Does anyone know if anyone has ever done a double jump. It is scientificly proven that it is physicaly, mentally, and humanly possible to do it. But i am just wondering if anyone has ever been able to do it.

A geuine double jump is humanly impossible. What we can do though is ride crouch and extend. This technique is more on the dance end of the continuum (I like to think of dance and fighting as overlapping pieces on a long line). I say it is more on the dance end because I learned it from cheerleaders. They do some stuff that resmbles the double jump of kung fu films. What ride crouch and extend means here is to ride the force of your jump upwards. Once you reach the apex crouch. Then extend into your move, this part should be really explosive. It is pretty hard to do the crouch part on solid ground. If you were interested in training "double jumps" for stage fighting or something your best bet would be to try out moves like the back-tuck or ride and twist on a trampoline.
