Hyperbole is dangerous.
It's not neccessary to grab the rim, or swing from it or do a pull-up, at any speed, while dunking the ball. When the ball is released, the shooter's head is approx. 8'10" off the floor, and his body is close to vertical. He decides to grab the rim, and pulls himself up, while pulling the rim downward, and he raises his body another 12+ inches, while swinging to a near horizontal position. It was all for show, and the show started long before this game, when he and the teammate who fed him the ball off of the backboard, practiced this move.
It's worthy of a T in NFHS, in my judgement. Oh, and yes, I've dunked a ball quite a few times . . .
