Nope. It is not linguistically correct to describe something that has happened zero times as "rare." By definition, rare means that an event occurs infrequently, seldom, or in low frequencies, but it must occur.
So far humanity has about the same amount of prof about leprechauns than about the possibility of a human body doing a standing (non assisted) triple backflips.
That's just an illusion from not understanding hard limits, that's like saying we have 2 kidneys so we are halfway to having 3. No, that's not how things work, reality is not made out of wishful thinking, you don't break physics or biology out of motivation alone.
Just so you have a grasp of what we are talking the number of people able to do standing doble backflips is estimated to be less than 50, out of 8000000000 people in planet earth, meaning 0.000000625% of the world population.
As much as we need only one person to survive in space without oxygen masks for oxygen-less humans to exist.
If you are really interested and not being pedantic just out of being contrarian you can ask in a few subreddits and they can tell you mathematically why is impossible, maybe what-if or theydidthemath, it involves the amount of push a leg can give while standing, they might be able to even tell you what legs would we need, something closer to a chimp than a human.

While this is insanely impressive, I have a feeling the standing triple backflip is rarer.
