DISCLAIMER : Yes , those guys all jump and dunk insanely , they can dunk 10' in their sleep etc

But head over rim at every dunk? Looks way too easy to be ~50''

What do you guys think?

Yea look at that block attempt at 1:03... one step with head over the rim, that guy is pretty tall but his feet don't get that high. Looks like 9'6.

We had such a rim at the court we play, it was originally 10' and it started slowly collapsing ( imagine those long horizontal bars getting just a slight bend , like 0,5 degrees , not visible but still there ). When it reached 9'8'' they replaced the whole thing.

Back to the thread , here's how a 6'4'' man looks under a 10' rim , and how legit 50''+ look like:
