good example:

<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0fY50o6ZZXA" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0fY50o6ZZXA</a>

rim is also bent down like crazy on a bunch of dunks.. i dno i think it's around 9'10 or so.

most people probably won't care, just curious what everyone thinks here.

Yes , those guys are freaks , they can do crazy dunks on 10' easily...
But those dont look like 10'
Or the guys are taller than what they say.
Im thinking both.
So if someone is ~6' in shoes , he would be ~5'10 barefoot , claiming 5'9'' ,i guess the same for reach , bend or lower the rim 1 to 2 inches too and there you go , you "stole" ~5''.

Not hating on them anyway , its obvious they are all above 45'' RVJ.

it's the biggest trick in the run game.. go slow to go fast. it doesn't make sense until it smacks you in the face and you're like ....... wtf?
