Paolo Posted May 27, 2013 Share Posted May 27, 2013 Watched this video and I was wondering if it was fake because of the awkward hand placement for his human flag and the thickness of the pole, especially his "jump" to human flag. Thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jon Douglas Posted May 27, 2013 Share Posted May 27, 2013 I'd love for that jump to flag to be real. Opens the way for flag climbs between two poles... awesome Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian Li Posted May 27, 2013 Share Posted May 27, 2013 I think it's fake, but I think it's possible to jump into a human flag if someone is very proficient with it and has practiced jumping into it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian Li Posted May 27, 2013 Share Posted May 27, 2013 Oh I just remembered that Handbalancer had shown a video of his friend that has jumped into a human flag variation (sideways back lever). I can't find the link anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
