this was the Australian competitor for the Breakdancing competition. based on the pic, you don't really need to watch the video to figure out how that turned out... but this poor person will never live it down.

edit 2: couldn't find a good video that wasn't from some weirdo youtuber

if you don't mind using a VPN, Claro Sports streamed most of the games on youtube. They're available in most latam countries. Here is the pose form the pic https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eXWHX5oB2hY&t=7175s (timestamp at 1:59:35)

My partner found one yesterday… but it didn’t have sound and was recorded from TV with a phone.

Bless you. We’ve watched it and she’s not anywhere near as bad as I expected—she did some sick moves! But she’s absolutely not Olympic level… and she faced against teenagers, who are much more nimble than someone twice her age.

The meme pose was funny, and while I don’t disagree, I’m sad she got ZERO points. But… the other gurlz were better.

Edit: I assume this is your channel? If so, I’ve told my partner not to share it.

Yeah it's just odd...compared to someone like you or me (presumably anyway...I suppose you could be a master breakdance but I'm working with odds here lol), she's really good. But compared to advanced level break dancers, she's clearly an amateur. A lot of it is just confusing...it's like she didn't realize she was supposed to be doing tricks in her performance. And the few she tried to execute had somewhat poor technique and didn't land well.

The commentators at one point say that Raygun likes to use improvisation. I'm wondering if she didn't realize she was supposed to actually have a clean routine. It's like she thought they were just there to vibe.

MVP! Great quality and sound, thank you so much!
