Well, it implies a muppet should be associated with N. Klein, which would be cruel to the muppet. Yes, even Sam.

Wow, this was late.

At about 1.05, I think she does some kind of invisible, magic thing where she somehow converts all that forward momentum into upward momentum and it's just insane

I think the part that doesn't seem intuitive at first glance, especially at slow-mo when you lose some sense of the momentum, is that when she plants for that jump she actually has her feet in front of her, not underneath her body.

If you run full speed, then put your feet directly under your weight and jump, you'll get up in the air- but you'll also preserve all of the forward momentum you had (think the long jump in track and field). If you get your feet out in front of you when you plant for your jump, then you stop that forward momentum and actually convert some of it into additional vertical height. The term for it is "blocking" and it works on solid ground too but I imagine the gymnastics floor amplifies the effect and lets you be even more aggressive with it

I've heard a dumb brit pronounce the surname "Wolf" and "woof". Not defending it, but to some people it rhymes.

That's actually what I was guessing was happening! - her foot placement at that point seemed to be the thing that was driving her upward momentum.

I don't know what kind crazy accent you have, but wolf and oaf are much, much closer than wolf and oof.
