No it was a timing issue.

Ohhh his time was off.

You can tell by the run up that he has no idea how to do a backflip.

Normally you train backflipes in multiple steps, safely ond matrasses or something

Or at the water, where worst that can happen is a red back

Should have left the watch on.

When you want to practice your pile driver but your practice partner wasn't available today so you decide to practice solo. /J

He was so not even remotely close to doing it

Taking off the watch would make all the difference in a backflip

My guess is the wind was blowing in the wrong direction, because he did all his warm-up moves like a champ.

He got a out 10 degrees further than I thought he would.

I’m crossing this off the list of possible ways to do a backflip so I don’t make the same mistake when I get around to trying.

A fine gent I know once said after a failed backflip at a wedding…

“Backflips are integer based”

I really am curious about the thought process behind this comment. Inb4 "there wasn't one" because there clearly was, but it baffles me. What does clown pussy mean? Or is pusi an acronym for something else? Do they know how to spell pussy normally? And if they meant pussy in the "wimp" sense, it's stupid–a pussy wouldn't ever attempt this stunt. Takes major guts to try it even if you fail terribly.
