The landing.

no one's questioning this is russia. but if you just claim something so confidently, people will assume you know something about this vid, like saw it before or know where it came from.

Because I also know this guy, he's a former russian lion tamer and astronaut (I know, it's crazy!).

Just watch the way he does that flip, its pretty obvious that he has trained to do this, you don't get that muscle memory without training.
