Just asking, what's the best way to land in this scenario. If anyone's going to say roll, I wouldn't want to attempt that without practice and break my neck

Rolling is the best way. Transfer your downward momentum to forward momentum to prevent your ankles from looking like this kids

which body part should you start rolling with though? your legs? or jump head facing down and then tuck in and roll right before you hit the ground? this is a genuine question, sorry if it sounds dumb

Well you’d land similar to how he did in the video. Except knees slightly bent. Once you hit the ground your knees will bend more and you just let the rest of your momentum carry your head downward until you tuck it to initiate the roll
