    Default How far can you jump?

    Here is me doing the jumping thing at the zoo a few years ago. I remember calling it 9 feet at the trout, but I could see how someone could argue it was only 8 feet at the grasshopper. Have I posted this before? I might have. Video is slow motion and the jump starts at about 13 seconds.

    That's a bad angle on the kid at the start.

    You know, for as many times as I've watched that video, you'd think I'd have noticed that.

    Forrest, you are a GD genius! You should be a general!

    He would have gotten straight 10's for sticking the landing, however, the French judge would only go 9.7

    I think mine was somewhere around there too. I recently did the jump at the zoo, but I don't remember where I landed. My vertical is pretty wicked for only being 5'8".
