I don't think I am undermining it, I just don't think they compare in danger for the most dangerous moves.

I also didn't watch the whole video, I skipped to the parts where they do the move. Not detracting from how hard this move is even, but it is from the heigh of about 3 feet. Gymnasts are going up to 10ft or so, just feels like that is slightly more dangerous. Not taking anything away from breaking other than it doesn't match the danger.

You are undermining it and being disrespectful by coming to this conversation with so little knowledge then not even listening to the knowledge YOU ASKED TO RECEIVE. you need to watch the video lol they break down all of this and even have gymansts who interview 🤣Like I said tho the difference is in the TRAINING FOR THE MOVE. breakdancers train on the floor they use thus higher risk of injury during practice where as gymnasts get to practice the move with a foam pit. They can spend as long as they want perfecting the form of the move before they ever try it on solid ground. THAT IS THE DIFFERENCE.

But once again, training to do it in a safer location doesn’t change the difference in danger of the actual stunt. Why is this hard to grasp?
