Rachael Gunn, otherwise known as Raygun, ventured out to Oxford Street on Thursday night, making an appearance at Stonewall Hotel before letting loose on Universal Sydney's ground-level stage.
In a video uploaded by drag queen Champagne, the crowd can be seen chanting the Australian breakdancer's name as she attempts to perform some sort of dance before tripping and falling.
As she makes for a swift recovery, Raygun turns around to the crowd and motions with both her fingers back and forth as if to say "OK, that's enough of that". She then snatches the mic from one of the hosts.
What happens next is unclear.
One witness who saw her out on the night said: "She was very kind and just wanted to party.
"She was encouraging others to dance and have a good time
"Unfortunately, I didn't witness any kangaroo moves."
Raygun wore shorts adorned with cat prints, a loose-fitting polo top in maroon and dark navy, and sneakers.
Raygun became a viral sensation after her breaking performance at the Paris Olympics, which included moves like kangaroo hops.
She announced her retirement from competitive breaking in November, citing the viral response to her Olympic performance.
Correction: Rachael's last name is Gunn, not Gun as originally written.
