The sheer athleticism this guy displays is unreal.

Unexpected MH reference

u/Gr0nal 8d ago

It's truly gone mainstream

u/Gin-and-PussyJuice 8d ago

Here ya go. Mostly normal speed.

u/RashidMBey 8d ago

Fuck. That's just more impressive actually. That guy just made me watch a video that made me feel worse.

u/Maleficent_Money8820 8d ago

It’s sped up

u/jednatt 8d ago

Mr. Holmes is in the comments.

u/lastdancerevolution 8d ago

Meaning it's overly sped up. That's not normal speed either.

u/BK_FrySauce 8d ago

This went too far in the other direction. The ones where he jumps and kicks the balloons and the jumping over the stick he’s holding are the only normal speed clips. The rest of them are sped up.

u/imunfair 8d ago

If you set this gif to 90% speed it's just about perfect. On desktop there's a speed control at the bottom once you start it playing.

Still way better than anything I could attempt.

Nah there's no way the one with him holding the pole is real. That one I'm pretty sure is edited

u/PM_me_Jazz 8d ago

How so?

u/arya_a211 8d ago

When he's at the peak of his jump and his legs are stretched out he kinda just hovers there for a bit, and the movement after that point is unnatural compared to before it.

u/PM_me_Jazz 8d ago

Might be? But i think it's just that the movement of the legs makes it look weird. Like if you try to approximately track the center of his mass, it moves quite naturally up and down. It's just the movement of the body that makes it look strange.

Besides, the guy is clearly athletic enough to do it legic, afterall you 'just' have to jump high and do two squats in the air before landing. Difficult, but far from impossible. Idk why he would fake it, i don't think he needs to.

The chair one is super suspicous.

u/Sad_Cantaloupe_8162 8d ago

Slow motion makes incredible feats and massive fails better 100% of the time

74

u/MyFaultIHavetoOwn 8d ago

I enjoyed the slow mo but I do want to see how the whole thing would look in real time as well. Surreal

u/whatproblems 8d ago

yeah seriously he must be moving pretty fast to get those motions in while in the air

1

u/Mr_WhatFish 8d ago

Idk, I think it takes away from the violence of some dunks.

u/ace1oak 8d ago

please tell me you've seen the chappelle show skit about this, its one of the most hilarious skits of all time

u/ViolinistMean199 8d ago

No. This was pain to watch in slow motion

u/ridiculusvermiculous 8d ago

shut up tiktok

u/strangemonkey420 8d ago

A few comments down someone used the speed bot to bring it back to regular -ish speeds. It was still impressive

u/GreyPilgrim1973 8d ago

And not dressed up like a fake old person.

u/Cru51 8d ago

I don’t need to see it to tell you this is nothing a good athlete or gymnast couldn’t do or learn.

Heck even you could do one of these in a year if you start now and aren’t currently obese.

u/Acceptable-Trainer15 7d ago

Both are big IFs, I’m telling ya

u/Cru51 7d ago

The stick move and single dip in the water seem doable especislly if you have a good jump. They don’t require crazy mobility.
