Raygun's Aussie Olympic Breakdancing Qualification Explained
Вставка
- Опубліковано 10 вер 2024
- Australia's Olympic Committee is demanding the removal of a petition attacking breaker Rachael 'Raygun' Gunn after false claims were made that she manipulated her way to a spot at the Paris Olympics.
So, how did she qualify for the Olympics?
#Raygun #RachaelGunn #breakdancing
I'm not Australian, but I refuse to believe there aren't any better female breakdancers than her in the country...
The person she beat in the qualifying rounds was way better. So corrupt
They are in damage control, they know they may have wronged other Australian dancers but refuse to admit to it. If there is any truth to it, it will come out in the wash. Its not going away anytime soon.
I second that
@@iankearns774 threatening legal action over a petition and calling anyone trolls who dare asks what the hell happened. I personally find it insulting our tax payers money paid for that so we are well within our rights to ask that valid question.
My great-niece is a better break-dancer. She's three.
She was awful. Doesn't matter how she got in. Selection committee should have a certain standard. If nobody has that standard then Don't send anyone.
Very good point, don’t send anyone and save $31000.
No she won best comedian of the Olympics 😂
So how does one know they have those standards? Nobody in the whole chain cared and now damage control is wild, It's pretty amazing tbh.
Yeah idgaf how she got in, her dance was atrocious, that should be the focus. She's embarrassing her country putting on such a performance.
She was good for the 1st Olympic games.
Please don't refer to her as an Athlete. She's not. That's an insult to athletes.
Right. She may be an Olympian but that doesn’t make her an athlete.
She’s a talentless hack.🤷♂️
She's an athlete

Not bullying. Its critique. You are at the Olympics so you are going to be judged and critiqued.
Exactly and score was zero for good reason!
There's definitely been some bullying
Critique is one thing but the falsehood has engendered more hate than was necessary.
@@ghostcat2467 She's been ridiculed, not bullied and she definitely is more than deserving of ridicule and criticism. Let's not change the definition of words to make out cheaters and incompetent people are now victims of bullying.
When has telling an ADULT that they are not good at something become “bullying”.

I want the CEO of the Aus Olympic Committee investigated as well now.
you'll have to dig deep into that trough to get his/her snout out. olimpigs
ok buddy then investigate it or tell the authorities. I dont think they will see your comment
Yep how they didn't see this is astonishing
What does the CEO of the AOC have to do with anything?
@@jasoncrumpet9764 I haven't seen the actual video anywhere but was told by a coworker that she basically jumped around slapping her butt cheeks and making fart noises the entire time and just made a real big mockery of the whole things and break dancing was eliminated all together for the next Olympics. Was told it'll likely be a free parking lot side show or something along those lines.
Its not hatred against an athlete at all..
Its hatred against misrepresentation!

@@mahatmacharya Dance may be expression but you missed the point of what style of expression. It's breakdancing not broke dancing 😂
@@mahatmacharyaAs a former 6 year old, I can relate to your frustration.
It’s not bullying to criticize someone’s performance. She had 3 rounds today show her athleticism and performed so utterly poorly that the judges awarded her no points. Then she has the audacity to defend her performance. She chose to compete , but doesn’t want the critique. The Australia Olympic Committee should be ashaamed that they were party to this embarrassment.
The Olympics have become a complete joke anyway. Raygun is a fitting mascot for the clown show.
I didn’t watch her perforamance. Did she do a non customary dance? I’ve seen unique floor routines in gymnastics that don’t score points bc they aren’t the normal moves but they were original and clearly took some practice and training and skill l
@@ImRanchWildershe did something youd expect a 6 year old to do after tapping you on the shoulder and saying “watch this”
Idk but to me she comes as a narcissistic person… she is all smiles even after that and confident that she did good and she said there is just “ some hate “ too and dont know why? Whyyy?
Girl u did a toddler dance while the whole world was watching
@@ImRanchWilder YOU HAVE TO WATCH IT! 😂😅 It wasn't non traditional it was..... Indescribable.
HERE ARE THE FACTS: the tryouts were BARELY advertised, on purpose. There are other dancers who came forward saying that. Things were manipulated so that as very few dancers knew about it.
That is why there were only 15 dancers that showed up. Are you not questioning that there are only 15 dancers out of a country of 27Mil showing up at Olympic tryouts??
Unbelievable, open to whole of Oceania, not just Australia, and 15 female breakers show up! 😮 Why did we send anyone? Participation award?
@@multioptioned yea exactly. If only 15 people showed up, it’s a clear sign that it wasn’t properly advertised. Obviously, on purpose…🤔
Her husband was part of the voting/selection committee.
Exactly!
@naomibailey9375 And they thought a 36yo was SO good after "beating" 14 other girls in the whole of Oceania, they just
HAD to send her to the Olympics?
Obviously, the qualification standard was set too low to be an Olympian in Australia for this "sport". I'm sure lots of other countries could have sent contestants if any had good enough representatives?
Trying to justify the unjustifiable decision now is ridiculous.
She scored zero points. Ur telling me she was taking this seriously??

She was sooooo bad. I am not the only one saying it, the Olympic judges said it very loud, big fat ZERO point. Please don't tell us she is the best that OZ has to offer.
Two of those judges were also at the qualifiers. So, it does seem she was the best OZ had to offer.

This was an absolute clown show. I can run the 100 meters in probably 18 seconds; I don’t belong anywhere near an international athletic competition. Neither did she. This wasn’t an inspirational 3rd world walk 3 hours a day to train type of thing, it’s a joke gone too far.
She qualified because someone thought it would be the funniest thing to see and talk about for years to come
Raygun , do you know it is a torture looking at your dancing ? Police will show your Olympic dancing video to those criminals who does not confess.

Damn, not even funny. I bet even kangaroos are embarrassed!
As an Australian, I’m embarrassed to say that Dr Raydumb comes from my country. She gets a free ride to the Olympics, and she and her husband are enjoying the holiday abroad.
you remain innocent...for the time being...just kidding, but it is a huge shame for Oz...let's call her the spinning wizard of Oz! ha
It sucks dude, there’s so many great breakers in Australia and we didn’t need another reason to be a laughing stock 🤦🏻♂️
We seem to be living in a time when we have lost the freedom to say 'you have no talent'.
Except this whole thing was about the spreading of misinformation, I'm trying to decide whether you're ignoring the point on purpose or just trying to get offended
everyone is a snowflake nowadays and needs a participation medal, we can’t even hold our olympic representatives accountable smh
Nah I’m sorry she is a fake Olympian and the fact that not even she or anyone in the committee can self reflect on how poor that display was for Australia speaks volumes. Pure gas lighting.
Why is she not allowed to be bad? Why does it matter? You're just one of those who gleefully takes part in destroying someone and it's disgusting. It's like that South Park episode about the town citizens all coming together to destroy the life of Britney Spears, because that's just what needs to be done every once in a while to keep society bonded.
This whole act is an unsult and defines the difference between influence and appropriation. Shame.
well said.
Do you even know what gaslighting means
Everyone knows who RAYGUN is . Who won the event ?
Idk what’s worse, rigging your way to the Olympics to perform like that on the stage… or qualifying fairly and still performing like that on the stage
Stop calling her a Break dancer, she's a grifter.
She is a dance breaker.
She is a Bacon dancer 😂

This isn't about hatred. It's about someone with utterly zero talent representing their country at the Olympics. It's embarrassing.
EXACTLY!
I like to think the judges were like that game show host in Billy Madison where he gives that speech on how awful Billy's answer is and he ends with, "I award you no points." 😂
Get over yourselves. Remember the Jamaican bobsled team? They had zero chance of winning a medal, but they went anyway. They became an amazing marketing tool for the sport, not just in Jamaica but throughout the Caribbean. And they inspired a funny movie starring John Candy.
@@WRLO56don't be a bozo. Jamaica didn't have ANYONE to represent a winter sport for obvious reasons smart one. If false equivalency had a face, it would be yours. Additionally, it was questionable how she got there in the first place. Lots of manipulation going on. You can go on to UA-cam right now and find at least five Australians that are 10 times the dancer she is. How about get over YOURself
@@WRLO56 good lord you missed the mark
That performance was an insult to all other Olympians.
The only thing that is "totally wrong" is that she was ever was selected to go to the olympics and taxpayers money was wasted on it!!
🎯
I'm pretty sure taxpayers are not involved in anything related to athletes going to the Olympics... The only thing wrong was her performance. It was not even revolutionary nor anything. It looks like an internet comedian snook into the Olympics... Her performance indeed deserved that score. The bully situation was not deserved whatsoever.
Tax payers?

For god's sake, not having the guts to criticize her is exactly how she ended up with the entire world laughing at her in the first place. Anyone with any contact with academia knows how much of a circlejerk it can be and outright incompetent people like this fail upwards.
Yes! I’ve watched a number of “journalists” laughing on-air about it and only report on the social media backlash and memes. Why don’t they actually look into the failures of the qualification process? I’m dumbfounded by the immaturity of all the reporting. Many Olympic and breakdancing fans aren’t laughing but genuinely upset.

The mainstream acting like its not OK to publicly discuss disliking someone who clearly did a terrible and very controversial job at the olympics is absolutly bonkers. Apparently we're not allowed to dislike things anymore because it might cause a bad thought somewhere out there in the void. These people have gone completely insane.
It becomes hatred and bullying when people are creating lies about her and fully believing she cheated her way in when there is no evidence of that. Yeah, her routine was bad and we seriously need to question why she selected. But creating baseless rumors because you don’t like her routine? That’s what you consider criticism? Like leave the poor woman alone tf if you want to be mad at someone be mad at the committee for having such low standards and not popular advertising the try outs.
"why are they attacking me" maybe because she looked like a toddler throwing a fit and then she did "kangaroo hands" which.... Come on, we all laughed at. Its 100% her performance that got her laughed at.
It is okay and legitimate to laugh at her Olympic performance.
OVER.
@@FRESHL1887it's pretty much impossible not to laugh at it

@@notoriousbig73 Yeah...the one sitting in the back of the bus on the special seat maybe
anyone supporting her should be ashamed of themself.
the fact that her partner was not involved in the decision, does not mean that having a partner like that has noting to do with her being selected.
Notice the accusation was that she AND her husband founded and were part of the Australian break dancing committee. Yet everyone who calls that false, including the people in this video, ONLY talk about how SHE didn't found the committee. No one mentions anything about the husband, or tries to claim that he didn't found or doesn't hold a major role in the Australian break dancing committee. They only talk about her. Likely because they know it's true that her husband absolutely is in a position where he was able to heavily influence the results and get her selected.
It's such a joke and the fact that Australia is fighting this just makes them look even more pathetic than Rachel already has lmao.
@@tbaxter07 didn't happen. It would have been called out by the Olympic committee, and can't find anything on it anyway.
@@tbaxter07funny that on her husbands ig it still is up that he did infact judge at this competition. It seems like this is a cover up for not having to deal with the absolute failure to realize both of them are not fit for any of this.
I walked through Forrest Chase in Perth City, Australia just a few years ago and stopped to watch a breakdancing crew that were absolutely killing it. There was a young girl in the crew,, around the age of 16 who was doing some insane tricks, spinning on her head and breaking just as well as the guys.
There is absolutely NO excuse for the total and utter garbage Australia produced at the Olympics.
Yeah they mentioned some girls were too young. Do they not watch gymnastics? I feel bad for the youth there that actually would have made Australia proud.
@@JerryHatrickShortswhat he saw was a few years back, which means that the 16 year old girl is now much older.
@@JerryHatrickShorts It was back in around 2019 that I saw the young girl break dancing so I'm guessing she'd be around 20+ years old now.

This woman should be investigated. This was literally a joke; she knows full well she has no clue how to break dance. She did this to mock the sport and gain "fame". End of story. It isn't hate she is receiving. She is being called out as a fraud and trying to squirm herself out of accountability.
Right! I wonder if she thought she would become a sensation, had no idea she was dissing an entire community that goes back generations.
That’s a really weird long con mock job by her and her man then lol. You could argue they wanted a free trip to France I guess

@@nekaneka-lo2jsI saw an article online explaining the pool to choose from was tiny, especially because of stuff like how they had a short notice to have their stuff together, passports and such, and how not everyone was able to get to the qualifying event on such short notice either, it's a mess and the result is someone who shouldn't have been, did.😢
Stop defending her the Project. It was SHAMEFUL to most Australians.
did you really expect anything different?
Coming from someone who isn’t Australian.
They weren’t defending her, they debunked false info.
It just shows how corrupt things have become, prepare for lockdowns.
It was shameful to the culture of the people who created breakdancing
Can we stop labelling critique as bullying??! I mean we dont get to call her names or whatever but regardless of how they want to claim she got it, she was terrible
Most countries didn’t send breakers because they were not Olympic material, but Ausisies didn't care
They REALLY did not care.
B-girl Talash, from the Refugee Olympic team gets disqualified for making a political statement, wearing a blue cape that displayed the words "Free Afghan Women". She actually showed more talent than Raygun, yet this college Professor gets a "Free out of Jail card" and is able to perform continuously with no disqualification because it was an "artistic expression" according to the judges. 🤬
We need a royal commission immediately. Raygun has done millions in damage to Australia's reputation world-wide. The government should launch a civil suit against all offending parties.
People don't hate her, they hate fraud. She failed qualifiers outside of Australia but, somehow managed to qualify in Australia. She is not the best female breakdancer in Australia. She is a terrible dancer and should not have been anywhere near the breakdancing events. Her scores prove my point and I think an investigation into how she got to Paris should take place.
I have recently seen than this is because the Australia qualification has fail. Very short time to enter after have been declared. And for go in, you needed 3 sponsor + 1 valid passeport. And i suppose they take a lot of time. So many have not been able to qualify. Because the qualification sucked.
Amen
how is it bullying to say that her performance was an absolute embarrassment to watch?
Right. Sis showed up at the OLYMPICS expecting not to be judged? She’s a clown and so is anyone that takes this serious. This is genuinely such a troll & in the absolute worst place.
Just another victim card to play.
They were too busy rushing to her defence to even answer the basic question, why was she selected over other competitors? Surely there are many better break dancers in Australia...
Because those better break dancers didn't enter the qualifying event.
This olympic dance was hurtful to anyone who actually took the time to actually practice and have actual skill.
No it wasn't, you are being dramatic
Whatever she was doing, I know damn well that was not break dancing
I mean it was definitely break dancing just not impressive for an Olympic level.
Rachael Louise Gunn (Raygun) clearly was aware she made a mockery of the sport and Australia, yet went ahead with the event. Ego driven narcissist!
I'm Australian & I found it so embarrassing, I also signed the petition. If she has nothing to hide then has nothing to worry about, I wouldn't believe anything AOC says either.
She's being harass right now on the social media and internet and by signing that petition, you are only contributing to make it worse. Hope you are proud of yourself. Seriously, are there no other things more important than that in world or in Australia at the moment. Give that poor women some slack.

The chick can't breakdance. Period!
There is no reason she should be a considered an Olympic Athlete. She isn’t breakdancing at all. She’s doing something else and they feel bad for her. That’s what’s wrong with this world now. Everyone is too afraid to hurt each other’s feelings, so nobody tells the real truth and everyone sugar coats everything until it gets completely misconstrued and a total clown show. Making others suffer because one person cannot handle the truth.
Yep! So true.
Should just be an interpretive dance competition at this point and let Breakers compete with Foxtrotters and Salsa dancers..... Smh
This. Thank you for saying this
How did this routine ever get approved? I don't agree with spreading misinformation or bullying, but someone must be held responsible for allowing this to represent Australia at the Olympic level.
It's not a routine, they don't know what the music will be and they're expected to ad lib.... But even with that taken into account, it doesn't make it any better whatsoever
We all know, now, this is the qualification who sucked. The qualification has been declared on a very SHORT time, where you needed 3 sponsor and one passeport for qualify. So literally the majority of Australia has not been able to qualify. I suppose than the time to got your passeport, the qualification has already been done.
in all fairness, folks, it should be clarified about the rules of the competition...dancers- i mean breakers- were to face off and react to opponents dance moves, and also improvise to unknown music that is suddenly thrown at them...the least level of criticism should be that Raybunns was way too academic an athlete to be even moderately inspirational in the moment and instead, unfortunately, turned into an amalgamation of several furry animals...it may never ever again be considered as an olympic sport because it is, for the most part, an art form of a sub-cultural nature ( not like figure skating that relates well to ballet...) For next time, let's canvas the world of Circus for a new addition to the fail-ympics
Her performance was horrific. Is that hateful? No, it's not.
Too young? Since when is there an age limit? There's a video of a six year old girl that is much better than Raygun!
Too young but you have teenagers winning medals in gymnastics, a real sport.

As upsetting as it may be, what did she expect? She is not a good breakdancer or at the very least the routine was not good. Did she never watch herself? Did nobody tell her it was terrible beforehand? How exactly did she qualify?

My father used to be a breakdancer. Unfortunately, a freak accident occurred when he was attempting a move and he paralyzed himself waist down.
For the last 20 years, he was stuck in a wheelchair and had to watch breaking from the TV. He was complaining how he was better than the dancers they put out. Until he saw Raygun's Olympic performance. Her art moved my father so deeply that he miraculously got up from his wheelchair, walked to the window, and jumped off a 50-story building.
Credit to Raygun for giving my father his legs back.
This was beautiful. Perhaps the only beautiful thing to come from her performance. I applaud your epic dis skills.
I’m not crying, you are…
😅😅😅😅
BEST YT COMMENT EVER! Sorry about your dad! 😉
Wait your dad is Lazy Legs?
Imagine the devastation, humiliation and agony her fellow competitors must have felt who lost to her in the national level. Lol
She’s the best break dancer in Australia? Are you f kidding me 😂
Best in Oceania out of 15 entrants! 😂
Raygun da truth
Dude cheated on the resume
You mean to tell me that when you join a international competition people will judge your performance?? No!
I did breakdancing in the 70’s and it was nothing like that. We “flowed”. Her routine was horrible
She should be investigated,she used taxpayers money for aussies to be ridiculed..
That's not true. Olympics are independently funded
@@COHENFAMILY143 she still used government money to get there
@@COHENFAMILY143 Where is that "independently funded" fund coming from? From what I saw it can come from multiple sources, one of which is State/Territory Olympic Councils (isn't that also taxpayers' money), as well as donations.
And tbh, even IF it's completely "independently funded" which has nothing to do taxpayers' money, the fact is that there is still a fund, and that fund has to come from somewhere, AND there is a potential misuse of the fund. It needs to be investigated.
For example if it's coming from the general public's donations, are the people happy with how their donations have been used like this?
Ask any real breakdancer… This was the biggest troll in history.
Where is Ashton Kucher because the whole world just got Punked!!!!!!!!
If this is the best Australia has to offer, maybe next time, do not send anybody?
Doing it tough. Yeah. She's on a 2-week extended holiday in Europe. We paid to fly her there, and we're paying to fly her back.
The lies are all lies, but it's still sus that someone with such scant athleticism & ability is "the best" in Australia when we see much better breakers everywhere.
In the end, the real problem is that she didn't attempt to COMPETE. By her own admission, she knew she had no chance, so she just set out to be amusing.
A lot of people didn't like that. I want my money back.
Having a PhD in breaking is a scam in itself! What is Macquarie University thinking?
As an American looking at this from an Ex B-Boy perspective. Her performance was absolutely degrading to the culture, history, and all the athletes.
Her performance was mocking and disgraceful towards her country, and they should be appalled by it not embracing. If embracing her is in fact they're choice Australia should be barred from ever competing in it again.
Also, since the 2028 LA Olympics are in the here and they're is no confirmed Breaking event to be announced that shows that this might have been set-up to be done on purpose thus sabotaging this sport in future.
LA announced back in October that they weren’t including breaking in the 2028 games
Reminds me of when Roseanne Barr sang the national anthem. It went over like a lead balloon. The nation rejected her for making a mockery of our anthem.
Once a B-Boy always a B-Boy.❤
Everyone can see she is not up to Olympic Standards. This information should have been provided to her directly before embarrassing herself the committee and Australia. Sad to see no one had enough love to be honest with her.
Thanks for the link to the Petition!! I wasn't aware of it before, but I'll head over and sign it now thanks to you guys..
Did you listen to the full video? The claims in the petition are false apparently
The petition is calling for transparency on how this tax payers fraud happened that's all
@@TheAlyconaria I dont buy that for a moment, you saw her dance. I doubt she is the best in her suburb.
@@iankearns774 I doubt she's the best breaker in her school. Jonah and poly force gonna represent
@@iankearns774doesn't mean she cheated. People were mocking all of the contenders in the Australian trials, not just her.
Imagine being so privileged that the news backs you up.
Hey Now!
definitely.... im wondering what the news be like if she from asian decent or black woman...
@@homerhualda7675 theyd go absolutely nuts on everybody backlashing that is for sure
@@homerhualda7675 They would have never been picked.🙄
Wow. Gaslighting and distraction. We had a young teenage skateboard champ this year but for some reason we couldn't let young people compete in Breakdancing? Academia and far left media running cover for one of their own who got her PHD in "cultural studies" and "movement". This show needs to leave the air.
PHD 😥😂 permanent head damage🐖🌬
spot on
not sure what's wrong with the show.
her hubby should be grilled.
her PhD is under scrutiny now, we taxpayers demand an answer as she was probably supported by a scholarship which is paid for by taxpayers.
bowel movement is what her area of research could be better termed.
The Project shamelessly trying to gaslight Australia
The age limit was set by the world governing body and not by any Australian organization.
This isn’t about her, it’s about who chose her.
Both
“Bullying is not ok,” SOFT is what we are
She's not being bullied... or trolled... She's finally facing reality.
Academic & Breaking all enabled...read her stuff. Privileged was her life yet she 'writes' everyone around her is who lives that 'Privileged' life.
Reality has finally kicked in, on the world stage. Her own fault & those around her.
She is being bullied given the change petition makes up outright lies about her
It's kind of funny that the breaking community are defending raygun yet, because of her performance, breaking may never become an Olympic event again.
It shouldn’t have been in the first place.
When you go to Australia be careful of spiders, snakes, sharks and breakdancers.
She cannot breakdance. She is really mocking those who can
The fact that she could barely keep her game face on, showed her guilt.
Kangaroos are seeking legal representation, to serve her with "seize and desist " letter😂
No judgement..👀😂
"Are you good?" is the real question
Ps . By defending her you have aligned yourselves with her. Along with the ' principles ' that got her to that situation. No words.
Raygun´s performance at the Olympics was almost as awful as “Channel 7” TV coverage of the Games, especially the interviews and most of the anchor people.
An anonymous petition is, by definition, not a petition
An embarrassment to all Aussies, just for her to pad the ego and call herself an "Olympian", all at the expense of someone who actually was qualified.
They said it was untrue then they provided no proof it was untrue
Do you have proof that it is true?
@@soupy_cat Seems to be no proof either way.
Australia making its best Olympics ever and she's stealing the show with her crappy performance, sad.
If my tax money was going towards sending that to the Olympics I'd be pissed. What a waste of money. She should be fined for wasting the world's time
When the tv programs go woke. Getting zeros from all olympic judges means nothing when it hurts her feelings. So everlasting sick of woke.
Look up the meaning of 'woke'. It has nothing at all to do with this situation.
So every athlete who was sad about losing at the Olympics is woke? Woke just means anything and everything to you doesn’t it? It’s like “anything I don’t like for any reason.” What a joke.
@sheilaboston7051
The initial meaning of woke is basically human kindness. It has morphed into victim mentality with little wisdom or common sense. When the Emperor has no clothes on, he is naked. Period.
I’m sorry, but she is not a “breakdancer” just like I’m not a footballer. This is an insult to real brakedancers.
And this kids happens when you live in a bubble and no one tells you how BAD you are 😂😂😂
