This video is amazing, like the Adrian Wilson jumping video. He is a DE prospect in this year's draft out of SJS. I would crack my jaw on the side if I tried this.

Can you imagine how painful this must be if it goes wrong and you bump your pinky toe on the edge of the pool?

That's the only thing i keep thinking about when watching this.

You know, Ryan, you would do the same and not crack your jaw if....there was a Baby Ruth in the pool a la Caddy Shack!

He actually played DT at San Jose State but I guess some teams think he's athletic enough to play DE in the NFL.

He was on ESPN2 today, he said in the summer he measured at 39 inch vertical jump, doesn't know now. He also said someoen on NFL live said 5.2 40 which he called laughable, said I'm running around 4.7 now and hope to get under that at the combine. Also squats and deadlifts 660 pounds or something similar and said his goal is 30 reps at 225 at the combine.

SanJose State was never on tv locally this year so I don't think I saw him play all year, I've read about him in the paper before but he's the classic fast riser he was a 5th rounder when his senior year ended.

You guys are kidding right? He jumps in and they ran it backwards. Look at the splash.

Yeah, if you hadn't been so busy trying to trash my draft, you would have noticed I took him in the third round. The video was also posted there yesterday.

You are right man, it is totally fake. Check out the splash between seconds 1 and 2. Huge white splash on the viewer's right hand side.

Not from his arm?

I don't think it's fake because if it was ran backwards, where did the water come from as he is jumping in. It's coming off of his body when he jumps out. Impossible to fake that.

Exactly. Around 13 seconds when his feet are on the deck there is water around.

Local paper did a story on it this morning that says the coaches have seen him do this, so unless the coaches are in on the fake, it's not fake.

FYI he said he heard Adam Archuleta could do it and decided to try it himself. He did, nobody believed him, so he made the tape of it. THe uncut version apparently included bloopers of teammates trying and failing to duplicate it.

The reversed film theory is impossible, If you look at the water coming off his feet after he gets out, it splashes forward as it should.

That nothing, Michael Phelps said he could do that with one hand tied behind his back and a holding a bong in the other.
