We just sit back and stare in amazement and awe at how Cristiano Ronaldo leaps and how gracefully he glides in the air. One of his extraordinary abilities is his high gravity-defying leaps. In a game between Juventus and Sampdoria, Ronaldo took a leap to reach a ball that was 2.56 m high, and banged it with his head, scoring an amazing goal. While achieving that mind-blowing header goal, Cristiano Ronaldo’s vertical leap was 8.9ft. This jump is regarded as Ronaldo’s highest ever leap winning the hearts of his fans and making them proud. Another fabulous jump header goal was witnessed and enjoyed by his fans when he played a match against Wales.
His leaps are so famous and loved that F2 freestylers initiated a £1,000 challenge for the people to jump higher than Cristiano Ronaldo. The towering header that the 35-year-old Ronaldo manages to achieve is very remarkable for a forward player. On 19th December 2020 in a Juventus vs Parma match yet again gave us his gravity-defying header leap and a 4-0 win against Parma. This led Twitteraties to praise him. Some even referred to him as a goal-scoring machine. These kinds of leaps are possible because of Cristiano Ronaldo’s height and weight. Ronaldo hits the gym and maintains his fitness.
