(* At least of those that appear somewhere on the Internet.)
In honor of the NBA Slam Dunk Contest's revival thanks to Dwight Howard and Gerald Green, let's have a look at what the Bizarro Dunk Contest would look like. I proudly present the dunks that would have scored a perfect 0. (Magic, however, would have have still talked for 45 minutes about each one of them, with 98% of what he said being unintelligible, while Darryl Dawkins, despite no logical reason for doing so, would still have given them all 9's.)
13. Travis Outlaw with the airball dunk!
12. Tony Parker for the ... guh!
11. Qyntel Woods three-sixtyyyyy... no, not you.
10. Bonus points for almost being killed.
9. And even more bonus points.
8. Throw it down, big man!
7. Face off the glass!
6. Props are fun!
5. Dunk over... er, into... a pretty girl!
4. Kid dunks... his leg?
3. Head off the rim!?
2. Big air!
1. Dunk off a chair!
Honorable Mention: Julian Wright, LeBron James, Some white dude, Adonal Foyle, Brandon Griffin, In the snow, Some kid on a ramp, Yet another white dude, and finally, Ricky Davis.
And boom goes the dynamite.

Great compilation. Absolutely hilarious...especially the kid that hits his head on the lowered rim.
haha. wow that was a great compilation
Funny, I only see 13.
Steve Blake while at Maryland in the 2003 NCAA tourney against Michigan State. And to rub more salt in the wound, they lost by 2.

#2 was rigged. I was at the game and the guy who missed the dunk was the old Mavs man (not Jimmy King)
The other 9 are under honorable mention.
HILARIOUS !!
My fav is the "Big air" hands down, the kid was scared or somethng...
#2 should be the "Face off the glass"
a great missed dunk is this one by Sixer Rodney Carney, unfortunately I have only an article and not a video, but maybe someone can find it:

in case, plese let me know...
thanks for giving me 10 minutes of good laughs
The worst dunk I've ever seen that would have been a great addition for this list happened in a Georgia state championship game. A kid stole the 2nd half inbound pass at full speed toward the goal and had so much momentum going into his dunk that when he grabbed the rim he swung into a horizontal position and came down with his face smacking the hardwood. To make it even more hilarious, the kid got up dashed after a loose ball and went flying over the scorer's table.
