[stevo1357911]

lol 2:39 looks like he got rim checked on that one (;

[djmaster3]

As of right now he just became a Harlem Globetrotter officially!!! Thats crazy!!!

[bobbymartin23]

This was a lot better with the volume turned off

[resrect]

I know how many people can fly....0

[UnitedBasketball11]

hey man how did you make this video slow motion?

[turkqb4]

@UnitedBasketball11 just with windows movie maker effect. i recently got pinnacle which is like an amped up version but better

[L7Putz]

@UnitedBasketball11 While I enjoyed this video very much, the best way to get legitimate slow mo is to shoot at 60p and then slow it down to your preferred frame rate.

[Roman007M]

WOW! I'm same hight but I din't jump that high, when I was younger played all the time unfortunately had a Miniscus in my knee! I wish this Guy the Best! That's beyond Gravity :)

[Fungamesish]

dang white people can jump now days

[sambam2694]

@Fungamesish Exactly white people are now evolving into natural athletes. Not just a few, but many.

[Seabee644]

Good luck with the Globetrotters kid!

[cRockBallin22]

Unreal

[DW3Southpaw]

If he had a 50 inch vert his head would be dead even with the rim.

[tsev24]

@DW3Southpaw it is in his other vids

[utvolsfan1985]

I think my screen is going bad...the guy looks white...I think I need to adjust my contrast/brightness.

:)

[2013074]

5'10' my ass

[MLGR3linquish]

@2013074 yes he is moron should have watched the college dunk contest....

[BigSexyKracker]

dave grohl thinks it wood been better to use learn to fly instead of everlong

[turkqb4]

@BigSexyKracker probably true

[victor1993k]

how much does he squat?

[bosanac01]

@victor1993k 2 fat girls.

[dubmont8]

i know he's white but man you gotta get some slaps for the music.....

[damgdradio]

like this if your watching this because you knew about him before the dunk contestt

[semperfidelis2322]

who said white people cant jump

[triniteen19]

his head dont hit the rim but its close

[p90hartley]

too bad vertical leap alone matters little in the making of a great basketball player

[Mailme81]

@p90hartley This video does not say anyhting about him being a great basketball player. It says Jacob Tucker - illonois etc..

[p90hartley]

@Mailme81 it was an observation that just because you can jump really high doesn't make a player a great "basketball player". Nothing personal about your video. I think the dunks are awesome.

[Cfish79]

@p90hartley check out jacob tucker in game dunks and then say he's not a good player

[Cfish79]

@p90hartley check out jacob tucker in game dunks and it will prove you wrong

[jordankiser33]

i bet he did hurdles in middle school haha

[dirkofyork]

45 inch standing vertical? i think not- lol

[jesmith099]

@dirkofyork He was measured at 46 inches on one of his dunks late in the competition. He's 5"10 that leaves 4 feet at two inches between the top of his head and the basket...That is 4 ft (48in) +2 inches....or 50 inches. Take a look at the scene early in the video in which he jumps without the ball, and gets the top of his head up to the rim.....hmmm, that would be 50 inches, which makes a 45 standing completely possible. The math doesn't lie. Think before you type.

[dirkofyork]

@jesmith099

yea i believe he has a 50 inch running vertical, doesnt mean his standing is 45. i dont think you understand how rediculous that is. and there is no math determining his vertical is 45 inches either because of knowing his running vertical. lol... btw, if you think im going to bicker back and forth with you, you can delete my comment, and think again.

[jesmith099]

@dirkofyork Who has time to bicker about shit like this? I made my comment.

[GEARSOFWAR100100]

if he is good at d-fence, shooting, and ball handling i really hope he makes it to the pros

[KingdomVoice]

The law of fact may say that your right! However Im not even sure of that! However there is a law called faith that trumps the law of fact. Its similar to the relationship between the law of gravity and the law of lift. A plane can defy the law of gravity by opertating with the law of lift. The law of gravity still exist, however not when the law of lift is in action. Even if your facts are true, it doesn't mean a person is bound by fact. Every person is different----Lance Armstrong!!

[deeeeeelightful]

Slam dunk contest winner - RESPECT

[MrTennisdad]

Jacob your a bad ass

[mrbork]

if we're going with foo fighters songs, i think learn to fly would have been more appropriate. this dude is sick tho mad props

[TheCoca84]

There's 3 Haters!!

[JJAM10001]

impressive!! but T dub and Troy mccray are better and shorter. this guys amazing though, wish I could do some of those dunks

[SeanMcFarlandMusic]

everybody!!!!! check out my JAcob TUCKER song my CHANNNELL!!! this is not spam or what ever .THANKS!!

[Ahern28]

@nicka52 u r the one they call dumbass

[nicka52]

question, it says his vert is 50 inch off 2 feet, this would mean he could hit his had on the rim (5'10+50inch= 10 ft) but he doesnt even really come close to doing this, so are you sure its 50 inches?

[benriche6]

@nicka52 He's putting more energy into horizontal translation than he is verticality on most of these dunks. In the video he posted himself, he does get the top of his head rim level. I believe in Jacob Tucker.

[Arsinek1]

@nicka52 did you even watch the video? :14 he touched the rim with his head.

[warriorbasketball23]

It dont even look real when he jump. that dude got straight bunnies

[njrun]

mad hopps

[bsleagles36]

has his mom told him yet that he's 1/2 black and 1/2 pogo stick??

[imawsomebrian]

this makes me want to try and do this. this is amazing..beyond amazing!

[itsVINCEC]

Can he Shoot?

[afton23]

the average black guy has a way higher vertical, than the average white guy. But the average white guy has a way better bank account..which is better than any vertical

[pupocas]

This is sick (big step for white guys:) but dunkers like Tdub finishes the dunk with the head so much higher.. Despite that I am impressed 2handed wind mill, 360 between the legs NICE! + pretty much all of those dunks are 2 handed so I reckon he cant hold the ball with one hand which makes ir even more difficult

[pupocas]

This is sick (big step for white guys:) but dunkers like Tdub finishes the dunk with the head so much higher.. Despite that I am impressed 2handed wind mill, 360 between the legs NICE!

[Youngheinz]

Not all black people can dunk

[LetGetMoneyNigga]

white boy can jump haha

[123merf]

Wow this kids amazing! Keep it up Jacob!

[therealmawman]

All this whiteboy stuff is bullshit, im 5'4 when i played competitively i had a 39 inch vertical that was 95-99.i never even knew about plyometrics back then i havent played in over ten years just started back at training 4 weeks ago. im 28 at least 36 pounds over weight. week one couldnt touch the backboard, week 4 missing the rim by about an inch. then i injured my ankle ligaments last week. when im back after the injury ill be training hard so i can add inches and dunk. and im white,yo

[PatriotTK421]

I'm 5'11" and could do a lot of different dunks. 3 ACL reconstructions later-not so much anymore. This cat takes it to a whole new level. Everyone one of those dunks is more than impressive. Keep it up brother! But take care of your body too. That stuff is tough on shorter guys.

[XxHomieChasexX]

2 black kids cant dunk

[babyprime70]

LOL...black kid's have been flying for years.......this kid can jump...the ONE out of 465,635,000 white in the world....I like the video, but the music suck...try this

[T1memaster]

@babyprime70

who cares dumbass? Average black person jumps higher, you happy? There's more white lawyers, doctors, rocket scientists, physicists, etc.

[Brob45]

yo im from madison i dont remember u but nice hops son

[LtakeOanotherVlookE]

his knees are gonna b fuked in 3 yrs!

[mudpuddle16]

@LtakeOanotherVlookE Why?



[blackhawk1994]

@LtakeOanotherVlookE because he jumps high?.... that makes sense

[LtakeOanotherVlookE]

@blackhawk1994 why the fuck do you think all NBA athletes run into knee problems sometime during their basketball careers? You've never played basketball, if you did you'd know how dentrimental basketball is to your knees. 

[rawlol6]

@LtakeOanotherVlookE oh well thats enough time to make money!

[plowman990]

@LtakeOanotherVlookE doubt it

[KingdomVoice]

@LtakeOanotherVlookE Im 30 years old and haven't dunked in ten years until this past month, after 4 weeks of vertical training! Tucker is 21! His knees will be fine for a long time!!!! As are mine!!!!

[LtakeOanotherVlookE]

@KingdomVoice idk man, just look at Blake Griffin, he's already had a bad knee injury, and he hasn't been in the NBA that long . . .

[n0rv33zy]

@KingdomVoice

how tall are you ???

[jesmith099]

@n0rv33zy It says that he is 5'10"...during the video.

[Mailme81]

@LtakeOanotherVlookE Who cares. Go hard son.

[JeffblinkHardy]

@LtakeOanotherVlookE He lands soft enough more than half the time. I think he'll be fine. Guy is smart.

[L7Putz]

@LtakeOanotherVlookE negative NANCY!

[jneil5458]

Who said white guys cant jump... Bullshit y'all.

[nauris705]

your alright with me brother

[bhs86redass]

If its white, it's right.....

[h2osplash]

Thumbs up if you saw this video before the dunk contest but just realized this was the him.

[GuerillianUnion]

I saw this dude at a playoff game and he was warming up and i was thinking damn that fucker can jump.

[23tmasta]

[RJJR4COCK]

[Ulot3]

[acv318]

[elonisdyu]

DAT LIL WHITE BOY CAN JUMP!!!!!! he defeats all odds!!

[MrOKCThunder18]

Hes tought himself to jump 5 more inches by himself?? now there is a smart man

[oodles86]

Hey Jacob that's impressive, have you always jumped so high?

[nauris705]

Wow, this unbelievable. A white boy who can jump. Whats next?An Asian who can drive, maybe a Mexican with papers, or a Black with a degree.I m sick of people acting so shocked as if this is some super white kid with negro powers. White people are athletic too. He's just lucky to have Youtube at his dispense.

[mauricebobb]

@nauris705 You're a friggin' racist fuck. Please do the world a favor and kill yourself

[toymachine1027]

@nauris705 im a mexican and i have papers rollin papers haha

[lewistown4]

He is 5'10 no doubt about it. Sportscenter claims it. The college rooster claims it. The dudes 5'10

[tcbamaboy1223]

Dunk contest champ what haws

[McQuizzy]

Like This If your watching this because of the Dunk Contest

[cameron6244]

Damn

[eleesmith]

im watchin u now on the dunk contest.as a 5'11" dude that could dunk back in da day,im watchin u and rootin 4 you.good luck

[sneal67]

Wonder what he did to get his vertical so high?? What were his workouts?? Or is it just good genes??

[MrComet21]

john tuckers little brother?

[dskillz20s]

ridculous. illest white boy ever...... stand-up!!!!!!!

[Willbeem24]

Im 5 11 and white. I could dunk in 9th grade. This kid does have mad ups. I could windmill dunk off two feet only. Im a vert jumper, one foot doesnt work as well for me. My vert was tagged at 43 inches. This kid will destroy the other guys tonight in the dunk competition. My money is on Jacob. I'm going to have to dust off my old vhs videos of myself dunking and post them. This guy has inspired me to show the world of you tubers my white boy can jump days.lol...

[eleesmith]

@Willbeem24 then post that shit.i like to see little muthaphuckas gettin up.white or black

[Juice20000428]

Who else thinks he will destroy the slam dunk contest tonight?!

[Hilladam161]

He definitly deserves a spot in the 2011 dunk contest for sure..

[tarheel32blue]

Lol he missed the very last dunk. Still impressive.

[robertgeiken]

He's gifted!

[bigboy9153]

imagine if he were 6'5"....

[ks5965]

he should try the high or triple jump

[MrSolarStar]

He can dip 50 inch naw no human can jump 50 inches off the ground T-dub is a few inches shorter and can jump way higher and can dunk way better but he do got lift

[DoubledUpIrish]

@MrSolarStar If you are 5'10 and can touch the rim with your head then you have a 50" vert. just got to do the math.

[garyc0713]

only if i could do that

[Mr1st2B]

who said white man cant jump?? daaamn

[zippyman818]

Jacob Tucker was just on CNN *LIVE* and he's 5'10" in bare feet, 5'11" in his shoes.

The dude can LEAP!

[ghostRs1]

Sht I live in Jacksonville ill

[stryker914]

the rim is def 10 feet

[Erekai]

Kid's got some major hops.  Impressive.

[darthsmurfer]

If you want to know how high he is jumping, just look at where his head is before he jumps and then where his knees are. If he's close to 6', then his knees are about 75% of his body height. 75% of 6' (72 inches) is 4'5" (54 inches). So the 50" vertical is about right.

[darthsmurfer]

@darthsmurfer Now, for a guy who is 5'10" (70 inches), 75% is 4'4" (52.5 inches).

If the guy is 6'9" (81 inches, as someone mentioned, then 75% is roughly 5'1" (60.75 inches).

To be 100% accurate, just figure out measuring points on his body before he jumps (top of head) and after he jumps (where head was and what body point hits the same spot with body contortion taken into account) and then the percentage of the body that's below that point.

[amafolas]

@randomperson331 you are an idiot! go read my explanation again. This guy is either 6'9" or he is dunking on a 9ft rim in that still pic at 0.16secs. yeah his head is nearly touching the rim. ON A 9FT RIM!!!

[dcsharp1328]

The dunk at 1:34 was sick

[MelanieFelonie]

His brother used to be my Art Teacher. This guy has mad skills, and he is fine. Team Jacob!!!

[PTVFilming123]

redbull is mutated in his blood 50% Black boy 45% and 5% white

[basher2209]

Jacob Tucker is now on Twitter! Look for and follow him!

[alieninventions]

Kid sky's, but none of these leaps are 50 inches. 4 feet is 48 inches.  Hes just under 6', his head needs to clear the rim to be 50 inches. Im not saying he cant, but I would like to see him do it. 1 leap, without the ball, poke that forehead over the rim.

[McFTubeVideo]

Do the math: 5'10" + 50" = 10' The rim is 10' off the ground. This is incredible.

[145bobby]

@alieninventions yea it's 48 inches

[randomperson331]

@alieninventions 50 inches, as in thats the absolute highest he canjump when tryting to jump his absolute highest not when hes trying to dunk, he hit his head on the rim in this vid, therefore he did jump 50 inches.... jesus fucking christ how many times am i gonna have to explain this to people

[FudgePro]

2012 NBA SLAM ALL-STAR SLAM DUNK CONTEST WINNER......J. TUCKER!!!! HIS HOPS ALONE IS NBA WORTHY!!!!

[samdoe1000]

EVERYONE WHO READS THE COMMENTS LOOK UP HENRY BEKKERING ON THE BEST DAMN SPORTS SHOW PERIOD. ITS HILARIOUS!!!!!! DUDE IS 6'8" TRIES TO JUMP OVER BRIAN BOSWORTH WHO IS SITTING ON A STOOL I WAS GAGGIN JUST AT THE FACT THIS WAS SUPPOSED TO BE IMPRESSIVE THEN HENRY DOESNT EVEN COME CLOSE TO CLEARING HIM!!!!! LOOK AT THE RIM TOO ITS BENT DOWN!!!!! ITS LIKE ONE LONG BLOOPER REEL

[samdoe1000]

Furthermore the debate is laughable Jacob Tucker has all kinds of national exposure now for these videos and the ONLY reason I know who Henry Douchebag is cuz I clicked on a video claiming he is the best WHITE streetball dunker ever(not sure what race has to do with it) He was at the local Plainsville USA park with dudes gettin out of the way, they clearly ranged in age, (obviously just threw a game together) comparable to the gay 15YO WHITE BOY DUNKS 10FT RIM shot by the kids mom vids WHACK!!

[samdoe1000]

LOLOLOL @VCthaGOATdunker your on here sayin everyones a retard and dunking has nothing to do with height correct me if I'm wrong but isnt something more impressive if it has a higher difficulty level. Your ass-backwards your saying Henry has more hangtime and Jacob jumps low??? He'd clearly have to jump higher than Henry to do these dunks with nearly a foot height difference. I'm really starting to wonder if you ARE Henry

[bommergirl32]

leego Tuck(:



[Shannon6409]

I've played ball for 25years and never seen anything like this!!

[elvisuptown1]

dunk machine!

[Bmoneylamm101]

This guy clearly has the vertical they say he does, idk how you all can think he doesn't. Your retarded.

[Bmoneylamm101]

@spooker112 the highest vertical ever recorded is a 61 inch. Lol

[rejecter1]

gayest song in the world

[samdoe1000]

Henry Bekkering is wack hes 6'8" itd be rediculous if he couldnt do that and apparently @VCthaGOATdunker hasnt watched the whole video or any other of Tucker's videos cuz he does 360 between the legs and behind the back except its impressive because hes 5'10"-5'11"

[samdoe1000]

LOL its funny when people are saying its not a 10ft rim.........Hes going to the NCAA dunk contest wouldnt make much sense to try to be on national t.v.and get humiliated if you couldn't do this on a 10ft rim

[jsvenny31]

@samdoe1000 haha, so sooo true! They say it's hard to believe what you can't see...and yet in this age, we really CAN see this kind of stuff, and people still don't believe it! Ridiculous.

[jsvenny31]

So who is better...this guy, or Henry Bekkering?

[VCthaGOATdunker]

@jsvenny31 Henry can go behind the back or even 360 between the legs. I don't see this guy doing any of that. Henry is the best Aryan dunker ever I believe.

[mrJoe8423]

@VCthaGOATdunker No way Henry is atleast 6'5, 6'6. there is a vid Jacob does a 360 through the legs all kinds of shit.

[VCthaGOATdunker]

@mrJoe8423 that makes Henry a better dunker. Dunking is not about the smallest man jumping high. It's about making the best dunks and making them look the best and being original. And his dunks look better because he can actually reach the rim and slam the ball through the hoop cleanly. This Tucker kid has one of the worst styles I've seen even for white dunkers.

Henry's best dunks are 360 rider, behind back, windmill over person. tell this guys best dunks?

[randomperson331]

@VCthaGOATdunker this guy can do every dunk you named

[mrJoe8423]

@randomperson331 lol Im sayin!!!!

[mrJoe8423]

@VCthaGOATdunker Well I and im sure just about everybody totally disagrees with you. Jacob is better in my opinion. Nothing at all wrong with his style if you ask me. I think he dunks the ball very clean honestly ecspecially for his size. and lol every single dunk you named there at the end jacob did. So I ask again how is henry better? Look up Jacob Tucker 2011 dunk video!!! and eat your words

[VCthaGOATdunker]

@mrJoe8423 Because you don't know shit about dunking. All you can say is "well, my boyfriend Tucker is better" with no details. So you can only disagree. Look at how low he jumps with no hangtime when he dunks. Bekkering has wayyy more hangtime, this guy is back to the ground too soon. His dunks look ugly. They lie about his vert etc.

[mrJoe8423]

@VCthaGOATdunker

[mrJoe8423]

@VCthaGOATdunker In one of his vids he leeps up to get a ball and is looking straight at the rim eye level. 5'11 plus eye level at the rim equals what? a 50 inch vertical you jackass. He does every single dunk you said your boy can do except Henry's ass is a damn foot taller. go to the vids of jacob now and not when he was 16 yrs old like this video. If a 6'8 guy cant come up with a dunk a 5'10 guy can't do which is better and more impressive? same dunks and a foot in height difference....!?

[VCthaGOATdunker]

Show me the vid. I bet you it´s a deceiving angle so your punkass thinks he´s at `eye level`.

And if both these guys can do the same dunk, it´s about who does the dunk better. Not who is the shortest guy you retards. You absolute morons have such a fetish with height it´s pathetic. Dunking is about dunking, not about height. Not about head at rim etc. It´s about the dunks. Your boyfriend here is too short to make the dunks look good, and he doesn´t have the hangtime like tdub to make up for it

[mrJoe8423]

@VCthaGOATdunker Like I said Look up Jacob Tucker 2011 dunk video

[mrJoe8423]

@VCthaGOATdunker like I said Look up Jacob Tucker 2011 dunk video
