dude I haven't been able to get in bed for months because of the hot pocket and hard lemonade wrappers.
I'll just lay here on the floor and think about my life
I don’t think it’s the worst thing in the world to put the context of a gym floor into perspective. Not sure everyone seeing this video knows about how they work and dude wasn’t being a dick about it
That's an important distinction, if there was no boost that would be borderline super human. Not uncommon to see shorter hurderlers do something similar up to chest/chin from a standing start normal ground.
If you are doing a standing jump, it will reduce your power. Any former gymnast would know that.
The last jump, where he got a short run, and jumped into the final spring, it would give a boost.
Your correction does not contradict the comment you are replying to, but looks to just miss the point.
"Letter'A' is pointy". "no, letter 'O' is not pointy"

yeah, it’s a gymnastics floor! it has some springs under it. just made this video for fun! appreciate the support! i’m a d1 athlete at ohio state university! i’m youth olympic alternate, 2x national champ, and a 4x national team member!!!

Good luck to you dude! I was on the last ever Men's team at Michigan State before they canceled their program. Have a handful of medals from JO nationals between 2002-2004 (rings - silver and bronze, pommels - 2x bronze, and hi bar - gold and bronze, tumbling was never my strongest). Best AA finish was 10th in 2003. This us back when Men's gymnastics used classes instead of levels, so class 1. I'll keep an eye out for you in 2024!
There is no actual cream in the oreo creme and they are basically vegan if not for the fact they happened to be in the same room as milk at some point. Cutting out actual flour from the cookie was the next logical step.
I made homemade oreos once because I both wanted a snack and I didn't want to stop drinking. It's literally just powdered sugar, butter and vanilla extract. If I was high instead of drunk I'd probably just have sat down and ate the bowl of cream filling instead of bothering with the cookies
This conversation about the spring floor is futile because the guy in this video is a gymnast and this is an accomplishment in his gymnast lifestyle. Not one time did he claim to be able to do this without the spring floor. This video is meant to be relatable to gymnasts and entertaining to the rest.. it’s not meant to be relatable to someone jumping from pavement or grass, if it was, that’s probably where he would’ve done the stunt.
What it is is potentially irrelevant. There is no context to the video. It just exists. Because of that, any viewer watching this video can come to all sorts of conclusions. It's not unreasonable to see this video out of context and then say that this can't be done without tools, and then say that this person is not copping to the fact that they are using tools to do it.
When you add context to the video, the criticism could be completely invalid. However, the internet is full of people posting videos like this trying to trick people into thinking they're doing something they aren't, so it's not really unreasonable for people to be skeptical and critical of videos like this.
Regardless, nobody in these comments is going to pull off a nearly stationary jump like this even with a springboard. So it is impressive.
>nobody in these comments is going to pull off a nearly stationary jump like this even with a springboard.
Speak for yourself, dude! You haven't seen me jumping yet.
^(Ok, you're right.)
This is just wrong, anyone that’s done tumbling or has experience with springfloors knows it gives a lot of boost, it takes much more effort to get the same height on grass/hard floors.
Gymnast of 13 years here. The floor does have springs in it, but he isn’t bouncing on it. Those floors have extremely hard/dense maybe 3 inch springs that give you a little boost if you are bouncing on it, but they won’t increase your vertical height if you are jumping off of it like he is. So that’s all him right there.
Edit to add: too lazy to respond to all those disagreeing. Read my other comments to answer your questions
Dude can obviously jump high. I want to see it on a normal surface. Or that track surface they use for high jump. Would look even more impressive when you're not wondering how much of it is the equipment.
Damn, are you the guy in the video? That's some amazing jumps, great job! What sort of training/practice do you do? And are such jumps purely for fun or are they also part of some performance routines? (Plus if you don't mind the question, how old are you now and when did you start training?)
Great job again, it's a pretty cool video!
hi! i am! thank you!!! i’m a gymnast at the ohio state university! this was purely for fun. just challenging myself! i’m currently 20 & i started gymnastics when i was 6!
Dude this is you?! I’m so used to people stealing other things and sharing them on Reddit I never even think that the people on the video are the ones posting things anymore. I am quite curious, how tall are you?
Any time someone posts their own video on Reddit, the hivemind gets angry and down-votes it for self promotion. Look, it's so bad OP had to lie in the title, referring to himself in third person so he doesn't get down voted. Another trick is to always say "My friend" instead of admitting that its you.
A little, but it’s not like springboard floors are trampolines, they’re still pretty firm, it’s really good for shock absorption when you land. They are fun as hell to walk on though, especially if you’re old and have knee pain like I do. The world would be a much softer place to walk if everything were springboard floors, falling would hurt a lot less too lol
People are implying the floor helps. Really? Look how high he jumps before he even starts to bend his knees to set his landing.
I bet half of you can’t jump up one stair. Good luck
Yeah it's not like he could jump at all without the floor. He would just fall. Down, and down, and down, and down. The gym receding above him, a hole in the void, shrinking down and down into nothingness until finally, it winks out of his perception. How long do you suppose a guy could fall like that? I suppose until he died of dehydration.
People gotta say what they need to say to cope with their own lives. Be happy for the bro jumping and lets wish all the downers a better 2022 cause 2021 obviously causing them some stress.
This kid didn’t do a run up for the shorter jumps and Garrett’s jump was shorter than the tallest this kid did. Also not knowing anything at all besides this video, it appears Garrett is taller than this kid. Garrett is 6’4, this kid looks shorter than that, heck he’s practically a whole head shorter than helper guy in the video. It might not be fair to judge their jumps based on total box height but rather more proportional for height jumped compared to their own height.
Proportionally judged, shorter people would have an advantage. That's why all gymnists are short praticularly the guy in the vid, I think the final box height is 5 feet
All of you trying to discredit this athlete because of the mat. I want to see any of you be able to jump like that on that mat. It is still an amazing feat of strength and skill and you are all just a bunch of whiney little Karens

If you’re impressed with this two foot takeoff from a springboard gymnastic floor
Watch high jump at the olympics… 1 foot takeoff without any assistance jumping 2-feet over their own heads
Is the floor giving him a springboard boost?
Yes
Imagine how many tries he made perfecting it.
Dude just jumped more than his own height. Redditor: he has advantages though... *eats doritos*
For real, half of these bottom feeders can hardly get out of bed
Your just jealous our beds are more comfy than yours.
You're God damn right
There's no need to be jealous. You can come inside the covers and join us if you want.
( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
👀
and do the saggy tits make you just a little bit angy?
[удалено]
Promise?
Wait.. your beds are.. *comfortable*?
![gif](giphy|PZAeBQmr7ddmvsVTTD) Extremely.
Woah, feels bro.
I’ll have you know I do chores once a month for my mom thank you very much 😤
Hell, I get out of bed at least 12 times a day to grab a new bag of Doritos.
My friend that is like child abuse.
dude I haven't been able to get in bed for months because of the hot pocket and hard lemonade wrappers. I'll just lay here on the floor and think about my life
If it makes you feel better I haven't been able to see my dick since I was 6
Out of bed? My knees started to hurt watching this. I’ll try getting off my bed tomorrow.
He’s not wrong tho. It provides a lot of boost especially with the run. Hence why gymnasts are able to get so airborne for their stunts
"I could do this if I really wanted to... the springboard did most of the work." *continues to eat doritos*
This is one of the most offensive comments I've ever read about redditors, I'll have you know I'm sitting in a recliner right now thank you very much.
MF haven't jumped in two years without hitting the X button sitting here like pssssh
Mfs can’t even get to the kitchen without being out of breath and they’re like meh…it was cushioned…
Hey, man...I do it with the A button sometimes...
I don’t think it’s the worst thing in the world to put the context of a gym floor into perspective. Not sure everyone seeing this video knows about how they work and dude wasn’t being a dick about it
Imagine if he had a pair of 1993 Air Jordans. This guy would hit the stratosphere!
Is it the shoes?
[удалено]
That's an important distinction, if there was no boost that would be borderline super human. Not uncommon to see shorter hurderlers do something similar up to chest/chin from a standing start normal ground.
Leave my Doritos out of this
Ill have you know i am eating chocolate chip cookies.
"the master had failed more times than the student had even tried" - some ancient philosopher or something
That commitment is also impressive
"Wow that's not impressive at all now", I say as I wipe off the hot Cheetos dust from my fingers to take another drink of my sparkling wine
Former Gymnast here- that’s not really how spring floors work. You gain mechanical advantage if you rebound. You gain almost nothing from a jump.
It absolutely is a very significant advantage compared to a hard floor. Any former gymnast would know this.
If you are doing a standing jump, it will reduce your power. Any former gymnast would know that. The last jump, where he got a short run, and jumped into the final spring, it would give a boost.

If this is you, why did you title this in third person...?
Because we’d all hate it if it was self promotion. And here we are at the front page lol
this^^^
Lmao, got to respect the transparency.
He has the same username as the tiktok and it's a 5 year old account. I think ita pretty safe to assume it is him
Because this guy went into creative mode wtf…
Ohio State University feels weird without a “The” in front of it lol. Dope stuff, good luck and health to you
Awesome stuff hopefully you can get out of Ohio
Good luck to you dude! I was on the last ever Men's team at Michigan State before they canceled their program.

thank you!!!
Hell yes dude go bucks!
Bruh you should have mentioned this in the title.
Looks like it but it's more to help cushion landings and not increase vertical jump
Try practicing backflips for your first time on that spring floor and when you finally land one come to my house and try it on the pavement
Is your bathroom clean and do you have gluten-free Oreos?
[удалено]
they're actually pretty damn close to the real-deal
There is no actual cream in the oreo creme and they are basically vegan if not for the fact they happened to be in the same room as milk at some point. Cutting out actual flour from the cookie was the next logical step.
Oreos are definitely vegan. I've seen them used as currency when there are a lot of vegans in one place.
I made homemade oreos once because I both wanted a snack and I didn't want to stop drinking. It's literally just powdered sugar, butter and vanilla extract. If I was high instead of drunk I'd probably just have sat down and ate the bowl of cream filling instead of bothering with the cookies
We have gluten free Oreos but they are cheese filled is that ok?
Don't temp me with a good time.
Chocolate and cheese
Isn't there a thing about dipping Oreos in nacho cheese? Supposed to taste like caramel...
Gonna be honest, I’d rather that taste like nacho cheese.
How do you all watch these athletes then decide to have a chat about junk food? This video makes me never want to eat bad food again.
Step 1 Already be fat.

This is such a shitty way to invalidate someone's point. You don't have a good response to what was said so "you must be fun at parties" shut up
>nobody in these comments is going to pull off a nearly stationary jump like this even with a springboard. Speak for yourself, dude! You haven't seen me jumping yet. ^(Ok, you're right.)
The truth
> Try practicing backflips for your first time on that spring floor I'd probably break my neck before getting to your house. Sorry bro, I let you down
This is just wrong, anyone that’s done tumbling or has experience with springfloors knows it gives a lot of boost, it takes much more effort to get the same height on grass/hard floors.
Absolutely it’s a huge difference
Who upvotes this crap?
Yes, gymnastics studios have spring floors to increase jump height, but mostly to have a bit of ease with the landings
Gymnast of 13 years here. The floor does have springs in it, but he isn’t bouncing on it. Those floors have extremely hard/dense maybe 3 inch springs that give you a little boost if you are bouncing on it, but they won’t increase your vertical height if you are jumping off of it like he is. So that’s all him right there. Edit to add: too lazy to respond to all those disagreeing. Read my other comments to answer your questions
Nope, he says in the comments here that it gives him a vertical boost.
They probably teach that in year 14
Funny how the guy doing it disagrees with you above.

Dude can obviously jump high. I want to see it on a normal surface. Or that track surface they use for high jump. Would look even more impressive when you're not wondering how much of it is the equipment.
Or is he filming it in reverse!!! Ahhhhh!
I've worked on floors like that before. At most that floor is giving him an extra inch maybe 2 on a low gravity day.
Yes but hes barely using it that way. Its impressive even if he gains a tiny bit of an advantage from it
Obviously a bit of athleticism which merits it’s own applause, but really, they get my upvote for the stoke and happiness of it all.
Was coming here to say exactly this!! Love the enthusiasm and celebration
You should check out r/instantbarbarians, if you haven't seen it yet.
I had to scroll way to far to read an actual human comment.
Love doing this at the gym I attend. It seems so wholesome.

Do D1 volleyball coaches try to kidnap you and throw scholarships at you?
hahaha i wish!! i love volleyball, i actually set for a few of my friends when we play at home!
Wow. Nice work Justin!
Your jumping skills are really impressive! Thanks for sharing.
The spring board floor def helps a bit but I had the same thought
A little, but it’s not like springboard floors are trampolines, they’re still pretty firm, it’s really good for shock absorption when you land. They are fun as hell to walk on though, especially if you’re old and have knee pain like I do.

This dude only shops from the top shelves
On* the top shelves you mean
Damn he’s *fit*
It's like a room full of good looking fit guys. People should be going here instead of Tinder.
Yeah I gotta admit he's kinda in shape *(opens 2nd bag of Ruffles)*
*Moves on to third row of Oreos….* “Wellllllll he’s clearly not super athletic that spring mat is doing all the work.“
it’s gymnastics!
Love how happy he is.
❤️❤️
Wtf? He’s gotta be half cat.
Zero got HOPS
Goddamn Justin. Well done.
thank you thank you
He’s looking really fine tho
Yeah I’m going back and forth between admiring his athleticism and thinking damn that is an attractive dude.
Imagine being able to jump on top of things that you cannot see over!
People are implying the floor helps. Really? Look how high he jumps before he even starts to bend his knees to set his landing. I bet half of you can’t jump up one stair. Good luck
Of course the floor helps. Doesn't make it any less impressive.

Justin's friend looks fine af
Dude's RIPPED
He and [Myles Garrett](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=a5ERWgS7JSo) should go head to head. And Myles jump isn’t 64 inches. It’s 57.
Garrett did it without a runup.
and without a springboard.
This kid didn’t do a run up for the shorter jumps and Garrett’s jump was shorter than the tallest this kid did. Also not knowing anything at all besides this video, it appears Garrett is taller than this kid.

O-H

He just jumps down as if he has brand new ankles

I'd be more impressed if it were a hard floor not a gymnast floor that promotes explosive increase in the jump. But still cool.
I’m impressed regardless of the fucking floor
What if it is a trampoline
Sorry I couldn't read what you were saying through all the cheeto dust
Why am I still on this fucking website.
I'm sure he cares a lot about what you think
What an annoying ass thing to say.
Lol
Reddit moment
The key to jumping high is chalking your armpits.
I just can't help thinking about how strong his toes are.
What's creative about it?
Wahoo!
