Via 850: The Buzz and The Big Lead, here's North Carolina's Tyler Hansbrough jumping off a roof into (hopefully) a pool.
The reason the scene in Almost Famous worked so well is because that's the type of thing only a famous person could get away with. We'd stay in school for that too.

I AM A GOLDEN GOD!
I demand a video of this high brow debauchery. Stills won't cut it!
His scrappyness knows no bounds.
Does this really need to be shown? It's the off-season. It's his private life. We're talking 'bout his private life? Not a game. Not a game. Practice. We're talkin' 'bout practice.
...
Shit, I got mixed up.
You see, this is the type of thing that really pisses the shit out of me. This isn't news.
I believe he was pushed.
/CSI'd
Duke players hold their nose as they jump..
btw, to the old MSM...this picture makes me LIKE Hansbrough more. Espeically because he has a Walton-esque tye-dyed shirt on and appears to be wearing his socks only while jumping into the pool.
At least he wasn't on spring break.
Whoever called out that Psycho T was standing next to Frasor yesterday on that deck gets my congrats. +1 to you sir on your impecable eyesight, you know who you are...
That's all guts, determination and scrappy play there, folks.
He just won't stop hustling. He has so much desire. No one works harder at cannonballs than Tyler.
(Kneeling, hands cupped together.)
Please let it be a vat of acid. Please, please please.
The reason the scene in Almost Famous worked so well is because that's the type of thing only a famous person could get away with. We'd stay in school for that too.
Not to mention hot Tar heel co-eds. That would be my number 1 reason.
It's the friggin' off-season Will! Just leave Tyler alone...sob sob...leave him alone...sob sob..leave Tyler alone!
No shirt, no shoes, no jumping from the balcony.
If this had been 1994 Sheed and Stack would have been on the lawn smoking a blunt.
Seriously.
He's actually just a big Randy Savage fan, and is attempting to revive his passed out homeboy.
@BelichickSpiesOnYou:
If this was at Duke, Greg Paulus wouldn't jump, he'd dive.
Thank you for humanizing Tyler Hansbrough
Not pictured: Vitale racing to catch him.
"Noooooooo, baby!!"
Dr. Bunson's latest experiment really ended poorly this time
INVSBL SWMMYS
@Afino: Flop, actually.
LOLjocks would be my new favorite feature if it existed.
Will, did you put this on here because it makes Tyler Hansborough look human? I may not be 50, but I'm not that stupid.
/insert Greatest American Hero theme song here
That has America's Funniest Home Videos written all over it.
@Afino: actually, he'd push some guy next to him from behind and then flop in when the guy turned around..
Anyone else notice Bobby Frasor, who appears to still be in the pool, waiting for Tyler to join him?
@Le Kangourou de Kataroo: Happy birthday, lady.

Can someone reach Braylon Edwards for comment?
@sassydeerrun: looks like this Tarheel went head over heels...literally.
/Horatio Cane'd
Gerenimo or Cowabunga?
Hansbrough is D'in up the crowd nicely though.
@mistresschristina: That's a long range Tea Baggin.
@Le Kangourou de Kataroo: Grimey has you covered.
Tyler's already in the downward spiral of his career?
I don't see what this has to do with Bob Costas or Buzz Aldrin... or Buzz Lightyear... or whatever the hell Buzz tried to kill Will
Does he have his SOCKS on? Oh man...
AND I'M ON DRUGS!
@DannyNoonan
I think Bobby should put in a call to Greg Paulus, get some advice on how to do it properly...
If Taylor Hansbrough was black would you still be posting this?
//Scoop Jackson'd
Jesus, Will, have you even heard of Artemius of Canos, who in 1554 BC wrote the first cuneform profiles of Babylon's elite stick-and-stone-ring-on-the-wall athletes??? You and your lousy internet blogging....
@Clare: Dang, too slow.
In all seriousness, the millions can wait.
That is way better than killing time before playing the Milwaukee Bucks by wandering around some anonymous shopping mall.
Ok Iracane, you explain it.
...Children's play toy, or vicious backyard killer?
/might be on a trampoleeeeen.
A touching tribute to Albert Hoffman.
/tears
His D is so good he actually levitates.
As long as he apologizes for it afterwards, I think it's fine.
*Hofmann
Sig Ep house? I can't tell.
We only care about this picture because Tyler Hansbrough is a hardworking white balcony jumper. When was the last time a hardworking black balcony jumper was on the front page of deadspin?
Hansborough's leap imitating his draft stock.
@DumpsterDining: SAE. You could see it better in yesterday's post.
@DumpsterDining: SAE, check yesterday's pic
@DumpsterDining: Read the Big Lead story, dumb ass.
@The Gizmo from Pismo: That was my #1 problem with this whole debacle. As a Heel, I find this amusing. Many who hate the Heels will find this amusing. A community, using bad, bad pictures to further our fandom and discussion. What a bunch of assholes we are.
@Stay Away From Oprah: Oops
You know, I used to like this Tyler Hansbrough fellow.
@Stay Away From Oprah: @7th Floor King Dingaling: Thanks. Missed yesterday's post
A Duke player would've slapped his palms on the roof before jumping.
So, Will, how ya gonna justify this one? Does the North Carolinian media have doubts as to whether Hansbrough is a serious athlete or not? Hmmmm, is that the case?!
I think the LOLanything fad should end yesterday.
There, I said it.
the red neck pool seems so much more NC State than UNC.
@The Gizmo from Pismo: I don't think it's a tie-dyed shirt, just a graphic tee.
My generation buys its "creativity" from Hot Topic and Hollister.
But how is this news?
