I just found out that there's this guy who's only 5'-8" but can do mad dunks during games. I think he plays for Washington University.
Does anybody know video clips of Nate Robinson dunking? I heard he can leap so high his eyes are above the rim.

Nate, with extraordinary leaping ability, dunked a volleyball when he was in seventh grade. "But it wasn't until the eighth grade that he officially did it (with a basketball)," Jacque said. "He was 5-1 or so."
Nate, who is just a tad over 5-8, has developed into a phenomenal jumper/dunker for the Huskies. He is said to have a 40-inch vertical leap, but given a running start and adrenaline juice, it's higher than that. That was displayed Jan. 29 in the Huskies' home upset of then No. 9 Arizona. Midway through the second half, he slipped behind the Wildcats' bulky inside players for an alley-oop pass from Curtis Allen. He was so high he had to haul it down from behind his right ear for his impact dunk. Teammates across the floor on the bench said they could see Robinson's eyes above the rim.
