I don't have hurdling. The snapper had at least one hand on the ground and possibly both. That excludes this action from the rule.
I also did not see any contact between the jumper's foot and the snapper. There may have possibly been a touch but the jumper did not gain elevation at or after the contact and the snapper was not forced down toward the ground at the same instant. If you stepped on someone there would be a visible result of that contact and I saw none. I think this was more of a "Michael Jordan" move where the foot paused in mid-air while the body passed over it.
This type of block doesn't work that often as it is very difficult to time it up that well and the jumper is quite vulnerable in the air.
