OK, This Whole Jumping Thing Is Starting To Get Out Of Hand

Another salvo has been fired in the ongoing freak-jump battle between Bears rookie DT Jarron Gilbert and Redskins rookie WR Keith Eloi.  Most recently, Eloi jumped into the back of a pick-up truck wearing sandles, in response to the YouTube sensation created by video of Gilbert performing a standing leap from a swimming pool.

Apparently Keith decided that he needed more attention to one-up Gilbert at his own game – jumping out of a pool.  So he does the same standing jump out of 3-feet of water as Gilbert did.  But Eloi does it backwards.

Feel free to skip ahead to the :45 mark to watch the jump, unless you have a burning desire to know the names of 5 random dudes hanging out in a pool.

(ed. note – couldn’t one of these guys have given Eloi a pair of swim trunks for this thing?  I mean, DJ Smoke, help us out!)

Okay Keith, we get it.  You can jump.  You also weigh approximately 143 pounds (listed at 190 … soaking wet while holding a bag of chihuahuas), whereas Gilbert weighs 285 pounds.  That’s what makes Gilbert’s feat so impressive, you see.  The physics of a man that large being able to jump so high.

Now if Eloi does this with Mary Kate Olsen on his shoulders, then I’ll really be impressed.
