Charles reenactment feels like when your little cousin tells you "watch this" and does some silly shit but thats literally how the actually routine was
People forget she actually said that she did zero training prior to this. She wasn't taking this seriously, she wasn't deserving of it and she was definitely nowhere near Olympic level. Her bs about having more "musicality" and "creativity" compared to others that "specialize" in power moves is mind boggling. Uprock, downrock, power moves and freezes are NECESSARY for all break dancers. There's no breakdancing without these. You cannot be a breakdancer if you fail at any of these. It's like a cardiologist that only specializes in certain heart conditions, when your profession requires you to know EVERYTHING there is to know about the heart and its functions.
worst part about this is that many people have now seen raygun but have not seen how crazy, legit, athletic, and creative the actual serious competitors were
oesn't mater. This is an art, not an athletic sport. Should not be in the Olympics. I understand the top of the top break-dancers are well versed in the craft, but its an art form that is much harder to score compared to javelin throw, "still rings", or straight up rugby or Basketball. It is very hard to do, but not an international sport that should be in the Olympics which is why it's getting clowned on. Anthony Ammirati is a good example of a serious sport that got memed aggressively during this Olympics but his sport is still taken seriously.
@@dillonhedgpeth9974 I think it can be considered athletic because you need strength, endurance, consistency and many other things just like any other sport. Furthermore, its roots come from athletes and gymnasts who could not pay a workout in the gym and they had to do it on the street.
@@dillonhedgpeth9974 It's hard to score, but you can make the same argument for gymnastics or its other variations. You fail to recognize that breaking has been judged for decades. Judging art is a much bigger intellectual endevour than other activities that require simple scoring so the confusion is warranted. Lets use common sense, some pieces of art are better than others. What happens when the your piece is a response to an opponent and it is a lot better in certain criteria. You judge. Breaking is highly competitive, and has been judged for decades. You make it sound like the Olympics invented all this. Breaking thrives with or without the olympics, there are bigger competitions and the talent pool has grown worldwide. Also SHE got memed, the winners were well received by their countries. Some people hate because its easier to remain ignorant than to learn something that breaks off their preconceived ideas of what is a sport and what is athletic. But Breaking continues to grow and remain strong.
The good part is i didnt even know breakdancing was on the olympics and i may check out how some of the masters at their craft perform for a mainstream audience
@Dario__ I actually checked out the gold medal match - Phil Wizard (Canada) vs Dany Dann (France) - after watching this video and it was *amazing*. I really know nothing about breakdancing at all, but these performances were captivating to watch and displayed powerful athleticism. Also, the guys showed a lot of respect for each other. It was really wholesome in that way. I hope that breakdancing remains in the Olympics.
Given the disaster of a performance she gave, the leftist Aus government is unwilling to bribe the Olympics committee again for including that event. That's why there won't be breakdancing in future Olympic games.
Dang I remember watching your videos way back when you were just a faceless gamer with a monotone voice, so cool to see how much you’ve changed over the years. Just as entertaining since back then, love it
you can see that he's not even trying on the demonstration, if others would see him truly breakdance and release his inner demons, they would lose all motivation to keep going. What a humble man
That's why those cowards were too afraid to cast him as Katniss and had to give him a supporting role in Mockingjay. The world was not ready for him to break it down on the big screen.
Can we all take a moment to show our appreciation for the Olympics for NOT sharing content so our favourite youtuber is forced to reenact and make this beauty of a video! Thank you, IOC!
She created the Australian committee to select a break dancer that would represent Australia and then got her husband to be one of the judges in her Olympic qualification match. Figures that she ended up being the winner 🙄. It was disrespectful to break dancing itself for her to even compete. It would be like a country sending someone to compete in the butterfly(swimming) who doesn’t really know how to swim and they end up doggy paddling across just to say they competed in the Olympic’s.
To examples of Aussie luck. To pull a “Steven Bradbury”: come from dead last to win a gold medal because everyone else fell over. To pull a “Rachel Gunn”: to land a dream job that you are clearly not qualified for.
The fact there’s so many actual people know how to breakdance either didn’t want to go weren’t invited or didn’t know how to compete because there’s like a million videos of people that are good
Well you don’t get paid at the Olympics, it’s just for the the fame. That’s why you don’t see world class football players at the Olympics even if they’re better at the game then the ones attending the Olympics.
@@Enzoxvx actually for football specifically it’s because there’s a rule restricting players over 23 to compete, so it doesn’t clash with the fifa world cup
If anyone couldn't watch, there are like 20 judges and your color flashes across the screen if they vote for you. Usually it's like a checkerboard of blue and red votes. For her, the entire screen was a line of red (other girl's color) and then with this humiliating screen of red she had to do another round (she didn't gaf). Then switches opponents, all red. Third opponent, all red.
Good. It looked like a middle aged person saw one break dancing video and then tried to imitate it. That's fine for joking around but not the Olympics.
Never seen an olympic performance so unbearable to watch. It's like somebodies geriatric Aunt when she finds a tik-tok dance and tries to explain it to the kids by showing a few moves.
As an Australian, I think we deserve a sincere apology from whoever let her compete. Edit: I bet even I could have done better, and scored higher. Just sitting there and doing nothing would have gotten the same result, and on top of that, you don't embarrass the crap out of us aussies. 2nd edit: I'd like to apologies on behalf of all of us clueless australians, who didn't predict the future and stop her from entering.
@@tomato9349 I would have done better than her, and I would have just sat on the ground, and yet the scores would still be the same, and on top of that, I wouldn't embarrass the entire country!
As an Australian i have no idea what to think about this. I don't even care about the Olympics. If i was her i would never be able to leave my house ever again.
I'm sorry that your country got cheated in all this. The reason that she was even able to compete is because she rigged the Australian qualifiers. RayGun runs the company that was tasked with locating breakdancing talent, and headed up the committee. Then she got her husband (also on the committee) in as one of the judges for the qualifiers, as well as members from the (already salty) Ballroom Dancer's association to judge, all so she could be their choice. Anyone who could have been an actual contender wasn't permitted to try out for the qualifiers. She wanted in so she could deliberately fail for her thesis {Gender Discrimination in Sports}, and the BDA wanted her in out of spite, knowing that she would fail, all because essentially Ballroom Dancing was replaced at the Olympics by Breakdancing.
The fact that she was fully aware that she is nowhere near the same level as the rest of the competition yet she did not feel ashamed performing infront of the world clearly shows her ego is bigger than Mt.Everest. She does not feel shame.
@@arandomperson920This is being investigated and some has been debunked. I am not defending her but I am also begging you to research everything you see on the internet before you trust it completely. There is a LOT of misinformation on the internet about what the hell happened and how this woman qualified.
I managed to watch the performance of some finalists and for some reasons there was still quite a lot of cringe emanating from it. I'm not too sure exactly why but especially the commentators acting a bit guetto... I don't know man, I think the big blunt street vibes of breakdancing doesn't fit very well with the Olympics.
I'm Australian too, but I'm more surprised it's an Olympic event. Given the saturation of Olympics coverage, I haven't watched any of it since it's all over the news and I find it annoying, so all I know of what's going on is from incidental CZcams recommendations. To me it's more like interpretive dance than a sport.
Isn’t it just sad though for actual serious breakdancing women from Australia or even NZ who moved there. I know a few dancers who would have done much better
Not true, during the intro, Blueys dad (the best one on the show) DOES hit the Sprinkler (which Charlie says zhe does in her routine 😂 Blueys dad also hits the lawnmower right at the start of the song too.
As an Australian that watched the idol raygun. Your rendition was respectful and quintessential with purpose. A complete and full emulation of the choreograph that she originally did. Thank you for your breakdown as an artist that the mainstream failed to represent
She created the Australian committee to select a break dancer that would represent Australia… AND THEN got her husband to be one of the judges in her Olympic qualification match. Figures that she ended up being the winner 🙄. She stole an opportunity from someone far more deserving only to make herself look like the fraud she is.

It's like a cardiologist that only specializes in certain heart conditions, when your profession requires you to know EVERYTHING there is to know about the heart and its functions.
Charlie is like my chronically online guru, keeping me up to date with all useless nonsense that I lose by having a real life

yes the Olympics the event for the chronically online. one of the most watched sporting events in the world
"i'm too old"
Charlie, Raygun is 36, don't let your dreams be dreams
Underrated comment. 😂😊
Well, it's a clear indicator that age is a factor.
@l-ixir yeah, but they didn't compete in the qualifiers and won... She did... Somehow
I'm shocked. The Olympics did not provide medical care for competitors. Nobody helped her when she had a stroke.
Okay, this genuinely made me laugh. Thank you.
Sadly not a stroke... But woke... 😢
I feel sick with embarrassment and i'm not even Australian
I want his demonstration isolated and his verbal explanation silenced and replaced by shuffling and thumps to make him look insane
Plz internet make this happen 🙏
Internet don't let us down
I approve of this.
I want him to talk about Mr Beast and the end of his bromance
Also make it 2x speed, its even better
The commentators trying to be nice…”she’s introduced some…interesting moves to the competition..” and I started scream laughing
She did a freeze in the most awkward clumsy pose and they were like "Ohhhhhh!!!!" Just trying to hype her up 😭
one of them chuckled when a slow mo played 😭
charlie dropping a headstand was NOT on my 2024 bingo card
i’m so glad he opted into demonstrating what he did rather than show any clips of it i feel like i got more out of that than the real thing
worst part about this is that many people have now seen raygun but have not seen how crazy, legit, athletic, and creative the actual serious competitors were
oesn't mater. This is an art, not an athletic sport. Should not be in the Olympics. I understand the top of the top break-dancers are well versed in the craft, but its an art form that is much harder to score compared to javelin throw, "still rings", or straight up rugby or Basketball. It is very hard to do, but not an international sport that should be in the Olympics which is why it's getting clowned on. Anthony Ammirati is a good example of a serious sport that got memed aggressively during this Olympics but his sport is still taken seriously.
@@dillonhedgpeth9974 I think it can be considered athletic because you need strength, endurance, consistency and many other things just like any other sport. Furthermore, its roots come from athletes and gymnasts who could not pay a workout in the gym and they had to do it on the street.
@@dillonhedgpeth9974 It's hard to score, but you can make the same argument for gymnastics or its other variations. You fail to recognize that breaking has been judged for decades. Judging art is a much bigger intellectual endevour than other activities that require simple scoring so the confusion is warranted. Lets use common sense, some pieces of art are better than others. What happens when the your piece is a response to an opponent and it is a lot better in certain criteria. You judge. Breaking is highly competitive, and has been judged for decades. You make it sound like the Olympics invented all this. Breaking thrives with or without the olympics, there are bigger competitions and the talent pool has grown worldwide. Also SHE got memed, the winners were well received by their countries. Some people hate because its easier to remain ignorant than to learn something that breaks off their preconceived ideas of what is a sport and what is athletic. But Breaking continues to grow and remain strong.
The good part is i didnt even know breakdancing was on the olympics and i may check out how some of the masters at their craft perform for a mainstream audience
@Dario__ I actually checked out the gold medal match - Phil Wizard (Canada) vs Dany Dann (France) - after watching this video and it was *amazing*. I really know nothing about breakdancing at all, but these performances were captivating to watch and displayed powerful athleticism.
Also, the guys showed a lot of respect for each other. It was really wholesome in that way.
I hope that breakdancing remains in the Olympics.
This is deeper than real journalism.

As an Aussie and hearing this shocked me, SHE HAS A PHD IN BREAKDANCING ??
Yeah! Did you read her paper? Her routine almost makes you think she did this on purpose to ensure it wouldn’t come back next Olympics.
yeah she’s a PhD… a pretty horrible dancer!!!
She is a Professor in Cultural Studies and Creative Industries but yes her PhD was in Breaking
@@cannedroob6237 To be fair she wasn't the only person to score Zero across the board
Hers is going to be remembered however
Given the disaster of a performance she gave, the leftist Aus government is unwilling to bribe the Olympics committee again for including that event. That's why there won't be breakdancing in future Olympic games.

Dang I remember watching your videos way back when you were just a faceless gamer with a monotone voice, so cool to see how much you’ve changed over the years. Just as entertaining since back then, love it
The fact that you practiced her routine for just an hour and did almost as good a job ensures she is absolutely not an Olympian.
you can see that he's not even trying on the demonstration, if others would see him truly breakdance and release his inner demons, they would lose all motivation to keep going. What a humble man
My panties were on the floor and it was only 1% of his true power.
That's why those cowards were too afraid to cast him as Katniss and had to give him a supporting role in Mockingjay. The world was not ready for him to break it down on the big screen.
It's more of a slow demonstration
She's avant-garde, she's so ahead of her time that the judges couldn't comprehend it.

Raygun: These edibles ain't sh*t. 30 minutes later: breakdances.
The difference between the gold medal match and this routine is unreal, the finals is so much more fun to watch
The difference between the men's and women's finals is about as big as the difference between the women's finals and Railgun's routine.
She created the Australian committee to select a break dancer that would represent Australia and then got her husband to be one of the judges in her Olympic qualification match. Figures that she ended up being the winner 🙄.
It was disrespectful to break dancing itself for her to even compete. It would be like a country sending someone to compete in the butterfly(swimming) who doesn’t really know how to swim and they end up doggy paddling across just to say they competed in the Olympic’s.
"lets see the world's best breakdancers!"

Well you don’t get paid at the Olympics, it’s just for the the fame. That’s why you don’t see world class football players at the Olympics even if they’re better at the game then the ones attending the Olympics.
@@Enzoxvx actually for football specifically it’s because there’s a rule restricting players over 23 to compete, so it doesn’t clash with the fifa world cup
@@Enzoxvx it very much depends on the country, but most places give out really great prizes for medalists, some even give lifelong stipends
Depends on the country, though. Some give some real life-changing rewards to medal winners.
honestly a lot of them, especially in the US, probably wouldn't qualify because of the drug tests
This was truly cinematic, thank you.
If anyone couldn't watch, there are like 20 judges and your color flashes across the screen if they vote for you. Usually it's like a checkerboard of blue and red votes. For her, the entire screen was a line of red (other girl's color) and then with this humiliating screen of red she had to do another round (she didn't gaf). Then switches opponents, all red. Third opponent, all red.
Good. It looked like a middle aged person saw one break dancing video and then tried to imitate it. That's fine for joking around but not the Olympics.
Never seen an olympic performance so unbearable to watch. It's like somebodies geriatric Aunt when she finds a tik-tok dance and tries to explain it to the kids by showing a few moves.

what an immaculate replication by charlie to be able to witness this for free
4:00 Charlie turned into the girl from the ring

I appreciate you demoing the whole routine lmao
As an Australian, I think we deserve a sincere apology from whoever let her compete.
Edit: I bet even I could have done better, and scored higher. Just sitting there and doing nothing would have gotten the same result, and on top of that, you don't embarrass the crap out of us aussies.
2nd edit: I'd like to apologies on behalf of all of us clueless australians, who didn't predict the future and stop her from entering.
I bet there's like actually good breakdancers down under that feel insulted that she was picked to represent the whole nation
ive seen better performances by buskers on the streets of melbourne, how she was able to compete is absolutely mind boggling

As an Australian i have no idea what to think about this. I don't even care about the Olympics. If i was her i would never be able to leave my house ever again.
I'm sorry that your country got cheated in all this. The reason that she was even able to compete is because she rigged the Australian qualifiers. RayGun runs the company that was tasked with locating breakdancing talent, and headed up the committee. Then she got her husband (also on the committee) in as one of the judges for the qualifiers, as well as members from the (already salty) Ballroom Dancer's association to judge, all so she could be their choice.
Anyone who could have been an actual contender wasn't permitted to try out for the qualifiers. She wanted in so she could deliberately fail for her thesis {Gender Discrimination in Sports}, and the BDA wanted her in out of spite, knowing that she would fail, all because essentially Ballroom Dancing was replaced at the Olympics by Breakdancing.
The fact that she was fully aware that she is nowhere near the same level as the rest of the competition yet she did not feel ashamed performing infront of the world clearly shows her ego is bigger than Mt.Everest. She does not feel shame.
@@GaogaoSenpaisaurus i didn't know that.
@@arandomperson920This is being investigated and some has been debunked.

@@Midg-td3ty Exactly the attitude she shows makes all the criticism she received more than deserved.

As an Australian myself I received second hand embarrassment from this performance
I managed to watch the performance of some finalists and for some reasons there was still quite a lot of cringe emanating from it. I'm not too sure exactly why but especially the commentators acting a bit guetto... I don't know man, I think the big blunt street vibes of breakdancing doesn't fit very well with the Olympics.
I'm Australian too, but I'm more surprised it's an Olympic event. Given the saturation of Olympics coverage, I haven't watched any of it since it's all over the news and I find it annoying, so all I know of what's going on is from incidental CZcams recommendations. To me it's more like interpretive dance than a sport.
We are voting to put her in the boxing. Few moves she had may help fighting the abusers i mean professional xy female boxers
As an Aussie I genuinely couldn't be more proud. We're the unserious country, keep it that way.

Isn’t it just sad though for actual serious breakdancing women from Australia or even NZ who moved there. I know a few dancers who would have done much better
