Watch A T-Rex Dunk A Basketball In Arlington (Video)

ARLINGTON, VA — It's the latest fad: the drive-by dunk challenge, where people jump out of cars and dunk basketballs in strangers' hoops. And now the Arlington County Fire Department has gotten involved with a bit of a twist.

Someone dressed up in a T-Rex costume with an ACFD vest, and then jumped out of a van to attempt a dunk on a nearby hoop -- only to fail miserably. You can watch the video below.

After getting some assistance from a fire truck ladder, he was able to successfully nail the dunk.

"Tiny arms wont stop this T-rex's #DriveByDunkChallenge!" ACFD tweeted.

The drive-by dunk challenge first went viral a couple weeks ago when Instagram user t.currie posted a video of himself dunking in the driveways of strangers in Los Angeles.
