Jordan Kilganon (born 1993 Sudbury, Ontario), also known as "Mission Impossible" and "The Dude Who Dunked in Jeans", is a Canadian professional dunker. He is most notable for his viral dunks seen in youtube and doing a scorpion dunk in jeans during a fourth quarter timeout of the 2016 NBA All-Star Game.
Kilganon has a 50-inch vertical jump which allows him to perform acrobatic dunks even though he only stands 6'1". He first completed a dunk when he was 16 years old. Most of his dunks are performed while leaping over a person or a person holding the ball while underneath the rim.[1][2][3]
