Raygun Breaks Down Cam Bynum's Vikings Celebration After Watching Viral NFL Video

After an interception in the Minnesota Vikings win over the Jacksonville Jaguars, Camryn Bynum hit a legendary celebration.

The Vikings' safety recreated the Olympic break dancing performance Raygun—or Rachael Gunn—put on in Paris earlier this year.

According to TMZ Sports, the viral Australian break dancer fully approved of the celebration.

"Finishing with the kangaroo. Teammates got involved, crowds cheering, that's a celebration," she said.

The celebration wasn't a spontaneous move from Bynum—he's been planning to do it for a while now.

"I memorized it and studied her," he said. "I had to memorize the dance because I'm like one of my interceptions. I had to do it. I'm excited about the catch and the interception, but my biggest thing was to get that celebration off, and I got it, and I'm happy."

According to TMZ, Bynum wants to meet with Gunn after the season for a dance battle, which would be quite the event.

Though Gunn was a major talking point of this year's Olympics, she announced recently that her time in Paris would be her last time competing in the sport. She attributed the backlash from her performance as a reason for calling it quits.

"I'm not going to compete anymore, no," she told 2DayFM (h/t ESPN). "I was going to keep competing, for sure, but that seems really difficult for me to do now to approach a battle. Yeah, I mean I still dance, and I still break. But, you know, that's like in my living room with my partner. It's been really upsetting. I just didn't have any control over how people saw me or who I was."

While Gunn's performance wasn't perceived well by many, she at least made a fan in Bynum.
