Harlem Globetrotter Nearly Got Crushed When He Dunked the Ball [VIDEO]

William "Bull" Bullyard is thanking his lucky stars that he did not get pinned under a fallen basketball hoop during a recent performance in Honduras.

"Bull" was attempting to put his feet on the glass back board as he was hanging off the rim which caused the entire hoop to come crashing down on top of him. Many of the players on the Globetrotters team...hence the name, are used to playing in arenas all over the world, but I don't think anything like this has ever happened before.

Thankfully he is o.k. and true to Globetrotter style he went out into the crowd and greeted fans, assuring all the kids in the audience that he was o.k.
