Anyone else?
Find it impossible to use the bottom few steps of any staircase in favour of leaping down the last wee bit?

Yes.
The proof is in the cracked tiles at one spot at the bottom of the stairs.
Though, I tend to leap from a bit higher than a few steps. Like the whole flight.

My brother
habitually does this. So much so that last year he got rather . . . over-enthusiastic on the dismount and banged his head hard on the ceiling, leaving him with mild concussion.

He's 29.

Oh yes.
Especially at work. I rated myself on number of steps skipped, air time, style of landing, noise of landing, and number of staff startled by my unexpected drop into the warehouse.

Jealousy
I envy you... I have steep stairs and a 'ledge' at head height at the bottom of the stairs. I can't jump off the last steps without braining myself.
