First off, if you're going for realism, I'd change the sky colors and the perspective as well. It doesn't seem to match up with the rest of the scene.

As for the jumping off the roof thing, is it absolutely necessary for the shot to be flat on looking down like that? If you could cheat it and have it at a 3/4 angle or even from the side, you could just jump off a chair and film it at a high frame rate. It'll hurt when you land, but you should be able to easily mask that stuff out later and the shot should last long enough when it plays back at 30 or 24 fps. Little pain never hurt anybody, right?
