Cartoons in real life...or learning that nagging feeling of shame.

Ok, remember back in the day, when cartoons and video games had characters that did flips every time they jumped? And it didn't seem unrealistic at all? Of course, as you grew up, it did seem a bit odd or even ridiculous. After all, when I want to go up the stairs, I always front flip up them. Or not. Well, apparently, I was wrong. You should be front flipping up them.
