Highlight Reel: ‘Air Up There’ is aptly named

Once upon a time, I could dunk with the best of them. I would rise in the air, float for what seemed like hours, and throw it down with authority. I had the creativity to do tomahawks, windmills, and spins, but the power to cram on your face. I had the hops to dunk over you, and the strength to dunk through you.

And then I woke up.

But for Air Up There, he doesn’t wake up from a dream of outrageous dunks. He does them every day, and he does a lot of them. He’s best known for being the first human being to complete a 720 dunk, but he isn’t just a one trick man.

Check out this highlight reel of just one day of action. Air Up There gets more dunks in one day than most mere mortals get in a lifetime.

My favorite dunk in this reel? The reverse 360 alley-oop he catches :27 seconds into the video. Is that even legal?
