As I recall, one astronaut DID 'take a flying leap' at one point while
walking on the moon, and regretted it the second he took off.  He forgot
about all the weight on his back, and DID start to do a SLOW backflip,
and landed (partially)  on his backback.  
The big thing that went through his mind was,"
Holy Shit! If I land on the backpack and BREAK something, I'm fucked..."

I paraphrase, of course.  But I recall reading this somewhere.  Those suits
are a bitch to move around in BTW.  I tried on just the GLOVES in my old
lab at Grumman, and it is VERY difficult to anything...
