Personally I don't see too much to this guy - least not compared to the guys jumping off rooves. Anyone can do backflips, not everyone can jump 30ft and not break something.

That's true...I did see your backflip video and it was just like his.

As a matter of fact I can do them - not like him obviously, and the tumbling routines were good.

Sweet...I'd have to get hit by a car to do a flip.

As someone who took about 15 years of martial arts in different arts (Kenpo Karate and Shaolin Kung Fu)Also am a Lvl 3 Army Combatives Instructor. Have also been trained to fall from high places without getting hurt (aka military parachuting, rappelling, fast-roping, and zip-lining). Let me tell ya, this guy is good. Some of those tamer looking jumps and what not arent that tame. You have to land on specific parts of you're feet at a certain angle in order to keep the weight off easily broken or sprained areas. And those parts where he lands on his head and neck is tough to do without getting hurt.
Great vid

The biggest jump this guy does is something like a 10ft drop. I'm not saying it's not cool, I'm just saying it's not that extreme, anyone who's been doing gymnastics whatever for more than a year could do most of that stuff - as opposed to the guys jumping off buildings who stand a little more than a chipped tooth if they **** up.
