For example, I once saw a man throw his hat down in anger. He didn't stomp on it which was kind of a let down.

You might be a ninja!

I had a similar experience (at a similar age but only one flip) and instead of a door, I stopped short to avoid an unexpected car and did an involuntary front flip over the handlebars of a mountain bike with the handlebars still in my hands. After I landed on my feet, the bike swung over my head (through the force of its inertia, I’m guessing) and landed on the back tire in front of me in a full wheelie position while I stood behind it. The driver just looked at me with her mouth wide open in shock. We had a laugh and continued about our days unharmed but shoook. I can’t even believe I did that. I certainly wouldn’t be able to do that if I tried.

Yeah, I'm sure that, without training, trying to do something like that on purpose, is bound to have you fail spectacularly.

In my case, i would probably jump too soon, before the door opens.
