Learning to backflip and landing on his head

[Bangon5]

Anybody know the point of all this?...How many drinks have these guys had anyway?...Martial arts and alcohol just don't mix!! LOL.

[bloodcorer]

first get a camera and then learn how to backflip.

[vintage243]

i couldnt rlly see what happen.. the quality was shockin =/

and for the grammar freaks commenting below *shocking* or *disasterous*

[steprogma]

i dont know what has happened to the quality. It used to play fine but now sticks ever few seconds

[drizzlekidd]

lol! epic fail

[Graysonowner]

You have to learn this with gymnastic professionals on a bed of foam first...so that you don't hurt yourself...use your head OR what's left of it!!

[princessisabella24]

stick itttttt!!!!!!!!

danngg y that ssooo harddd

[newbio8]

Fist of all he need to lurne how to jump. second he needs form. and third, he need a good teacher.

[newbio8]

2:06 epic face powne

[dwain112233]

First of all you need to learn how to spell.

[newbio8]

First of all you can Fuck yourself.

[dwain112233]

First if all you need to learn proper English you are not supposed to capitalize a word in the middle of the sentence unless it's a pronoun.

[newbio8]

FUCK YOURSELF and fuck it good. Because is that all you can say? stop wasting my time WOC

[Unratedkiller]

Yo, I laughed everytime he would try and land because his legs always gave out, and he'd say ohhh. Lol.

[DelinquetAngel]

Thats not bad dude.

My friend can run jump and flip forward and do a back flip like that ^ Im so jealous....Wanna learn this like soo much lol

Being a girl...It would be cool to see a girl doing this shit eh =P

I'd like to learn to do this.

:D Must be awesome to be an expert on this

x x x x

[datxcod]

No it wouldn't be awesome to see a girl doing it. UNLESS she's naked of course. If you do it make sure to post it here.

Seriously you can get into gymnastics if you want to do all sorts of crazy flips.

[frenrirrider]

.... hem, pervert

[mophead340]

i think you're describing a gainer and yes it would be awesome to see more girls doing this. try searching team e trickster school.

[bigpotato8]

dangerous thing look at 2:04

[steprogma]

Yep, he is nuts. He kept trying every class for three weeks. Eventually he landed it. Then I broke may ankle 5 minutes leter and he has never tried again

[bigpotato8]

im afraid i will break my neck

[jbleby]

all your height comes from your legs, your quadraceps...and use your arms...throw them up properly when you jump...then use your abs to get in a tight, but preferably shorter tuck...keep looking at the wall in front of you for as long as you can, dont throw your head back...backsaults are about power and precision, you cant just chuck it...get rid of the guys holding you in mid air, get a mat, practice your tuck jumps, THEN try to get over, staying in a tight tuck,

[steprogma]

He landed it, after this training session

[jbleby]

dude, well done for trying, but thats an extremely average backSAULT and i wouldnt teach it that way...dont do the lame bouncy thing on the floor...its HARD, its not a damn trampoline...

[steprogma]

Two weeks and two training sessions later he landed it by himself. We havent got the footage as on the same day 30 seconds later I messed mine up and broke my ankle. The vide was deleted after that.

[welshkid246]

lol he laded weird but he can do them better than me necause i cant do them at all lol!! thats y im watchin these vids!

[s97ek9]

2:05 lol

[lilt1599]

ok some advie.

try and pull your chest up after you make the turn

and you are staying tucked too long.

hope you get it!!

[Gamer101101]

That looked really painful! I learned how to do one on a trampoline. My friend wanted to learn one too, and long story short he ended up three feet from the trampoline... Anyways keep that spirit up!

[karthikp1981]

thatz the way, never give up , try try try

[b3Nz0STeveNS]

yea and wrestling mats are springy so haha noob he cant do it =]

[McMintaboi]

im so happy 4 u all

[pythor2]

dang! i gotta give you credit for trying it on the hard floor first and not a trampoline...and you hit the floor like idk how many times. that was very nice for a first try.

[FrenchVanilla32]

There on a mat

[pythor2]

so: trampoline = mat? what?

[underheater]

just a lil bit man....

[freme14]

nice!!great job it's scary to try on the hard floor nice!

[ruffjeff]

Afro Ninja!!!!...xDDD jk!

[Polpolker]

OW man that looked like it hurt!!! you fall like a rock too!

[graffpk]

try just doing 1 jump, because youre doing two little jumps then one big one, so focus, use ur arms to bring you around. and ALWAYS think half a second ahead of urself, thats extremely important. but stay tucked longer, itll help worlds

[2222222222y]

good, but pointer..your untucking wayy to soon..thats why your landing on your belly.

[jayeshshinai]

yeah its not d age but only d determination n flexibility to try it....its easy. ive tried it in d pool, n also when alone...but with others watchin, iv somehow always screwed it.

[unin00bster]

I always considered learning to do this at the edge of a pool or something - making sure my feet hit the water before the rest of me does. At the moment, I'm not flexible enough and my abs aren't strong enough but I'm getting there and then I will try it. If it's successful I'll post the method on youtube. :D

One of my friends said he can do it into a pool. The trick is to dry your feet off so you don't slip and hit your head.

[scrolllock123456]

hahaha, i used to do that, go on the edge of a pool and do it, and then once i hit my head on the edge of the pool and almost drowned, i can't do it anymore...

[unin00bster]

Haha yeah. One of my friends who is a gymnast just taught me the proper technique to do it into a pool specifically so that one does not hit his head - there's a way you sort of lean back before you even jump, and you'll land ~5 feet away from the edge. It's great. I really like hitting the water more than hitting the floor.

[V0r73ck5]

You got bigger stones that me mate. Hope you get/got there in the end :)

[aikidoshomenuchi]

I admire your courage , really . I woulnt've tried that not even in 100 years, congrats

[shintogunjin]

they learning it the hared way

[shintogunjin]

they learning it the hared way

[cheering2]

how do they do that ?

[dyrix92]

stupid noobs xD

[kulbruk]

amazing guts! what age are these these guys? i'd like to try that if i'm not too old for it ;)

[steprogma]

Kris (who is doing the flip) was 25, Ian (with blonde hair) was 23 and I was 30. I attempted my first backflip three months after this with these two spotting me. I landed badly on my second one and broke my ankle. It was bad luck not age (in my opinion)

[ShawnFlan]

I am trying to learn how

but to afraid like i dont wanna brake my neck

[valeeaglefan17]

haha me too i bearly started taking tumbling classes and im working on the backflip the second time i did it with backspotting i landed and hurt my neck but good thing i didnt break it

[Rock21118]

well at least he tryin some of yall probably cant even flip and tell u the truth i cant flip either

[Rock21118]

well at least he tryin some of yall probably cant even flip and tell u the truth i cant flip either

[angelaklamt]

its not bad the big thing is b4 u take of dont take them little steps fpward because u looso so much high and that means u have less time to rotate in the air thats why when u tryed foing it on your own you cept under spining also use a mat so you dnt hurt your seft. in learning bk tuck now on hard floor and its so much easyer if you jump higher but over all well done 4 havin the guts 2 try it it took me 3 mounths ti try it on mi own ;]

[34yf498bih]

what?!?!? he doesent land it.. after all that.. and why did he jkump forward first... that just makes it harder to get aaround

[steprogma]

he did land it. On march 3rd 2007. We had it on tape but straight afterwards I landed and broke my ankle. The video got deleted

[34yf498bih]

lol.. that sux

[wbs001mcdaniel]

does anyone know how critical your virticle jumping ability is and also if is harder for taller people to learn

[revolt13]

Not really, my vertical is decent but i'm pretty tall. I can still do it allright.

[mestrejeb]

land on ur feet u puss!!

[freelina900]

ur spotters are doing too much to help u...

[budys]

Why I make u laff?

[VirgiltheDarkSlayer]

How was he holding onto the teachers arm? Please explain in what way he was holding onto his arm, I really can't see what the poor quality (no offense).

[budys]

That was an Armlock from wich u can escape by doing backflip:)

[VirgiltheDarkSlayer]

I see that you can also learn how to do a backflip that way, am I right? (I think that it's one of the bst ways). How was he holding your arm? lol the video is too blurry.

[dilshan9]

wish i could find couple matea at my karate to help me do it like you lol, i like wat u did though as in the way u learnt it better than other videos cos this way i know that i need two people then with one then try by myself thanks man:D

[catmeatballs]

i want to learn how to do that so bad

[mcdevdog1]

lol keep trying

[steprogma]

Unfortunatly we stopped trying. We did have the footage of Kris landing the flip but on the same clip it has me land mine, keel over and break then dislocate my ankle. Worse one the Dr had ever seen lol. The footage got deleted.

[romagnoloverace1]

is he masochist?

[gerardoitalia]

I think so

[rory2501]

you have a lot of bottle clearly, i think your insane but I am impressed!

[Geronimo3869]

it sounded like you hurt you feet landing hard, good effort though, it takes balls

[CDsAblex]

lol

[budys]

About that game of pool i just want to say that i was a gentelmen afcourse:) Now i see that it was not even close to proper landing:) But if You still willing to help i`m ready to try again:)TNX for weeekend, BTW my neck is alright:)
