Houston Texans DE J.J. Watt's incredible vertical leap

I remember draftniks questioning J.J. Watt's "athleticism" when he came out of Wisconsin in 2011. Those concerns don't come up much now that the Houston Texan is an NFL Defensive Player of the Year.

If you liked Adrian Wilson's YouTube leap a few years back, you will love all 289 pounds of Watt leaping 59.5 inches without a running start. Or you will hate it because it makes you feel inferior.
