Not sure which you think is impossible. The double back jump between fairly close barrels?

The double jump to the left. The second one that jumped the blue barrel I didn't think was possible that close to it.

Nice escape!  That calls for a Ric Flair "woooooo!"

That's only possible if you do two double back jumps, and you do it with precise positioning and timing.  Definitely a very hard move to pull off.  I would just recommend jumping both barrels at the same time, and most of the time that's what people do because it's much easier to pull off.

Yeah, what Homer said, but you can get forced if you’re running and a barrel auto steers right behind the one you need to backjump and turning around could kill you.

Watching it at 0.25x speed makes me LOL but it does show you how far the barrels can get into you when you backjump.
