because after watching it, I still don't know what's different the way he lands compared to everyone.

That dude is a moron over explaining
He lands flat footed AKA he lands heel first

National High jumper back in my teen years
Derrick has/had bad feet
bottom line
it's what you get from wearing big ass basketball shoes
Like heels
Make people heel striking cadence
Look up barefoot running
That's how you get your feet right
Right mechanics
I can just tell Derrick was a hood gang banger wearing big ass moon boot basketball shoes in his youth

I'm no athlete or pro at this kind of thing but to my untrained eye, his problem is landing full force on his heels and that way all the strain of the landing is absorbed directly by the joints in his ankles and knees, which can't ideal tbh. Has to try to land smoothly by kind of using his feet, legs and hips as sort of a cushion. Like springs, not stilts.
