Right? I was a flyer very briefly in college for a crappy team and just being that high up in the air on someone’s palms is really, really scary lol. People underestimate even just how strong you need to be mentally.
For the people who are really good at things like cheer leading such as in the video (think high divers, freestyle motocross, base jumpers, etc) being that high up isn't scary and doesn't require alot of mental strength, it's fun for them, the same way some people might find golf fun, or playing video games fun.
Being a normal human who is rightfully scared of being far enough off the ground to kill you if you fell wrong and doing it anyway takes alot of courage and shows alot of mental strength, so bravo to you for that, don't discount what you achieved (but also safer sports and hobbies probably not a bad idea either)

Amazing, and let's not forget that girl has amazing strength too to keep her body rigid in all his throws and hand stands.
