one of the biggest urban myths in football. this claim was scientifically disproven back in the days of john fashanu who made an art form out of viciously elbowing opponents in the air. no extra lift is gained by flailing your arms while jumping. in most cases it's just habit. in some it's a deliberate attempt to injure an opponent.
