High schooler goes for 360 dunk, comes up a full foot short of the rim

During a local dunk contest, a kid from Walkertown High School in North Carolina bit off way more than he could possibly chew, and ended up missing the whole rim by an entire foot. 

The difficulty was just too high. That's an A-1 99th percentile Grown Man dunk. The self-alley, the 360, the Yo Gotti blaring in the background; it's just too many moving parts. Classic case of attempting to do a triple jump before you've even learned to crawl.

Still though, I wish this clip was just two seconds longer. Seeing everyone buckle to the ground, gripping their sides in laughter would've taken this #Shaqtin to the next echelon.
