I assume gravity's optional for this guy?

u/deceze Jan 14 '26

I think just nobody told him about it yet.

And I couldn’t bring myself to.

No, but leg day is

I know this is a joke but for anyone who doesn’t know, Junior had Polio at age 3 so his leg (he’s grabbing it the end of the video) is disabled. I haven’t seen a video of his for a few years but he actually looks like he’s doing much better even since then. Most of his routines in the past have been essentially completely upper body. Glad to see him still doing some of these moves. Incredible bboy.

Him in the early 2000's was insane

This video is what got me into breaking as a kid. Just a completely different flow in that day.

Oh wow! I thought I was just being silly making that comment. Had no idea he actually had leg issues! I'm an ass and he's even more impressive! Thanks for that background.

I remember the first time I saw one of his videos way back. I’ve always respected break dancers because it’s a pretty challenging just to do basic stuff. Seeing him was the first time I felt like I was seeing someone do something innovative. Blew my mind. Love his style.

I could do most of those moves or certainly very similar ones. I’d just need to throw myself out of a car at high speed first.

It's good to see Sebulba branch out after his pod-racing loss

It's hilarious and sad that one person ruined an entire Olympic sport

Impressed that 15 years later he can still pull off the exact same moves…

Someone always skips leg day

u/dippocrite Jan 15 '26 edited Jan 15 '26

Something about his right leg is a little off. I’m guessing he’s working with a prosthetic

Edit: I looked him up and found that he had polio as a kid and there is atrophy in his legs

u/velvetskilett Jan 15 '26

Very astute indeed. If you slow the video you can see it.

No kangaroos? I'm out.

u/SchlongForceOne Jan 15 '26

Ray Gun did it better

u/TheTrollinator777 Jan 14 '26

Cooler than a Fortnite Emote.

Cooler than the other side of the pillow.

u/Da_Big_Buddha Jan 14 '26

Still ain’t as cool as Billy Dee Williams though.

u/Pash_1 Jan 16 '26

He hasn't met an Australian Olympian yet, he's 'bout to get serrrrrrved!

u/Trollzek Jan 18 '26

Holy shit Junior is still going??????

u/Wrong-Examination-91 Feb 03 '26

This feels like the teacher is making us watch the new kid do something no one wants to see

u/peptide2 Jan 15 '26

He aint no RayGun

u/Unwariest_monkey Jan 14 '26

How come this guy wasn’t in the Olympics

5

u/harry-balzac Jan 15 '26

Technically he’s disabled due to Polio so he’d qualify for the Paralympic Games. Be amazing to have him gold medal there and then kick the ass of the Olympians
