Parkour
    #7420808 -

anyone here know what it is? and is anyone capable of doing it themselves? i was recently turned on to it by a friend, ive seen tons of videos of it and i am fully intrigued. im in pretty good physical shape, or so i thought, until i saw some of these guys doing their crazy shit. it has inspired me to step up my workouts so i can jump around the way they do.

ive heard there are parkour classes, similar to martial arts classes, anyone heard of them and where they are? someone told me there is a class in cali somewhere but thats all ive heard.

A friend of mine factured a vertebra doing that crazy shit. It's inoperable, so he's looking forward to a lot of pain in the years ahead. This guy is 24, and he's gonna be walking like an old man by the time he's 35.

The idea is cool, but apparently a lot of people doing it have no clue what they're doing to their bodies. If you have to do stuff like that, be sure you're learning from people who aren't ignorant asshats. I just can't believe the human body is capable of jumping off of buildings repeatedly without sustaining some significant injuries over time.

its not the jumping you have to worry about, its the falling :smile: you just have to know how to fall if you dont land it right. granted ive never put my body through that much falling and at some of those heights, but ive put my body through a whole hell of alot in wrestling and martial arts.

i think even when i can do some of that crazy shit, i would never attempt to do a backflip from as high as some of those crazy bastards. there are just some things i know i shouldnt do.

Freakin spiderman. That looks a lot like the demo for Assassin's Creed. That guy should go into work as a stuntman.

I live there hah. I've seen them dudes around backflipping off walls and shit.. its pretty fucking cool man :grin:

I wouldn't mind having the balance and strength to be able to climb shit like they can.. would certainly be handy when running from the facists :grin:

its not just france, it started in france, now its all over the place, basically everywhere in europe, its starting to pick up popularity in the US and canada and im sure in 10-15 years it will be much more popular.

outside of martial arts, in my opinion this seems like the most fun way to stay in shape.

and just think, if you ever have to run for your life, or from the police, you have no problems :smile:

the point of jackass was to hurt themselves for entertainment. the point of parkour is to be as physically fit as you can be and have fun. and NOT get hurt.
