During World War II, Steve Rogers volunteered to receive the experimental Super-Soldier Serum. Enhanced to the pinnacle of human physical potential and armed with an unbreakable shield, he became Captain America. After a failed mission left him encased in ice for decades, he was found and revived by the Avengers, later joining their ranks and eventually becoming the team's leader.
He's been able to jump up and grab the roofline of a two story building. That's typically around 24 feet give or take. As far as jumping up and landing on his feet, its probably 15-18 feet.
Yeah he's done Spiderman level jumps and even building falls. But I wouldn't expect less from the peak of human potential.
Hand books tend to short change him with a simple label "peak human". But the stories show him to be the exception. He is very similar to Slade Deathstroke in this regard.
@psychojack: @alexander505: sounds about right... but toad has the same limits in jumping (officially) and his legs are superior to caps by a large margin
