He's On Fire! No, Really, This Dunk Is Actually On Fire

Kenny Dobbs is on fire

It looks like SOMEBODY played a lot of 'NBA Jam' back in the day.


Professional dunker Kenny Dobbs — 'professional dunker' is a thing, apparently — has been filmed throwing down an absolutely ridiculous dunk that would win virtually any NBA Dunk Contest (especially this year's dismal effort).

What did he do that was so great? He just jumped over a guy who was ON FIRE, that's all.

Dobbs actually had to collect the ball from the burning man's grasp on the way up, meaning that the ball itself was ON FIRE, which meant that the hoop was then ON FIRE, which led to the net being singed clean off.





Because we just don't live in a world where basketball players worth millions of dollars are allowed to risk lighting themselves on fire on national television, we'll probably never see something like this in the Dunk Contest. This is something special. 

Of course, it's got nothing on that time an arthritic sea otter dunked a basketball, but still.
