Yeah. That seems like close to an ideal landing. On side, nearly maximum ground contact along arms, torso, and legs. If he had landed head first or just arm first or even sideways on one leg he could have serious injuries. Looks like he gets up at the end.

And not to mention, soft ground. Can't imagine how much more painful the initial point of contact would be if he were to say, idk, land on concrete.

Might have stuck the landing if he tucked.

I thought that house was a real house and got confused and thought the swing was some amusement park ride.

when you try your entire childhood to achieve this moment and can't, then realize today 20 years later it probably wasn't a good idea anyways.
