He seriously committed to that dunk.


Oh yeah, props for going for it =)

Wouldn't the tilt of the tramp make it harder? Killing your momentum?


If something is deserving to be quoted out of context, this is it.

If someone hit a trampoline and maintained their running speed and direction but added lift on top of that, they'd smash straight into the rim. The tilt of the tramp redirects your force upwards so you have the height and time for a tricky dunk while keeping your teeth in your head.>> ^TheSluiceGate:

Why did that happen? Was he just not fast enough? The trampoline didn't bottom out, so it's not about how big he is.


This happened because he wasted all his momentum by jumping akwardly onto the trampoline.

Notice the angle of his feet. It's actually much easier to see on this version.

Might be that he didn't bend his knees at all. That he's big makes the vid but I think anybody who jumped like that would fail.>> ^messenger:
