![Professor 3v3 with 5'4" World's SHORTEST Dunker [50+ INCH VERTICAL]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/CV33lkkCLTA/mqdefault.jpg)
I actually jump 56”, the only thing I need is my trampoline
I need to be catapulted, and pray for a soft landing! OMG!!!!
Hey my brother hope ur keeping safe n trusting our Father during these times n I wanted to know what exercise to apply for that 56 inches ☝🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾💪🤝💯
Legend.
And I need 2 trampolines and to be 2 feet taller
🤣🤣
I did 54 inches though. However I must admit I can't do it again, Jumping from the first floor isn't a good idea I must say.
Dude, this the most underrated comment I'd ever seen lol
most indubitably sir I agree 🧐 scapular elevation

Dont be shy tell Us the truth
His vertical so high that he took fall damage.

Lol
I remember in the 90s I had a 36 inch vert and people thought that was godlike lol
It still is
Micheal Jordan played in the 90s and he had a 45 inch vert
Stop your lying mouth
That is still amazing and my friends are very impressed with my 32 inches.
I have a 36 now, and I be thinking I'm doing something... 52 is insane!
I jumped a 96" but the landing broke my leg so I'm unable to replicate this again.

lmao same here but i have a 106'' though i got into a car accident and cant jump anymore
“He jumped so high I developed a Southern accent” 😂
Did he eat the spring-spring fruit?
😂 elite
One Piece!?!?!?
one piece, nice. and if u eat the gomu- gomu fruit u would be at like 200 inches

Man of culture
Are you kidding me?! A fifty two inch vert... that is the highest I’ve ever heard of someone jumping. Great stuff.
Guy Dupuy has 60 inch vert.
Action Cameras pro fr? I know he’s a freak of nature but 60 is fucking insane
Guy Dupuy is arguably one of the greatest dunkers of all time. He’s got BOUNCE. But I know for a fact that his vertical is no more than 50 inches. Anyone with a claimed 60 inch vert is a lie as of now.
@@tylercloward9319 Guy Dupuy is never recorded doing vertec test and when he dunks he do not need his max jump.
@@cartervirsik902 No, Guy's vertical is 56 inches. 60 is crazy.

Clyde the Glide #top5SG&top10dunkerever I wonder what the vertical of guys like Zach Lavine, Aaron Gordon and Derrick Jones would be if they solely trained and put all their time on jumping instead of all of basketball as a whole.
but no, you're stuck wearing those damn slippers
mine was 32" when we did fitness testing in 7th grade 1999 but that was off 1 step. got my name up on the wall.

*"WIRED : Why it's almost impossible to jump higher than 50 inches"*
This video : *I've just ended that video's whole career.*
I mean realistically even with his shoulders unpacked he's still extending his body a lot longer then what his recorded standing reach is. So it's probably in the 48-50 inch vert range
@@joaquinm2640 reason? Its already proven.
They meant a standing jump, not a max vertical jump
It is virtually impossible,nobody ever officially measured over 50,this isnt an official test
The wired video was box jumps... So with a 50 inch vert you'd at least be able to do 60-70 inches (this channel even shows him jumping over a 66 inch hurdle)
Years ago in '79, I was a 17-year-old high school senior, 6-3 with a 33-inch vertical and back then, that was something in my neck of the woods. Walked around with ankle weights all day to help me get there. David Thompson was my favorite player. Later that year in Navy boot camp my company had about 40-50 kids in it, mostly from the inner city. The irony is in the boot camp Olympics (I guess that's what they called it back then), I represented my squad in the standing broad jump. The brothers loved it. Said they'd never seen a white guy jump like that. Those military years playing basketball all over the globe were tough times but fun times. I balled against international players long before their reputations finally made it stateside. Anyways...the training and technology available today to help these kids reach unprecedented levels of athleticism is off the charts. Good for them and kudos for you guys helping 'em to get there. It's tough doing it alone.
Saw David Thompson in high school, he performed his greatest leaps in high school, no question about it.
According to kids from his school, he did lots of one legged squats standing on a elevated surface with around 115 pounds. Lots of reps. World class long jumpers also train this way.
I always believed that Larry Brown tried to throttle down his leaps to what was needed to accomplish the job, concerned about the cumulative effect of those landings.
When I saw him play as a pro he never attempted go to the heights he routinely reached as a prep or freshman at NC State. It seemed that way to me. He injured his knee during off-season training and never seemed quite the same afterwards. To me, anyways.
@@rickharris4513 unfortunately what killed his career was when he fell down the steps at that NYC nightclub. Tore his knee up and you're right he was never the same.
@@Maxx61 who are u can i search u up
Damn after all those attempts he just jumps higher and higher that's some serious strength stamina. His whole head and shoulders where above and at the rim. Unbelievable!!
Dam, that's a crazy improvement. Once you're at 45 inches you don't usually think you will improve from there (maybe like 2 inches, but 7 more?!?). But, I guess this is where genetics play a role. Paul do you know how he trained since the last time you saw him till recent testing day? I would love to know how one can improve from elite to next level elite. 52 inches, wow. It blew me away.
Hobé I thought it's literally impossible to get higher than 50
I would say the 45 inch is genetics at play and then the added 7 inches to 52 is pure hard work
@@clydetheglidetop5sgtop10du7 Olympic high jumpers max verts are like 50 and more
@@nstratford9073 i would say 45 was hard work and the plus seven was gens
Wtf 45 foot genetics i'd say max good genetics can be maybe 30 or 35 If more than that would be scary
Congrats Jamal! That's really impressive! Please be careful - don't get hurt using all that levitation! I hope you maximize your entire game.
And I thought I could jump high with my 30 in vert😂. This mans a diff breed💯
If he can shoot 3s, he'll be steph curry with a 52 inch vertical
Curry can jump very high but his arms are too short so he cant dunk ez
Curry has a 35½ inch vertical
Yall don't get the joke
@@K1ngTrxshPvP pretty sure he can dunk

I can jump 52 centimeters high.
I'm 14 and I can jump 61 centimetres high.😃
@@lazarpetrovic240 thats hothing
It’s inches and 52 inches is 132cm
@Caleb Bueckert Since you flexing, I'm 16 and can jump 81 cm. I barely ever train.
I’m 13 and I never measured my vert. I’m 5’ 6” 130lbs and I can almost touch a 9 foot
Yup that’s insane . Good work . I’m wondering wth did he do to get the extra 7inc from already a crazy high 45 in Vert ??! Can u post that info ?
so explosive with the takeoff his knees pop straight at light speed when he jumps that kinda vertical is beyond incredible
Running vertical jump: This refers to a vertical jump after a run up: the last step of the run is used to launch into the jump. This may help to add additional energy to the jump and improve on the standing vertical jump result.
In general, the standing vertical jump is the one that is used as an official measurement for athletes
That is incredible definitely a true 52 but are you gonna record his new attempts
Hinata Shoyo: Finally a worthy opponent
Shoyo's vertical is 4"8
Kagami have a better vertical
Hoshiumi jumps higher than hinata which can mean that hoshiumi is even better than this :)
@@clouds000 currently they have the same vertical lol
Hoshiumi is taller by a cm so his vertical reach is a cm taller than Hinata.
Hinata- 350 cm
Hoshi- 351 cm
Weak asf I got 10 feet just by doing a pushup
00:24 LMFAOOOO
LOOOOOOOOOOLLLLLLLLLLLL
@Josh Bragdon LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL
Calm down
Wasn’t that funny
1:05 You know you can jump when the equipment isn't tall enough...
Interesting how low the reach is on some of these guys. I'm 6'1.5" to 6'2" and I can just touch the ceiling in most homes where the standard height is 8 ft or 96 inches. While my wingspan is longer than my height by 2-3 inches, my arms aren't that long. Tells you that a lot of these guys are inflating their verticals by minimizing their reach on these tests.
da man or their arms aren’t as long as yours. Not everyone is the same, standing reach can change drastically between different people.
It is a bit sus, when guys who are above 6'4" and have a 6'8" wingspan or more, don't even have a 98 inch reach. I am also around 6'1.5" tall with a 6'3" wingspan and 96 inch reach, so these dudes are either cheating or have their shoulders below their belly button.
I'm 6'3.5 and only touch 7"10, I'm a ducking t rex
@@DuckHunterGaming t-rex tiny weeny hand
I agree - I'm 6' tall and can standing touch 96". My 6'3" buddy can put his hand flat on an 8' ceiling. There's no doubt this guy can jump - but the vertical is enhanced by the low reach.
Who else feels like you can jump really high but when you try you cant jump for shit.. 😭
I wish we had the knowledge back in the day when I played. Players are jumping soo much higher now a days.
Information
They arent,jumpers are born,not made but what your seeing here are these professional dunkers who concentrate on just that.
Forget about elbow in the rim dunks we're talkin about shoulder and chest in from now on!
He can jump in the net.
😂😂😂
@@illronico7026 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Thank you for explaining how the vertical is measured with its variables.
My highest recorded vertical was 40 inches in high school. Too bad the internet wasn’t a thing back then so I don’t have any footage of it.
Ayo this is flightreacts in disguise
This isn't about you
nice man
luna r/whoooooosh
@@easterlake its a comment section anybody can type whatever they damn well please
0:17 He looked at his vert and was like “ah yes. That’s pleasing to see”
Yo in my personal opinion is that, it doesn't matter if there are errors in this measurements or what his vert is.
The thing is that, Paul can get your vert more even if you already have elite number.
thats absolutely amazing to watch, my highest when I was young was 40". Back then we measured it by no step, just literally standing two foot jump up. If able to do it like in this vid I know I got a bit higher, but back in the 90's we didnt have all this stuff. I was 6'0 and could using a sticker on my middle finger stick it to the top of the backboard square.
How high did your feet get like knee height?
This man really be drinking jump potions from Minecraft
Imagine this man playing volleyball 😳
Fr
I wish T-Dubb had measured his vertical jump officially during his prime.
At 5'9", he had such INSANE natural bounce and could easily get the top of his head at the rim level, if not a little bit over.
Would have been great to test him out.
Impressive! Crazy hang time!!!!
Though Sotomayor high jumped a WR over 8 ft (over 96 inches). That is the bar was UNDERNEATH him when passing, so add another 2-3 feet.....
I saw someone estimate Sotomayor's vert at 49 by analyzing his high jump technique, but I don't think it was ever tested
Sotomayer would have nowhere near 49,highjump is a very specific skill using the fosbury flop.
That was beasty asf...love what you doing on your channel bro...love the positivity... keep up the good work 💯
i’m 6’0 at 16 years old and haven’t play basketball for 2-3 years and touched the rim on a 10ft hoop for the first time this week 😂
The inconsistency with wingspan and standing reach is caused by differing shoulder to shoulder width. That shoulder to shoulder distance is used when measuring wingspan but not standing reach.
The hands-free head swipe method on the vertec can't be cheated. Daniel Kabeya hit 50" inches, so he's the record holder. This dude needs to use the same method. Maybe he'll swipe it at 51" or 52" and give Kabeya a run for his money. Until then, Kabeya is the world record holder IMO.
Finally, someone who knows their stuff. Couldn't agree more. No cheat code on Kabeya test
I would say all the olympic high jumpers would have at least a 50 inch vert. In fact I think Javier Sotomayor who went over an 8 feet bar(World record) has a 58 inch vert.
yes...it's pretty rock solid to measure the top of a person's head to the top of their head when their up in the air.
@@icyboy771z it's more technique. Sotomayor is 6'6" and probably had a vert in the high 40s
@@Hasan9t He jumped over an 8 foot bar...his 6'6 like you said. Logically you have to have half your body over the bar to clear it. 8 foot mins 3'3 is 59 inches. So Sotomayor had about 59 inches max vert.
I can feel every tendon in my knee tearing trying to land a 52 inch vertical
It's amazing how he can jump so high and his knees just can't keep up with the ability :D Does he have springs in his shoes? :D
Insane.. All good-points!!! Would be interesting to see how he compares to others on the Motion-Tracking+Force-plate..
@@tsoden2 how did I misuse them bro??
@@tsoden2 oh alri.. U right
Use the "Just Jump" mat with your Vertec!
This is a very sound analysis... Great work!
I do remember in my prime of vertical jumping (20-21 yrs old) having "those days" where I was feeling super explosive and could jump a legitimate 5-6" higher than any AVG day. I could never explain it. Diet? Rest? Types of physical activity I had done leading up to it? It was like the planets aligned or something. Average day, I would get around 38-39" but on those special days I'd be getting 44-46". Again, I'd measure the exact same way (7'0 standing reach [I'm short] to a 10'10). Do you think Jamal had one of those days like I mentioned?
There's gotta be a solid scientific answer for this too just haven't heard of one.
Cns fatigue
Muscle fatigue?
Dennis King had a 60INCH at 5'10 inch in 1993...his BOOK IS CALLED DENNIS KING THE HIGHEST JUMPER TO EVER WALK THIS EARTH... He got his STOMACH TO A 10FT B-BALL RIM
He's 6'2". I'll believe he has a 52 inch vertical if I see the top of his head six inches above a 10-foot rim. We never see that with these guys. And no, I don't mean with the camera at shin-height and the player between the camera and the rim like all these channels seem to do when they're trying to impress us.
yep
jumpinjohnnyruss look on his ig...
You can guess accurately their actual jump height in comparison to the rim if you get the distance between the back of the rim and front of the rim and subtract that from the top of the jumper's head at their peak height to nullify the "angle illusion" - that's where their head would actually be, in this case his head would still be way above the rim - pause at 2:00 ish when he's at his highest and try my above trick
@@icetre1819 nick?
Vertical isn't measured in accordance to one's height, but rather their standing reach. Watch the video next time before you say some dumbass shit lol
52 is WILD! I had a 33" standing vertical and a 39" running and I was miles above most people I played ball with.
Your vert is near LeBron James
@@juliussmith9737 awesome. I’m 6’3 and could easily hit my head on the rim if I wasn’t careful. Believe it or not but I could actually touch rim with my foot jumping off of one leg. Someone else here didn’t believe me but whatever. High jumped in college and was ranked in the United States top 15 highjumpers for three of my four years of college. All of the guys I jumped against at the major competitions had at least 30” verts with a 36” running vert off of one leg
1:36 First year high schoolers on their first day
Ong
Crazy ass growth spurts
Imo on that highest jump he did, he would get a higher touch if he was more comfortable with his arms swing movement while he was in the air. I went to check back on the zion vert test, zion was so balance in the air, his upper-body handled the explosiveness extremely well. Nevertheless, 45 to 52, thats insanely unbelievable, i’d love to hear so indept analysis about this leap in vert jump, because i believe there must be some “trade-off” if he was able to gain so much in vertical in such a short time, there should be some changes in “horizontal” performance aspects. Because i once read that quarter squats inc vert but it puts you in some disadvantages in distance running speed,etc.
please do some experiment/scientific investigation 👏🏻👏🏻
Cant wait for more crazy stuffs from your channel
Naptownnnnnnnn!!!!💯‼️🙌🏾💪🏾
My dad was 5’9” in Newark pd sgt test did a 3’6” vertical leap that’s free standing not running...it’s on record. Back in the late 50’s.... he was dunking almost at 50 yrs old....I seen him with his head over the basket and block guys 6’6” to 6’8” with ease.... he’s 87 and has trouble walking now but was a freak.
Just by seeing this makes me wanna work hard more.
I'm 5'7 btw and I tapped a 9'11 ring..
9 11 😱😱😱
That means anything is possible if you work hard for it! ✊🏼
Bigger guys are heavier so they will tend to reach high because of size but have a proportionally less impressive vertical. A 6ft guy with long reach will tend to reach close to a 7ft guy with proportional wingspan due to a higher vertical. Mass and gravity as well as wingspan are huge factors.
When I was in school you couldn’t “run” for a “vertical” leap.🤷♂️
Word. Standing Vert Only. It is way more impressive to watch Frank Yang's Standing 40'' Vert Test .
I was wondering the same thing, I thought there was a part of the video where dude stood still and jumped straight up smh idk things change.
@Fact Check so then do a standing vert like its supposed to be. Since when did going to the big leagues mean making things easier?
@Fact Check just because there isn't a hard fast rule on how to measure VERTICAL leap. It makes sense that a vertical leap should be measured standing because a running leap entails a vertical but also a HORIZONTAL leap. The ideal vertical leap is all y no x. That's a Newtonian law of motion that one learns in 11th grade physics.
This isn't a vertical jump. This is a run and jump
how does this guy not burn up on reentry into our atmosphere?
Hey Coach. He would have jumped higher if you called him Squidward
Motivational HOPs + fascinating analysis.
Trampoline man 💥🔥🔥🔥 jump man waou
8:17 if you look at this jump the highest point he could reach would be with more extension in his back the slight bend forward at the hips AND at the shoulder took some height away and is likely why he was able to increase his vert from here. More to do with the form of his jump and the placement of the marker.
He jumps so high that he needs a parachute for landing 😂
his bounce is crazy!!!!!!!
Yes, let the athlete decide how long their approach is. In track and field, athletes decide how long their approach is. I wonder how high he could do the high jump?
Or the long jump. Remember reading a book on Bob Beamon where he said he tried to touch as high as he could on a backboard after the 68 Olympics and consistently touched 4-5 inches below the top. He was around 6'1".
If you take two screenshots of the jumper at apex and put them side by side the athlete's heels at apex are even with his waist when standing on the ground. Another clue, the top of his head at apex is roughly the height of the rim, ten feet. This is also correlated by the 12'2" leaping reach, working backward from arm length. You can also compare him to the height of the coach standing on the ground. Even with the coach crouching down, the athlete's heels only reaches the coach's sternum. This is a roughly 38 inch vertical. Which is an excellent and NBA caliber jump, but not a Guinness world record.
Why u go by heel instead of toe height?
His foot reached waist high of the guy next to him.
A jumper may have disproportionate neck, arm, leg, or chest dimensions relative to standing height. Not everyone is built like the vitruvian man. Measuring downward(d) and above(a) reach- both hands simultaneously- can be used to determine shoulder elevation (d+a)/2.
If the guy can get his head about halfway or so above the rim, then its legit
He goes up.
they should also measure from the floor and to feet, when his body is stretched out. Then its not about height,, but ability to jump vertically
Its measured from their arm extended up standing to their arm extended jumping. So height doesn’t affect it
@@matthewhammans4365 seems accurate too,.
This is unbelievable!!
Freaky freak. Helicopters be "damnnnnnnnn!"
YO WTF THAT IS INSANE man's said, "lebron who?" "Michael who?" 😂
Pffft. I can jump 100 meters.
On a catapult...
Ty
I had a 2" vertical in high school.
I actually got a 57 inch vertical. But…my friends Android got stolen when he was recording.
Did he touch an inch over top of backboard? If so then he is the highest jumper ever
Basketball highlights the backboard is 13ft he touched 12’2
Why does it matter where he touched? They have the actual measurement of his jump, which was 52". Not all backboards are made the same, and not every person is the same height.
@@nursegilbey lol... what?
Very very few people in the world can touch a legit 13 feet... Like probably less than 5 and they are all olympic high jumpers..
@@icyboy771z pretty sure Wilt was able to when he was younger
I had a 60 inch vertical jump last summer. The landing really hurt my feet as the ground was very hard. I was installing soffits and my ladder started to slip sideways. I had a choice - ride it to the ground and get my legs tangled in the rungs or jump off. I jumped.
Zion should drop his weight and get a 55in vert
Metro Boomin fr he probably could
He wouldn’t be as dominant
250 he can get it
Facts
This comment aged well
You can tell this tester is hyped for his baller! Crazy Hops!
I did 60” before. I just didn’t have the cameras on
Flight lol
Truly incredible for a guy of such statue to leap that high!
Wonder what this guy could high jump if he learned how to high jump.
👍 yep
7footer easily
First round draft gonna go crazy
Honestly i actually believe this, since if tdub could get his head to the rim then I think even a 55 might be possible
Tdub got his head above the rim quite often too
This is awesome content, sir.
But can he shoot like Ben Simmons?
I jumped to 74" I just didn't have the cameras on
Crazy thing is that his runup and technique could improve adding an inch or two
This guy...
A Anon I really doubt that this dude has an issue with technique
test should either be with both arms extended above the head or no arms and just measure how high the head gets. its not the best solution, but much harder to manipulate the results.
I can do that in my sleep
There's a guy named (or calling himself) Anthony Height who hit an 11'8 bell at a playground competition (video on TH-cam) in 9/22/21. He is 5'6 (same height as me) so his reach is likely 7'3-7'6. That would put him at 50"-53" (and that's just hitting the bell with no way to see if he hit it 1"-2" to spare). It would be nice to get him into the gym to see how he could perform on a wood court because I have a feeling after watching the competition he could be among the highest ever. Definitely a video worth watching.
I did 100 inch in 7th grade, I just didnt have the cameras on, social media was different back in the day.
I know I actually had a 105 in 6th grade. I wish I got it on camera too
Extremely awesome jump, but I'm sick of everyone calling these a vertical. These are a jump not a vertical.
Lmfao try to search bro
@@xxfernandez8187 The joke's on you Lmfao. Verticals at the NFL combine are done from a standing position...I mean, still that kid is something else
The NBA does two different jump measurements in the NBA Draft Combine. The first is the "Standing Vertical Leap" and the second is the "Max Vertical Leap" of which this is the latter. The latter is now generally considered to be a better measurement for basketball athletes, many of whom are one-footed leapers, for the reasons explained in the video; being specific, people should call these a "max vert" for clarity.
