"You breakdanced on the runway!It wasn't my best performance because when I put my hands down to go up on my hands, I slid across the floor and that caused me to come down. So I had to go up a second time, and that was pretty good but it wasn't what I'm capable of. When would you say was your heyday for breakdancing? I think in college in the late '70s."

He said he could get very low during limbo. The account links moments of youthful physical performance to later public life and personal anecdotes about past competitions.
