Viral Australian Olympian Rachael “Raygun” Gunn has lost her job at Sydney’s Macquarie University after more than 15 years of association.
In February 2026, the 38-year-old, who was an academic in the institution’s arts department, stepped down as part of the latest round of cost-cutting redundancies.
Gunn became one of the biggest stories of the 2024 Paris Olympics for her widely memed breakdancing performance, which failed to earn her a single point against three opponents.
