Alyson Wyers — May 6, 2014 — Lifestyle
From now on if you want to up your pool dunk game, you'll need to get a jet pack or some very famous friends. This epic commercial from Turkish Airlines is in support of the upcoming Euroleague Final Four, the European version of the NCAA Final Four. If this video is any indication, apparently European basketball takes place in a giant swimming pool.
The ad features league stars Robin Benzing, Kyle Hines, Shawn James and Sergio Rodriguez. As the athletes pass the ball back and forth, things escalate until an epic pool dunk occurs after a jet pack wearing player throws an assist to another, who alley-oops the basket.
The Euroleague Final Four is going down later this month in Milan, Italy.
