Wait. You haven't seen The Matrix? It's a modern sci-fi classic and now it's also 20 years old. Well, you should watch it. Here's the basic idea—some dude (Neo) finds out he's been living in a computer program. Since his world isn't "real,” he is able to do some superhuman things—like dodge bullets and jump from one building to the next.

Yes, this building jump is what I want to look at. It's one of the first real tests for Neo as he learns to manipulate this computer world. The goal is to run and jump from the top of one very tall building to the next building. Morpheus starts off to show Neo how to do it and makes it easily. Neo crashes. Good thing it's not real life.
