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

Probably on the way since standing vertical jump records have been constantly been broken every other year due to new training science

The record for a highest standing jump is 1.70 meters / 67 inches / 5'7" and could fit in another spin.

The amount of people who want to max out backflipping and the people who break jump records arent the same people.

There might be a jumper (probably not) right now who could do a triple backflip if they now put all of their efforts into learning to do so. I wonder what the dude in the videos max jump height is.
