Canadian b-boy Phil Wizard (Philip Kim) took gold in the first Olympic men’s breaking tournament Saturday.

“I never thought I’d be here in my life,” the 27-year-old said, wiping away tears. He spent the last few sleepless nights “tossing and turning” because he was “stressed out of my mind.”

“I cried yesterday because I was so scared to do this, and, I’m just happy. I’m just happy,” he said.

Hometown favorite French b-boy Dany Dann (Danis Civil) won silver, and American b-boy Victor (Victor Montalvo) took the bronze after taking out Japanese b-boy Shigekix (Shigeyuki Nakarai). These Olympic medals may be the last for breaking, at least for some time — the dance form is not in the lineup of sports for the Los Angeles 2028 Games.

Articles about breakdancing are not as fun as just watching it: https://youtu.be/FAvZ4Rbk-JM?si=tgM8OJ58R7KsTkcu

I get a “this video is not available” message. Is this a country restriction thing or something?

Are you in Canada? I can watch it

No, I’m in Brazil and I just realized that this is Canada sub lol. It’s weird that I can watch other videos from this channel though.
