Raygun won the Oceania selection event. The Oceania Olympic selection event (The QMS 2023 WDSF Oceania Breaking Championships) in October 2023 brought together the top Breakers, both Bgirls and Bboys. A panel of 9 international adjudicators, a head judge and a chairperson who oversaw the competition, using the same judging system at the Paris Games and trained to uphold the highest standards of impartiality. These judges are all highly respected in their respective communities and in the international Breaking scene. There were 15 that showed up for the event. She was the best that showed up on the day. Have a think about that. Clearly break dancing in Australia there is not a lot of people with talent. Who would have thought.
Let's call it what it is. Corruption. Australians have such nice words to describe something that they would have called corruption if it was an African
Of course the entire planet is laughing at Australia for entering such an inept break-dancer. It wasn't a display of athletic prowess or skill...it was a comedic and rather horrifying debacle. What were you thinking???
I give Australia credit for always trying to be progressive in the worst ways possible and then landing flat on their face. Policing, Covid, etc. It’s like a guide for, “How to do “blank” so good that it isn’t.”
Im Australian and I can’t disagree with what your saying.. Australians are laughing too, it’s not Friday night at the local club, that’s where you have a “crack”, not at the olympics where it’s supposed to be the best of the best in your sport
no! the whole world is NOT laughing at Australia.... but laughing at the woke-dancer, that participated to represent an ideology, not a country! Australian people MUST demand the a full reimbursement of the cost (plus 10% interest and VAT) incurred during the olympic!!!
I don’t care about the olympics. Raygun is just another DEI pick from academia - so of course she’ll end up making a fool of herself, it goes with the territory.
Raygun, lost her three round-robin breaking battles Friday by scores of 18-0, 18-0 and 18-0..... So basically it was 54-0 ----------- SHE WAS THAT BAD! Edited my bad --- got confused anyway it is 54 indeed.
@@trick_bag I was referring more to the media. As an Australian it is extremely embarrassing, especially as an athletic nation. Appreciate you guys seeing through the 💩💨 anyway.
Anna Meares and Perkins really need to choose their words better. Australians do not take lightly to having their opinions gaslighted by athletes, even if they once won Gold medals. We all have eyes and ears you know.
What a total humiliation to Australia .. Australians and our Olympic team… there needs to be an investigation … what a joke !!! We apologise to the world
Look as a British person I first congratulate Australia on a great Olympics ... But yes the break dancer was a joke ... its not only Australia's shame though, its all of the western worlds for allowing this sort of a woke thing to happen in the first place ... you know, a British woman athlete broke her leg 2 miles into the marathon but refused to quit and went on to complete the marathon, that's the sort of non medal performance that we should all be praising and celebrating ... a person showing true grit in the face of adversity, not a person behaving like a joke and embarrassment
@@g-man7938 it's confirmed. After making its debut in the 2024 Paris Olympics, breaking - or breakdancing - will not return for the 2028 games in Los Angeles. The dance competition was well received at the Paris games, with some breakout moments that included a viral and unique routine from Australia’s Rachael Gunn, a.k.a. Raygun.
Australia has nothing to be embarrassed about... The entire 2024 Olympics were a total shitshow (just look at the Seine River 💩)!!! Plus the whole thing about the 💩that hit that poor lady in the boxing 🥊). I've never before seen a 💩 awarded a medal. Oh and the opening AND ending ceremonies were both 💩! So yeah, the whole thing stunk bad.
Look. I know your echo chamber collectively orgasmed over all the bs they could say about all that, but this doesn't change the fact that the opening had nothing to do with Christianity, the majority of people enjoyed it and the evil tank man (according to Russia...) lost 9 of HER (born female) 14 fights. Wooow, what a huge advantage, huh?
NARCISSISM Psychology selfishness, involving a sense of entitlement, a lack of empathy, and a need for admiration, as characterizing a personality type.
@@iamkamsaiwell we're trying to expose how ridiculous leftist way is at the same time, we want more that more😂😂 pretty sure both America and Australia want to send all the left to Gaza and leave them there.
Keiran Perkins and Anna Meares have denigrated their own performances at the Olympics. Neither of them could put their hands on their hearts say that that was a worthy performance for the Olympics. It has nothing to do with her being a woman or an older competitor but she was just not up to Olympic standards. I dare both Anna and Keiran to say that Rayguns performance was equal or better than any performance they put in at the Olympics.
If she was not going to perform to Olympic standard, why go....obviously someone else missed out on the opportunity to go to the Olympics and represent Australia..
100% that's what makes my blood boil. We keep being told we have to support these people else they can't reach their best and now we ar e being told to pay so someone can have a cr a ck.....wtf!
Did she kidnap and hold the true competitor hostage in the backroom? Imagine the people who worked real hard for years for a chance, a spot, to represent their nation and to show their capabilities but were robbed of their chance by clowns.
I only saw a replay of Rayguns performance and honestly I thought she was just someone from the crowd fooling around for the cameras. Breakdancing shouldn’t be in the olympics anyway. Let the kids have fun yes but let’s leave it out of the Olympics I’ve heard LA won’t be including breakdancing in their games.
Actually, the person she "beat" out to get that trip to Paris made Breaking look like Ballet and Gymnastics. The two men show down for Gold was pretty impressive athleticism. They have to keep the Games relevant. It's either this or tagging, car jacking or looting.
Her husband was on the committee that elected to send her over other, better, breakdancers. She said in an interview that someone told her that dynamic movement was her weakness, which apparently didn't ring any alarm bells, even though breakdancing is ALL dynamic dancing lol. She chose not to train for "dynamic dancing" (aka breakdancing), just putting on something strange that she can call "creative" because she thinks her PhD in breakdancing makes her smarter than any legitimate breakdancer.
We have more two legged sheep than actual sheep, unfortunately. People get what they vote for and we’ll all suffer for it. I’ll be writing Trump on my next Aussie ballot as all ours are total wankers.
The best part of watching her rolling around and hopping around was the absolute shock and horror on the people's faces around the ring....one guy looked like he was in shock....others were keeping their heads down to avoid bursting out laughing. I actually thought it was a prank/joke at first, but, it was so horrible I thought if it is a prank, it's beyond horrible.
Yes, lets give her a medal for simply showing up. Lets not risk hurting her feelings. That attitude makes me sick. Her performance was awful and she has to own it.
Perkins needs to remember that we remember him cause he was, by a massive margin, the best in the world. If he had rocked up saying "Oh, I can't actually swim that fast or far, but really want to do a cannon ball in the official pool" he wouldn't even have a wiki page. Get over yourself Perkins. Gunn was rubbish and possibly corrupt.
Allegations have been made that 1) She formed her own organisation to stack the cards in her favour during qualifying 2) Appointed her husband as coach, and judge at Olympic qualifying, even though he has as much talent as she does. This is clear nepotism and a conflict of interest 3) Had funds diverted from an NT youth group's breaking performers to support her own efforts These allegations have yet to be substantiated, but from the evidence presented, there should at least be an inquiry into how funding, qualifying and management of the Australian Women's breaking representation. We paid for it, after all.
What!?? How dare the media say anything critical about Trump's interview when the same media lets Harris get away with infantile drivel. If I feel like a comedy break, I just watch a few seconds of Kamala talking. It is hillarious. She is her own best parody. Mind you, a few seconds is all I can bear - I want to have some sanity left.
@@Ash-hi5hy Oh, honey! I'm sorry, I'm not from the US, I'm from a real democracy with more than two parties and where no one would buy merchandise, or advertise, for any politician. But it's painfully obvious, that you guys are obsessed with an old guy that keeps blabbering the same, old, imaginary crap, you act like he's your lord and saviour, you had a golden statue of him and in your eyes he can do no wrong. That's cult behaviour! So many of you lost their families, burned down all bridges, just to mindlessly follow a grifting "billionaire" that tanked all businesses he ever had (including a casino! xD) and got sued many times for fraud. A guy who stole from a childrens charity and bragged about watching teenage girls change. When he says your country is going to end without him you all forget that he only was in charge for four years and those weren't any better than the rest. You obey your whole self to him, whilst he rants like a toddler and wouldn't piss in your face even if you were on fire. You're following a cult leader. Because you can't say anything negative about him. For reference: Fck Harris, fck Biden. See? No one cares. But say fck Trimp and his well trained followers throw a fit and... probably put on a diaper. Obscene. Cultish. Weird.
Athletes generally have to make a minimum quantifiable standard to even qualify for the Olympics. Seems like there was no minimum standard for break dancing.
The Woke Australian Olympic Committee is making a laughingstock out of the entire nation. Just admit Raygun has no business performing in a street show for tips, much less at the Olympics.
I love being told what to think by someone who has never met me. So it’s … agree with me, think like me, or get back in your box. Kieren should no longer be representing Australians any more with an attitude like that.
2 takeaway from this Paris 2024 Olympics. 1- Australia could not believe Chinese swimmers are better than them and think it is humanly impossible to swim that fast without drugs. 2- Raygun is Australia's best break dancer in a population of 26.01m.
Australia as evidenced in the Olympics is a brute of a sporting superpower. An Aussie athelete who dons the uniform simple transforms into a superhuman..be it in cricket, rugby , athletics or any major sport. Respect for them. Until this stunt. This PoS. Forever tarnished by that crap. And she was as bad as the Paris Olympic committee and their disastrous woke decisions.
"Bullied"? C'mon, no way she didn't know she was bad! What her and commission who selected her are criminals! They should be happy people are just laughing, because Australians have the right to be angry! I hope formal investigation will be done.
Agreed! What sports were included? Was it a local award or Australian wide? What kind of criteria was used to award it ie: winning a series of events, getting a PB better than others in your sporting area? How was the winner selected?
Even a 200kg woman can finish a 100m dash sooner or later if she is brought compete in the Olympics. This woman can't even get points when competing... That's worse than NOT competing.
If she didn’t get into the Olympics in the first place (like she shouldn’t have) none of this bullying would have happened. Can we get a definitive answer to how and why she was accepted?
Im 64, Aussie... old enough to remember when tardy just meant late for school. Still, if it was gonna happen, glad it was at the wokelympics in gay paris.. shame with all the woke crap that happened at this vegetarian farce.. the world is focusing on Australia 🇦🇺 for "BREAKING BAD"
