.....whoa..... ...i wish i could do that!

heh...so where is the video of his slip ups? I know he didn't perform some of those stunts perfectly each and everytime.

Even Jackie Chan can slip up once and a while. (Just look at the bloopers at the end of his films.)

Ah, Parkour. Things like this never gets old.

Though, Fig, i don't think there would be a Parkour blooper video. What they're doing is pretty real and any "bloopers" might land people to hospital with broken limbs and even death. I could post some more of these videos if y'all would like it, and trust me, the other Parkour-ists are pretty crazy.

Wow, I thought I was playing Prince of Persia for a moment there...

Awesome stuff.

That would be great. I'd love to see that.

Heh...they picked the right song for that video.

Tubthumping (CHUMBAWAMBA)

I get knocked down
But I get up again
You're never going to keep me down

That was awesome... I'm with Darum I wish I could do that... How can they jump that high!

If a human is capable of doing such things, then what are werewolves capable of?

That's pretty bloody awesome. I wanna do that too!

I saw this at school and man did it draw a crowd around me, thier was like 3 or 4 people standing over my shoulders.

dude the guy is a freaken chimp!!

People that can do that renew my faith in the human body.

I mean really, most people are so slobby and weak and slow compared to that. Those parkous guys are like freakin' animals! I like being reminded every now and then of what the human body is capable of, in the right hands.

You know, maybe the wall-climbing abilities of the Van Helsing werewolf wasn't as exaggerated as we thought...

yes it was, there were no ledges for him to grab onto

It's 'proper' name is Parkour, the name for a person that does parkour is a 'traceur' ;P I used to train quite a bit until exams got in the way, now I just focus on Parkour photography.

York PK are a group of my friends that I sometimes train with, they're very good at what they do now

Urban Effusion used to do pk with the YPK guys, but there were a few...disagreements and they now have their own group. They do more tricking than parkour but it still looks awesome. They even got onto the local news when they held a parkour jam down in bridlington (news link)


And believe me. It takes a LONG time to be able to do minimalistic moves, so don't just go out there and start vaulting the nearest rail you see o.o; And yes, people do slip up quite often. Bedford (Or Chris, he's in York PK) managed to get concussion for a while after a nasty trip landing on his head, and Moon (Josh Moon, appropriate name for this discussion? ) in Urban Effusion sprained his ankle once due to just a slight miscalculation. But it is very impressive to watch <3
