2:30 is my favorite because it's SO HARD to get that right, bouncing it so it's at the limit of your reach both catching and finishing it at the rim with the 360 in there...wow! 3:30 is the greatest assist ever after the elbow pass !!! Man!!!
If his able to do a 720 dunk no one else has even attempted on camera, he is by far one of deadliest Dunkers in the world and perhaps in my opinion the best dunker longside Vc. Let's just give the man a nice round of applause guys. :) even Vince carter probably saw this shit and tripped.
What a smooth motion while he is dunking..To me he remains to be one of the best dunker in the world just because with what ease he did all these dunks and I rarely see it in others on this level of dunking where some of the toughest dunks are done so easily and smooth as butter...
he has the best dunk aesthetic I've ever seen: it's like he just takes off and floats in the air, and then like a magnet finds the hoop at the top of his jump. Amazing body control.
@@Gone-m8x he's better at dunking.... easily actually. Only really followed by VC and Zach Lavine. He's really good at dunking, but yeah he's no NBA player in the rest of his skillset.
Why would anybody dislike this! If you don't like basketball then that no reason to dislike something, just don't watch it! You have to admire his ability. I guess 85 people had 0:48 happen to them or something.
The second song just hit a distant part of my brain that hasn’t been active since the days of watching this as a kid and wanting nothing other than to one day dunk like this guy. Those were the times we all miss. This video just reminded me of the uninterrupted flow state with full determination I and I’m sure many other used to naturally lock in to. Unreal. I think as kids we all have the confidence to believe we can be whatever we put our mind to, nowadays we tend to say we learn that it’s not that way but I think it’s all just perspective. I gotta find a way to lock into that state now at 18yrs old. Still young so it’s gotta be there somewhere lol been moping around doing shit half ass thinking I’m all in trying to convince myself I gave it all I got. Not the case currently taking a dump writing this and I think I can do better even here right now. Definitely haven’t reached full and efficient taking a shit potential gotta lock in.
Damnn, some guys can do dunks like this but, the way Air up there does them just looks crazy. Just looks natural, aesthetically perfect, like he was born to dunk like this.
As a kid I used to think this guy was the best dunker the world had ever seen. While he did have at least a 40 inch vertical, he wasn’t pushing 50 like the best dunkers today are. What separates him was his impeccable body control. The man had the perfect gifts to be a receiver or DB in the NFL. I’m sure he has no regrets though.
I can understand that he doesn't anymore now that he's 30+, but I think it's redicilous that he first did it in 2006 and by 2008 or so he wasn't even able to do this dunk anymore. Unacceptable seeing as how he names himself after the dunk. You'd think he had a bad injury around that time but nope, he was still doing his other dunks in spectacular fashion.
Shyt dat fucked ma head up is dude told me his self he don't do squats when I asked how he trained his legs. He said all he fck wit to train his legs is a jump rope!!
i just love when he does alley oops, the ball can be going in one direction and he'll just grab it and go "ah dah dah dah, you're going over HERE now" and just jam it
Chauvignoul no he isn't he wouldn't be able to pull these dunks off in the NBA. Vince is the best in game dunker of all time. Put some respect on his name
He played college ball, dont remember where but it wasnt a huge name school. He was in the NBA Development league at one point, he won their dunk contest (of course) when he was in it. Is he NBA level talent, probably not...can he ball, yea.
he is 29... and he didnt knick-name himself that, its what everyone else called him... but yeh it would be nice if he still did it every now and then... i wish we could still see VC fly too, guess its time for the new guys to take stage huh.
They should make a dunk package for the next 2k with all his best dunks contact dunks alley oop dunks and off the glass jams and just name it the air up there
Man T.J. been doing this since high school, just back then he was still raw, but now that his body and control have matured...this is crazy to watch son! Big ups to my homey Mr. 720!
this dude is the best dunker I have seen...put him in the nba dunk contest because he would destroy the competition with ease...by the way the kick alley-op at 3:29 was sick nasty...reminds me of NBA STREET.
alot of people dont realize, but getting those types of hops is natural but through everyday activities, such as walking to work, catching the bus to your destination etc. really helps build your jumping and stamina, thats why alot of people who live without cars, or easy transportation seem to have more hops than others, but then again if you do enough suicides, and run enough, you jump will increase by at least 6 in. if not more, w/o any strength training
So smooth when he dunks. On every windmill dunk it looks absolutely effortless.
All his dunks look effortless
Cold wit it
The best dunker to ever live still watch all his videos till this day
Do you know who kadour ziani is right?
@@basketbolmuptelas6539 dont even put him in AUT league your reaching
@@basketbolmuptelas6539 Zianimal was a beast dunker before the 720 dunk, the best in Europe alongside Lipek. AUT, Kilganon, TDub and a few in America.

Damn he should have done the Olympics, definitely would have brought home gold.
Bruh he is the smoothest 360 between the leg dunker ever, seriously show me a clip where he has ever missed a 360 JR Ryder dunk
@@mj23926 him and terríco whites 360 windmills are unmatched.
If I could do this stuff, I'd never leave the gym!
lol
Well, it maybe is because he never left the gym that he can do things like that
never mind XDDD and Infidel Lives Matter XDD
You left to early...
@@jenesaisvraimentpasquoimet8473 nah some people aren't not made to jump that high
so natural, so smooth, yet so swift, powerful and precise. what a dunking machine!!!

When hoop mixtape made quality videos

Still watching it 2023

he has the best dunk aesthetic I've ever seen: it's like he just takes off and floats in the air, and then like a magnet finds the hoop at the top of his jump. Amazing body control.
He's better then the nba stars that we all think are so great.
I can tell that you don't watch basketball very often
@@Gone-m8x he's better at dunking.... easily actually. Only really followed by VC and Zach Lavine. He's really good at dunking, but yeah he's no NBA player in the rest of his skillset.
"The Air Up There" is an ABSOLUTELY AWESOME MOVIE!!
all time favorite dunker and most def greatest dunker
Why would anybody dislike this! If you don't like basketball then that no reason to dislike something, just don't watch it! You have to admire his ability. I guess 85 people had 0:48 happen to them or something.
Still one of the sickest mixes on youtube
this guy is the best dunker i have ever seen for more than 10 years i still haven't seen anyone better
carlos piquet guy dupuy and Jordan kilganon
zion williamson might be
@@AN-xn6qb can jordan kilaganon do a 720 or reverse 360?
Antbeast23 yes he can check his videos
chris staples or jclark

What song is it bro
@@lukegarrigan6950 all songs are mentioned in video
Heavy Heart instrumental produced by iLL Pill / Soul Fresh
Sometimes I come to this video just to listen to the amazing Beats.
Never seen a ref so hyped fse at 1:14
Anytime I Want To See Some Good Dunks I Come Search The MONSTER 🤣💪🏾🔥🔥🔥💯
Hey man how's the weather up there?
I got tired of seeing average hoopers posting their mediocre dunks and their verts on TikTok so I came here to revisit the GOAT
2:19 One of the people at the back was like I’m done
Will always come back to this since the day it was released !!
yup, hands down the best dunker i've seen in my entire life
Mayne oh mayne.....Classic til this day!!!
Whoever chose and made the beats for this video couldn’t have done it any better
Damnn, some guys can do dunks like this but, the way Air up there does them just looks crazy. Just looks natural, aesthetically perfect, like he was born to dunk like this.
3:29 is the most skillfull thing ive ever seen
Lol you were probably young when you wrote this

My second favorite dunker next to Shawn Kemp only!
Easily the best video on the HoopMixtape channel to this day.
NBA should get air up there in the dunk contest to compete.
@Mister Christopher that there trash compare to this guy.
Him and Vince the best 2 dunkers ever
Greatest Dunker of All Time!!!💯👏👏
I can understand that he doesn't anymore now that he's 30+, but I think it's redicilous that he first did it in 2006 and by 2008 or so he wasn't even able to do this dunk anymore. Unacceptable seeing as how he names himself after the dunk. You'd think he had a bad injury around that time but nope, he was still doing his other dunks in spectacular fashion.
I think he could sleep in air...
If this video ever gets taken down I’d cry... I stop by at least 3 times a month to watch this video! My childhood man..😢
this guy it's just AMAZING! Jumps like a pro, dunks better than MJ !!! I'm serious...
he hangs on the rim the best..like his style after the dunk makes it look even better because of how he hangs on the rim..crazy
Damn this was 9 years ago
You nailed it
Dude is the best dunker I have ever seen in any league or forum. Anywhere.
Air Up dunk pack in NBA2k15
Finally a Video with nasty dunks and no bad words. Thanks
Shyt dat fucked ma head up is dude told me his self he don't do squats when I asked how he trained his legs. He said all he fck wit to train his legs is a jump rope!!
+Just Bool it I never would of thought jump roping kould yield those type of results!!
+Just Bool it that's very tru
First watched this video when I was 16 back in 2009.. so nostalgic!
Yo,that's not dunkin...where I'm from that's call YOKIN.
i just love when he does alley oops, the ball can be going in one direction and he'll just grab it and go "ah dah dah dah, you're going over HERE now" and just jam it
He dunks like vince carter...
Krianne Reynoso Lol no. He's way better.
Much better
Chauvignoul no he isn't he wouldn't be able to pull these dunks off in the NBA. Vince is the best in game dunker of all time. Put some respect on his name
A N nah Shawn kemp was better in game
Samin Alam literally most of these dunks were in game

That is my dad he is soo 😎 cool
😎😎😎😎
I agree, he is! And I see you there, AUT!!!
Yeah right
He played college ball, dont remember where but it wasnt a huge name school. He was in the NBA Development league at one point, he won their dunk contest (of course) when he was in it. Is he NBA level talent, probably not...can he ball, yea.
2020 still here. 💚
hes got that vince carter windmill
Seriously these are some great passes
I seen him do this in Boston when I was a teenager … in person it’s even more legendary
His 360 eastbay is nasty
Air up there is the truth.
I miss this era of hoopin. So much style.
he is 29... and he didnt knick-name himself that, its what everyone else called him... but yeh it would be nice if he still did it every now and then... i wish we could still see VC fly too, guess its time for the new guys to take stage huh.

Best Mix ever! Best music and the best dunker!
The thing is this guy doesn't even get as high as a lot of the other big dunkers you see on tv, his timing is almost perfect
@3.36 The Lay-up statue of Liberty 360 dunk crazyy
he jumps so smooth. impeccable power and technique
the editing is so on point!
crasy power in those dunks love the hiegth as well mad skills right here
after watching the first dunk i added this straight to my favourites
Holy Crap! This vid is sick! I mean totally sick!
From the Philippines, with love.
Bro is flying. Best dunker I've seen. It's too effortless; on hardwood, on concrete, however you want it.
2:16...i've watched that like 10000 times and it never gets old
ive played against him. its unreal how high he jumps. crazy..
nice editing, the dunking goes with the song
2023?? He still one of the best to do it
3:28 IS PROBABLY THE BEST ALLEYOOP PASS I"VE EVER SEEN!!
this dude is the best dunker I have seen...put him in the nba dunk contest because he would destroy the competition with ease...by the way the kick alley-op at 3:29 was sick nasty...reminds me of NBA STREET.
I remember meeting Air Up There, Baby Shaq, AO, and Escalade when And1 came to Chicago I think it was between 2005 and 2007 at the United Center
And they didn’t even show his best dunk, the 720!

PUT THIS MAN IN THE NBA ALLSTAR WEEKEND DUNK CONTEST 2010-2011 SEASON VOTE THIS MAN IN!!!!!!!!
effortless
14 years after still watching
I used to love and 1 basketball absolute classic bro
sick style
How is he not in the NBA? no shooting or defense? ... he's amazing no matter what.
Hang time @ 2:18 and I didn't even see the whole upload. I've seen enough. "Freak of Nature." Good Guwd!!
Beautiful passes, seriously.
4:06- Mind you, that was straight up off two legs.
First time I’d ever seen a 360 east bay and still the best looking one to date.
ShitNoOneSays: Hey Air Up There want to have a dunk contest.
this is a blessing
Best dunker I've ever seen! Period.
His hops are INSANE 😮
I like how the ref is all pumped from the dunk too at 1:15 lol
Makes it look easy
