    I did one of those once. It's pretty much the hardest thing for me, personally. I salute you! <3

    would love to hear some pointers, sadly even as a gymnast I was never able to do a full pull up! I would love to accomplish it one day!

    The guy in the video is a bit of a dork who uses a lot of bias pseudoscience in his videos, but this video is a good reference point for negative pullups and pullups.
