Generally dunks are impressive due to the combination of strength and athleticism required to leap up to a 10-foot rim, while holding onto a basketball. But if you were able to do it without leaving your feet, that would be more impressive.

Paul Tiny, Sturgess, a 7'8. 325-pound mountain of a man accomplished that feat in a video posted a few days ago that has just begun to go viral.

Sturgess is originally from Loughborough, England and didn't start playing basketball until he was 14 years old. He now plays professionally for the Harlem Globetrotters.

Check out the video and be wowed by a man who can hang on the rim, without actually hanging.
