Its insane, he and t-dub and guy dupuy are the craziest dunkers ive seen. Oh yea Area 51 too crazy 5'8 guy who can do any dunk possible. I think the weakest dunkers in TFB still has at least a 40 inch vert.

In the video, it states Golden Child has a 50 inch vert, I dont take that but I think he does have a legit 44-45 inch running vert, the way he jumps really blows my mind, its flying..

[Take Your Lumps]

Well, for starters, his last name is Kemp.

[NBA4EVER]

team flight brothers are the best dunkers in the world hands down. they are the AND 1 of dunking. all they do all day is practice dunking its crazy

Ziani is still more impressive ..56 in vert apparently

50 seconds in..the flip over the car...can that even be real?

[enayes]

there all crazy but t-dubs vids are the most impressive, and no way ziani has a 56 inch vert, its def in the 40's but not close to 56

[23ajay]

I want to say no bc they change the camera angle before he jumps, not allowing you to see what he jumped off of. But I am sure it is possible.

Kadour Ziani jumps really freaking high, but like the other poster said , its in the 40s. 56 just cant be real. The human limit is 44-45 inches vert. Even if theres a extremely rare exception like one in a billion kind ( like how Usain Bolt can run 9.6 and still slow down ), the max imo would be 50.

As for the other guy in the link, ive just watched the whole video and I conclude that he is a freak of nature, how the human body can pull such amazing feats boggles my mind. This guy must have trained for years to master such skills. I know its possible to jump over a car, but a frontflip? Gets me wondering if a frontflip dunk is possible..

[andredagiant]

genetics and hard time in the gym

[thejumpa]

Most of it is genetics.....unless they sit in the gym squatting all the damn time and work on just that.

The human limit isn't 44-45 inches lol. PLENTY of people have 40 or more. 56 is a super high but that guy is 5'10. I'm willing to bet in his prime he was 50-52

actually we are not even close to our maximum potential when it comes to athletics

there will be people with 50+,Truth is if some of these freaks really wanted to just train for an increase vertical they would be damn high.

How do they jump this high?

-fast twitch fibers (most important)
-very long lower legs / medium thighs / short trunk
- high inserted calfs (long achilles tendon)
- really the list goes on, joints, tendons, and etc.

no doubt kemp put in work and hes got amazing genetics, not just vertical, but ****ing look at that body control! absolutely amazing

Is he one of Shawn Kemp's illegitimate kids?

[lilgregoden]

the first video with Kemp, the dunk at 37 seconds looks so fake

Hard to believe anyone could surpass 50 + inches really. If someone really has a 50 inch vertical even. It would be insane, imagine a 5'10 guy hitting his head on the rim. So if Kadour Ziani does have a 56 inch vert. He would be 5'4 and still be able to hit head on rim. Which I think its impossible.

And what I meant by human limit is 44-45 inches. Is because ive looked through the combine results. NBA, NFL etc. And even the highest of highest was 44-45. Nate Robinson's one was 43.5 inches, and he's regarded as arguably the highest jumper in the NBA.

Though very possible that a human could potentally reach 50 inches( exception like Usain Bolt can run so freaking fast ). But more then 50 inches will be too unreal..

They would lose their hops if they were as big as regular NBA players...
