@@nazur72 That's not true - the US Olympic Committee decided they would not include breaking in LA 2028 before Paris 2024 even started. Olympic host cities collaborate with the International Olympic Committee years in advance to determine which sports to include in their program in addition to the core 28. If anything, Raygun brought publicity to the Olympics and breakdancing, which is net positive for both organisations.
The best part is that it looks like they’re both having the absolute time of their lives. This is what joyful competition looks like. This is true sportsmanship 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
basically gymnastic rings without the rings. The physical strength required to hold some of the poses and the flexibility to pull off some of the moves is great
The thing is, there is no set of standards to judge the performance of each candidate in breakdance. Judges may have preferences. Until they come up with a way to score more fairly, I wouldn't be surprised people don't support breakdance being in the olympics. The Australian lady, however, was blatantly bad in terms of showcasing the most basic breakdance technique.
Why u stuck with Raygun? She obviously made a mockery of the art. Even my friend who doesn’t even know how to break at all can copy her moves. Raygun’s husband was part of the judging group its no wonder she got in. She DOES NOT represent breaking at all PERIOD
And you don't even have to watch the final to know raygun's bad. She mostly destroyed 0-9 every round by the opposite breakdancer in the early stages. 😂
Phil wizard gave an excellent performance and I don't understand why everyone is mad about breaking being in the Olympics. It requires incredible athleticism, flexibility and dexterity and is no less of a sport than rhythmic gymnastics or any other sports in the Olympics. It seems like people are making judgements about breaking based on their preconceived notions of dance as frivolous. Have an open mind
I don't understand either. I'm 60, considered a Boomer by my age, but I've never read so many Boomer comments. I think I'm in great shape and I couldn't do a tenth of what these two guys did, they're incredible athletes. I remember when snowboarding was first introduced at the Olympics, the crying was exactly the same.
I don’t think any judged sport other than maybe boxing should be in the olympics. Gold medals should be awarded based on measurable criteria, not opinions. This is by far the worst of the bunch.
Agree. I tried breaking when I was a kid. It is very difficult and you have to be constantly training otherwise you’ll lose all your progress in your movements. I know this is not a conventional sport, however, it takes just as much training as all others sports.
@@wayne6777 but why though? Just because a sport is judged based on somewhat subjective criteria, that doesnt mean that it can't provide value as a sport.
I came here because a lot of people are complaining about the olympic breakdancing, i used to break dance as well back in my teens, and what i saw here is nothing but short of greatness. Anyone complaining seems to be a couch potato trying to be relevant.
I think most of the complaint goes to one particular person not the whole sport but sadly that make this amazing performance kind of swept under the rug.
@@khoofei4503 From Oxford Dictionary (you are welcome): an activity involving physical exertion and skill in which an individual or team competes against another or others for entertainment.
I know its not labeled a sport, but dancers, including ballet dancers, are have some of the strongest physiques in the world. Dancing takes physical capability, dexterity and also has artistic element not unlike gymnastics and ice skating. I think its quite sporty! ---I'm not a dancer though, just an admirer of dancing.
After watching the Australian woman, I wanted to see what the rest looked like. I was also going to post a cynical comment saying it's not an Olympic event they are not athletes. After watching this... they both are skilled, athletic and fine examples sportsmanship, bravo.
Look at breakdancing videos on UA-cam of what those kids did before it got to this level. Truly amazing and at this stage breakdancing is a bit watered down in comparison in my opinion.
If Artistic/Synchronized Swimming can be part of Olympics, why not this? This actually looks quite difficult to pull off and it requires a lot of physical prowess. I don't understand why there is so much hate for breakdancing as an Olympic sport. Granted it will need to be improved in the future by adding more games like team dance-offs and personal routines and skills display to music chosen by the dancers. For now, I feel breakdancing can be a valuable addition to the Olympics. Don't get me wrong, Cricket, Kabaddi, Tug of War, etc should also be added as Olympic sports, but breakdancing also deserves a spot in the Olympics. PS. The chemistry and competitive nature between the dancers was amazing.
@@GWT_A But at the end synchronized swimming is the same, it will depend of the judges, even if we think they are synchronized the judge can say something different... this kind of "sports" that are art, are hard to judge...that's why they need specialized judges.
@@GWT_A Synchronised swimming is one example but there are many sports that have been part of the Olympics for a very long time that don't have objective scoring systems. Think of gymnastics, diving, equestrian and some combat sports such as boxing just to name a few and there are even more in the Winter Olympics such as figure skating and free style snowboarding. Of course there is a risk that judges will be bias but as there is no better way to score these sports it's a risk that we have to accept but this risk isn't even unique to these sports. There are plenty of sports with objective scoring systems that have had cheating scandals and unfair results etc. so that point doesn't really hold any weight in my opinion. I think what is strange, is that people are singling out breakdancing but can't explain why it's different from so many of the widely accepted Olympic sports I've listed above. If you don't think any sports with a subjective element to their scoring should be included in the Olympics, it would be very short event indeed.
This is the most sophisticated way of settling disputes. Competetive dancing. Friendly too. They know what's up. It's not about who's got the biggest ego, it's about who's able to most closely ride that wave.

Anyone hating on Breaking probably never did a Push Up in his life. Bboys and bgirls are more athletic than your favourite athletes. We had several Tests, where the breakers made way more points than the average athletes. Tests included: Balance, jump height, Speed, stamina etc. I See all the Indians in the comment Section asking for kabadi and cricket. I really Hope they add those Sports for you guys but its not fair hate on breaking, just to make others Sports Look better.
Who're the test subjects? High school kids? Or actual Olympians? If they beat them in any sort of athletic endeavour then go ahead and win a medal in the actual Olympics? Am very ok with breakdancing being in Olympics (if they can come up with some kind of standard scoring metric) but I just don't think them being "more athletic" is a factual comment
Excelling at breakdancing translates so well into other sports and disciplines more than most other physical activity. Along with gymnastics they’re easily one of the best athletes
Everyone in the comments thinking they're comedians. It's so boring and disrespectful to these astonishing athletes. I don't get how anyone can not see the level of skill, fitness and strength they brought to the competition. Hope breaking will be back in 2032 ✌️
All the haters of the Break dance modality, whining about if Olympics is about dance, have to remember that Olympics have this modality called Rythmic Gymnastics, which has never been questioned.

Absolutely stunning. The addition of break dancing was the best decision in the 2024 Olympics. Loved the way both of them competed especially the Frenchman he was brilliant applauding his opponent and dancing with a smile throughout.
@ricadioy definitely not. I have been breakdancing since 2000, i also have done a lot of triathlons. I know which is more taxing on the body. If you only look at powermoves then sure but most of the sets are low HR stuff.
We don't need to be able to do a move. We just don't watch it and capitalism solves the problem. PS: I can 'judge' as much as I want. It's an expression of my opinion using my freedom of speech.. it's not a 'judgement'. I'm not sending anyone who thinks differently into a gulag, lol. Also, your post is deeply hypocritical.. You judge people without listening or mentioning their arguments or concerns about why it shouldn't be an olympic sport.
Breaking is subjective yes, but it can also be judged via various preset criteria that can be somewhat easily measured. Ex. It is relatively easy to judge vocabulary, musicality, execution, and perhaps creativity. It’s just that a vast majority of people don’t do breaking, and therefore have trouble understanding the breaking terminology or criteria.
If you look at the history of the Olympics, art and painting were once an event, amongst other things. It's unfortunate that breaking won't be in LA 😢. I think the coverage wasn't high profile in France. It was an excellent games hosted by Paris ❤
@@markkealy4417 Okay it's Dancing and? It still requires incredible skill and dedication to pull of what these guys do and make it look so easy. Even if it was just normal dancing, it doesn't change the fact they are the best of the best to do it. That's what olympics is about, not some arbritrary set of criteria that qualifies it as a sport worthy of olympics. Olympic sport can be anything that has enough following and interest, because Olympics are about bringing people all over the world to celebrate things they love. Be it Basketball, Athletics, Football or Dancing.
Anyone that thinks this shouldn’t be apart of the olympics and is mad that this is considered an Olympic sport is just hard coping that their favourite sport isn’t in the Olympics. The amount of creativity, training and dedication that needs to be put into this is astounding. Small minded people need to really reevaluate their logical reasoning 😂
Prob cause its a art form not a sport. Pathetic FYI several of my favorite sports in the Olympics. All of them actual sports not meme fools prancing around like a Australian epileptic on a red ant hill.
@@ElonBhai-f9m is rhythmic gymnastics or synchronized swimming a sport? Figure skating? By the way, I don't even like the ones I just mentioned at all. But I can respect it. And I think it has its place. Alot of these technical sports are incredibly boring to watch in my opinion, so instead of being completely a dry experience, I don't think it hurts that there is some things that aren't purely technical, but half technical, half artistic. That's what Breaking is.
Wanna know what delusion looks like? Just read through the comments of all the no-lifers trying to claim that Breaking shouldn't have been part of the Olympics 🤣
Jeeta to Japan China khud se kuch na ho to criticize hi kar sakte hai khud to chokli hohit gulli dande se upar uth nhi sakte jo Jeet rha h usse jalan alag😂😂 vaah re mentality
All the comments saying that this shouldn’t be a sport revealing the layers of internalised racism/classism people haven’t dealt with yet 😂 It’s like HOW DARE an art form created in the STREETS by BLACK and LATINO people be put into a competition. WHO DO THEY THINK THEY ARE!!! ?? 😡 You’ve gotta love it though. The 31 other dancers were sensational but people choosing to hone in on raygun who was the only weak one Luckily the world is leaving such peopel behind and this was an example of it. What an awesome event 👏🏽
Hmmm... I wonder what rhythmic gymnasts, synchronized swimmers, and figure skaters are about?... 💀 How you complaining about breakdancing when you have those? You're joking FR
@urameshi4725 lol the first bboys were poor American kids and young adults who partied together in the Bronx. Some of them were Latino(PR,DR, and cuban), some of them were Black American, African or Jamaican, the white kids were usually Italian, Jewish or of Irish decent. The first Bboy crew was the rocksteady crew, cleaaaarly multiracial, hip hop history is extremely well documented and most of the hip hop OGs at least for dancing are still alive.
My opinion breaking should be in the Olympics, but not yet. I'd rather see it sponsored and lobbied by redbull as it's been working with as an extreme sport for the past 20+, or a group other than the World DanceSport. It's an extremely political ballroom organisation, ballroom literally whitewashes/europeanises American, latin and afro dancing in the partner dance space and says their version is better. I think the actual community could work to form a proper and a competitive global committee and create standards that aren't based on Eurocentric qualifiers for dance as a sport. Urban dance communities are extremely well organised.
this is what olympic competition should really be about. having fun with your fellow athletes from across the world, while showing pride for your country. you can be competitive and show sportsmanship as well
its akin to gysmanstics id say. breaking/breakdancing being reliant of music background and calisthenics, and the cognitive skill to sync with the rhythm transitioning w/ the songs timing.
It's a shame that woman from Australia might become the sole reason we won't have breakdancing in the Olympics anymore. Because this feels more like a party than an uptight competition.
B BOY did a lot better in my opinion I slow down the video and 2:48 analyzed it he did a lot better honestly a robbery that much more coordination and steadiness with his moves
Bro Phil Wizard brought the heat since the first round. Ol boy was spazzing out straight out the gate. B Boy either underestimated his opponent or he wasn’t on his A game that day. Nevertheless, both guys did great but Phil Wizard is indeed the rightful winner.
@Neelinmact The governing body of chess (FIDE) is recognized by the IOC and any IOC recognized sport can be included in the Olympics program. I mean, they are literally looking forward to introducing e-sports at the games ffs.
That was so fun to watch! ❤ this literally brought me so much joy to see the discipline these two obviously have and yet, both were really just enjoying themselves. I really hope they do this event again in 2028 regardless of the drama and memes with Australia

Breaking is subjective yes, but it can also be judged via various preset criteria that can be somewhat easily measured. Ex. It is relatively easy to judge vocabulary, musicality, execution, and perhaps creativity. It’s just that a vast majority of people don’t do breaking, and therefore have trouble understanding the breaking terminology or criteria.
What wonderful sportsmanship on display. Respect for their opposition
Phil Wizard is a wizard on floor.
0:55 "aaaah..lets go Daddy" 😂😂🤣 calm down darling
IT'S DANY NOT DADDY ARE YOU DEAF? DANY IS HIS NAME
She says danny😂
Fantastique work - well deserved! 💪🏼
Yeah. Now THIS Is breakdancing 😎😎
If you look at the history of the Olympics, art and painting were once an event, amongst other things. It's unfortunate that breaking won't be in LA 😢. I think the coverage wasn't high profile in France. It was an excellent games hosted by Paris ❤
Phil gave me goosebumps in every round. Epic. Well deserved 👏
Phil crushed the finals… wasn’t even close in my eyes… so technical with every move
Wow. This is more than just sports. Thank you, Paris, for including it. Much much better than adding E-sports to the games.
The respect they have for each other makes it even better. kudos to both of them.
True B-boying is an art but its not as easy as dancing. It takes lot of core strength to be able to pull off moves without any prop or support.
It is dancing
@@markkealy4417 Okay it's Dancing and? It still requires incredible skill and dedication to pull of what these guys do and make it look so easy. Even if it was just normal dancing, it doesn't change the fact they are the best of the best to do it. That's what olympics is about, not some arbritrary set of criteria that qualifies it as a sport worthy of olympics.
Olympic sport can be anything that has enough following and interest, because Olympics are about bringing people all over the world to celebrate things they love. Be it Basketball, Athletics, Football or Dancing.
Anyone that thinks this shouldn’t be apart of the olympics and is mad that this is considered an Olympic sport is just hard coping that their favourite sport isn’t in the Olympics. The amount of creativity, training and dedication that needs to be put into this is astounding. Small minded people need to really reevaluate their logical reasoning 😂
Nobody disputes that, but has breaking ever functioned as an orgnanised sport?
Prob cause its a art form not a sport. Pathetic FYI several of my favorite sports in the Olympics. All of them actual sports not meme fools prancing around like a Australian epileptic on a red ant hill.
Yeah...but is dancing really a sport ??
@@ElonBhai-f9m has more physical exertion than equestrian
@@ElonBhai-f9m is rhythmic gymnastics or synchronized swimming a sport? Figure skating? By the way, I don't even like the ones I just mentioned at all. But I can respect it. And I think it has its place. Alot of these technical sports are incredibly boring to watch in my opinion, so instead of being completely a dry experience, I don't think it hurts that there is some things that aren't purely technical, but half technical, half artistic. That's what Breaking is.
I love how both of them were smiling and having fun w it. Wholesome.
I hope they keep this in…
I just hope this becomes a thing in the olympics in the longrun.
I like Danny Dann, acknowledging his oppenents talent❤❤❤ cheers to him
Atlast we have one enjoyable event in the olympics
The whole battle was 4 minutes and you make a 3 minutes highlight video that is poorly cut. What is the point of this?
I love how even during the battle there’s nothing but respect between them.
Go Canada! Showing the aussies how it's done!
Wanna know what delusion looks like? Just read through the comments of all the no-lifers trying to claim that Breaking shouldn't have been part of the Olympics 🤣
People are finding out how friendly bboy battels are and it makes me happy
Europe me Jo game hota whi Olympics me hota he😅
Ye bas isi Olympic me hoga

classic indian mentality chess ayega aage but carrom ?
All the comments saying that this shouldn’t be a sport revealing the layers of internalised racism/classism people haven’t dealt with yet
😂
It’s like HOW DARE an art form created in the STREETS by BLACK and LATINO people be put into a competition. WHO DO THEY THINK THEY ARE!!! ?? 😡
You’ve gotta love it though. The 31 other dancers were sensational but people choosing to hone in on raygun who was the only weak one
Luckily the world is leaving such peopel behind and this was an example of it. What an awesome event 👏🏽
Hmmm... I wonder what rhythmic gymnasts, synchronized swimmers, and figure skaters are about?... 💀
How you complaining about breakdancing when you have those? You're joking FR
It was created by Blacks not Latino's.
@@jeongna I’m not complaining. I’m calling out people who are complaining. We share the same opinion
@urameshi4725 lol the first bboys were poor American kids and young adults who partied together in the Bronx.
Some of them were Latino(PR,DR, and cuban), some of them were Black American, African or Jamaican, the white kids were usually Italian, Jewish or of Irish decent.
The first Bboy crew was the rocksteady crew, cleaaaarly multiracial, hip hop history is extremely well documented and most of the hip hop OGs at least for dancing are still alive.
My opinion breaking should be in the Olympics, but not yet. I'd rather see it sponsored and lobbied by redbull as it's been working with as an extreme sport for the past 20+, or a group other than the World DanceSport.
It's an extremely political ballroom organisation, ballroom literally whitewashes/europeanises American, latin and afro dancing in the partner dance space and says their version is better.
I think the actual community could work to form a proper and a competitive global committee and create standards that aren't based on Eurocentric qualifiers for dance as a sport. Urban dance communities are extremely well organised.
I'm Canadian and didn't hear anywhere that we won gold. I just searched for the finals. Amazing work bud. Made Canada proud.
whats the track that starts from 0:55? anyone please?
It takes two - Rob Base
A remix of it
Plz add langdi taang
Another frustrated Indian.
this is what olympic competition should really be about. having fun with your fellow athletes from across the world, while showing pride for your country. you can be competitive and show sportsmanship as well
It’s too bad this got overshadowed by Raygun.
The best one was the Japanese Shigekix who for some reason ends up at 4th place.
Shigekix was the best one without a doubt, him not being on the podium was kind of a shame
Toned, top of their game, these guys are effortless. Props
Oh, so that's what it's supposed to look like
Does this games suit the motto of Olympic? From any angle.
Yup , from gymnastics angle , definitely ,, very tough and requires agility ,
Competitiveness, athleticism, pushing human body limits, yes
The rest, no
Not really they should leave this stuff to redbull.
Faster, higher, stronger? All there. So yeah.
I wouldn't expect an Indian to know anything about sports 😂
Think like an artist, train like an athlete. That's a great quote.
Thin line between art and sports 😂😂
bingo
There are a lot of sports in Olympics of this nature tho
its akin to gysmanstics id say. breaking/breakdancing being reliant of music background and calisthenics, and the cognitive skill to sync with the rhythm transitioning w/ the songs timing.
Mirgee
Phil wizard was amazing.. both of them were absolutely great!!
It's a shame that woman from Australia might become the sole reason we won't have breakdancing in the Olympics anymore.
Because this feels more like a party than an uptight competition.
B BOY did a lot better in my opinion I slow down the video and 2:48 analyzed it he did a lot better honestly a robbery that much more coordination and steadiness with his moves
This is why you are not an Olympic judge 😂
Bro Phil Wizard brought the heat since the first round. Ol boy was spazzing out straight out the gate. B Boy either underestimated his opponent or he wasn’t on his A game that day. Nevertheless, both guys did great but Phil Wizard is indeed the rightful winner.
Yeah absolutely not lmao
I love how both of them show each other respect and appreciation throughout the whole match
Is this a GAME 😮😮😮 ?
Chess is not a part of Olympics but this is what a joke 😂😂😂
Obviously chess is not a part of olympics , it’s not athletic , we have olympiads for chess
@Neelinmact The governing body of chess (FIDE) is recognized by the IOC and any IOC recognized sport can be included in the Olympics program. I mean, they are literally looking forward to introducing e-sports at the games ffs.
@@educationpurpose9295 they maybe but we already have a chess Olympiad ,
This competition made a true supporter out of this skeptic! Genuine sportsmanship and athleticism at its finest.
Why no Parkour
Would have been a perfect opportunity for France to introduce it to the Olympics… then next Time breaking in America 🤦♂️
The Japense guy was robbed
That was so fun to watch! ❤ this literally brought me so much joy to see the discipline these two obviously have and yet, both were really just enjoying themselves. I really hope they do this event again in 2028 regardless of the drama and memes with Australia
