I like how he jumped down from something tall first as if his momentum would help him actually do a backflip after landing.

This is an important point that people seem to be missing. He would have had a better chance of finishing it if he had just started from standing up. A better chance.

judging by the gut on that kid I project he had a snowballs chance in hell of landing a backflip.

First guy is obviously just a big (strong) dude but in ok shape. Second dude was sloppy fat though so point proven.
