text: The person who holds the highest veritcal jump is a white guy. Look at all the high jumpers in track and field, mostly white guys. Ethinicity has nothing to do with the ability to jump high. It does seem balck guys jump higher in b-ball, but that is b/c there are more black guys who play basketball. Can you say white guys are better skaters and swimmers? No! Less blacks in those sports.\n\nI have played and coached for over 20 years and you know what makes you jump high is your inate ability, athleticism and drive, not skin colour. Stop windbagging and go play some ball!!!! [So, you can jump and dunk!]
