Don't try this at home link

Hey, it's the guy from the Weezer video.

Ouch

+10 for effort

I only tried doing a flip once (besides on a trampoline). It was a forward flip, and I landed flat on my back. It knocked the wind right out of me. I was pretty young, and I never felt the need to try again. Of course, now I watch tons of martial arts movies and feel pathetic.

I was bouncing on a friend's trampoline when I was, 23 or so... everyone started yelling at me to do a backflip, so I did... 90% of the way... my chin touched my navel. Took about a minute before my synapses would fire and let me move again, everyone thought I was joking.

That's a terrifying 60 seconds, I tell you... like "wow, after all the stupid s*** I've pulled, I'm going out on a trampoline."

Didn't he read the warning that came with his nunchucks?

"Do not attempt to flip, dumbass."

Ouch. Trampolines are dangerous. My favorite mishap was jumping around with other people, and another person bounced me up and off the trampoline onto the nice metal wire of the clothesline. That one hurt, but I was younger than 23, so I bounced back quick.

I was always too scared to do backflips on a trampoline, even though people always said they were easier. I guess I did a sort of backflip--you know, the kind where you land on your butt and bounce backward. But yeah, otherwise it was just forward flips and side flips.

This guy was on the South Park episode that made fun of internet celebrities. If this is the first time you've seen this guy, then perhaps you need to look at the numa numa guy, star wars kid, chocolate rain, britney spears fan, tron guy... I could go on.

There is an earnestness to the Star Wars kid that I find oddly endearing.
