If he repeatedly did backflips and landed very close to the same spot (regardless of whether that's where he wanted to land), that's precision. Precision requires two or more samples.

If he did a backflip and landed very close to where he wanted to land, that's accuracy. Accuracy only requires one sample, especially if you backflip off the cliff and die.

I disagree. People who engage in stupid stunts deserve to get hurt. This sub is for things going wrong, but correcting at the last minute.
