In fairness there aren't a lot of breakdancers in Oceania and on top of that there isn't a lot of talent in the region. It's sort of like being surprised that the Australian Ice Hockey team can't qualify for the Olympics.
It's not DEI. It's Academic Postmodernism. She cannot compete with men or women. It's not very inclusive & Colonial & Patriarchal.... So she rejects Breakdancing as an Art form.

Rachel has Dunning Kruger Effect!! The Dunning-Kruger Effect is a psychological phenomenon in which people with low ability fail to recognize their own incompetence and overestimate their skills. OK, that explains her lack of self awareness, but how about all the other people in the Breaking community who have watched her over the years?? Almost 20 yrs!! Are we really at a point now where everybody is so woke, and afraid of hurting someones feelings, that nobody in the Breaking community in Australia in 20 yrs has ever said to Rachel "Hey, you're crap!!" No judge has ever given her the scores she deserved?? How has Rachel been validated in her efforts so far, to give her the impression that she actually has talent?? It's OK to support someone "having a go" but it's not Ok to support their delusion that they have talent. I find this whole situation bizarre, and it baffles me how it got this far?? Where a person with zero talent can somehow represent her country at the Olympic games!!
I saw a clip of her husband "breakdance" as well and he's her "coach." He was in the same neighborhood of awful. I think they reinforced each other's delusions of excellence.
*Rachel Gunn is so beautiful. She has trolled her way into the world's hearts, the 'Roo will now be a mainstay in **_Breaking_** for decades to come and the likelihood of being in the Olympics again has tripled.*
@@1nvisible1She didn’t troll her way anywhere, she got here cause she and her husband own the company that ran the competition for breakdancing in Australia for the Olympics
Yes an entire University that has been around for over half a century needs to be cancelled over someone who won the Oceania breakdancing awards. I think this whole episode says more about how little talent Australia has in breakdancing than it'll ever say about her. And look, where's the outrage when the Australian Ice Hockey team doesn't perform at the Winter Olympics? Or what about when the Australian Curling team can't even qualify for the Olympics? Not every country is great at every sport. And I say this as a Canadian, yes Canada did rank number 2 in the Summer Olympics this year in terms of medals but that's only if we count countries in the Americas region.

no she knew what she was doing. all the wokies will rally to her, she will face no repercussions for rigging the qualifications, and she will keep raking in tax payer money and more
How is easy. The Olympic Committee said to the Olympic Committee Australia “ Breaking is an event hold some event. Select someone.” Australian Committee said “ what do we know about Breaking”. They off loaded to Australian Ballroom Dancing they said “ what do we know about Breaking” and they gave it to Rayguns husband’s company to organise trials and the rest is history.
I dont know if anybody from Sky actually reads these comments but maybe you guys can look into the rumour that the Olympic committee had no experience with breakdancing so they farmed out the holding of qualifying rounds to dance organizations in each country to hold the finals for Olympic selection. in Australia the organization the Olympic committee delegated to also had no experience outside of ballroom dancing so they then reached out to an "official" break dancing group which turns out to be run by Rachel Gunn and her husband who then managed the Olympic qualifier and people were allowed to compete by invitation only. effectively this means Raygun stacked the odds in her favour by being in charge of the selection. its something Brett Cooper pointed out in her video on this and if its true this whole thing gets even stinkier.
There are people significantly older than she is, who breakdance FAR better than she does. It's not her age, but rather her lack of talent. Do better, Australia (we know you can do so).

Hannah Berrellit says: "She has written about how including breakdance in the Olympics changes it from a practice within an alternative subculture, to a hegemonic one that incorporates the dance into what she sees as aAustralia's settler colonialist project." Brett: "So Rachel is one of the reasons Breakdancing was put in the Olympics. She advocated for it. She got Australia to be involved. She started the whole thing and then _somehow_ managed to get them to send her. This is literally like a personal pet project of hers." Brett: "I figured out why she won [the Australian trials]. They [the Olympics] don't know anything about breakdancing. They offloaded the qualification management to a different dance organization, but that dance organization oversees ballroom dancing. They *also* don't know anything about breakdancing, so they outsourced it to local entities in different countries to host the qualified competitions, etc. "The organization that it was outsourced to in Australia *is run by Rachel Gunn and her husband* (who is her breakdancing coach) so in these competitions only like 10-15 women show up. Obviously Rachel wins all of them because she and her husband organize the entire damn thing. That is how she got to the Olympics. "I did someresearch because I wanted to find that performance thinking again, you know, maybe the pressure got to her; maybe we shouldn't be attackign her; maybe she just had an off day..but no, that's literally how she dances [video clip attached]. "That's not breakdancing. This literally looks more like a rodeo clowns performance than it does breakdancing. And somehow she won. She won the entire thing. Is this rigged? I genuinely do not know what is going on. "The other shocking thing that we need to note is that she didn't just win that competition. She has consistently been winning in Australia for the last 5-10 years since she first became interested in breakdancing and cultural movement. Like, how, how is there no one else? Is everyone in Australia just absolutely terrible at breakdancing? "Any person no matter your race can breakdance and do it well. Rachel is just not one of them. "I think that she just, you know, maybe lacks talent and nobody has ever told her."
Ah yes, the break dancing colonial project, Arthur Phillip, first thing he did when we got on shore stated "for King and country, we shall now determine who is the flyest, the dopest, in order to claim this land".
“You can fool some of the people all of the time, and all of the people some of the time, but you can not fool all of the people all of the time.' In Rayguns case she didnt fool anyone a nytime
And she has been breaking for 15 yrs. The people who indulged her are as delusional. It was only on the world stage where she had a dose of reality. This kind of reminds me of the story of The Emperor’s New Clothes.
She deliberately made a mockery of the 'sport', other serious competitors and our country. It should not have been allowed to happen. She can't possibly think that she's a good break dancer. I don't find it funny at all. What an embarrassment 🤦
If the government really insists on funding higher education, please limit it to STEM. Make students pay 100% the cost of anything else. That should pretty well solve this issue of PhDs for "cultural movement".
I wager Credits to Navy Beans, that NO-ONE. in authority at the University, not ONE person schlisticaly "above" or "chain of command" ABOVE, Rachael Gunn, has EVER read that paper!
Any reason would have been better than sending her on a free holiday to embarrass every australian. Maybe sending her to break dancing lessons lol, she might have scored 1 point at least. Lol
in her thesis she, a white woman outsider, says breaking needs to change and someone needs to 'transgress' and basically she's the person to change the immoral stuff in breaking. she was mocking breaking, and said as much in her PHD thesis.
The officials who allowed her selection have a lot to answer for... this is a worldwide embarrassment. An insult to the many many brilliant hard working break dancers in Australia.
Recruted for woke and playing a system instead of being the best in the country at her chosen sport. Pathetic and wrong. The people who gave her a position on the olympic team are a disgrace.
This is a living example of the Left Wing university education system failings! She has embarrassed herself and Australia on the international stage! More concerning this person actually teaches the future generations of Australians! God help you!
Exactly. She could have qualified in a PhD majoring in fraud. Teaching teenagers how to breakdance but doesn't know herself is like someone with a PhD in mathematics but starts the lesson with 1+1 = 13. Everything she teaches is already wrong.
Its like watching a movie, where the actor can't transition between moves in a fight scene, so they have to film each separately and edit the clips together, and they didn't edit it very well. Like Jamie Fox in the club in Miami Vice. Or they want to put the actors face in the middle of what should be an uncut stunt double sequence, like Scarlett Johannsen in Iron Man 3. It would have been a lot cheaper and more effective to find some 12 year old dancing on a street corner and ask if they'd like a free trip to Paris.
Everyone thinks they are "mocking" RayGun when in fact its her trolling the world, she even said something in her papers about the QUEERING of break dancing. This was nothing but a social experiment on the world that no doubt in time she will do papers about. We need to stop funding this sort of crap for Universities
No. And in doing so she trolled her own career permanently. No one will take her seriously ever. Mocked for the rest of her life, yeah that makes sense.
@@timo386 Just have a look at her career. Her entire research career consists of complete horseshit, yet she seems to be doing fine. All of her publications are just utter word salad with no substance; all related to breakdancing.
Classic case of "those who can, do; those who can't, teach". She may be "educated" but but wasn't smart enough to realize she didn't have the physical skill. She must live in a delusion to believe she did well and didn't become the laughingstock of the Olympics.
She’s played the Australian taxpayer for a fool.
In fairness, it was the government who sponsored some of it and we aren't sure about that. Maybe she got funding from sponsors.

Brett: "So Rachel is one of the reasons Breakdancing was put in the Olympics. She advocated for it. She got Australia to be involved. She started the whole thing and then _somehow_ managed to get them to send her. This is literally like a personal pet project of hers."
Brett: "I figured out why she won [the Australian trials]. They [the Olympics] don't know anything about breakdancing. They offloaded the qualification management to a different dance organization, but that dance organization oversees ballroom dancing. They *also* don't know anything about breakdancing, so they outsourced it to local entities in different countries to host the qualified competitions, etc.
"The organization that it was outsourced to in Australia *is run by Rachel Gunn and her husband* (who is her breakdancing coach) so in these competitions only like 10-15 women show up. Obviously Rachel wins all of them because she and her husband organize the entire damn thing. That is how she got to the Olympics.
"I did someresearch because I wanted to find that performance thinking again, you know, maybe the pressure got to her; maybe we shouldn't be attackign her; maybe she just had an off day..but no, that's literally how she dances [video clip attached].
"That's not breakdancing. This literally looks more like a rodeo clowns performance than it does breakdancing. And somehow she won. She won the entire thing. Is this rigged? I genuinely do not know what is going on.
"The other shocking thing that we need to note is that she didn't just win that competition. She has consistently been winning in Australia for the last 5-10 years since she first became interested in breakdancing and cultural movement. Like, how, how is there no one else? Is everyone in Australia just absolutely terrible at breakdancing?
"Any person no matter your race can breakdance and do it well. Rachel is just not one of them.
"I think that she just, you know, maybe lacks talent and nobody has ever told her."
very interesting this apalling travesty should be broadcast all over the news & published front page in all the newspapers for months
Ah yes, the break dancing colonial project, Arthur Phillip, first thing he did when we got on shore stated "for King and country, we shall now determine who is the flyest, the dopest, in order to claim this land".
And no, even back in the 90s, Australian b boys were known as the best in the world, especially for 'power moves'.
Who’s Brett?
@@blaxwlablaxvla3241 Oops, sorry. Brett Cooper: th-cam.com/video/lKIN4jHUcko/w-d-xo.html
rather than a green and gold jacket she should have a paid stay with a straight jacket
“You can fool some of the people all of the time, and all of the people some of the time, but you can not fool all of the people all of the time.' In Rayguns case she didnt fool anyone a nytime
unfortunately she did as received funding to go
It looked more like a cross between the Monster Mash and Monty Pythons Ministry of Silly Walks.
Spot on !!!!!
All the news articles are criticizing her critics and calling them sexist!! Her routine sucked, period.
She was wack, as it were, her vadge had nothing to do with it.
And she has been breaking for 15 yrs. The people who indulged her are as delusional. It was only on the world stage where she had a dose of reality. This kind of reminds me of the story of The Emperor’s New Clothes.
When did hip hop become so kind? Would have been laughed off the stage back in the day.
Told my wife the same thing. There’s no way this isn’t a “punk” on the whole system.
Perfect social experiment for her "Thesis".. On top of riding the "No such thing as bad publicity" train.
She deliberately made a mockery of the 'sport', other serious competitors and our country. It should not have been allowed to happen. She can't possibly think that she's a good break dancer. I don't find it funny at all. What an embarrassment 🤦
she thinks she's wonderful
n a r c I c is t
If the government really insists on funding higher education, please limit it to STEM. Make students pay 100% the cost of anything else. That should pretty well solve this issue of PhDs for "cultural movement".
She is a disgrace. She has embarrassed Australia.
Pls do a report on how she got qualified; I'm very sure it will be a excellent story
This is the kind of deep dive investigation we used to see, and I miss it. It’s a great idea.
I wager Credits to Navy Beans, that NO-ONE. in authority at the University, not ONE person schlisticaly "above" or "chain of command" ABOVE, Rachael Gunn, has EVER read that paper!
She should pay back all the taxpayers $'s shes wasted going to the olympics, 1000 better things we could have used the money for. What a joke.
Any reason would have been better than sending her on a free holiday to embarrass every australian. Maybe sending her to break dancing lessons lol, she might have scored 1 point at least. Lol
Breakdancing training 😂@@OldBismarck
when on earth does a PHD in 'breaking' mean anything more than the actual dancing in HIP HOP CULTURE?
Hip hop doesn't belong in universities hey. It's kinda antithetical.
SEIZURES, not breakdance
Seizures still have gusto and jolt.
If she is SO educated? Why the cultural appropriation?
in her thesis she, a white woman outsider, says breaking needs to change and someone needs to 'transgress' and basically she's the person to change the immoral stuff in breaking. she was mocking breaking, and said as much in her PHD thesis.
There are a lot of people that should explain themself, maybe even in the court.
those sorts are never culpable
If you saw the opening you'd know why she qualified
Why is this in the Olympics to begin with?
It does take an incredible amount of skill and athleticism to become even somewhat competent, but you arent wrong, hip hop isn't for the Olympics.
@@falconmclenny7284 Agreed.
yeah...a perfect snapshot of the rubbish dump of woke Australia...
The officials who allowed her selection have a lot to answer for... this is a worldwide embarrassment. An insult to the many many brilliant hard working break dancers in Australia.
Hard working break dancers - that's a contradiction in terms.
@@bradwilliams1691 ha maybe. But seriously some of the real dancers do work hard at their sport and it shows in their athleticism.
@@bradwilliams1691ok brad, let's see you do it. Since it's obviously so easy & zero effort at all.
You mean her husband and herself? Because they are apparently the officials that advertised, adjudicated and selected her..
@@kpops168 I must admit that the athleticism of break dancers is off the charts.
When Autism meets break dancing…
Autism doesn't make you a fricken idiot, idiot.
That's an insult to Autism
@@nicholasgreen6913
I should apologise to those with autism for insulting them.
@@jribeye1818Thank you for the apology. My autistic son can dance better than her.
Even with your apology, that was a stupid comment; I hope next time you make a better decision.
She was an example of a DEI contestant. There will be more. Next will be a 300 lb floor gymnast.
Could this lady be charged with misappropriating government funds? 🤔
The M in MU stands for Marx not Macquarie
Recruted for woke and playing a system instead of being the best in the country at her chosen sport. Pathetic and wrong. The people who gave her a position on the olympic team are a disgrace.
This is a living example of the Left Wing university education system failings! She has embarrassed herself and Australia on the international stage! More concerning this person actually teaches the future generations of Australians! God help you!
Mmmm...watch Brett Cooper's video on Raygun...you'll find out exactly how she got on the Olympic team.
Exactly. She could have qualified in a PhD majoring in fraud. Teaching teenagers how to breakdance but doesn't know herself is like someone with a PhD in mathematics but starts the lesson with 1+1 = 13. Everything she teaches is already wrong.
Just disgusting. This is the benchmark they want set for our kids
Imagine her dance as a metaphor for the economy as managed by the far left.
Perfect comment 😊
Its like watching a movie, where the actor can't transition between moves in a fight scene, so they have to film each separately and edit the clips together, and they didn't edit it very well. Like Jamie Fox in the club in Miami Vice.
Or they want to put the actors face in the middle of what should be an uncut stunt double sequence, like Scarlett Johannsen in Iron Man 3.
It would have been a lot cheaper and more effective to find some 12 year old dancing on a street corner and ask if they'd like a free trip to Paris.
Her and her husband organized the qualifier that she “won” in order to secure her spot. Let that sink in.
No one will ever forget her… Her performance was seen more then the person that won the gold.
Exactly. Look at Uks Eddie the Eagle. There’ll be a movie made about her 🇦🇺😂
*than
@@ma3stro681 thank you
Wouldn't you rather not be remembered, than to be remembered as a joke?
And they will remember what an embarrassment she is.
She’ll appear in next year’s superbowl commercial unfortunately.
It wasn't a kangaroo it was an emu, Australia's mortal enemy. She was mocking the white man's inability to eradicate the flightless bird
That’s what happens when you give kids participation trophies.
Everyone thinks they are "mocking" RayGun when in fact its her trolling the world, she even said something in her papers about the QUEERING of break dancing. This was nothing but a social experiment on the world that no doubt in time she will do papers about.
We need to stop funding this sort of crap for Universities
100% agree
Its just woke being woke.
No. And in doing so she trolled her own career permanently. No one will take her seriously ever. Mocked for the rest of her life, yeah that makes sense.
@@timo386 Just have a look at her career. Her entire research career consists of complete horseshit, yet she seems to be doing fine. All of her publications are just utter word salad with no substance; all related to breakdancing.
Rita.. thank you for keeping this alive!
If she was tying it to SKELETAL structures it would make more sense.
She said her boyfriend was a breaker and that's why she got into it. That tells you a lot right there.
he's just as lousy
This does not belong in the Olympics !
Get a PHD Macquarie University means nothing
pathetic hopeless dancer
I don't know if you could find a more classic case of Dunning Kruger Syndrome if you went hunting for it.
Raygun made it possible for any Tom, Dick and Harry to become an Olympian. Thanks so much Raygun.
An absolute embarrassment to us. There are better female break dancers in Australia.
Classic case of "those who can, do; those who can't, teach". She may be "educated" but but wasn't smart enough to realize she didn't have the physical skill. She must live in a delusion to believe she did well and didn't become the laughingstock of the Olympics.
Not educated but a good actress who has fooled everyone.
I have epilepsy,and could have done a much better job at the Olympics,just by simply having a fit at the appropriate time..
Im so embarassed and im not even aussie
