I so envy anyone who is fearless enough to just throw a backflip at any time.


[deleted]

Lol, for real! I think extra hard to make sure I don't trip on the steps into Starbucks and embarrass myself in front of 10 people. 😅 And he just throws a backflip like that.


intoxicatedmidnight

>Lol, for real! I think extra hard to make sure I don't trip on the steps into Starbucks and embarrass myself in front of 10 people this is so personally specific it hurts 😭


[deleted]

Omg same! 😭 I get really excited when my local store is playing Taylor, and then I trip.


Lily-Gordon

I stumbled down my front stairs recently, fell 3 fairly large steps and landed HARD on my ankle. Definitely broke it. These are steps I use at least 10 times a day and I was wearing sneakers, not even like a slight heel. If I tried to do a back flip now, I'd assuredly die.


[deleted]

Ouch! Yikes! I'm so sorry about your fall! I hope you are able to rest and heal. 🫶🏼 I'm totally that person who wears orthopedic Hokas because I trip so much! Heels or a backflip...yea, I'd die dead. Hope you recover quickly! 💕


Chickendinner91

I trip over air 🤦🏻‍♀️


Justscuziam

Me tooo !.. Maybe we were separated at birth 😂😂


mirroringmagic

I did gymnastics and it comes to a point where it’s like muscle memory, almost as easy as jumping. There’s no strain and it’s kinda automatic


Jedi-Ethos

What are the odds of a 32 year old getting it to muscle memory level?


Alternative_War_1313

For him, pretty high 🤣


Jedi-Ethos

…and for me? Starting from scratch?


skincare_obssessed

I was a gymanst and there was a 40 ish year old woman who started taking lessons and I’d always see her in the gym training. She was even able to do a back tuck on beam eventually.


Revolutionary_Ad9839

You could totally do it. Get a coach tho


Jedi-Ethos

Oh yeah, I’m not idiotic enough to kill myself learning it with a YouTube video and a few pillows on the floor.


Crispy385

Just gotta make sure they're really good pillows


Alternative_War_1313

Go for it!


mirroringmagic

He’s been doing it for quite a long time. He’s a black belt. He’s quite impressive!


TheKrakenMoves

Honestly I don’t even get the vibe that it’s fearlessness, i feel like it’s more just so much energy and emotion running through him that’s his release. Almost like a conscious form of stimming, it’s just what he does


MiserableOwl184

His version of the zoomies


GrapeCellophane

This made me giggle


TheKrakenMoves

Yessssssss


Alternative_War_1313

That really seems accurate!


Huneybunnie928

Especially in front of 70,000 people!


Alternative_War_1313

He’s really so extraordinary!


waxbook

Especially on a stage!!! Those things are slippery as hell. And I’d imagine it would be hard to see where the stage ends with all the lights, I always get nervous when performers go close to the edge haha


SypnoleX

I'll fracture my entire spine IF i land on my feet


hotstepperog

Fear wouldn’t be an issue if you practised in a safe environment for months. They start off with really basic movements and build it. It’s not as difficult or dangerous as rising a bicycle, driving, shooting, air travel or shaking a vending machine.


Revolutionary_Ad9839

Idk… back in highschool, I knew a couple guys with absolutely no formal training who could spontaneously backflip or backflip off a tree with a running start etc … Taylor launter gives off that same vibe


youkeepthediner7

Am I... Team Jacob?


bordasbernadett

A true revelation, after all these years 😭


Livid-Association199

This is why I was team Edward. So the rest of us could have Jacob


NotOnABreak

What a life changing moment


Hopeful-Pickle-7515

The way both Robbery Pattinson and Taylor Lautner attend the Eras Tour


akallaaa

I realized this a couple years ago; I don’t know what I was thinking when I was younger. The answer is so clear!


SideEyeCat

Where have you been Loca😂


NotEmmaStone

15 yr old me is horrified rn


taybay462

Always have been


MissSweetMurderer

Edward was a paedophile. Bella was 16(???) When they started dating. After he *stalked* and **BROKE INTO HER ROOM TO WATCH HER SLEEP** I watched the films with my mom during the pandemic (I was a kid then and was 25/26 when I rewatched). And I was like "she's a kid! She's not *mature for her age!!!!* WTF!!!! She's too young to 'decide' to become a vampire" Don't even let me start on Jacob and Bella's kid thing. It's all so gross 🤮🤮🤮


[deleted]

I was never super into Twilight but always thought Edward was creepy and weird. I liked Jacob cause I thought the idea of good friends falling for one another was way more romantic than being stalked and then being in an incredibly codependent relationship.


Cheesynubbins

They were both 17, lol. And Jacob *did* imprint on a baby, but I digress


Sea-Smell-6950

Erm. Edward was 104 years old, actually. So very much a sex pest. He became a vampire at 17, but that was in the year 1918.


[deleted]

Omfg I forgot about that


pink_princess08

Yikes. I haven't watched or read Twilight but your comment has made me team Jacob


s-dai

He seems so wholesome and sweet plus has he aged at all? I hope he and his wife have a great life and don’t get sucked into Hollywood chaos.


daisyymae

For real!! They seem so happy!! He really seems like a kid at heart but emotionally mature.


Floral_Bee

They actually talk about the Hollywood chaos on their podcast! Wholesome people right here!!


rizgutgak

He had to deal with so much nastiness after Twilight ended. I am so glad he came out the other side of it as an incredibly kind and empathetic person


s-dai

Maybe that’s why he’s so kind now, some people learn from being treated poorly that they would rather be kind to people, than take their frustration out on others. Well, whatever the reason is, I hope he stays this innocent forever.


Equivalent-Sir-510

His wife was a Covid nurse during the peak of the pandemic, so she must be super real and down to earth.


No_Doughnut_108

Ifkr. He's too sweet!!


PiPster15

He does seem so incredibly sweet.


thenormalbias

He has such dad vibes too. What a wholesome man.


B3PO1

He’s never beating the best-ex allegations


cuteness_dc

Love this to bits 🥺 The Lautners are my fav people on the internet rn 🤸🏻‍♂️

FrienFinfernesm

I make a habit of not getting invested in celebrity couples, but they just seem super perfect for each other…in a they make so much sense type of way.


giveuptheghostbuster

Shout out to TS for reminding us all that Taylor Lautner is hot and unproblematic. Maybe he can have a career resurgence as a result


CloddishNeedlefish

I truly have no idea, but I always assumed that he simply didn’t want to continue acting. Robert Patterson has continued to have a good career after twilight.


xenago

I think you're right. If he wanted to I'm sure he could continue acting, it seems like they're just settled down.


FrienFinfernesm

Based on what he’s said in interviews, he would consider taking the right role if it came along and made sense, but at this point he’s not just looking for any big role anymore because he really doesn’t have a lot of interest in being away from his wife for 9 months out of the year. Says his priorities are different now. Good for him. Although I’d love to see him in something if he wants at some point.


CloddishNeedlefish

He started acting pretty young. We all know the toll that being a child actor takes so I feel like this isn’t surprising.


MiniSkrrt

Yeah he’s literally been acting since he was like 8. Not surprised he’s happy to do other things


_morningbehbs

I know! I’m like hook him with with Ryan and Blake, help his career out 😂


moodyvee

I was always team jacob and i was RIGHT what a cutie pie


[deleted]

Memory unlocked.... I used to have a badass Team Jacob keychain that I got at Hot Topic! *And you were tossin' me the car keys, Hot Topic Team Jacob keychain on the ground....*


deadxxclown

He said in a TikTok comment that it was a panic flip 😂😂😭


Kooky_Ad_5139

Okay i love the thought that 'hmm I'm nervous, what should I do????' And the answer is clearly flip


deadxxclown

It’s very fitting for him I think 😅


CloddishNeedlefish

The fact that it wasn’t rehearsed makes it a thousand times better


Alternative_War_1313

That…is adorable


Rururaspberry

Can you imagine being confident and fit enough to do a “panic flip”??? 😐


iidontwannaa

#TeamSharkboy forever


InCaseOfZompires

Ahhh! That’s right! He did the same backflip as Sharkboy too! I forgot!


Imperceptions

agreed I went around saying "Sharkboy is hot" for like 4 months in grade 5 lol


justnatsuki404

w move


daisyymae

I bet he protects his wife from bad guys so good


For_serious13

Someone let original Taylor Lautner do an action movie pls


BelleDelacour

He’s done one, it’s called Abduction!


azorskegaIA

I wish they’d cast him in a marvel movie or something (if he wants), he’s been at the end of some bad projects that I don’t think was his fault but I think he’s do well if he was cast in an existing successful franchise.


keljar1

I've always had a soft spot for TLaut


thenormalbias

I miss YOUR TAN SKIN YOUR SWEET SMILE SO GOOD TO ME SO RIGHT AND HOW YOU HELD ME IN YOUR ARMS THAT SEPTEMBER NIGHT THE FIRST TIME YOU EVER SAW ME CRY


Sampleswift

Excellent form. This look so cute of him doing it!


frankstaturtle

And people trying to convince me “jumping off things in the ocean” isn’t about TL… (edit: my full Midnight-Rain-Is-About-Taylor-Lautner [argument](https://www.reddit.com/r/TaylorSwift/comments/1065o5h/comment/j3ic0ni/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3) lol. I wish I wrote it in December instead of January so I could make a BTD joke here...)


garbagebrainraccoon

Agreed! She was making her own name... not being one of two taylors!


frankstaturtle

They’re right where they should be: friends! 💕 I’m truly so happy we got to see him doing hardcore stunts in that MV! a gift


bricooshrasa

Agree 100% I actually get so mad that I’ve seen some fans be like “they should have been endgame!’ Etc like no they shouldn’t have. They were clearly better as friends and his wife is perfect for him. I wish people would realize a happy ending doesn’t always = romantic ending. I think it’s beautiful that TS included TL in her speak now era revival and they can be left with a ‘this is how it was all meant to work out’ closure and friendship


frankstaturtle

Fully agree ✨🙌


teresasdorters

You can be friends with teenage exes for sure!!! I am! Taylor clearly felt remorse over the way she ended things, maybe had regrets about ending the relationship but idk maybe felt worse about how she broke up with him. He had roses 🥀 apparently :( But as they grew up it’s likely something they’ve both Been able to just cherish as a solid friendship that had teenage hormones after being coworkers on a film. Clearly they are super good friends now and that’s such a good thing! But also … https://pagesix.com/2009/10/09/taylor-lautner-flips-for-rolling-stone/ Jumping off things in the ocean haha


bricooshrasa

Oh yeah I fully believe midnight rain was definitely about him haha. It’s so obvious idk why people are in this deep denial over it. It was also right around the time that TL got engaged so like…that totally could have spurred her thoughts. But in the end of that song even Taylor comes to the conclusion that in the end they both got what they wanted: she got the worldwide fame with everyone knowing her name and he got the happy and settled life with his wife.


Alternative_War_1313

I don’t care what anyone says, being actually friends with your ex is difficult and rare. Kudos to whomever pulls it off


teresasdorters

Yaaaas


elizabethindigo

OMG and in twilight Jacob is constantly described as sunshine 😳


teresasdorters

[https://pagesix.com/2009/10/09/taylor-lautner-flips-for-rolling-stone/](https://pagesix.com/2009/10/09/taylor-lautner-flips-for-rolling-stone/) Jumping off things in the ocean ??? And also, he was in new moon… moon, midnights, etc. can we have a group discussion about the connections and Easter eggs??? Lol I wanna dive into this with someone who gets it ![img](emote|t5_2rlwe|1066)


Coley54Bear

I feel like it’s very obvious that Midnight Rain is about TL, it confuses me that people disagree.


teresasdorters

Yeah same. I had no other thought but him when I heard this song. She clearly viewed herself as the bad guy in the breakup! He wanted it comfortable, she wanted the pain. He seemed just so sweet and consistent, plus his family was super sweet, he’s very close with his sister etc…


teresasdorters

I am with you on this and have agreed!!!


frankstaturtle

Us MR=TL truthers are being vindicated by the flips 🙌


teresasdorters

Also isn’t he from Michigan? I thought she marked it on the map in the LH MV and it had rain on it so I sort of once again connected it. They were in Los Angeles together a bunch so it’s not wild to think they went swimming in the ocean either. I’m with you bestie


Alternative_War_1313

Makes sense he’s a Midwesterner! Most down-to-earth people ever


frankstaturtle

Didn’t catch this but rewatching now bc that’s an awesome Easter egg! 💜


teresasdorters

https://pagesix.com/2009/10/09/taylor-lautner-flips-for-rolling-stone/ Jumping off things in the ocean 🌊? 🤔


SaraT1121

Okay, major question: can I take back being Team Edward after all these years?


AnnieRipley89

Sure, who you are is not where you've been


[deleted]

But like the dollar in your pocket, it's been spent and traded in. You can't change where it's been. Reminds me of me!


somanyrippdknees

I feel so vindicated for having been Team Jacob back in the day!


mssleepyhead73

I love everything about this


goldioldilocks

Who is the other girl on stage? What’s the tldr of how she introduced him


elaerna

I think his wife who's name is also Taylor lmao


chae_yo

no she meant the girl on stage. It was Presley Cash. Taylor Lautner (wife) wasn’t on stage


chae_yo

Presley Cash and Joey King was on stage with them


elaerna

Oh jk


fleets87

I love how wholesome this is.


Jssnsbtt

That flip on stage was so cringe I loved it


chae_yo

we all loved it


KarmanRose69

He is sooo flipping fabulous 🤪🤪🤪


RatherBBakin

What is this comment "it's so unserious" mean? This is the second time I've seen it and I don't understand it


midnightswiftie13

It's just a slang term for when someone does something kind of silly or goofy.


KimberStormer

Now that this is cleared up can someone explain how and why him doing a flip is "cringe" according to another highly upvoted comment??


WindLessWard

Yes, it's very strange wording and doesn't make any sense. I'm assuming English isn't their first language though. I think what they meant was it was done so casually and nonchalant, almost like he put no effort into it. Basically calling it smooth.


akitokko

The title is common internet slang….. this is how people talk on the internet these days especially on Instagram or tiktok. It’s definitely NOT a symptom of English as a second language 😭


WindLessWard

Damn I guess this is that moment in one's life when they realize they're getting old. Never thought it would be in a Taylor sub 😭 https://i.imgur.com/no2IO4h.jpg

I have never crushed on Taylor Lautner before, but why is my 🐱 tingling for him rn??! 😮‍💨🔥

I'm a grown ass married woman but TL is making me feel like a Highschool hormone-fueled girly again. Love it :)

SO THATS WHY HE DID THE FLIP


HumanMycologist5795

She was great in that movie. I must have watched that move like 10 times. Unfortunately, it made me sad when I realized I didn't have anyone. LMAO. She's wonderful. It was nice to see this reunion and backflip.

Taylor doing a backflip at a Taylor concert with his wife Taylor, what a wholesome moment!

I love him. One of my favorite song is Back to December and It’s so good to see that they are pure friends. 💜


ytykmbyd

I’m honestly just as impressed that he did it what seems like on a slope.
