Despite competing with a rib injury that altered their choreography, Robert showcased remarkable resilience, achieving a near-perfect score of 29 out of 30 on his first routine, followed by two perfect scores in his final dances.
In a heartfelt moment after his last performance, Robert expressed his desire to make his late father, Steve Irwin, proud. “I wish he could see it, I really wish he could be here,” he said, eliciting emotional responses from both the audience and viewers at home.
