        Holy shit that’s awesome. So that’s what the guy in Haikyuu would look like in real life (anime about volleyball where one of the protagonists is a short guy who makes up for it because he can run fast and jump real high).

      Goddamn his smile in that picture is contagious. He looks like he’s just stoked to be there.

      There was a short black kid like that in high school, saw him in the gym in '87 or '88. I’m 5’8", maybe an inch shorter then? This guy was clearly shorter than me.

      Eating lunch in the risers and my friend started pointing, “There he is! Check this dude out!”

      That guy had cannonballs for calf muscles. Like Spud, it was eye-popping to see him spring.
