The 2024 Paris Olympics are the first Olympic Games to include breakdancing officially known as breaking as an event, and an unlikely competitor has stolen the show.

Rachael Gunn, who breaks using the name Raygun, is a 36-year-old professor at Macquarie University in Sydney, Australia, with a Ph.D. in cultural studies.
