J.J. Watt can do just about everything, can't he? He can sack quarterbacks. He can catch touchdown passes. And he can jump high. Really $&^%*#@ high!

Last month, he tried this same 61-inch box jump—and failed to complete it. He nearly killed his spotter while doing it, too. But over the weekend, he completed it and did it while wearing a pair of Reeboks (Reebok is, conveniently, Watt's new sponsor).

"Must have been the shoes, baby," he yelled after his jump.

Must have been. Then again, being a freak of nature doesn't hurt, either.
