Every time I see a video like this it makes me feel a little more pathetic about my vertical jumping ability. Eighth grader, Mark Vital is only 13-years-old but can already throw it down on a 10′ rim with ease. I remember the first time I dunked was my senior year of high school and I felt pretty accomplished, but seeing this youngster dunk like it’s no big deal is, well, deflating to my ego, to say the least. He reminds me of a LeBron James/Kevin Durant type at his age — flying around the court, making every opponent look slow and lesser in his presence.
The first dunk you see in the video is Vital makings a poster out of this poor middle school kid that probably has no idea what’s coming. After that, it’s just a highlight reel of Vital being a man amongst boys.
