Irish guy back flip faceplant

See, this is why our moms used to make us play outside. This genius decided to bring a mattress indoors, to practice his back flip. Protip: Next time wait for the rain to stop so you can use a trampoline.
he didn’t get enough height obviously, but see how he brings his arms back into his chest…that’s why he landed on his face. His form was way off. You need to throw your arms back above your head, and as the rest of your body rotates, bring your arms in, that way, even if you don’t get enough height, you at least land on your knees and not on your head.
PLAY HIM OFF KEYBOARD CAT!

That hurts to WATCH.
Try it again one more time. I know you can do it. Maybe stand on the coffee table and try.
It’s all in the extension of the legs (for height) and reach of the arms past the ears (for rotation), both which were lacking in this failed demonstration. That definitely had to hurt! ouch!!!
