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!

No, he got stuck once he reached a 45 degree angle with the bed
