Man does a backflip and lands in a pair of trousers

Well, this is impressive.

GETTING DRESSED IN the morning will feel incredibly boring after seeing this.

Gymnast Raymond Butler came up with this novel way to get into a pair of trousers at his gym and enlisted the help of two friends in order to do it.

He does a cartwheel and a flip on the mat before launching into a double backflip in the air – and landing right into the trousers.

Understandably, he and his friends are thrilled that he managed to do it, and their reactions are very sweet.

    Landing into a pair of skinny jeans would be more impressive…

    A one word comment just dripping with sarcasm.

    There was 3 articles I have seen recently just copied and pasted from Sky news, word for word. Nothing new from the Journal.
