Yes he did. Wilt was never a good free throw shooter and tried many methods including underhanded which was popularized by Rick Barry who was very accurate using that method.
Wilt Chamberlain was a two-time All-American at the University of Kansas. However, he was not the greatest free-throw shooter, making just 61.9% of his free throws for his two varsity seasons at Kansas.

Wilt Chamberlain set the single-game scoring record in the National Basketball Association (NBA) by scoring 100 points for the Philadelphia Warriors in a 169-147 win over the New York Knicks on March 2, 1962, at Hershey Sports Arena in Hershey, Pennsylvania. It is widely considered one of the greatest records in basketball. Chamberlain set five other league records that game including most free throws made, a notable achievement for the poor free throw shooter.
Yes in the 1988 dunk contest he dunked it from the free throw line http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4EfHnG-e-vE
Julius Erving brought the NBA its dunk and is better than Jordan. Jordan has done a free throw line dunk but Julius Erving invented the free throw line dunk. Julius"Dr J" Erving is the king of dunk. Check out youtube and type "Top 10 Julius Erving dunks". Enjoy.=)
The restriction of crossing over the foul lane was established in 1956. The NCAA established the rule that requires free throw shooters to keep both feet behind the free throw line during an attempt after reports surfaced that Wilt Chamberlain dunked his free throws.
