Um, not really. I don't know what kind of skates you have ever used, but you don't "wind up" skate wheels. What he is doing at the beginning is getting his step right before he launches backward. Like I said, it's a controlled fall. The end with him stumbling is due to his aforementioned backward momentum, slick shoes and a slick wet surface. Also, if they were wheels, you wouldn't hear the scraping of shoe tread on the ground as he did this either. By you'r logic, when I do my foot glides (and I stumble), then I'm wearing wheels. There actually is an art to doing this right, and it's supposed to look like you're on wheels when done correctly; otherwise, it's not a glide. This is just an extremely exaggerated glide.

As a person who has a lot of footwork focus when I dance, I can explain this.
From a stand he leans forward and slings one leg back very quickly. While the momentum is still carrying him backwards, he has to immediately bring the back leg forward, and the front leg back to keep himself moving. From that point he is pretty much in a constant falling state where the foot coming forward catching himself since the other foot must be thrown back to maintain momentum. Notice his back foot is barely getting underneath in time while the other foot has already started to be flung out. His timing is just cray good. This is also why you see him stumble at the end. His foot-speed countered momentum stopped so he ended up falling forward from his counter balance.
Hope this helps the blown brains.

Definitely wheels...You can even see him winding them up at the start before suddenly taking off. And watch again, because his "stumble" at the end is not just his momentum, you can clearly see him skating. I'm surprised people cannot see it.


"There are none so blind as those who will not see." What you claim he is doing with just shoes is, literally, impossible. As i stated, my kids have these wheeled shoes. Never mind though, I give up trying to make you open your eyes. Oh, and btw, I have a few card tricks you will believe are magic too.

Get these pretty often. When I get them my toes want to point straight down, but that just makes it last longer.

What's really bad is I usually get them while Im sleeping. I'll feel it like a few seconds before it's full on pain and my leg wanting to keep my toe pointed down. Hurts more to move with it doing it. But I have to get my toes pulled up and high as they will go and hold them there until it stops.

Can take 5-10 minutes of just standing on the floor leaning forward against the wall so my toes are extended upward with my heels flat on the ground.

It usually comes on after I walk a lot, but like 2-3 days after the fact. Also not drinking enough water can sometimes cause it...and lack of vitamins or something can do it too. Think potassium is the one for muscle cramps, which I am mildly allergic to bananas and don't much care for them due as a result.

They happen enough that I know what's happening when it happens, but not enough to really track down the linking cause of it. Was horrible the first time I ever had one as a teen, felt like something was biting my leg with no idea how to stop it.

Government is the last group you want to run healthcare or anything else.

They can't even make a hammer for less that $700 bucks and you believe that government controlled healthcare is a good idea. Stop watching MSNBC and the rest of that lean forward ilk. Only fools believe that socialized government programs are good.

Our healthcare system, thought not perfect, is better than any other Country.

@bobknight33
The U.S. is the center of capitalism. We have mostly privately run health care.
And 16% of all the money we spend, more than all those eviiiil socialist! country, goes to healthcare.
You don't know what you're talking about.
You're just stringing together words you hear on Foxnews.

Let off gas and/or hit brake as the tracks hit the edge. Lean forward at same time...

So playing on a suspension bridge during a storm helps you perform the michael jackson "leaning forward" move?

Nah, it's funny cause most people are smart enough to know how to swing.
i.e. feet first

And not: leaning forward on spaghetti arms exposing maximum facial surface area to le ground

This guy would fit right in at the gym I go to - he doesn't even make the bottom quartile in terms of stupid.

At least you could get tired doing what he's doing. Heck, I think it'd be reasonably cardio intensive. When I first tried the similar machines where your feet also slide, I think I may have looked about the same as he does.

The dumbest thing I've seen was a guy using a weight machine that, in all fairness, was a bit complicated. Skipping over some details, it has a large, circular pad on the front that you lean over. Anyways, he was standing in front, where I guess you couldn't see the rest of the equipment, and rotating the pad around the bar. Kind of using it like a kung-fu dummy for downward slapping.

The more common one I see is people doing "Ima weigh myself" exercises. To do this, you grab a cable, and then lean forward or backward on it to lift the attached weight stack (make sure your arm is either fully extended or tucked in such a way that there's no actual employment of arm, back, or chest muscles). When you've leaned over as far as the cable will allow, let go of the cable. Repeat. If you're ambitious, up the weight stack until leaning on it no longer causes it to move. Remember to do some texting after, but do not move away from the machine.

I've seen 3 separate people do this exercise.

Look at 00:31-00:33, the coins just fall off of him by leaning forward. That's not how a magnet would react...especially one that could hold up a frying pan...

Riding, leaning forward like that? YES, PLEASE.

uhhh, make sure you get him leaning forward first

at about -2:39 when he leans forward and smiles after the sweater question is where i think he realizes something is up. then he goes with it.

He can lean forward just fine when he's seated.
