  • i wonder if its possible to jump high from sitting on the ground?....idk just something to think about, i certainly wouldn't be able to do it

  • I just brought my vertical jump bible today. Starting stats are 150-155lbs 5'8 VJ ~23 inches.

    Gonna be using your videos to help fire my CNS when i train lol. When here goes the next 2 years of my life, hope this works =)

  • Box lets you gain momentum fool, do it without the box!!!

  • @Typho0n86 no the box eliminates momentum, making it harder. I explained it all the in the video. have you ever done a box jump with and without a box?

  • Respond to this video... obviously you've never attempted a box jump. And yes, I do jump without boxes.

  • @digitalairair And lets see an unedited video 0:28 fool

  • @digitalairair it looks like u gained SOME momentum when you rocked back on the box and your feet were off the ground at the start. when you rocked forward, you used that momentum to get your body in motion. if you started with your torso straight and your feet on the ground, then you would have no momentum to aid the jump. impressive nonetheless.

  • Lol retards you cannot do this I have a 40 inch vert I cannot do this not even close however I've seen guys at the gym do this height or more and they cannot dunk a basketball

  • 12 year old here, this is a pretty good heighth to jump but my coach has a vid of my jumping 65inches no problem. keep working and ull get better kid

  • Funny how most of the E-lifters here can never jump this high even with a running start.

  • they have good roids in China

  • @SmLXXX These are those ignorant people who do NOT understand the meaning of HARDWORK. They think everyone that has packed on a lot of muscle takes steroids. Seriously how many dicks should be shoved down your throat for such a high rate of stupidity?

  • @I2eViLo hahaha realx! it was a fucking joke dummy! no, honestly it was impressive. I'm just joking around

  • best explosive training?

  • He's like a cat.

  • you're awesome 

  • skip to 0:27

  • Can you dunk????

  • @2HoTNeSSx i wanna ask him the samething too i can do a 55 box jump but i cant even touch the rim im 5"9 i still need like an inch to reach the rim...

  • @2HoTNeSSx lol 58' vertical kinda gurentees he can dunk

  • @FFmaxx Box jump is not vertical leap, they're very different. You can bend your legs to clear the box for box jumps.

  • people need to shut the fuck up with the physics shit.. post up a vid of yourself doing the same thing then we'll listen..

  • KFAADSJ;FJSALKF JESUS FUCKING FUCK HOW THE FUCK DOES HE DO THAT. HOLY FUCK.

  • yesterday i jumped on 52 inch without any practise before..so i need someone to tell me if its good....and im 16 yo...is it good for my age..i think that not many guys my age can do that...

  • @MRKIFLAR sorry.. im 15 and i do 4 sets of 5 of that height.. thats not bad, but nothing that amazing

  • @TheSecondCenter

    Post a video of yourself.

  • @TheSecondCenter you're such a douche, it is amazing and if you can do it like he did then congrats but you're probably full of shit

  • @TheSecondCenter Your E-stats are making me hard.

  • ninja training

  • 0:28 wuzzat purple dots.

  • with or without momentum, he can still jump over 45". so i don't know what all the quarrelling is about.

  • hèh_ÃÑy0ñË_wåNnÁ_chåt_wíth_mÊ_­î_fEêl_sØ_lònÊlý_t0dáÿ♀

  • he should do the high jump in the olympics

  • i don't mean to sound stupid but who is Frank Yang- what NFL Team does he play for

  • you are a ninja

  • nice good job

  • Not because he's Asian: he has the Bruce Lee gene. As for arguments about him not completely eliminating momentum and hence doing an imperfect jump, he clearly is in the 50's ballpark, at least in terms of ability.

  • this is literally impossible. literally

  • @hvyright "this is literally impossible. literally"

    Obviously not

  • wait, how does the chair eliminate momentum, if his foot wasn't planted when he began his jumping motion? (e.g. he uses the space between his foot and the ground to make a pendulum motion)

  • @Euphorium

    It's not technically momentum but I know what you mean. It definitely does give him a little bit of an advantage by providing his muscles with more elastic energy from that position. If he was going to truly eliminate the advantage of elastic energy through his arms and his feet, his feet would have to be planted on the ground (to reduce to benefits to a plyometric movement) and his arms shouldn't be allowed to produce a counter-movement.

  • @toserveandpraise88

    You have to have elastic energy to do any quality jump. It's what jumping relies on! Try squatting for 5 seconds and then jumping. Your jump will not be anywhere near your normal jump. If it is, then you definitely need to lay off the squats and start doing more plyometric type exercises that utilize the stretch reflex of muscle. Great JUMP!!

  • @overheadstorage

    Exactly my point. Sitting on the chair doesn't actually make that much of a difference. A true "sitting position" would be what I described. I completely agree with you. Unless you create elastic energy, you're selling yourself short on making a good jump. Sorry I wasn't clear. This guy's awesome though! I hope to be able to create a counter-movement as effective as his! He's an animal!

  • OMG this is insane you're the craziest athlete ever!!!! Damn your bench, squat and all that is amazing!!!

  • In these comments: Mad white guys.

  • shit man can u dunK?

  • have you trained your vertical ??

    and how?

  • holy crap that was so fast, and yea its all about explosion and holy shit 40 inch standing vert?? mines 28 lol

  • How tall is Frank?

  • ´wow that was crazy very nice man

  • nice one :)...that chair helps a little but still...can u wright down what trening is doing?thx

  • @pilar1899 the chair makes it harder.

  • I remember when i got a "He "GETS" momentum "FROM" the chair" How can he get momentum from a non moving object? He, himself uses his movement (back and forth) to create momentum. Sorry if this has nothing to do with the ongoing convo XD

  • jesus christ man

    amazing

  • wow impressive

  • yeah the bltcohes are funny, and i dont know about this kid, but there are def guys that do a 58 inch box jump.

  • How does he do it? Just consistent training or what?

  • @SJRNWT Lets get a few things strait here, man. Frank Yang is nuts no question about it but he is also a solid athlete. His body height is under six foot and his low bodyweight allows him to do well at squats as well as jumping. He doesnt have to move as much mass around.

  • Hi, SuperJump2010, on YouTube, Im jumping 4 & 1/2 feet in the air, amazing over 1000 views

  • that looks easy ,but the platform he jumped on was high soo i doubt it..

  • LMAO, I love the pathetic faggots trying to come up with some excuse such as editing the video just because they can never do something that requires this much athleticism.

  • @aznsyndicate609 Similar in a way, to all the guys that pull the steroid card at everything.

    Simply amazing power and explosion.

  • @TheSalisburySteak Steroids make a huge difference. I remember an expert giving a quote something like...."the most talentless athlete using steroids will trump the most skilled and gifted natural athlete when it comes to strength and muscle building sports."

  • lol anyone who says this video is fake has never ever jumped on to a box before. beast!

  • すげえええ

  • bilalhussain190: you're exactly right, he just jumped from the platform onto the seat, and then they reversed it afterwards, it would explain the blotches on the screen at 0:28

  • @sestey4 shut the fuck up,this video is legit..fucking queer

  • I wonder if he can dunk on a 10ft net, maybe not but he still got hops for a short asian.

  • lol they played it backwards..he really jumped from the top and sat down

  • yeah thats what i was thinkin, too hard to tell

  • No, I have no doubt he can actually do this. Check out his other video where they measure out his phenom forty-fucking-inch vert.

  • who said white man cant jump

  • white men can't jump. This guy is Asian. Hence "Yang"

  • hes asian

  • he's not white you unfunny fuck. he's asian. get the fuck out of here.

  • did he fast forward this?

  • damn that nigga siad get up

  • It is not vertical leap but still impressive though. It is simply not vertical because he can clear that only by raising his legs up. Vertical is how high you can jump from standing reach...two different things. Someone with a 32 inch vert can do this jump

  • ROFL.

  • @fittintogo too bad this guy has a 40 inch vert.

  • He might or might not but this jump sure does not demonstrate it

  • holy fuckin shit!!

  • yawn

  • lol bruce lee >:D

  • 5/5 good man!! very good:D

  • fucking impressive

  • Comment removed

  • Do you know what momentum is?

    If you stand on a moving object and that object suddenly stop,you will continue to move forward because of momentum.The chair is not moving from our point of view thus has no momentum.

    What he does is lowering the momentum needed to get to the top by leaning back before he jumps. He makes some more momentum so he dosent have to waste energy to create the movement needed to move forward+converting it to upward movement using his feets.

    Id say its "cheating" :P

  • its momentum because he moves forward. His feet lift off the ground as he leans and puts pressure on the back of the chair and then he transfers the pressure as he moves forward. Its like a swing and yes it is momentum albiet very little. What your saying is really weird first your saying there is no momentum and then your saying there is

    Its definatley cheating or else he wouldnt do it.

  • Well maybe i just got lost somewhere in my head. Anyways this could have been done with any solid object XD

  • yea sure but we both agree its not a legit standing box jump

  • well i dont think the referee in his next basketball match is going to blow the whistle because of the way he uses momentum to his advantage in my opinion

  • lol well go ahead and make your own video showing that you can do this using your method of "momentum" ( even though momentum does help him) still doubt you can do this

  • I did not say that i can do it. I was discussing momentum.

  • yeah i understood what you said.. i dont know what my intentions were when telling you to go do it.. but certainly not to make trouble "online"(lol)

  • You don't know vertical. This isn't vertical leap. Momentum did not help him. This is force rate development.

  • Does anyone know the best links to train for hops? Please let me know. Thx

  • squats

  • from what i've read and heard olympic style explosive lifts work really well..supposedly even those really heavy guys have good verts considering their weight

  • Wonder if he does Parkour?

  • Parkour...pshh...:D

  • dude!...

  • iam impress

  • yellow men can jump!

  • Frank Yang - "Don't compare me to Yao Ming."

  • check mine ! :P

  • HAHAHA

  • gawd damn.. that is impressive

  • real impressive. There's a lot of videos out there where a guy will get a running start. None of that nonsense here. This kid is legit.

  • FRANK YANG

  • can he dunk??

  • If you wanna skip to the actual jump go to 0:25

  • danm!!!!1

  • holy shit. Thats what I want to be able to do.

  • Awesome jump, however this is not demonstrating static strength proficiency. When he sets up his jump his feet come off the floor and re-plant to use the stretch shortening reflex of the muscle. So not demonstrating static strength. If he were to hold the squat position for 3 seconds then explode from that position then maybe.... Still an awesome feat!!!

  • Good observation I've been doing alot of this and I noticed that too. But you're right, he recieved alot of potential energy when his tendons and muscles absorbed the impact on the ground. Still ridiculous. I don't know If I can do that period.

  • thats true!! he does a COUNTER MOVEMENT JUMP.....puts his feet active on the floor and also dips doen in a little squat......so scientificly no SQUAT JUMP....still a nice, high jump;)

  • wonder what would happen if he missed that

  • I missed one today. Kinda fucked up my shin

  • crazy shit, how tall is he? I want to see him dunk. Frank Yang dunks vid please. nice job with Bach too!

  • lolololololololol

  • he has a 40" standing vert, tested by an NFL official.

  • @m1kasd prove it

  • That is pretty sick !!

    nice dude !!

  • Yes Yes Yes!

  • He's my god

  • Hey Frank, awesome jump. About 15 inches more than I can make with a squat start (I'm 5'7" and just did 43" a few days ago. Don't train to jump, though.) Don't think of this as knocking the video, 'cause it's pretty impressive, but lifting your feet a few inches of the floor and then driving them forcefully into the floor kinda negates the whole "paused on the box to eliminate momentum" thing.

  • incredible

  • Impressive as hell. Good job bro.

  • sexual intercracminicy

  • what kinda work outs do you do to jump so high?

  • Watch the video again, you obviously didn't pay attention. Does "explosive strength and isometrics" ring a bell?

  • Don't see how isometrics help with an explosive exercise...

  • HEY FRANK

    JUST STALKING YOU ON YOUTUBE

    You're still my godamn hero. You make me want to be asian.

  • sorry, i just have to delete such an ignorant comment.

  • Human cat right there.

  • it takes alot of work, but can be done.

  • very nice

  • dude WTF!!!

  • dumbasses, this is not the same as talking about an NBA player's vertical. The NBA players vertical is measured by how high their hand touches, not how high a box they can jump on. For these box jumps people raise their legs into a squat, their feet are not really going 58 inches or whatever off the ground.

  • really.. their feet aren't going 58" off the ground? how did they get on the box? and save your time on commenting back, I know the difference between a standing vertical jump and a box jump, but I couldn't help commenting on your ridiculous statement.

  • that was tight

  • michaelo jordan was 6ft6 not 7ft 8 u dumbass

  • Wtf dude. He never said MJ was 7ft8 hes said he was 78", which is the same as 6ft6. Lol

  • someone is stupid

  • man i keep training and all i can do is grab the rim with ease but cant dunk for shit can anyone recommend me something...steroids.lol jp but seriously someone heeellp!!

  • ok i can help alot go watch my video air alert II vertical jump program its works rele good also make sure you are resting your muscles enogh

  • ill check that shit out then see what hap.

  • Very nice!!! AGAIN a high five no need to cover the mouth.. Seems like there's a trend here with decent normal people..I didnt even have to hear juvenile in the background either:)

  • if you see another one of his vids, trains to jump as high as possible... that is why he can do that.

  • "more than 85% palyers in the NBA dont have a 50 inch veritcal "

    no NBA player has ever had a 50" vert, where u get tht shit frm?! lol

  • MJ had a 48inch vert close to 50

  • think about wat u jus said..

    jordan (78") + 48" vert (lol)

    that wud put his head 6" over the rim, from standing. he never even got his head to rim off a running vert..

    standing vert was around 32, moving cud be anywhere up to 38, mayb 40 off of one foot. but deff no where even close to 50.

  • im not gonna get into the discussion but mj had 122 cm vertical jump which is somewhere around 47-48 inches ...

  • read wat i previously typed...

  • n spudd webb said , i repeat SAID that he had 50 inches vertical , a commentator on obn said that also ...

  • so you think people that work for the nba athlete test is lieing? i dont think so i think you should think before you say something and mj can get his head at rim even kobe can almost get head at rim...... and vince def did and he had a 42 incher

  • say wat u say but think about my comment.

    6" over the rim.. from standing

    LOL

    but yh.. vince got into the low 40's for his moving vert.

  • can you dunk?

  • Very nicely done, sitting box jumps are hard hard hard

  • There is no point. What's the point to anything? Let's just say if I play basketball. What's the point to that? YOu coming here and watch my video and leave a comment has more point than my jumping on a box?

  • You fucking fat faggot.

  • damn, fucking ninjas. I could probably do half of that

  • anytime i get a comment saying its fake, its an automatic compliment. I am flattered that and amused at the same time imagining you sitting in front of your computer, watching my little video over and over again so you can feel better about yourself and what you can never accomplish.

  • there really is no point of making another video. Anything captured on video could be fake, I'm not going to go out of my way to prove anything. I have plenty of other videos on here, i'm pretty sure that they are all CG.
