That is absolutely amazing. I mean, they get wires and padding and fake shots for all that stuff in movies. It looks like a video game where you run around the city jumping and climbing and flipping over everything. Fascinating, truly fascinating.    → comment by Adrienne (#149) on November 30, 2005 This video is like my dream of what my life would be like...I always imagine climbing buildings when I see them, consider how to climb up...but I'm a scrawny white Jew. Damn you, REALITY!    → comment by Gbrowdy (#55) on November 30, 2005 I agree about the awesome.    → comment by dustin (#1) on November 30, 2005 Parkour is great to watch live. I saw some kids practising it (low level) in Paris when I went last year.    → comment by vinny9 (#33) on December 1, 2005 Earlier this year, an outdoors McWorkshop and w/o Annette photoshoot were interrupted by a bunch of hoodlums attempting this type of stuff. Mister bo-jangles security guy asked them to move along. They weren't terribly good at it; they just looked like street kids with nowhere to go. Plus they all had their shirts on. The wikipedia article doesn't even mention that "Parkour" is a play on "parcour" which translates to obstacle course. Silly wiki. Anyhow, it did have a link to a cool BBC advert    → comment by Bryan (#22) on December 1, 2005 From the article: "The word Parkour derives from “parcours du combatant”, the phrase referring to the obstacle courses of Hébert’s method.    → comment by vinny9 (#33) on December 1, 2005 Nice try, Vinny. You just added that! That's wikity-wikity-wikity-whack!    → comment by Bryan (#22) on December 1, 2005 I don't think purists consider this TRUE parkour (whatever THAT is) because it's too showy. Another impressive video from a few years ago showed david belle getting down from this fuckin' high building in almost no time, but I can't find it.    → comment by Alex (#118) on December 1, 2005 Does anyone know the names and artists of any of those songs in that video? They're great...    → comment by Kristin on December 18, 2005 I recall at least one of them was on the Matrix soundtrack.    → comment by dustin (#1) on December 19, 2005 Yes, that first one is "Clubbed to Death" by Rob D. After that, a whole bunch of miscellaneous French rap, of which at least one is probably MC Solaar, though I don't recognise any of them specifically.    → comment by goodladd (#144) on December 19, 2005
