Pool dunks were all the rage last summer, with every bro with a swimming pool and a smartphone hoping to capture his 15 seconds of Internet fame.
None of those kids had the resources of the Turkish Airlines Euroleague, though, which had several of its players team up with a few stuntmen to create arguably the greatest pool dunk we’ve seen yet.
Creating the video, which debuted this week as a commercial for the league, took some serious dedication on the players’ parts, as the behind-the-scenes footage shows that it took more than 20 takes to perfectly nail the complicated sequence.
Check it out the dunk and the “making of” feature in the videos below, with a hat tip to Deadspin.
