PHOENIX- Thursday a video made the rounds on the Internet of a member of the Phoenix Suns Verve Sol Patrol, a group who entertains fans during timeouts, completing quite the unique dunk. While unique, interesting and even bizarre dunks off of trampolines are the norm in arenas across the NBA this one was truly special. That is because this time the performer actually dunked himself, rather than the ball, through the hoop.

The video approached viral status appearing on websites across the country and leaving fans with numerous questions. We decided to go straight to the source to get them answered.
