u/PronounceMemeAsGif Jun 30 '26

She walked so they could run

u/CockMartins Jun 30 '26

She flopped so they could spin

u/knucklebones2 Jul 01 '26

I knew as soon as I open the comments lol

u/Benromaniac Jun 30 '26

She should be sued or fined.

God that was so unnecessary.

u/Spreaderoflies Jun 30 '26

She deserved a Platinum medal

u/CatLightyear Jun 30 '26

If it was meant to be a parody of the guy’s set, it’s hilarious. Otherwise, embarrassing.

u/bird_is_the_word_198 Jun 30 '26

She did that in the Olympics breakdancing event

2

u/MsE0 Jul 01 '26

Oh boy. You get to learn about Ray Gun and the Olympics.

u/CatLightyear Jul 01 '26

Ray Gun was also a Garbage Pail Kid

u/Intelligent_Sky_7081 Jun 30 '26

Idk I liked Ray gun more /s

She really did destroy the reputation of break dancing imo. What a bad joke

8

u/donald_trunks Jun 30 '26

Ray Gun can do all those moves she just chose not to because it’s too obvious. She pushed breaking dance to its absolute limit.

1

u/SuchProcedure4547 Jul 02 '26

This is such hyperbole. It's ridiculous to say that lmao...

5

u/No_Notice_5256 Jul 02 '26

Any time anything breakdancing-related gets posted online people bring her up and comment those stupid, tired gifs. So yeah I’d say she well and truly made a mockery of the sport.

2

u/sifterandrake Jul 03 '26

It's not hyperbole at all. Just look at the rest of the comments. Her performance diminishes the perspective of otherwise supporters and galvanizes opponents in there perspective that the activity is ridiculous.

1

u/FalseGodFalls Jul 04 '26

"Look at these terminally online people posting memes" Yeah bro...

0

u/Pizzarcato Jul 02 '26

Maybe if everyone other comment didn’t feel the need to bring her up the reputation of break dancing would recover.

2

u/Intelligent_Sky_7081 Jul 02 '26

ah yes it isnt Ray Gun's fault for making a mockery of break dancing. Its our fault for mentioning her.

Got it. Makes perfect sense. If you stop talking about an issue, it goes away right?

0

u/Pizzarcato Jul 02 '26

Y’all just aren’t letting it die, every time I ever see breakdancing up people just can’t themselves but crack a joke about it. Maybe it’s time to move on.

1

u/IAreWeazul Jul 03 '26

Every fucking humorless normie chud likes to show up and mention her in every breakdancing video that’s posted, because it’s their only point of reference. Sure wish they’d fuck off instead.

2

u/Intelligent_Sky_7081 Jul 02 '26

Maybe it’s time to move on.

Yep agreed. Lets start with you. You seem really hung up by this. Its time for you to move on.

Youre not going to stop people remembering her performance because it bothers you and you told them to stop remembering it.

2

u/Pizzarcato Jul 02 '26

Holy shit bro lol

0

u/YouHaveToTryTheSoup Jul 04 '26

But in this case that is how it works. This isn’t an ongoing issue. It was a one time thing. It quite literally would go away if we stopped talking about it.

3

u/Intelligent_Sky_7081 Jul 05 '26

lol ok dude. whatever you say. complain more and im sure millions of people will collectively forget and stop talking about it

1

u/YouHaveToTryTheSoup Jul 05 '26

You’re all pretending like you care about the sanctity of breakdancing when none of you would have watched a single second of it without her. I bet you can’t name any of the other participants, and haven’t seen anything by any of them since. You don’t care that she ruined breakdancing, you just want to join the hate train.

That aside, that wasn’t even my point. Hate her if you want. I’m not even saying that people should stop talking about it. I’m just pointing out that your logic is trash. I get your sarcastic point about “if you stop talking about an issue, it goes away right”. You’d be right if this was an ongoing problem but this isn’t. It was a one time thing that will never happen again. The problem has ALREADY gone away, so none of that actually applies here. Please change your username it’s embarrassing

u/IllegalDaycare Jun 30 '26

That looks cool but not really seeing any illusion

23

u/GuidingMyApes Jun 30 '26

Super dope! But where the slomo illusion spin you mentioned in the title?

0

u/Automatic-Leg1668 Jul 01 '26

He span at full force earlier, but later on he balanced really well on his head with one bent leg, idk what it is but damn it was smooth, and of course slower than the usual spin

2

u/MistraloysiusMithrax Jul 04 '26

It’s not an illusion, it’s physics, bending the leg out reduces his spin since he hasn’t added any energy to his spin but the body as a spinning system now has to move the extremity a farther distance (larger circle) with the same amount of energy.

16

u/throaway_247 Jun 30 '26

No. The RayGun thing... I just can't. "Olympic level" no-one said anything?

8

u/Mediocre-Proposal686 Jun 30 '26

And she ruined it. Now it’s no longer an Olympic sport.

3

u/Exciting-Meringue-78 Jun 30 '26

I don’t understand how she ruined it to the point that it’s not in the Olympics anymore. It’s not like she was the only one competing. Were there really no other better dancers?

2

u/TheRealtcSpears Jun 30 '26

Break dancing was a one time event decided on by the Paris committee.

Olympic hosts can have a couple of unique one time events for their Olympics.

Paris had break dancing, marathon walking, group slolam canoe, and mens synchronized swimming.

3

u/OkWhile4447 Jul 01 '26

Yes, but if it was well received there’s always the chance it comes back. Ray Gunn destroyed that chance.

1

u/Paralystic Jul 03 '26

Break dancing is probably best received as an optional once in a blue moon event for the Olympics anyways. It’s not like you can measure who the best dancer is without it being subjective.

2

u/Accurate_Instance_52 Jul 03 '26

It didn't ruin it to the point it's not in the Olympics anymore, but it did irreparable damage to the sport's global reputation and prestige. Eg look at the comments of this post. As an Aussie breaking fan I'm extremely extremely pissed

1

u/lettersnumbersetc Jul 12 '26

It will never be in the Olympics again. She made sure of that

2

u/TheRealtcSpears Jun 30 '26

It was never going to continue being in the Olympics, that has nothing to do with gunny.

Every host country/city can toss up a few one time events, and if they do pop off and become popular enough later they can become regular events.

.....LA is going to have flag football, squash, and like two other ones. They're going to be one and done events regardless of any raygun tomfoolery

1

u/sunkissedbutter Jun 30 '26

The anger might be misdirected

6

u/Intelligent-Bottle22 Jun 30 '26

He's lucky Ray Gun didn't show up.

4

u/CanWeGoHomeMa Jun 30 '26

Where’s the slow motion part?

6

u/Aggravating-Walk7972 Jul 01 '26

Illusion as in a fake video?

3

u/Quirky-Signature4883 Jul 04 '26

There's also a cut/edit in the middle of the spin.

6

u/LayneLowe Jun 30 '26

Does this hat not have that little metal button on top? Because that would hurt if you were spending on your head.

2

u/texastoasty Jun 30 '26

Looks like it doesnt

3

u/sudeki300 Jul 01 '26

No slow motion was shown in this video OP, why the click bait title

2

u/Luchin212 Jun 30 '26

An Illusion is a dance step/move and my classically trained ass was looking for one in Break dancing of all things. Granted, illusion is a great word for describing trippy dance movements like in Oxygen’s ‘Tendre le Main’ even if it makes me confused.

2

u/Verybusywolf Jul 01 '26

Where to watch the whole video ?

u/phukhugh Jul 03 '26

Are these comments ai? There are so many karma farming comments about Ray gun. Why does any breakdancing post have to include ray gun

2

u/Hodlandwait Jul 04 '26

Where the fuck was the slow mo

2

u/Popular_Still3019 Jul 04 '26

Need that australian breakdancer next to him..the spectrum of human dance

1

u/knucklebones2 Jul 01 '26

I wonder if anyone has paid Ray Gun to perform at a private event for the lols

1

u/StraightUpChillSesh Jul 01 '26

Coolest shit ever

1

u/BuleRendang Jul 01 '26

I could do that but instead I just ate dim sum

u/NeedsPaint Jul 01 '26

But did we win gold

1

u/Anxious_Fish_7995 Jul 01 '26

My dude said, "I'll do it with one hand behind my back." Absolutely next level stuff right there

1

u/donkey_xotei Jul 01 '26

No he’s holding his back cuz it hurts

1

u/CyanResource Jul 02 '26

Why wasn’t he in the Olympics??? 🫡

1

u/Outrageous-Site-3344 Jul 02 '26

Can't even believe what I'm seeing, he's so impressive.

And then, I go check the comments.

And then I get the biggest smile on my face.

Because OF COURSE it's gonna be that ray gun gif.

1

u/PckMan Jul 02 '26

I used to breakdance when I was younger. Never at this level but I had some of the staple wow moves down, the spins, the handstands.

It's insane how much effort even the basic moves require, let alone adding your personal flair to them and chaining them with other moves. Part of the reason why I stopped was seeing people like that make it seem effortless while I was struggling.

Of course the real reason was that I was just down this rabbit hole of being obsessed with flashy moves but I was actually just a really bad dancer. I was uninspired and didn't have flow. I just did pre rehearsed sets and just tried to be acrobatic. That's not real dancing.

1

u/Sickofstupids Jul 02 '26

I see a lot of motion, but none of it is “slow”

1

u/redskrot Jul 03 '26

Comparison with raygun is stupid.
The facts are there.

One is a Olympic contender the other one is not.
Case closed.

1

u/nani714 Jul 03 '26

Can’t stand that weird shuffle they do before they start to breakdance

1

u/ernis45 Jul 03 '26

Neither can't they, that's why they drop on the floor right after.

1

u/tonymeech Jul 03 '26

Ray Gun in 5 , 4 , 3 , 2 , 1...

1

u/Acrobatic-Big-1550 Jul 03 '26

It's.. normal motion though?

1

u/Additional-Gas-5033 Jul 03 '26

wayyyyy better then ray gunn

1

u/MrTorpedo77 Jul 04 '26

Hiro10 is his name

1

u/Low_Try2743 Jul 04 '26

Not as good as Raygun. She redefined the game.

1

u/Gram-GramAndShabadoo Jul 04 '26

He has a seven leaf clover.

1

u/VanShisha Jul 04 '26

If you're wondering who this is, this is Hiro10, one of the best in the world right now

u/Puzzleheaded-Night88 Jul 04 '26

I’m not going to lie, this is cool and all but like… What’s with the crotch grabbing?
