Rachel Gunn, known as B-girl "Raygun" from Australia, has become the top-ranked breaker in the world, despite her disappointing performance at the Paris Olympics.

Details: The International Federation of Breaking released its updated world rankings, placing "Raygun" at the top. This decision sparked debate among fans, as she was eliminated in her first match at the Olympics without scoring a point.

The ranking system takes into account the four best performances from the past 12 months, with points remaining valid for 52 weeks. However, Olympic qualification and the Games themselves are not factored into the rankings.

Reminder: At the Olympics, Rachel Gunn was defeated by American breaker "Logistx" with a score of 0:2 (0:18), receiving significant criticism for her performance.

Additionally, authorities in France prevented three potential terrorist attacks during the Olympic and Paralympic Games, arresting five individuals suspected of planning the attacks.
