  They have an extra muscle in their legs, it's science!

  They only steal crab legs and white women

  Wow. That's quite impressive. I'm 5'10" and can dunk, but not nearly as easily as this guy who is also 5 inches shorter.
  
  Takes a lot of great training and time. He certainly put his work in.

  Thats all I ask, thanks!

  Way to apply and improve yourself....here's your welfare check!
  
  But actually it's really impressive how he's capitalizing to make some money off this (although I wonder how safe the training is and if that won't expose him to legal troubles down the road).

  You're just awful.

  It's easier to dunk off one foot, at least in my experience. I can touch 11'2'' with a running start off one foot, but only 10'7'' off two.

  Yes this would be true.
  
  Hence why Jason Richardson's dunks were so damn crazy. He was a 2 footed jumper.

  I'm different. I dunk much easier going off two feet rather than one. If I could easily palm a men's ball it would help but I can easily gather off two and go up with hands than I can going off one foot and dunking with one hand.

  I am the same way, minus the dunking part. I jump a lot better off 2 feet. Then again, I've had several severe sprains of both ankles.

  Same issue. Bad ankle sprain that probably never healed correctly. Same with one of my knees that I still feel pain from time to time.

  Is it weird to be right-handed and able to jump higher off your left foot?

  No.
• robj55

  

  That's a hell of a vert to be dunking at that height.
