he has great genetics cuse his body adapts so well to his training if you do the exact same exercises as him you will still never have a 56 inch vertical,btw who said he wasn't fast?

man you guys are just sayin what everyone else says, you say his amazing body adapts to vertical jump? think this, imagine since the age 13-14 you try to dunk all the time, until the age of 34! all those years of constant jumping, and a healthy lifestyle, no smoking not even wine! man kadour first dunked when he was 16, and it was an alley oop, that doesn't sound to genetics crazy, hell, I dunked before kadour at the same age and height, im actually 15.

im not saying he didnt work hard but it also takes great genetics to get a 56 inch vertical. the average person could never jump that high no matter how they train, just like the average person could never be an olympic sprinter no matter how hard they train. BTW I said kelly B said it was just great genetics I think its all the intense plyos plus great genetics.

Thats true, the avergae joe can't do that, but none of us are average Joe's, he's was the average athletic kid, always played and trained while he was doing (didn't even know) but he's not a genetic freak, like MJ who doesn't even know how to train yet is the icon for dunking, I met him in Paris we talked to each other in arabic and french he's a good guy, he's funny and all, he was explaining to me about hops and stuff. I'm Algerian too and i have a 34 In. vertical and a 105 lb. squat. he takes dunking as a way of life not to impress a crowd he loves it of course because he's 34 y/o and still doing it.

man no offence but that is bs! if u train u can be anything. redsoxfan15 on here trained himself to a 51 inch vertical jump, if he'd kept going he probably could have gotten to 56. kadours life is jumping, the man stretches for 4 hours every day! just watch and see, one day u will see a vid of me and ill be jumping 50... 23 more inches by the time im 20 or so. just watch

First off you have never seen redsoxfan do a 51 inch vertical jump, second its not true that nothing is impossible stop watching addidas commercials. If you think its all about hard work and not genetics then how come you never see white sprinters in the olympics?

I see white high jumpers, one of the world records is held by someone with white skin, what are you saying...

Isn't it obvious, Im saying that you have to be very naturaly gifted as well as work hard to be a great sprinter or have a 56 inch vertical. Very few people have the body structure to do either, look at all the sprinters they all have the same bone structure and body type.
