This. Breakdancing is an incredibly difficult sport where people are literally throwing themselves around and balancing on the most precarious body parts. True breakdancers have incredibly strength and immaculate precision, and yet Raygun had none of that. She did a routine any able-bodied person can do save for a few parts, where as no able-bodied person should be able to do breakdancing without serious training.
It sucks because people have been ignoring the other breakdancers who performed great, and are saying that breakdancing will be removed as an Olympic sport because of her.
There’s no comparison.
The marathon runner put in 100% of every bit of her soul into completing that run for herself and her country.
The “breaker” seemed to have put as minimal effort into her routines as possible. I’m embarrassed for her and the people she was representing.
