How Many Back flips Can You Do On A Pogo Stick? [VIDEO]

Been on a Pogo Stick lately?  Ever do a back flip?  This guy can.  He'll go for the record in the upcoming video.

I never could make much sense out of a Pogo Stick.  Acrobatic moves escaped me and it always seemed like more work than fun.

These days they have new fangled pogo sticks.  Super springs with super jumping ability.  It''s turned into quite the obsession for some.  It looks rather dangerous.

Here's a video of a guy attempting to set the back flip record on a pogo stick.  He survived the attempt.
