I've been able to do it since 8th grade.  My hands are pretty large, but I've met a lot of people with bigger hands who can't palm it at all.  I think it's because my thumb is flexible.

Very few guys in the NBA can actually "palm the ball" today. It doesn't take hand strength. It just takes huge hands. Only guys like Dr. J, Chamberlain, Connie Hawkins, Shaq, actually had hands big enough. They all had hands from tip of pinky to thumb of at least 13"+.  Being able to hold the ball by gripping it with your fingers isn't "palming" the ball. Most anyone with a good sized hand can do that.

Fuck you asshole.  I don't care if I get criticized about this.  This shit-talk about people who died has gone too far. 

I'm glad I don't know some of you in real life.  Only a complete shit-head would even say the stuff I've heard today


yes i agree about this Jesse guy...But for sake of argument...Not all death is created equal...

If DA was to die tonight...You can bet that he would get bashed on this and many sites out there...And i personally believe for good reason...If he doesn't respect anyone when he is living, then he shouldn't get respect in death...

Man that is sad news. He was a nice guy and always cool when I talked to him at shows. Last I saw him was at the Boise Fit Expo when he posed for this pic with two hotties in the model contest.

RIP peace Jesse.

Rest in peace brother.

Show some respect boys were all brothers in the iron game otherwise why would be train and spend time on here, the name is get big after all, not be small and live long, drugged or natural, lets just appreciate a great athlete on a sad day for his family and us, i dont mean getbig and die, im sure if Jesse thought he was going to go out like this he would have pulled up for the sake of his family, but we all love the iron game, lets just show him some respect.

I'll probably get flamed for this...What a way to go out, after an extended drop set of heavy, ass-to-the-floor squats.  A "good" death if you ask me...doing what he loved to do.  I just wish he didn't check out so young.

good article with Jesse.

Jesse sure ate alot. That coupled with steroids couldn't have helped having a bad heart.


Not to seem like a totall asshole i have to say its really tragic. Seemed like a very nice guy.

AHAAHAH!!!  Exactly, although "fat" is an understatement......"morbidly obese" is probably the most common opinion.

Do the top contenders in Strongmen events get regular checkups?

Sure, he may have had a weak heart to start with, but to be a top player events like this it seems you need a (more than sensible) stash of roids.

Tragic event. I don't think any sport where strenght and endurance dominate over skill is still clean today.

I hope the best for his family and may this inspire other athletes to get decent checkups.
I know that in cycling a lot of them have rigourous tests to check the condition of the heart/arteries.

R.I.P

This taken from his forum:

Friends, we suffered a great loss in the strongman community last evening. The Sequim Crew was doing what they do. Training hard and particularly training Jesse for the WSM contest in Anaheim. He died quickly and painlessly.

The squat set was as follows:
230kg x 8
190kg x 8
150kg x 8
110kg x 8
70kg x 8
Followed immediately by:
600# tire flip
265# stone load
All of this was done with no rest between sets. Rack, pull, go
At the completion of these sets Jesse laid on his back, on the cold floor like normal. Breck and Sarge noticed that his breathing was laborious. Jesse became incoherent and stopped breathing. We administered cpr, called 911 and continued to resusitate until paramedics arrived. They set up the defibrillator, epinephrin, to no avail. He was worked on for over an hour between Breck, Sarge and the paramedics.

These are the facts as it happened. We are deeply saddened by this tragic loss. We appreciate your support and prayers.

i feel bad for jesse and his family that he is dead

but lets not forget we all take chances some of us 'gamble' more than others. i may gamble with 'weed' while others gamble in life by driving fast as hell, doing coke and alcohol on the regular.

steroids are the dumbest gamble of them all, there are risks, and side effects and its should be pretty clear now that young athletes are dropping like flys

He always seemed like a cool dude. I remember seeing him talking with the fans at either the ASC or the GNC a few years ago; seemed like a real cool dude. My condolences.
