But when the moment came and he started in the flip, he immediately knew that something had gone wrong.

“When I took off in the air and felt that I met my classmate, I thought,” Oh this can’t happen, “he says.

“I didn’t know the girl until two days before graduation – I met her at rehearsal,” he tells people exclusively. “After, when we went to sit, we laughed about it together. Immediately after laughed one of my friends about it in a group chat, and he was the first to publish it.”

“I didn’t think about it at first – I just assumed it would flop – and three hours later it went viral,” he adds.

Since the video took off, Robinson says he has been given a wave of negative comments, which has been tough, especially since most people do not know the whole story. Still, he says he does not feel pressured to answer.

“When I look back, I still stand backflip because I personally think this is as good results, if not better than if I hadn’t,” he says. “And not to blame her, of course it is just like my fault, but if she didn’t go forward I would have landed it.”

He adds, “I’ve talked to the girl briefly to check her out and make sure she’s okay.”
