The buzz around Dancing With the Stars Season 34 just skyrocketed after a fan-leaked rehearsal video of Robert Irwin and Witney Carson surfaced online. The clip, recorded quietly from inside the studio, has already gone viral — and fans can’t stop raving about what they’ve seen.
In the footage, Robert and Witney dive into their Week 2 choreography with electrifying energy. Every step looks sharp, every movement loaded with intention, and the undeniable chemistry between the two radiates through the screen. Viewers immediately sensed this wasn’t just another practice — it was a glimpse of a performance destined to be remembered.
What has truly set the internet ablaze, however, are whispers that the routine may once again pay tribute to Robert’s roots. Hints from the rehearsal suggest the number could be dedicated to wildlife and conservation, tying Robert’s passion for animals into his DWTS journey in a way only an Irwin could pull off.
For longtime fans, the parallels to Bindi Irwin’s unforgettable run on the show a decade ago are impossible to ignore. Social media is already flooded with comparisons, with one fan writing: “It feels like déjà vu — another Irwin capturing our hearts with pure authenticity.” Others say Robert’s performance looks poised to echo the same heartfelt storytelling that made his sister a champion.
The leaked footage also highlights Robert’s rapid growth as a performer. Only a week into the competition, his movements already show newfound confidence, precision, and a natural rhythm that has stunned even his skeptics. “He’s not just surviving — he’s thriving,” one fan declared on X, summing up the excitement rippling across platforms.
Meanwhile, Witney Carson’s influence is clearly shaping Robert’s transformation. Her choreography challenges him without stripping away his individuality, striking a perfect balance between technical mastery and emotional resonance. Fans have praised the duo’s synergy, calling them one of the strongest partnerships of the season.
