Jul 232012

Justin Bethel was the last athlete to go viral for his impressive vertical jump skills. The Presbyterian College football star jumped up 60 inches onto a box that’s been seen over 900,000 times online.

Since the video was published over the weekend, it has amassed over 230,000 hits, and is featured on AllThingsGym and DailyPicks.
