A mannequin head, a disco ball, and a pumpkin may seem like totally random group of objects but they're part of a very important experiment. Jimmy Kimmel wanted to put NBA legend Michael Jordan's hands to the test to see if he can palm things other than a basketball.

The mannequin, while oddly shaped, proved no challenge for Jordan's sizable hand. He was able to grip the foam head with ease.

The disco ball proved to be a toucher task. "The glass is too slippery," Jordan told Kimmel.

And the pumpkin? "I got this," Jordan said, lifting the gourd as if it weighed little more than an apple.
