Backflipping with someone on your back?

[ALE?!]

has it been done before? someone backflipping while giving someone else a piggy back ride? :D
is it even possible?

i was writing my management essay and came across this irrelevant thought

[jaron]

me and jamie will attempt it and tell u how close we get. chances are ur gonna need someone real light to pull it off.

[anerky]

haha kinda funny that I was just thinking about that today while was carrying around my little sister on my shoulders ..you would need to be immensly strong and the other person would need to be very light

It can probably be done on a trampoline... or maybe off a height. Otherwise, I don't know... you'd need a bitchin' vert.

[Trixter]

I saw someone do it on a gymnastic tramp. but off the ground I doubt it.

[lastmanstanding]

well there is an easy way of precticing it: you strap a weight to your back then keep increasing the weight (eg an empty schoolbag that you keep putting extra stuff in it) and keep doing that until you can competently flip with the weight of a small person on your back. then flip with a lighter person on your back, then get faster.

the main difficult if the massive increase in your radius, which makes you spin slower.

ive thought about doing it whilst playing the guitar too.

And then you slipped and bailed...

Do me a favour and only use another tricker willing to die, not your baby sister.

Hmm. Well seeing as the wait is going to be around your core and slightly above, you're probably not going to go all the way round and will center around your head. When your hands fail the weight of 2 people, you will have a fun time with concussion. The other person will however fall very lightly an will put his/her hands down and also have your body to slow them down, and they can laugh at you, and watch a pool of blood form on the floor.

you mean like luke carried yoda when he did the frontflip, just with a backflip?

[TKD_Andy]

japanese gmynastics pairs.

i bet they could do it, the guys are immensely strong and the women are pretty light.

[Steve]

The person on top would also have to swing their arms, and maybe grab the legs of the person below as they pike over

[Starter Kit]

The bail would be much more amusing though.

ive actaully seen something pretty close to this : cirque du soliel dude held child in front of him and backfliped on a springy pole like 3 inches wide

but on the back it be a lot different tho

[Raven]

No, it cant be done. DOnt even try it.

[jackenloper]

If there is someone here that could prob do it, I'd say its Rianu. He wears the 50 lb weight on his back. If he just trains and gets to 90 lbs, and then finds an anorexic girl, we have a new super trick in store!

[sp3ctum]

I wonder what one would look like.... The tuck would look funny, I bet :D

[cepopeye]

Pro wrestlers do this from hieght all the time, in several different formations. Not from standing though

[Alexx]

i think they might have done it on cirque do soliel, i'll post up a vid if i find it.

[Sigil]

I did a backflip with one of my friends on my back into some water...we were on a 45 foot lift though.

[Alexx]

It kind of has been done
heres one with a kid on the front on a pole - http://img220.imageshack.us/img220/5787/bflipwithkid0xa.gif

[daviddalo]

[Alexx]

you ought to see the other stuff they do on that. : 0
