That video is a panic attack.

 

[GymWolf]

I have fear of heights so that is enough to make me queasy a bit.

Parkour Caused The Death Of These People That Tried It - Munkie Parkour

FacebookPinLinkedIn Parkour can be dangerous. In fact, it can be so dangerous that it could lead to your early death because there are many reasons why parkour is dangerous. As parkour has grown in popularity, more and more people have been trying out the sport. And that means more people are...

Wait, is this 2006?

 

[TGO]

That's just people jumping, I guess that's what people think Parkour is these days.

 

[Marvel]

I can do that

 

[Kilau]

Parkour is French for douchebags

First thing I thought of! Parkour (parkour) parkour! Parkour

It's impressive but at some point some of them will kill themselves this way.

Reminds me of this:

 

[TGO]

I'd never say I do parkour because I don't
But when I younger I did watch a lot of Jackie Chan films so I copied a lot of what I saw.
And Jackie Chan was waaaay before Parkour was a thing.
So by my late teens I was doing this sort of stuff easily

And it expanded from there to other silly stuff which included flips or handplants or wall running
I use to have people beg me just to see me do something...
But that whole jumping from one spot to another at silly heights is just stupid.

Can I still do it now?...I don't know, haven't tried
Probably break my neck

 

[Alebrije]

Lazy Parktour , most are basic jumps but video edition is nice...

 

[haxan7]

Edit: Beaten. Damn.

u wish

Some of the free runners from my town ended up going on to do Hollywood stunt work. Not a bad profession that came from a hobby.

Reminds me of this:

The desperation in that man's mind before he fell. Shocking stuff.

 

[Kev Kev]

People should check out Jimmy The Giants Youtube channel. It covers everything about modern Parkour and it's history. There's a lot more to the sport than just death defying jumps, it's very interesting.

 

[12Goblins]

my knees hurt just watching that

 

[Yoboman]

Editing is cool but that's really basic parkour. Small jumps, not much height on the drops

Not that I could do better but there is way crazier stuff out there

Those scenes on the high rise building looking down had me literally squirming in my seat.

Think i saw a real estate agent do that once, you know, a fisheye lens to make everything look bigger...
