10 Video Game Abilities That Would Kick Ass In Real Life
6. Double Jumping
The Ability: One of the most widely-used abilities in the platforming genre, double jumping is exactly what it says on the tin: it allows you to jump once, and then to quickly jump again, defying the laws of physics and flying even higher the second time. It is largely used for reaching otherwise unreachable areas in platformers, and without it, these games would be a lot less exciting. In Real Life: For starters, it'd be hilarious to become an Olympic champion at high jump and long jump, but this one would be a lot of fun just for goofing around at home as well. It'd make parkour a lot more interesting, that's for sure, and would be great to show off to your friends. This is the one power on this list above all others that really should end up in the hands of a kid rather than an adult.
