Dakota Royer Ups Jumping-Out-Of-Pool Game

You may remember when video of third-round Bears draft pick Jarron Gilbert jumping out of a pool made its way around the Internet. (It’s over a million views and growing.)

People were impressed because a dude that was pretty large jumped out of a pool. This is not normal. But, Dakota Royer, a high school defensive end/linebacker prospect who has offers from Notre Dame, Michigan State, Penn State, Oregon, Michigan, Wisconsin, Nebraska and several other schools, might have just taken over as king of the pool jump. Gilbert’s was reportedly from a three-foot pool; Royer’s is from a four-foot pool:

This was uploaded to YouTube yesterday, so one can only hope Royer and his buddies decided to film this over Memorial Day weekend, put it up online, and have idiots like me blog about it.

If that’s the case, then mission accomplished, bros.

So boo on James (and Kevin Garnett) for throwing that crap into the air. And kudos to Bryant, who gets his and bends at the waist to lower his hands toward the floor, discreetly dispersing it with slow claps that keep it out of harm’s way.

That's pretty impressive and a lot harder to do than it looks, there is lots of pressure in the water weighing you down

I agree, I have tried doing this before and it is extremely difficult.

One of my local Houston pools had a similar competition once, where you had to sit under water then jump straight up and try to get the highest jump. But whenever I have tried jumping out of a pool like this before I’ve always bashed my knees lol.
