Can he still dunk at age 54? 

Take pride in THIS dunk. there shouldnt be anyone who isnt impressed with this dunk. You're 54 bro. This is an amazing feat. keep up the good work!

To dunk at 6-2 is no easy feat . . . To dunk at 6-2 and 54 years of age is an OUTSTANDING achievement! Nicely done!

Yo, i have just 40 years old and I am 6'2. I used to play basketball and also used to dunk. I have always thought that once you reach late thirties, your basketball life is over. You, sir, have inspired me to keep going. Seeing you do this at 54 years old is nothing short of AMAZING AND INSPIRATIONAL. Well done!!!!

The younger generations won’t appreciate how great this accomplishment is. In high school and university I could do windmills, through the leg, all sorts of trick dunks … easy. At 42 I have to work to dunk and they are no better than the ones thrown down here. If I can dunk this well at 54 I’ll be more than happy.

Great job...I am 50 and 6'2"...192 pounds...I can't get up like you anymore, but working out again so I will try in 30 days

My last dunk was December 17th, 1999. So I literally have not dunked since the last millennium. I was 31 but to be fair I am a disabled Marine so...

Great work!! It’s been great seeing your progress these last few months!

THIS made my year!!! So AWESOME Tom! If this doesn't bring 200 viewers, the rest of the world is just missing out!

Hell Yes that is 100% a slam. Man this is inspiring!! Great job man!

Pure inspiration! Well done, my friend.

Fantastic stuff, this is very very impressive. It's well documented that Power and speed development truly have a window to around 30 years old, but you have really extended that. Congrats

Thank you for this video! This is very inspiring!

48yo 6' former dunker now with repaired left Achilles (guess what the surgeon said it was from) and relocated right foot. I still play but don't even try layups because of how relatively week my left foot is now. This gives me some inspiration to try to lighten and strengthen up and see if I can start jumping off of two feet to get back up there. Thanks for sharing!

I’m 39 years old going, 6’4” play basketball all the time, I used to be able to get my elbow above the rim, I havnt dunked in a long long time, my hats off for you, keep fighting Father Time

Well done man!! 44 here, was close to dunking again this year after 14 years and I sprained my ankle big time. Back to the grind…

That is great, man!!! To dunk at age 54 is incredible and very few others can do it, if any. I am 5'11" and have dunked one time in my life. At age 21 down at the YMCA, everything went right and I did it. Never happened again, but it's still in my memory bank. Nice going.

Kudos! That is very impressive! I'm 5' 5" so was never able to dunk. But when I was 16-17, I was able to touch the rim. Now I'm 46. Maybe if I train for a few years, by the time I'm 50, I may be able to touch the rim again. Time to start by losing about 40 lbs 🙂

I am 45 and my feet turned so bad that i have Problems walking. Played 10 years on high level basketball. So a dunking at that age is just incredible to me.

You motivated me for my fitness goals thank you

Great video! Sucks getting old. I can’t get up like I used to but I’ll still go shoot around and work on handles and jumpers, reliving past glory!

Inspiration! I’m 47 and haven’t dunked in 20 years. Great editing too!

That dunk looked awesome. Lets keep em coming!

I am 44 years and 5 foot 8. I dunked a pickle ball when I was in HS (age 18). I find this video very inspiring. I am not sure if I can ever dunk but I will try to touch a 10 foot rim. That alone would be a great accomplishment in itself for my age.

Good on you....That is damn impressive. I used to have a 39"-40" vertical and could dunk in game, two hand, etc at 5-11. I am your age now, and my vert is probably 20" max. Can't eve touch the rim. Depressing. I used to literally just bounce and getting height was so easy. Not any more...that "springyness" just goes away with time.

✊🏾impressive! Going to try my annual attempt pretty soon too.

My man! 10/10 Great job and thanks for the motivation!!!

Man, congrats. I'm 51 and can still barely touch Rim. No way could I dunk. I used to be able back in the day. Great job. 👍

This was hilarious 😂 You def get your props. I need to get out there and wow my nephews before its too late... youve given me renewed hope

That's amazing man. Still getting up like that make or miss is amazing.

Massive respect to you sir!

Good work, inspirational big time, keep up the good work!!!

Woo hooo!!! That’s what I call true motivation 💯🙌🏾🏀

That's super impressive! Nice work.

I've got a similar goal to you. I'm 6'1" and still dunking at 45 yo. Every year I make sure I can still do it. I think 50 is realistic. We'll see.

Congratulations! That's amazing!

Your doing great, keep it up!

Love this! Hope I make a video like this when I’m 54, well done 🎉 👍🏆💪

Damn that's impressive, I'm 16 and can't dunk

When i was fifty i was gonna work out and try and dunk it again, just so i could say i could dunk at fifty, i was a one leg dunker, but i was afraid i was gonna bust up a knee trying to make moves my body was no longer use too, so i chickened out, I'm very impressed by you at 54!👍

Very inspiring!

That was well done, partner... You inspire me, man... Now I know it's possible... In my mid 40s and I believe I can do it too. Thanks for the encouragement 🙏 God Bless YOU partner.

Good stuff ! Salute

I'm 46 and haven't dunked since I was 32. I completely wrecked my left leg in a church pickup game playing against some college kids. The game got heated and I dunked all over a kid that played for Villanova back then. I tried it again and didn't end well the second time lol. Had a 6 hour surgery and the doctor told me back then that I'd never play again. 3 travel team championships later I'm training both my boys and they both can play. I'm still in pretty good shape but can't dunk anymore. The lift is gone since that surgery. But can still get rim pretty easy. Great video my man.

That was fantastic!

Great job. Good foot work

This is honestly so impressive for 6'2 at 54, I know many athletic people in their 20s who are 6'2 to 6'4 and can't dunk!

6'3" here. There was only about a 2 year period during my late 20s where I could dunk cleanly (i.e., off the dribble). I'm 61 now and can still shoot the lights out but fatigue quickly and won't even consider trying to dunk. Really should be doing more stretching and preventative maintenance but was never good with that stuff. Good for you staying fit enough to keep going strong.

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSIR OGGGGGGGGGGGGGG YOU DID IT NOW ITS COMEBACK SEASON TIME!!! YOU GONNA BE THE HEALTHIEST ONE IN YOUR GROUP BY THE TIME YOU'RE ALL 80 AND AND ABOVE LETS GOOOOOOO

i stopped dunking almost immediately when i entered the workforce. it was like my body knew it had to become a fat lazy non-hooper guy lol. great vid and very motivational.

Impressive stuff. I know a bunch of guys that are in awesome shape in their late 40s and early 50s. They still play basketball multiple times a week. None of them would come close to dunking.

Would love to know the exercises you did by the way! Maybe a video about them?

super impressive man!! you can seriously jump💯

I know how you feel. I've always wanted to dunk and now almost 50, I believe if I put in the work, I'll get there.

Dang thats so impressive Props to you man

Nice! So fin. Congrats

The algorithm brought me here. Excellent dunk!

Wow! You still got hops! Great video.....

You’re 6’2?! That’s impressive! I’m 6’2 and I just turned 48 and I doubt if I can dunk a sock! I haven’t dunked since my early 30’s so I am thoroughly impressed with this! I thought you were 6’6. Impressive.

I haven't dunk Lord knows..this really encouraged me. I'm not 50 but mid way near it. I might try to dunk this weeking seeing this😊

Looked like a real dunk to me. Bravo 👏

That’s sick bro for real!

Super cool very inspirational

I like the way your brain works with the editing. Very similar to myself. But when it comes to physical abilities at over 50 yrs old ya mops the floor with me 😆

Great Job 👍 WIN WIN !!! 😁👍

Amazing. Keep it up. I could only imagine your leaner dunk at 25-30.

I turn 55 in 3 days. This is awesome . I am about 6’1”. You have given me a new goal

I'll never forget the first time I went straight up off both feet and grabbed the rim. It came as a surprise because the best I could do is barely touch rim with one hand. It's an amazing feeling to accomplish. I was a junior in high school at 5'10". It wasn't until 3 years later at 6'0" age 19 i started dunking with a 39 inch vertical. It's hard getting there and once I accomplished that feat, I gave up after about a 3 week period of dunking. Never in a game but it was a goal of mine as a kid.

That was awesome!! Great job!! 💪🏾😁... I turn 48 next month and my wife won't let me even try anymore 😂! I was dunking consecutively 5 years ago. Our friends and family are popping their achilles' so she's like keep your ass on the ground😂

That's good going man! How tall are you? I'm just under 6'3", 43 and can still dunk. It's really surprising how many just count themselves out of being able to dunk (and ar life in general) when they reach a certain age! I feel you can inspire others as to what's possible and I'd just like to say to anyone reading this KEEP GOING!!!

Well done, bro 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

That's impressive as fuck, even the misses.

Keep going brother 💪🏿 2 hand dunk next!

Well done video, Bravo! How or where, did you acquire movie clips to b roll into this? I'm learning video currently (totally new and I'm horrible so far) and using KineMaster app

Thats very impressive! Gives me hope that i’ll still be able to dunk as i get older

Beast that’s dope you can still dunk like that but I gotta say the thumbnail looked like you were taking off from the free throw line 😅

If I even say that work, my knees start hurting. Greab job, bro.

I’m 59 and I feel like I’m 18. But I’m only 5’ 10”. However, I can bench 300 lbs pretty easily. And at 50 I was squatting 495 lbs twice with no belt, and I weighed 250 pounds. Don’t let age trick your mind into thinking you’re old! I workout 45 minutes six times a week burning over 780 calories on an elliptical machine. You just have to keep MOVING! Great dunk. Come back at 60 and do it again!

50+ year olds are different now than they were back then. Nice job!

Very impressive!!! #NewSub💪🏿

With Mr. Miyagi, everything is possible. 🙂👍🏼

Great job man..im 56 and no way I don't even think I can touch the rim any more. Again Great job

That's awesome. I can't even touch the rim. 😢

Wow! I know a 6’4” high schooler who can’t dunk as well as this guy

I don’t feel old until I try to jump…it’s the first thing to go.

Nice dunk brother.

Good job! What type of workouts do you do

20 years and 40 pounds ago, I could dunk. I was a track and field athlete, mostly distance events. I'm only 5' 11" and could out rebound most of the tall guy, having said that rebounding is about timing and boxing out. Good luck in your quest.

Awesome dunk and it was the 6 million dollar man bionic sound that helped

Legend

All good. I think the last time I stuffed one was when I was 42. Same height.

Great job devil dog. How tall are you? I had the same goal last year before I turned 50 but never focused in...now headed to 51 in a month and at 270 lbs and 5'11..touching the net might be a challenge 😅

Nice!

That dunk was great. Especially at your age

Wow... the most impressive video I've seen in 2023.

Dunking at 54 is actually impressive.

Yeah. Missed those days. U are doing better than me. Lol.

your first step into the dunk may have been more impressive than the dunk you're out here moving like you're in your 20s

Respect 💪🏾🇺🇲

Well done. I'm not sure decomposing is exactly the right word for gradual aging.

I wasn't going to give a like because you travelled,but it was still a good effort,so i gave you a like.
