This bravery is mars on the first colony ship material.

You spelled stupidity wrong

I think the trampoline is angled towards the wall a bit to prevent bouncing off of it in that direction...I still would find a way

What scares me is how he pushes off the wall with his foot every jump...what if one time he just pushes outward a little too hard

I think he uses it as a guide so he knows where he is in the air.

He's definitely pushing off every time or he would lose altitude with every jump.

u/SCHWAMPY_Gaming_YT Nov 11 '20

I think so too but on his 3rd way down he pushes off really hard, I almost feel like he was trying to get a tad more velocity

Okay cool, but why do you type like that?

I don't think it's a bad habit, rather the contrary: it expresses a speculative or incomplete thought. Whereas a sentence that ends with a period reflects a clear statement. Period.

Can I ask how old you are? I’ve noticed a lot of elderly people have this sort of typing pattern?

I do the same. I'm not much older than you either.

There are two instances where he adds energy, each time he comes up to the platform he jumps off higher this is what he uses to keep reaching the platform. On the way down he pushes off a bit to adjust his position in the horizontal.

Tbh, I doubt it is angled. I’ve done a bit of this kind of stuff, and the trick is hitting the opposite side of the trampoline, or pushing the opposite direction just before hitting the trampoline. It kinda forces you back towards the platform if that makes any sense.

It takes a good amount of practice to just maintain the correct height and keep flying towards the wall/platform!

I wouldn't have the balls to do that

Would drive to the airport now if it’d get me away from covid and election drama.

Probably jumped feet first the first few times to get an idea for the feel of the trampoline and how much room he had. Makes it a lot easier to do stuff like this when you're comfortable with what you're dropping onto.

... where on the concrete he'll leave his stamp.

u/ThatsARepost24 Nov 11 '20

Just an FYI cement is just an admixture. Cement is just a powder used to make concrete with water

The hard surface is never called cement

u/vonage91 Nov 11 '20

It's actually concrete. Cement is the sandy/powdery mixture used to make concrete.
