And of course theirs always this little diddy... if someone had their arm that high today for a dunk the announcers would have a massive coronary heart attack and die at the table the way the spaz over dunks today.

You can't judge anything on angles like that, the only way to tell if someone is rim level is really a direct shot of the basket.
A camera looking up at a shot like that isn't really something to go off of.

You can judge that he's really f_cking high... don't be an idiot and try to deny it. Just look at his feet in relation to other athletes/the floor. Deuce claimed a "2 foot" vertical. Does it look like 2 feet? Or is the camera angle too tricky to tell... :facepalm
Re: Wilt Chamberlain free throw dunks:
35" if he's at rim level. But I think the angle affects that
edit: 30-33"

You must be around 13 if you don't know about camera perspective, here's a giant holding onto the Christ the redeemer statue in Brazil:

That statue is 130ft tall, he's clearly a monster.
Like I said, you can't tell ANYTHING from these garbage camera angles you're posting as proof, all of them are either off angle or pointing up at the rim.

I know damn well about camera distortion and perspective in photography is a hobby of mine. I'll ask again. Are you going to sit here and say "I can not deduce whether or not Wilt's vertical was two feet or not because I don't trust the angle"!?
Get real. The distortion is NOT that extreme.

Seeing is in the bottom photo that Wilt has his hand on the backboard and his arm in a bent position...i'd say he's well skying.

I can tell you're a moron.
You're, not YOUR. If you plan on calling someone an idiot learn the difference.
