I've always felt that if I were 5'11" rather than 5'6" (with proportional arm length) I'd have been more than able to dunk. As it was, without the "springs" of Spud Webb I was able to grab the rim without the ball.

Curiously, my "vertical" was a result of playing volleyball much of my adult life. I could actually block and spike on occasion.

Bouncing the ball off the floor or backboard, spinning like a top or swinging the ball between my legs before a stuff would be a whole different reindeer ...

I could really get up in high school and college... did a few 180 and windmill dunks here and there during that time... nothing like this, but yeah

now I can barely touch rim last I tried... and sure as hell can't do anything special while doing so... oh well, never liked basketbal that much anyway.

And he wins the College Slam Dunk Contest, I don't know how accurate the "jump meter" is, but the one I seen measured him at 45inches off the ground

EDIT: I have no idea how i missed the post right above me, but it's just double the publicity for him.
