omo said...: I love watching "free running", aka "extreme running", or "Parkour"! I've seen a few videos w/girls, too. I wish I had seen it when I was 11 0r 12! (that was several years ago--haha!) Thanks for the morning run, Lloyd!; August 31, 2010 at 7:11 AM
Sammy said...: Awesome, i saw some young teenagers trying this out just the other day. They still had quite some way to go to be as good as these guys! I love the soundtrack too.; August 31, 2010 at 7:27 AM
barefootrambling said...: Parkour seems to be bigger across the pond, I seem to find a ton of videos from England, France (it's homeland) and even Israel...but not so much from the west coast...Oh well, thanks for the wake up video Lloyd!; August 31, 2010 at 9:05 AM

Anonymous said...: Great video/post, I have had a lousy, tedious and stressful day today and have watched this a few times. It has been one of the few things to make me smile. I would share it with a health and safety officer I am working with, but no doubt he will ask for risk assessments on our buildings just incase these guys turn up!; August 31, 2010 at 3:39 PM
Matjaž said...: I hope you don't mind me pointing you in the direction of the original artist that put this thing together: http://www.youtube.com/user/traceurelements#p/u/0/voB6WiP83NU and that is also the original video.

Now you can enjoy it in HD, and read the back story. There's also a couple of amazing videos you should see there.; September 8, 2010 at 3:58 PM
