- 호주 올림픽 브레이크 댄서 레이첼 건 준비 안된 춤으로 관심 집중
Australian Olympic Breaking athlete Rachael Gunn, known as B-Girl Raygun, broke social media with her performance at the Olympic event on Friday.
36-year-old Gunn, a lecturer at Macquarie University in Sydney researching "cultural politics of breaking", left fans puzzled by her dancing, which included laying on the stage with incomplete moves, and flailing around with her hand on her chin and jumping around, appearing to mimic a kangaroo.
Gunn lost all three of her round-robin battles without scoring a single point at the Games.
While Gunn received ridicule on social media, Olympic breaking chief judge, Martin 'MGbility' Gilian, said B-Girl Raygun had done nothing wrong even though she failed to score a point, adding that she was trying to be "original and bring something new to the table."

Apologize for my Aunt, she was drunk and somehow end up in Paris
Good one😂😂😂
What I want to know is who saw her audition and said yes she is the one to represent my country 😅
Exactly.
Or if the other candidates were even worse than her, she would be the only candidate they could pick 😂😂😂
@@DDSizeBraI don't think it works that way. You still need to qualify at an olympic level otherwise anyone from any country could just enter.
I heard her husband was on the selection committee
Her husband obviously. Heard he was in the judging committee
The lady who said she is the best breaker in Australia obviously doesn’t know anything about ‘breaking’.
Shes obviously a delusional narcissist
So true!
This is a Disrespect to Our culture!! How can you have our cultural Dance & Not have 1 Foundational Black American Creator as the Judge of this Competition!! Break dancing is a dance of soul in our culture and she made a mockery of our culture like France made a mockery of Christ! This Olympics is taking Mad " L's "
Maybe that "breaking" is literally "break" something 😅
Can you imagine how the people who REALLY do breakdance that love in Australia and love the art form and are really talented feel?? How upset and embarrassed they probably feel for the poor representation of both thier country and the art form.
"A kangaroo had just been shot. and slowly dying"
Wow, what a great description of her dancing.
Finding a video of the actual performance that isn't just a news clip or AI clickbait is like looking for Bigfoot. The modern internet sucks ass.
Forreal -_- can't find it ANYWHERE...
It's the IOC. No video sharing. They fight to protect their videos and sexual predators
I'm thinking NBC has it copyrighted and is not allowing free use. Thinking they can make money off it or is it that embarrassing?
Twitter
That’s why I call it liberal RUclips.
Imagine embarrassing your nation on INTERNATIONAL television 😭
Australia is perfectly capable of embarrassing itself, it doesn't need it's citizens for that
If it was the Special Olympics, she would have won the
Participation medal easily.
There’s so much to say about this ‘performance’ without making a disableist comment.
@@clarewillison9379 Who cares, welcome to the internet.
She brought something new indeed……she did a Special Olympics’ performance at the actual Olympics
She got paid 110k per year for the breaking dance research, what a joke
Source?
@ALBINO1D the source is always "trust me bro". But she does have a phd in dance which is still a fucking joke
@@ALBINO1D she is a proffesor at a university. Even her instagram says break dancing research lol
@@Tomberculosis-q1i actually he is a proffesor at a university. Even her instagram says break dancing research lol
@@helenliu3500 There is a lot more to what she’s researching than just what you think it is. 😅
If you scored zero points, then you DID do something wrong. Bahahaha. People need to STOP telling this woman she can breakdance
I don't think anyone has been telling this woman she can break dance and nobody knows how she made it to the Olympics.......U know how you watch America's Go Talent and a person argues with the judges because they kick them off the stage immediately? Well, I think people told her and she might not have listened.
Those little kids in the 80's movie, "Breakin'" did it 1000% better. (Also, in "Breakin' 2: Electric Boogaloo", and "Beat Street").
😂😢😮😊😊 0:34
How did the selection process even take place? 😅
"Someone had just shot a kangaroo. and gradually passing away." Whoa, that description of her dancing is spot on.
Even her opponet felt way more embarrassed than her.
She brought breakdancing to world attention with failed performance
Yup, Publicly is publicity
National embarrassment, I can imagine.
🤡🤡🤡🤣🤣🤣
Internacional kkkk aqui no Brasil já é meme
@@rafaelestevesh 🤣🤣🤣
@@peterh.1521 🤯🤯🤯🤣🤣🤣
Australia came 4th in the medal tally, a great result for a little country…… then this happened. 😬
Criticism is not hate
The majority of her performance's social media videos have been removed in order to avoid TRAUMATIZING other users.
She's a comedian and trolled the Olympics. 😂
How she made it to the Olympics don't they need to go through competitions to qualify?🤷♂️🤷♂️🤷♂️🤣🤣🤣
@@Allen-k6n1oshe’s really good she was just raising a cause
@@Honeybee_Lipbalmwhat cause ?
Awareness of stroke ?
@@hamuktidiaz2564 lol she didn’t want break dancing to be in the olympics
@@Honeybee_Lipbalmwhy ?
Looks like a toddler when you try to put them down for a nap.
I thought she was having a seizure the poor woman. Only after the fact I heard it was breakdancing
Nearly every video of her actual dance has been scrubbed from the internet
Why can’t I just find the entire performance to watch instead of just news snippets of it?
How did she qualify.
Who the hell said she was Olympic material??? Fire that person.
It was horrible and should be ridiculed
The fact her coach attempted to stand up for her 😂🤣 and tried to blame everyone for basically being sexist pigs just makes it even better 🤣😂
The real question is: why is breakdancing in the Olympics?
Why not? Gymnastics is. Diving is. Synchronized swimming is. Should those be removed too?
Most videos of her performance have been deleted from social media as not to TRAUMTIZE any more viewers.
ruclips.net/video/JAISkdJlUIU/видео.htmlsi=BT6sUXPPbWX2RdyM. My country did a compilation
“Traumatize” 😂, you’re just a bit overly dramatic.
@@river8760 Well put it this way they were not removed due to her artistic talent !!
@@pastina000 Obviously, but no one was traumatized. There are many people experiencing genuine trauma who you are offended with your wording.
😂😂😂
I thought she had Tourettes or something but seriously the last time I saw anything comparable was a fish that was flapping around out of the water. Her performance was atrocious it wasn't her talent that earned her an entry so questions should be asked by those who were overlooked. She was breaking dance not breakdancing.
To prevent TRAUMATIZING other users, most of the social media recordings of her performance have been taken down.
I mean, she definitely made a memorable impression! It's kinda cool how she was just being herself, even if it wasn’t the Olympic gold standard. 🙈 Gotta love the fact that she was trying to mix it up a bit, even if folks didn’t get it. Can't wait to see what she comes up with next! 💃
When I first saw her performance, I thought it was a SNL skit. There was no way this is considered “break dancing.” I grew up in 80s and lived through real breakdancing. I don’t know what she was supposed to be doing
The judges were too gracious to award her a zero.
😂😂😂😂
I honestly thought she was just having a stroke
Aces lol good one
Well at least she had the courage to go out there and do what she did regardless of the outcome. Its admirable. There is no point in commenting negatively if your sitting at home twiddling your thumbs. I think its much better than fighting at the Olympics in my opinion.
Lol, who the hell was her coach? Someone should have been upfront with her before letting her make a fool of herself and in so doing bringing the arts into disrepute.
You did fine Rachael, don’t worry about what others think. It took courage and skill
to do what you did. Thank You
The judges too nice to give her 0 points
i didnt get to see breaking cause i thought it was stupid enough to be in the olympics! so why she broke the internet then?
LOL!
I joined a weight lifting competition. Instead of lifting the weights (that's what everyone was doing....sigh) I did something original. I whipped off my pants and took a poop on the stage. I'm original!!!
But what I want to know was what was your score form the judges?
@@karenmbbaxter0 is the answer
Good for you bringing something new to the sport
Shoulda busted out some curls, one turd in each hand. Unless it was too creamy, not good for poo curls.
Should've did a handstand and pooped vertically upwards. It would've displayed strength. I'm sure you could've made the Olympics.
Love you Racheal.Gunn, stay strong my beautiful girl. I'm an old Noongah woman. They haven't broken me and I'm 62... sending much love from Darwin
Her husband was in jury which decided who is going to Olympic...
What an utter embarrassment
Yea she def has connections to someone
It’s so bad they don’t even won’t to show more than a few frames
She proved why breaking dancing should have never been an Olympic sport lol
Real break dancers are actually good and impressive to watch. She is just an embarrassment
OMG they’ve taken out all of her videos of her performance! All I can find are just snapshots of her moves. For them to take down her performance videos off of all social media? They must be afraid that she’s going to be mental over her poor performance.what boggles me is that she has a degree and dance and never studied the art of breaking? She never got one point for anything she did.😢
No, any Olympics sports can get removed if it isn't shown by broadcast rights holders.
some people are doing her moves while her Olympic breakdance was on a T.V. behind them. U might be able to find this.
@@karenmbbaxterwhat moves? Pre heart attack?
Yeah, the IOC will fight tooth and nail to prevent anyone sharing this video. Almost as hard as they fight to protect a predator
Her degree was not in dance but in "cultural studies"
I won't be watching the Olympics from now on. I thought it's about watching the best compete, not watching people whom we want to feel better about themselves. I would rather watch RUclips shorts all day!
I second that statement of yours, Art_Van-Delay!
Just re watch Seinfeld then.
“Jumping around, appearing to mimic a kangaroo”
Geez, nobody wants to show her breaking?
I found Waldo before finding any original clip of her “dancing”
who's saying she did something wrong...?
if this isn't the representation australians wanted, this is the fault of whoever let her in there to represent Australia, not hers.
I've seen 10 videos of people badmouthing her performance yet none of them show her performance
Because they all got copyright strikes and had their videos taken down. The Olympic committee doesn’t want it seen
This is what happens when we have a society of "feelings" "Lie to me" "make me feel good" She has a right to "break dance" if it is her passion. But, let it stay a hobby! No one never told her that she really cannot break dance. Not on a professional level to the least. No one told this poor woman the truth...never ever ever! Her love ones, friends and Australia lied to her. Now you want us to "feel bad" for telling the truth! At least, now she knows.
For those looking for a full set of her dance, the reason you can't find it is because the Olympics are one of the most aggressively Litigious groups around, and have been since before the 1980s.
I live in the Pacific North West near the 'Olympic Mountains' or the 'Olympics'... Every-single-time there is an Olympic games in Canada or the USA they rain down cease and desist and lawsuits against all the various businesses in town with Olympic in the name because they think they're the ones who deserve to have it. There are businesses who are 'Olympic' since before 1900 here in town...
However, a Google search with her name and something about entire performance might show up something on the Video tab if you're patient. >.< I may have saved it, but the audio and video are separate... Reddit can be weird.
So, if this video we're commenting on still exists, does that mean RUclips is about to get sued?
@@wolflover968 THIS video? Above? It doesn't show the dance. ^^; It shows some stills that doesn't show how bad the performance is so bad.
The only places you'll find more of the performance in it... are commentary channels that use brief clips here and there that fall under fair-use... and even then the Olympics will go after them for it.
You'll need to look in 'slow to respond' locations... and it'll get re-posted here and there, until the Olympics move on to the next cycle, they'll keep hitting it... Then, probably in 6 months or so, you'll be clear to see it and post it
The fact they paid for her to fly there is crazzzyyy 🤣🤣😂😂
In the old days, this was called Payola. Barely enforced, and no one punished for doing it.
WOAH BREAKING BAD???
The Olympics isn't for participation trophy's. Worst score in Olympic history.
She pretty much sums up the entire country of Australia and how fucked it is.
It's all fun and games until somebody files a restraining order addressing that people should stay 100 feet away from her at all times.
an absolute waste of a human being.
Since I would so gain gold, I hope that twerking is added to the upcoming games.
Nothing against Rachel personally. I think the fault lies with the people who selected her. Obviously out of her depth in the break dancing field.
corrupt organization has sent her to the Olympics!😂
There are a few clips around the internet. They all need to be prefaced with a "Disturbing Images" warning.
And also subject to FACT CHECKERS
Dr Rachel Gunn earned her PhD in cultural studies in 2007 from Sydney's Macquarie University. With her focus of study being "the cultural politics of break dancing". And that is exactly why those can do and those who can't teach 😂 she should have stuck to academics.
It’s admirable what you did and it took
grit to. I admire you for your effort.😊
It was good enjoyable judges failed to notice some thing new. Thank you Ms gunn showing world your dance please do it again, love it ❤
LOL what a fraud. She is no break dancer. I thought it was a joke but then they squared off with an official breaker. Thats when the kid moves, she making were so funny. Good laugh though.
Australia you should be embarrassed for sending her to compete in the Olympics.
Question have you seen any real good break dancing in your lives....😂
The judges were too gracious to award her a zero.
They should charge her retroactively for the cost of sending her to Paris.
Best performance of the competition 🔥 Legend
😊
It wasn't a great performance tbh, but still, she needs respect, nobody can't be at his best everyday. She seems like an easy going and friendly lady from Australia. #respect Raygun. I can't believe people send her hate. These people were drinking beers in their fucking sofa. From Paris with love. Come back casually breaking without the haters. Je ne sais pas pq les gens sont si méchants, c'est clairement des gros crevards qui restent collés dans le canapé. Même pas sur que ces gens n'aient même jamais pris l'avion.
The William Hung of break dancing. She’s the reason they won’t have break dancing in la
Annnnd, cue the song: "She bang, she bang, she she she bang".
Not to mention the damage she has done to the arts community as a whole.
Thank you, because of you. You not only ruined bgirls, but the culture of breakdance. The foundation of break dance is power, and style. None of that was displayed except you trying to do the jojo siwa tiktok dances
I think people are mistaking is not courage to go to the Olympics and represent the whole country, it supposedly be the best athletes in the world her performance was not of an Olympian. However my question is who make her quality for the Olympics i'm certain she is NOT the best breakdancer in Australia. Australia should have call anyone for tryouts to pick someone to go to the Olympics to represent Australia.
I have done breakdance when i was younger and what i saw was not a breakdance was a kid tantrum.
My internet is broken..someone help.
she should have been in the special olympics
Nah she should've kept her ass home.
Nobody remember who's the winner but everyone know who's break the breakdance hahaha
One more question, how can I apply for Australia Olympics for 2028 breakdance?
So where is this actual video? 99% are just stills or shorts with people giving their useless comments or commentary. But just shows the Olympics is just a joke now and has been for decades.
Maybe she thought it was the Special Olympics.
COME ONE BRUH 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
She easily would have won the Participation medal if it had been the Special Olympics.
She easily would have won the Participation medal if it had been the Special Olympics.
yeah she was pretty bad but i also hope all the hate doesn't fuck her up too badly
She really did the sprinkler🤣
How come break dancing is considered a sport? Lets include singing as a sport. Utterly ridiculous
We do NOT need another American Idol, Amerika's Got Talent, or The Masked Singer. DON'T encourage those executives, please.
Well done..
You've managed to embarrasse an entrie country!!!
I hope Australia makes this a tradition
Breakdancing has not been included on the schedule for the 2028 Games, a decision that was taken before this summer's Olympics had begun.
Leave my girl raygun alone she was abvoisbsly letting her competition win and lost on purpose. Also she was representing her country with the cankargoo
Didn't break the Internet
i don’t care just give me the full video omfg
A PhD in break-dancing?
It was her duty to compete in the Special Olympics.
C's get degrees, mate
I remember reading recently she's majoring in Woke Studies of the human simp. True lie, folks! :D
@@themichaelconnor42Not really 😂 Especially not PhD’s.
Well, not all is lost, she could still tour with Corey Feldman.
Popcorn? Check! Comfy seat? Check! Musical and dancing trainwreck with a side of Dumpsterfire? Let the show begin!
If you ever feel useless,think about Rachel Gunn!!!
That’s the most absolute, extremely, over the top dance we could ever see
I just wish she would own the moment! She has entertained millions and become more famous than any of the breakdance medalists. Go Raygun!
Breakdancing is good to watch, but it shouldnt be a Olympic sport.
I didnt even know it was an event until i heard about this news
I’m on the fence if it’s a good watch. Even if the person is good I always think they could be doing something even better with that talent.
She was not good to watch. Real break dancing is good to watch. And if real competitive break dancers could try out for the Olympics that would be great. I saw her "dance" it was terrible. Aparently it was her husband who selected her to compete 😂
@@jondoe1851 watch the other countries performances.. they were actually good. This woman is a scam artist
I feel sorry for her..i really really do..this is disturbing
This is a joke right....this is in the Olympics
Australian Covid camp has a got away.
Can I just find a video of her break dancing don’t need a bunch of knobs talking about it
The guy was right she did nothing wrong. She got 0pts because what she did was shit
This is a Disrespect to Our culture!! How can you have our cultural Dance & Not have 1 Foundational Black American Creator as the Judge of this Competition!! Break dancing is a dance of soul in our culture and she made a mockery of our culture like France made a mockery of Christ! This Olympics is taking Mad " L's "
We don’t need the commentary show us the actual video
