympics were one of the athletes was physically attacked.
Actually, look up the 1972 Summer Olympics. That one had a actual body count by a terrorist group that kidnapped a team.
She won gold in the hearts of us Australian's
Get rekt you gronk
@@Azmania3000 🏊♀️🥇🥇🥇

Not according to to all the comments and the reflection on Australians is not very good if they think that performance has any merit
@@johnm7267 nah but all the aussies who don’t take themselves to seriously think it’s hilarious and still shows a side of our country’s personality
What went through her head: "Screw-it, I'm doing the kangaroo! GOD SAVE THE KING!"
"Oi dance off mate, yer an' me"
I think the Olympics has just found the cure for depression and anxiety.
0:10 - Glad she specified she/her - it's not always guaranteed for an athlete competing in the women's events.
Love the bait
Hello user it seems you must be a fish! Cause you have a pretty big hook in your mouth right now
@@elbottioi wanna say smt abt it but don't want to engage
Was like watching a demented drunk kangaroo having a Epileptic fit
What's up with ALL footages from these Olympics being either unavailable, removed or a threat due to copyright law? Weren't Olympics before fair use at least to some degree?
Nah, they've always been hardasses about copyright, unfortunately.
@@Nuts-01 but I've seen clips from other Olympics on YT even when they were new. Have they just failed to enforce it before then?
@@TheArklyte I'm sure quite a bit slips through the cracks, but just about everything I can find is official NBC or Olympics channels. It's maddening to find full replays of events until years later.
i like that you draw attention to her performance without completely eviscerating her.
She's had enough of that, so lets see it for what it was: an Olympic performance that brought many people joy.
Who would have thought an Aussie P.E. teacher could join Olympic Breakdancing.
P.e? She’s a lecturer in media and creative studies
@@elbottio looks like a PE teacher for me
@@yehudamanus2180 the information is literally in the video
@@elbottio dude it's just a joke
She will go down in Australian history as the first person to represent to represent them at the first Breakdancing event of the olympics
Such an insult to the actually talented breakdancers that she was the one chosen to compete in the olympics
You forget to mention the part where she took advantage of the Olympics ignorance on the subject of breakdancing and her husbands nepotism to basically cheat her way in.
she was a national embarrassment and set break dancing back 20 years
That is what Greeks thought of olypics when they made them !
Unfortunately for those supporting RAYGUN are humiliated. Different?! she received Zero points! Did she not know the scoring process? Everyone praising her is disingenuous or a complete idiot!
Some glazing from LIMC here. She embarrassed herself and her country with this performance.
based? pretty sure you meant cringe😂
yeah worst take ive seen this channel make
She really thinks she's Michael Jackson in Thriller
It's not just bad style, she hesitates before her moves, checking her balance or whatever like an incompetent learner! Is it just the judges and me that can see this?
The Paris Olympics only added Breakdancing (I'm already cringing) in a desperate and comedically out-of-touch bid to garner more views, after people are tuning out.
Everyone is being way too nice to this lady. People are saying, "Don't troll her! She gave it her best shot. She was just happy to be there!"
Like, no shit. I would be happy to go the olympics too but I'm not a talented athlete, so I can't. We aren't trolling this girl, she is the one trolling everyone else. She literally has a PhD in knowing how badly she sucks. She trolled the Olympics 100%, she's pulling a fast one on everyone who defends her. She knows she's terrible I don't know why it's acceptable for her to decide to go compete anyways.
Nah everyone hates her. They even sent her d**th threats
I have never gone from "idk who this is" to "i absolutely love her" as fast as I have been with Raygun. She is amazing
Singlehandedly removes breakdancing from olympics for all eternity
The still image of her doing the Roo feels like someone could photoshop her into the “Thriller” music video
I’ve never seen the Internet work so hard at protecting the lie of some nobody fool who came to the Olympics unprepared, unprofessional and unrealistic!
I never laughed so hard watching a olympic preformance…
I was cringing so hard I had to stop watching.
I wached this live and her moves were to clunky compared the rest of them
Wow this is truly a proud Australian moment
Bro, she is really bad
And that is beautiful.
