I'm just so impressed with what they can do - MOST especially the backflips off of buildings. A BACKFLIP - off of a building - not the back deck into a pool - off a two story building with no safety gear. In my head I can imagine crunching bones and internal bleeding, it's almost painful to watch.
 
Well these are parkour runs. It's quite popular in France and here it's growing up.

l'Art Du Déplacement = The "moving" art.

It is used in James Bond Casino Royal at the beginning.

its called parkour, im not sure what you accomplish from all this but it'd be hella fun to do
off course you would need to be strong and able to take quite a bit of pain


i think theres a game coming out thats based on parkour, Mirrors Edge i think
 
its a theory based all on constant motion. if you stop dead cold after jumping off a 2 story building, you will snap something, after a fall and you just keep rolling and keep moving your muscles wont alow for the bones to have something hard to snap against. i myself have always loved watching free running. another thing, if you are about to wreck in your car you auto tense up because you know whats coming. If an infant is in the car they dont understand whats goin on or whats coming so they dont tense. They stay lose and thats why we break bones and they dont.
 
Yeah I've also been working on some Parkour. Difference from Parkour and free running is that Parkour is more practical and less dance kind of stuff. It's pretty fun to see how high up you can get and how fast you can do it. A lot of people say it's gonna be like the new skating since it's people taking something like a building and using it for something it's not supposed to be used for etc etc. The SCARIEST thing imo that they do in Free Running is jump through those two bars so close together feet first. I can always just imagine me attempting that then eating a mouthful of bar and losing all my teeth.
