Weird But True

Watch A Man Set The Guinness World Record For Longest Front Flip

Miami may not be the home of the 2011 NBA champions, but it is now the home to the record for the world’s longest front flip.

The feat was accomplished by Hollywood stuntman Robert Souris, who, on his 13th attempt at the record, flipped 19 feet and six inches forward.

The historical feat isn’t the only fascinating occurrence in this video captured by the Sun-Sentinel. Look out for the confused and largely indifferent audience comprised of moms and young children, as well as the unpleasant image that Souris’ form-fitting bodysuit provides.
