From Usher to ‘Raygun,’ Vikings’ Camryn Bynum Delivers Viral Moments

The pressure is mounting on Vikings safety Camryn Bynum with every interception this season.

Bynum already has a career-high three picks, but he feels obligated to outperform each one.

Not the takeaway itself, but the dancing celebration that will follow.

“I’ve written 20 to 25, but it’s hard now because they’re getting more and more viral, so I can’t let people down,” Bynum said. “Only a few of them are worth doing next.” I have a few good ones that will probably be great later. But right now it’s a struggle because it’s: How can I surpass the last one? That’s the challenge, but I’m figuring it out.

Bynum, 26, went viral on social media with each elaborate celebration that followed interceptions against the Texans, Jets and Jaguars, the last being a game-clinching pick, after which he pulled out an impersonation of the Australian Olympic breakdancer Rachael “Raygun” Gunn. .

As Bynum spun around on the turf, moving from a handstand to the kangaroo pose popularized by Raygun’s mocking routine this summer at the Paris Olympics, he confused some of his more experienced colleagues.

“I don’t know what dance Cam was doing,” defensive coordinator Brian Flores said. “I mean, I know that now, but I had no idea what he did live.”

“For a second, I didn’t know what he was doing last time,” safety Harrison Smith said. “Like, that looks really bad.” But then he succeeded.
