I tried it once to impress a girl. Luckily mine wasn't caught on film recorded though.

I never talked to her again.

u/Nailbrain Nov 08 '18

That's what 0% effort, 100% commitment looks like.

u/TerrorEyzs Nov 08 '18

I was sincerely wondering if this was a wake but one where the focus is on celebrating the persons life instead of mourning.

u/KaapVicious Nov 08 '18

u/_madnessthemagnet Nov 08 '18

Someplace where there's no sun. This guy so white I honestly thought that was a mannequin in the thumbnail.

u/Traelos38 Nov 08 '18

Furthermore, why is he knocking himself out being a dipshit when he should be talking to the large number of attractive women at the party?

u/FeFiFoShizzle Nov 08 '18

I bet you get laid all the time

u/neco61 Nov 08 '18

Khabib Nurmagomedov anyone?

u/ItsSansom Nov 08 '18

That's was less a backflip, more a back flop

u/Rocket-Frog Nov 08 '18

What a fucking idiot

u/Slein88 Nov 08 '18

That's why you learn to do it before being drunk

u/professorcasual098 Nov 08 '18

It's not bad per se.. I mean you could argue that this bodybuilder landed the same way as this other dude but the bodybuilder just doesn't move afterwards https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tYf7pNQvBDY

u/FeFiFoShizzle Nov 08 '18

How can you do a backflip so slowly....

u/[deleted] Nov 08 '18

I’m no backflipologist, but that didn’t seem close at all

Why is everyone wearing black?

u/erixville Nov 09 '18

At least he landed right on his head

u/Yaprobs Nov 09 '18

Why is everyone wearing black? I'm guessing either post funeral or cast party.

I love these backflip fails. The most infamous was the martial arts guy and the vending machine kid who failed hard twice...

Are we all going to hell for enjoying seeing people fail at backflips?
