      • sovereign3, on 07/21/2008, -0/+230 second ad for a 4 second clip?
      • TreatsTheBear, on 07/21/2008, -1/+2That youtube one is way better than the main article.
      • KittySpark1es, on 07/21/2008, -2/+1Why do 50%+ of break.com videos or just videos made by someone in the 12-21 year old range find it necessary to slo-mo everything for no reason at all?
      • jemka, on 07/21/2008, -0/+4@KittySpark1es
        1. Videos can't "find it necessary" because they are inanimate.
        2. Some people like the slow motion. Its much more efficient to watch one slow motion clip than have to replay the original five times. Especially when details and speed are a factor.
        3. If I asked the people on the internet if they would like to see me hit you over the head in real time speed only or if they would like to also see several slow motion speeds, I'm sure many would want me to hit you over the head in real slow motion. Especially the part where your high pitch scream is lowered to a grumble on the slow motion replay.
        4. Profit.
    • soulonfire928, on 07/21/2008, -0/+1Was it really necessary to replay that a million times in slow-motion? I think I got it the first 3 times.
    • Greengoo, on 07/22/2008, -0/+1I was hoping it was the infamous "trampoline slam dunk fail (you know the one with the leg and his friends laugh? yah that one)"

      http://youtube.com/watch?v=meDBd8-e4Rc
  • st0ney, on 07/21/2008, -5/+4Weak he didn't even dunk
    • jemka, on 07/21/2008, -0/+4Hence "fail".
    • ngmcs8203, on 07/21/2008, -0/+3He couldn't even reach the rim without using the wall. On top of that he thought he could do a pull-up on a standard 4-bolt rim. No springs/hydraulics=no dunking (unless you want to seriously hurt yourself.)
  • Jumpeplowski, on 07/21/2008, -0/+63Usually when you do a slam dunk you have a ball in your hands.
  • kh99, on 07/21/2008, -2/+0
  • HumanGlitch, on 07/21/2008, -1/+3I've seen better dunks in a dunkaroo
  • paulot, on 07/21/2008, -11/+3That's because white guy's can't jump.
  • MikeSetera, on 07/21/2008, -0/+8Buried for failure to connect.
  • gfxluvr, on 07/21/2008, -1/+58I hate doubleviking.com
    • Larsonal777, on 07/23/2008, -0/+1I hit replay to watch that fail again and had to watch ANOTHER ad.
    • Monkeydew06, on 07/23/2008, -0/+1Aww come on! You don't want Step up 2 on Blu-ray? It's the #1 Dance movie of the year!
  • revscat, on 07/21/2008, -4/+4Ummm, how did HE fail?
  • cricketsymphony, on 07/21/2008, -0/+9... created an error in the MySQL database.
  • bicyclethief, on 07/21/2008, -1/+2...and that's why break-away rims were created.
    • TreatsTheBear, on 07/21/2008, -2/+1and that's not what they meant when they created them.
      • bicyclethief, on 07/21/2008, -0/+2Break away rims help prevent the backboard from shattering or the rim from coming off (like in the video) when people hang on them, usually for dunks.

        http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/si_blogs/basketba ...

        I'd love to hear what you think they were meant for.
      • KJSatz, on 07/22/2008, -0/+1No, you misunderstood him. The "that" Treats discussed was the the same "that" YOU referred to--the rim actually breaking...away...from the backboard (instead of that bendy kind).
  • Apokalyps2547, on 07/21/2008, -0/+3When will people learn?!
    Never hold on. It doesn't even look cool and you will break something (likely yourself).
  • mnemy, on 07/21/2008, -0/+2530 second commercial for 3 second clip. To replay the 3 second clip you have to watch the ad again. Buried. Find a better video host.
    • priceless721, on 07/22/2008, -0/+4i was thinking the exact same thing that was the biggest waste of time, i watched a gamestop commercial telling me about good deals there, i used to manage a freakin gamestop i know how big of a ripoff it is, don't lie to me.
    • bales, on 07/22/2008, -1/+1wierd, i didn't get any ad at all...
    • Larsonal777, on 07/23/2008, -0/+1I got 2 different ads... both a waste of my time
  • cusoman, on 07/21/2008, -10/+5Typical Digg reader #1: FAIL?

  • crobarian, on 07/21/2008, -2/+4page fail! need mirror
  • fas2, on 07/21/2008, -0/+1Frontpage with only 65 diggs is just wrong. And I don't care what mighty digger might have dugg it.
  • joemofo214, on 07/21/2008, -0/+1any mirror out there?? or a youtube link?
  • psayre23, on 07/21/2008, -2/+10Any one else get this error?

  • cl2yp71c, on 07/21/2008, -1/+1Next time, he'll know to pay up and choose a better gym.
  • penguirl, on 07/21/2008, -0/+2Don't bother with a mirror, as already stated it's a 30 second commercial for 3 seconds of lame. Double buried.

  • gradivus, on 07/21/2008, -1/+9KEEP FILMING FOR LONGER THAN 1 SECOND AFTER THE ACCIDENT YOU IDIOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! God damn do I hate a good fail video with ZERO follow up on what happened. Keep ***** filming you twit, post the whole video.
  • vishusdelishus, on 07/21/2008, -0/+0I have witnessed the exact same thing at the local Y...same wall jump, same rim-snap, same landing. The 'slap' his body made when it hit the floor was heard even outside the gym. So was the sound of his shattering dignity.

    Still, ***** hilarious though.
  • PEMDAS, on 07/21/2008, -0/+1I love that the guy filming goes "Whoooo!" when his friend makes contact with the ground.
  • anttanant, on 07/21/2008, -1/+630 seconds of ad followed by 5 seconds of footage. Awesome.
  • jetblackz4, on 07/21/2008, -0/+1What, was break away rims not yet invented?
  • joshuasmaximus, on 07/21/2008, -0/+2A kid at my college did that in our student gym and hit is head on the ground. He died 1 hour later. If you cant jump straight up and hit the rim with your forearm then stick to layups.
  • ruforealz, on 07/21/2008, -0/+4He faked the funk on a nasty dunk.

    Also, you NEED A BASKETBALL to call it a dunk.
  • petebert, on 07/21/2008, -0/+4i would digg if the 5 second video didnt require a 30 second commercial even for a replay.
  • mag4mag, on 07/21/2008, -0/+2I don't think anything serious happened to him.
  • chrism1128, on 07/21/2008, -2/+3FAIL = GAY
    get a new hipster term, that one just isn't cool
    • javip, on 07/22/2008, -1/+2you fail
    • jankind, on 07/22/2008, -0/+1Come on man. You aren't supposed to have independent thoughts on here. Just repeat all the things the other sheepies say and you'll get the little green thumb.

      In other words: Buried for FAIL
      Losers
  • Britney90210, on 07/21/2008, -2/+1LOL FAIL DUNK!
  • deaftly, on 07/21/2008, -0/+4"WHEO!"
  • ethon, on 07/21/2008, -0/+2Didn't even watch it because of the pre-roll video ad. Weak, and buried.
  • dracostimpy, on 07/21/2008, -1/+1Too bad that Heath Ledger's dead, because he woulda been great in a remake of "The Basketball Diaries". Or "Hoop Dreams". I bet he'd be awesome as a 7 foot African in "The Air Up There". One thing's for sure... Heath got game!
  • jattsona, on 07/21/2008, -1/+1I swear drunk, I wasn't coach!
  • secondfiddle, on 07/22/2008, -0/+1Clean up on isle stupid.
  • ChunkyLover36, on 07/22/2008, -0/+0I've noticed a pattern in these acts of stupidity. Young. White. Male.
  • jsnchmpn, on 07/22/2008, -0/+0These videos tick me off. You see the initial accident, then they cut off. I wanna see the guy go into a siezure or something. That's the best part. Why else would I want to see someone get hurt?
  • P522, on 07/22/2008, -0/+0That's failure, not fail
  • BeachHouseChris, on 07/22/2008, -0/+2I had to watch a 30 sec ad before a 5 sec clip....NBND (not buried, not dugg)
  • stephengotlost, on 07/22/2008, -0/+1He does suck at dunking, he doesn't even have the ball!
  • Gl4di4tor, on 07/22/2008, -0/+1And that dunk is called the Christopher Reeves Slam...what? too soon?
  • lazerflesh, on 07/22/2008, -1/+1ooooo, his shoulder, ouch
  • chameleon777, on 07/22/2008, -0/+1...had to watch a 30 second commercial before watching a 5 second clip?
