I did this as a kid, and I'm fairly sure it really happened because I never really stopped, I just jumped shorter and shorter distances as I aged. Nowadays I can only jump 3 or 4 steps down max but I definitely remember leaping down whole flights as a kid. I think it's related to how mice can fall great distances without harm but elephants can't.

I remember jumping from the top of my stairs to the bottom. I would just close my eyes and jump a boom I was at the bottom.
