if ever i need to feel pure love and joy in my life once again i simply rewatch jason' brown's riverdance routine:
youtube
(and if you're going why does he look familiar yes, he was also the guy with the cotton eye joe routine, the can't touch this routine and more recently, the backsteet boys routine)
#behold: a performance that makes me actually like Riverdance#also HOLY FUCK THOSE SCORES!!!!!!#if you weren't paying attention they mentioned/showed on screen that going into the performance#he would need a score of at least 172+ to take the lead in the final--and his personal best had only ever been as high as 150+#THIS MAN. GOT OVER /182/ POINTS WITH THAT. WITHOUT USING A SINGLE QUAD JUMP!!!!#DO YOU KNOW HOW BONKERS THAT IS?!?!?!#men's singles is utterly dominated by quad-level jumps--even back in 2014 most olympic contenders could only get there#by having at least one good quad jump in their arsenal due to how many points it gives you (even sometimes to just attempt it)#(if you watched Yuri on Ice this might sound familiar to you--it stays pretty faithful on a whole to what the modern sport actually is)#SO TO SCORE THAT FUCKING HIGH. USING ONLY SINGLE DOUBLE AND TRIPLE JUMPS AND CHOREOGRAPHY#is. how you say. ABSOLUTELY BUCKWILD BONKERS
