B-Boy Junior

Guys name is Junior. Believe he is French. Story goes he had some crippling disease or an accident that left him with a slim chance of walking again. So he built up his upper body strength and got use of him limbs again. The rest is history. The track is a remix obviously. "I know you got soul" Remixed by Acen. Can be found mixed on DJ DB's "The Higher Education Drum 'N' Bass Session" mix cd. DB is one the pioneers of the modern day NYC Drum And Bass scene. Check the mix out.

Ive posted the same video before I had no idea this guy was nearly crippled at some point.
That is truly impressive.

B-Boy Junior pt. II

We have this crazy breaker here from Montreal who is "paralyzed" yet he still can dance...it's too bad there's not many good videos of this guy on youtube.

This guys is crazy good! My back hurts now from watching those moves. Where's my Ibuprofin?

These are all physically impressive but lack the old skool charm of the 'propper' street dancing of the eighties.

I wonder if it is easier with less leg weight, as in "amputee"...

Actually, I can relate to that, having at one point in my life spent much of my time for over a year using those crutches (and again for several months, years later). After a while, I could do various balancing tricks on them quite easily; they become almost like part of your body, and you "learn" them just a like a baby learns to walk, and you develop the strength and muscular control through use. Still, some of the moves those guys do are impressive. There is a reason our feet are as big as they are, and hands are not feet! LOL

That move he pulls at about 1:13 is simply awesome.

But this guy's better..
