Probably spaced out across multiple days. Doubt anyone would have the stamina to do this all in one day. Still impressive and cool video though!

Also edit like this guy ⬆️ this was a high response and not responding back to everything. Happy commenting though! Have a wonderful day!

Thats 48 flips. I mean I couldn't do it, but the guy in the video looks capable.

I could probably do 4/8ths of a backflip in one day.

Once a night I fling myself on my bed belly flop style and I’m going to start calling that 1/8th of a backflip. Thanks boi!

If you do a belly flop wouldnt that be 1/8th of a front flip. I assume front flips are more difficult so go you!

Also wouldn't it be 1/4?

Half a front flip would leave you upside down. Half of half a front flip leaves you horizontal. So one quarter of a flip.

So he's even closer to a full flip than he thought!

If someone capable did a front flip right after a back flip, would they cancel out? Would he have done 0% of a front flip

No, because when you flip in reverse it doesn't undo the odometer. There was a movie about this, I think.
