May I Present To You The Coolest Science Teacher On The Planet
Alright so I don’t love the Kobe part, but what a video. I can only imagine how hard it is to be a teacher in today’s world let alone a science teacher. Not only are kids assholes but with technology and social media and all this stuff to distract them it has to be hard to keep them engaged. Why pay attention to anything when I can just Google all homework questions later? It has to be tough out there for teachers nowadays. Well, maybe for some boring ass teacher but not for this science teacher named Jonathan Clark. I would go as far to say he is without a doubt the coolest teacher in that entire school. A quick look at his Twitter @jclarkthejumper tells us he’s a science teacher, pro dunker, jump coach, motivator etc. I say he’s nailing every one of those descriptions because I’m sitting here motivated as hell to learn some science and I haven’t been in school in over a decade.
What I want to know is where was this when I was in school? I didn’t have a teacher that did anything remotely like this. I did have a chemistry teacher that on the first day made a rocket out of a milk jug that flew around the classroom to prove a point about molecules and pressure or something, who the fuck knows. That was was cool at the time but that’s about it. Most of my teachers just yelled at me for talking during class and then there was that one science teacher I had in high school that pretty much told me I was going to be a failure in life because my brain refused to understand physics. Well now I blog for a living so guess who really showed her. I can assure you if any of my teachers went with Mr Clark’s method instead I probably would have had the highest grade in the class. I mean look at those kids, he has them by the BALLS. I need to know the backstory here. Was this part of his teaching lesson that day? Were they talking about lift or force or any other smart science thing that I can’t think of right now because I have mush for brains? I don’t know how acceptable it would be, but at 31 years old I will 100% audit this class. Teach me all about science through sweet ass dunks every day of the week and twice on Sundays.
In terms of the actual dunk? He nailed it. 10/10 execution. How he didn’t destroy his head on that ceiling I’ll never know, it has to be some sort of science trick or something like that. This is the very definition of higher learning and my hat is tipped to this guy. We need more teachers like Jonathan Clark and if he doesn’t win some sort of Teacher Of The Year award we riot.
But seriously, this dude has INSANE hops
