Australian Breakdancer Goes Viral For Cringeworthy Performance

Olympic Breakdancing has its first viral star - though probably not the one the sport would prefer. Australian Rachael Gunn - aka 'B-Girl Raygun' -  took the internet by storm with her cringeworthy moves in the women's breaking qualifiers on Friday. The 36-year-old Gunn was swept out of the group phase without earning a single vote - sometimes competing against women less than half her age. But there's more than meets the eye when it comes to Gunn - or should we say DOCTOR Rachael Gunn, a university professor who wrote her PhD thesis on breaking culture. What did you think of Olympic Breaking?  Should the sport return for the 2028 Olympics in L.A.?
