  • anyone hear of that boingvert jump program??? it's supposed to be crazy

  • real dunks, pure skills, NO PROPS !

  • type "short guy dunks" in the youtube search box to see a 5ft 5in guy dunking a 10ft hoop

  • I have watched that competition in full and Domonique should have won. His dunks that day were better.

  • On top of that I am not able to understand this but I took the first step to dunking three weeks ago! I simply just made use of the method that is over at 50-inch-vertical[dot]com and around pretty much 2 weeks, I hop 14 inches more! Dunking is indeed , fun!

    Michael Jordan and Dominique Wilkins samboykid9

  • Love MJ forever, but 'Nique is really a 3 time champion, and everyone knows it..

  • Mj and Nique are 6'6'' and 6'7'', I think, respectively, and barely 200lbs - small by today's standards. Being smaller makes dunks more aesthetically appealing - more space is like more palette for your art. NBA has opted for bigger = better, and thus the dunks look cartoonish, not dramatic. Hard to look like you're flying when you dont hardly have to jump to touch the rim.

  • @1Eu4ic Actually Dominique is listed 6.8-235 lb and MJ is listed 6.6-218lb!I don't think they were small for today's full-steroids players my friend!young boys like u think lebron and wade are the best dunkers ever...u can live in your fairy-tale!

  • @AdreasTheGreat Um did you even read what I said? I was saying that today's dunks are NOT as good, b/c the players are bigger and there is less space between them and the rim. Therefore I think you and I agree. Before MJ's first retirement, he was 198lbs according to countless basketball cards. He muscled up when he returned. You're probably reading a website that has their final weight listed, right before they retired. MJ in 1988 was not 218lbs, sorry buddy. Thanks.

  • @1Eu4ic Nique is 6'10" I believe.

  • @binka21 6 8

  • MJ'S VERTICAL LEAP IS CRAZY!!! PAUSE AT 0:06, HE ALMOST BUMP HIS AT THE RIM....SEE THE DIFFERENCE OF THE ALTITUDE HE JUMPED,

    FROM 0:06 TO 0:08... KABOOOOOOOOM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Every hero(Jordan) needs a villian(Wilkins).  Epic dunk contests between these two!!!!

  • @redhibernation Meh. Nique was a hero too. Before his injury, his fan base was just as big as MJ. I was on that fan list during those years. AND his scoring rivaled MJ. He sucked at defense though. Indeed an Epic dunk. Nique was a power slamming scoring machine.

  • @redhibernation How the hell is Nique a villain? He is a rival, not a villain. Learn the difference.

  • best slam dunk contest ever.

    todays sd contest is BS. giving 50 for shitty dunks LOL

  • I am a Panathinaikos supporter and I am very proud that Dominique helped my team to win the 1st European Championship in 1996 in Paris's F4. He is fantastic!

  • samboykid9, This is why I play basketball, along with all the fancy dunks. If you can't dunk yet, you have to start practicing. I definitely advise you to try the one I'm using - 50 inch vertical (dot) com - I m 5 7 and I can dunk!

  • #VIDEOPOSTERID#, is 5 9, white and can dunk easily. Wtf you mean white guys can t jump? It s (just|simply|all)# about the training people do to get their jump to be strong enough to dunk. For me, I just used the training workout over at 50 inch vertical (dot) com

  • Last generation of dunkers has not much creativity as opposed to today's generation of dunkers, but there is no difference in athletic ability. This dunk contest was the BEST dunking contest ever due to its sheer competitiveness.

  • They should've had a Kobe Bryant vs Lebron James and threw Dwayne Wade and Vince Carter on in there as well. No short players like Nate Robinson only tall players. LOL

  • lIMP bIZKIT mY gENERATION

  • What's the song at the beginning where they say "homie we can fly"?

  • The best slam dunk contest ever!!!

  • NIQUE GOT ROBBED IN 88!

  • Homecourt advantage. The sports plague. Dominique deserve the 88 title

  • It was close, but I would have given it to Dominique.

  • What they didn't show here and rarely do is that Jordan's dunk from the line was his 2nd attempt - he missed it the first time, Domonique should've won.

  • dominique did

  • he came to my school today lol

  • The Slam Dunk Contest of all Slam Dunk Contests. Jordan & Wilkins the Ali VS Frazier of Dunkers.

  • wow that was some great dunks. But MJ deserve the trophy.

  • look at where his head is on that freethrow line dunk..i have that poster where his head is rim high...he didnt even have his arm extended when he dunked....he could have taken off 2 feet back if he wanted

  • Imagine if MJ and dominique played on the same team best fucking DUO EVER

  • pause at 00:07 and resume

    man that's crazy

    he's juz like jumpin' from 2nd floor

  • I wash they had HD back in MJ days.

  • Comment removed

  • it looks like jordan is floating when he dunks from the free throw fuck i wish i could do that

  • You can. Just ask for them to play it in slow motion. That's what they had done with MJ. If you want to see a air/floating, there is one of The Doctor Julius Erving slamming on a Portland Trail Blazzer. Talk about aero fucking dynamics; afro and all.

  • MJ the best

  • this video's volume continues to get lower and lower.

    I've lived in Atlanta my whole life and never knew that Dominque Wilkins was considered a "great" in basketball.

    I thought Mike had missed the last one. That's why I thought he was punching after it.

  • A two-handed windmill (rare back then) with authority that only Dominique could possess - a 45?

    This was one of the great dunk contests in the history of it all - 50's on all the final dunks.

    It should have been a tie - period!

  • The reason why Jordan's dunk was a 37 was the judges didnt realize he was doing a figure 8 with the ball as he hung in the air and did the splits so gracefully at the same time.

  • Dominique Wilkins should have won this one. I remember watching it live on TV just like it was yesterdsay.

  • I agree! Wilkins Last dunk was the nail in the coffin! Jordan shouldn't have won it!

  • all 3 dunks from Jordan and Nique should have been 50's

  • MJ had a little bit of luck.

    He never really got a debilitating injury, that's why his stats were consistent and maintained throughout his career.

    IMHO, Pete Maravich was a better shooter than MJ. Too bad he got that nasty leg injury.

  • Not only that, but Pistol Pete had a horrible heart to, which makes him more amazing.

  • That Dominique Wilkins tomahawk off the glass is SICK!!

  • ..people have to put this in context and stop comparing this to todays dunkers (vince, kobe,,etc)....in 1987, this was the most innovative stuff anyone had seen in terms of dunking, jordan's hangtime and nique's power off 2 made them the standard in the late 80's...it was a different time and it was amazing to watch

  • Dominique Wilkins should have been on the original 1992 Dream Team. One of USA Basketball's greatest mistakes.

  • yes but he is injured that time!

  • @arvinserra Isaiah Thomas deserved it more... but yeah, I'd choose Wilkins over Christian Lutner or Latnor (who remembers his name?) anyday

  • @arvinserra

    And in the top 50 players of all time.

  • @arvinserra he was originally selected but was injured

  • panathinaikos!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Michael Jordan Is the greatest. Lebron don't have shit on MJ Its just a change in age and era's Lebron now back then would have gotten his ass handed to him in a box by Michael Jordan. People are still buying his shoes how long has Lebron had his own shoe out

  • but still u cant lie that lebron has amazing dunking skills he's just yea dont wana enter a dunk competition :P and erm btw can someone tell me why they stopped putting m.j on video games after nba street vol 2 ty :)

  • what's the song when they say , "homie we can fly"? at 0:05

  • i believe its because the jordan name became a brand and they had to pay t o have him in the games

  • hops - vince

    hang/air time - michael jordan

    creativness - dwight howard

  • here we go again!!! wtf kobe has to do with jordan. you are just one of those kids waiting for the first opportunity to talk about kobe. This video is about the GREAT ONE and one of the best dunkers in history so go do your homework and leave the comments to grown people that understands the game.

  • my m8 doesnt even no who jordan is i cant believe it

  • And no I don't think Nique should have won this contest, although his dunks were powerful and his head was almost always near the rim, Jordan's free throw line dunk is better than anything Nique has in his arsenal,... and Jordan does have more creativity overall b/c he can jump off one or two feet and Nique only jumps off two.

    ---Plus, it sounds better that Nique and Jordan each won two

  • Allow me to clear something up: Vince Carter and Michael Jordan are DIFFERENT STYLE DUNKERS. VC might be able to jump slightly higher than Jordan, and even thats debatable, but Jordan can soar much further from the hoop than VC (in games and dunk contests) and thats not debatable!!!!

    Also, Jordan seem to possess unlimited durability and lack of injuries so he also has more quantity of dunks than VC due to playing 81-82 games seasons where VC has been injury prone and missed lots of games

  • your right bub im horrified!!

  • I am/was a huge Jordan fan but Nique definitely should have won. Still great stuff from both.

  • Well, if Jordan was so GREAT, how come he only won back-to-back titles in his entire career? Domonique and he both won two titles each. Still, they practice those dunks ahead of time - improvise, baby! That last dunk had Jordan's foot inside the foul line and he probably could hve made it with his foot behind the line. One store has a big picture of him in mid-flight. Could you see Dr. J and he at their primes against each other? Who would have won THOSE?

  • Jordan did not compete in the slam dunk contest after he won those two titles. As for his greatness, it used to be said that you can't win a NBA championship without a great center. The Jordan-led Chicago championship teams had 3 different starting centers who were good, but none were great. Also, it was said that true greatness was measured by how many championships you won. Bill Russell (10), Jordan (6), next set of superstars who led their teams to the title have 3 at the most.

  • True. We all know his play on the court, but Jordan's special gifts on the court was that he wasn't known JUST for his dunks. Marv Albert's call of his "Spectacular move!" or the subtle push-off to score in the '98 Finals. Also, Russell won (11) titles. Kareem Adbul-Jabbar won a total of (6) NBA titles, with (5) of them as a Laker.

  • Good points. I didn 't remember Jabbar winning 6. I knew he won 1 with Milwaukee.

  • @dave929  YOU!!! YOU WILL WIN!!!!

  • Oh really. Tell me Jordan couldn't do any of the Dunks VC or JR did. Jordan had a 48 inch vertical and bigger hands. VC and JR does not. Jordan FTMFW

  • nique should have won

  • This is the Greatest Slam Dunk Contest ever of all time.

  • Jordan was great but Nique should have won

  • vince carter is amazing but u cant denie jordon has way more hops

  • lol are u crazy vc is the best dunker in history

  • MICHAEL JORDAN..the greatest basketball player ever...KOBE is my boy and will go down as one of the top 7 greatest ever to play the game, if he wins a couple of more rings, he will enter the top five...VINCE CARTER rose over that austrailian, that was god frightening....but NIQUE was robbed in 88, the greatest, most powerful dunker ever, this cat did a double pump, reverse windmill dunk, never done before or since, and only got a 45..a travesty..JORDAN knows he lost...DR. J. inspires them all

  • THE GREATEST SLAM DUNK CONTEST EVER.

  • anyone knows the name of this song

  • The first opening seconds was Bombs over Baghdad and then So fresh so clean both by Outkast and I'm not sure what it is after that.

  • GREATEST SLAM DUNK CONTEST EVER. MJ and Dominique. The greatest dunkers ever.

  • darvi: keep searching in you tube and assure you that you will find mj dunking behind free throw line

  • look at 1:54, he wasn't actually behind the line, his entire foot was in front of it

  • Hey everone this is the real michael jordan check out my page I just made it.

  • No jordan kicked his ass.. all dominic can do is windmill. jordan can hang in the air! he was so graceful.

  • Thankyou. Yeah Dominque's dunks were amazing but have some variety. He did like 4 windmills in a row. Doing a windmill from one side and then from another is NOT a different dunk. He overdid it with the windmills.

  • No. Jordan shouldnt have won that many times. I agree he could win here because he was home. But they kept giving him 50's after he did it like every other year. Which he should have lost. I respect Mike for that dunk ( and everything else he has done in the NBA) but after they seen it ONCE and DEFINATELY TWICE. Its not a 50 anymore.

  • Michael should of won this time. But other times Jordan did that move it should'nt have been a 50.

  • @KALANI12017 WINDMILL DUNK WITH 2 HANDS MAN..... YOU DO IT.. LET'S SEE IF YOU CAN...

  • Jordan only won because of his name. Dominique kicked his ass and everybody knows it.

  • That was 1986, Jordan wasn't Jordan back then. That winning dunk was what gave him his logo. MJ won because he flew from the FT line and earned his AIR title that night.

    Dominique was great but he just got beat.

  • What? Jordan was Jordan since after Worthy and them left from UNC. 86 he was still REAL REAL Good.

  • write on you tube search PFS-MIROSLAV RAJIC

    You must watch this,Boy is new Michal Jordan,he shoot,drible,dunk,asist like ,Kobe,Lebron and Jordan... Watch this ADRESS and leave a comment if you can... Next year he will e No'1 on NBA draft...

  • jordan in the monster

  • great video

    JORDAN FANS out there check out my vid  "THE LEGEND OF 23"

  • i was at that all-star weekend

  • Jordan signature dunk, from teh FT line, si the most amazing to me. It looks to me like he could have taken off from about 6-8" further away adn still dunked it. 1. MJ 2. DW 3. VC 4. Like 15 other guys.

  • heres my 2 cents worth id wanna dunk like nique and play like jordan ....seriously.

  • Man Nique did get robbed on his last dunk.....The Human Highlight Reel used to throw them down so hard like it was a video game.

  • The Greatest Slam Dunk ever for ever. Players today cannot do that things that Michael and Dominique did.

  • that is against the competition they had at the time. Like Lebron could do somethings Jordan could. But not against the players Jordan was against.

  • ?. Players are way more athletic now than then. Yeah people like Michael, Dominique, Magic, people like that. But we got great defensive players like, Prince, Bowen, Battier, KG, Camby, Kobe, Tim Duncan, Dwight Howard, Raja Bell, CP3, And alot of others. I believe new players are just as good if not better than old players. New players learned from old players.

  • they are more athletic, but not smarter. Tim Duncan and Kobe both started during the Golden age of basketball. Basketball isn't bad now, but it's still not as exciting as the old days.

  • Exactly, I thought I grew out of it or something but is just not as exciting as it used to. Late 80's until late 90's was the most exciting nba moment ever. In my humble opinion....

  • I agree! Too much commercialization of the sport now - that takes away from it. can I get an "Amen"?

  • micheal jordan is really the best player in the

    universe!!!

  • Dominique was only dunking, but Michael was Fliyng. To me Micheal was more creative in the air.

  • going to that free line area will be scored 50 haha mike can do also what wilkins do on his last dunk ... but can wilkins??? do a free throw line dunk ??? maybe if he can he win the slam dunk contest but only mike can do that and others maybe ..:D

  • Any player today can do that. Michael and Dominique are the greatest dunkers of all time.

  • Wilkins was robbed. His last Dunk was a 50 but being at home, Jordan was going to win.

  • Wilkins rinsed Mike on this contest everyone can c that..arrest my cas

  • two tears and a bucket

  • nadie como el para saltar en el aire

  • Players today should watch this video to realize what a slam dunk contest is!

  • if you appreciate underground athletes and dunking...

    search BRENT DOCTER a 6'2" white kid from Cornfield Nebraska that throws down some nasty dunks reverses, 360's, through the legs (in HS)Game footage and dunk contests

  • micheal is the best there was the best there is and the best there ever will be

  • correct man. noone can be better than him

  • YA~~

  • don't know so fo sho, allen iverson passed him nasty, and lebron james is also amazing, though michael is stillt he shit

  • Michael was the greatest ever, there will never be another Michael Jordan, Dominique Wilkins was bad ass, but Michael is the man

  • mcgrady??

  • Jordan is the greatest but I think that the best basketball player at the moment is Tracy McGrady.He is my favorite player

  • ya dude...i think he is the best PG

  • wow hes french i think hes a queer now

  • wtf? ethnocentrism.. your lacking it. Get some culture, idiot.

  • Wilkins is the best  dunker in the universe ,this at 0.23 was the best ever

    And he was born in france,that's why he slam with more rage !!!

  • me 2...

  • wtf?

  • i believe he can fly

  • eatmyplum is a dumb fat lipped idiot who was good for nothing but... oh, not good for anything at all. What a hopeless loser PUSSY.

  • you're right. that's why he's sitting in his million dollar mansion with his 3 or so NBA champioship rings on his fingers. not to mention the two movies he did and past endorsements too. oh yeah and he runs his own company now. Yeah he's pretty dumb. what's dumb is popping off shit like that from your trailer home. get a life buddy.

  • u mean 6 rings..

  • yeah it's been so long I forgot. don't really follow basketball anymore. i was just making a point to some retard here saying stupid things online. overall it's pointless arguing for someone else who doesn't even know you exist but I felt I needed to point out his stupidity.

  • lol jordan earns your annually for a day, are you happy what youre doing? lmao

  • james white barely missed a between the legs ffrom foul line in college...when gay noel beat him cuz he missed it..ive seen james do it tho he can and he can do two hands and windmill from foul line...cant fuck wit that..that brent petway in the development league can crush gay dwight howard...and if j rich wanted to he could...but he would prob get robbed again by some fag like fred jones ya that was gay as hell

  • Now a days you can wear a cape and "THROW" it in the basket and win the slam dunk contest. The past slam dunk was a disgrace and embarrassing for the contest. Not like it was back in the day, but yet these players now are making so much more. Sad.

  • Emmm did you see the dunks that dwight did before the superman dunk >?? Guess not, and second of all a dunk does not mean you have to hit the rim with your hand. Common men you know you liked the superman dunk, did you where he jump from non of those 2 can do that.

  • cant compete with a man who can dunk from the free throw line.

  • es un buen de los mejores en ese deporte

  • The problem with the dunk contest, then and now is the judging. The only reason 'Nique got a bull s--- 45 for a beautiful two handed windmill was because Mike got a bull s--- 47 for his great dunk.

    There is no question in my mind that Michael deserved a 50 for that free throw line dunk (the poster of which hung in my bedroom for a long time). Of course nowadays everyone does that dunk - but not like Mike!

  • he mj ,

    alle nach dir sind nur schlechte fakes!!

  • Michael Jordan ;) ;)

  • we panathinaikos fans had the pleasure to see dominique in athens.amazing player...

  • the dunk contest will never live up to when jordan and wilkins squared off against each other. Basketball as a sport will never be the way it was back then.

  • You are the best, Michael

  • Allen Iverson for MVP

  • micheal WAS and IS the best dunker ever only him and DR. J can do the foul line dunk

  • so can josh smith and james white?

  • i agree wit u intelligent man one hundreed 100% but jordan one 6 not 7, if he didnt play base ball it might have been 8 in a row....its all good

  • Only Michael. He's like a butterfly in the air. His dunks are so smooth and ellegant....Best EVER !!!!

  • it rocks but ot sucks

  • he can fly

  • all hail his airness

  • Tale of the tape time! Ring count! Dirk's championship ring count:ZERO!!! nada!!! Zilch!!! Fagad it!!! Jordan? SEVEN rings fool! Dirk CHOKES in big playoff games,Jordan? Ha!!! As good as Jordan was in regular season,he was pure murder in the playoffs and in SEVEN championship rounds Jordan was involved in? Jordan was seven for seven!!! Put championship blood in the water, and the shark named Michael Jordan ALWAYS went in for the kill!!! Now sit down!

  • Wilkins played in Greece for Panathinaikos the season 1995-96.

  • Put it this way Michael Jordan is the greatest basketball player of all time and nobody can ever top the free throw line dunk.

  • jordan is the best of all time so dont come here nd talk shit about jordan and that he suck!

  • Jordan is way better than anyone and always will be He deserved to win that contest
