I’m curious what came first. If the soundtrack was made to the video it must have been after the final edits. Perhaps this was done like animation, with the soundtrack first.

It all works together very well.

Hey, thats not parkour, its free running.

Ok, now that we have that out of the way, I would like to say that this looks absolutely stunning. I too, have longed to do such things, but a ruined femur that keeps me in pretty sizeable pain forbids even the simplest of maneuvers (hell, walking even has its challenges sometimes).

As a child, nothing made me happier, nothing centered me more, than running, top speed, through a forest or similar obstacle course. Even then, I had an inkling of myself and my surroundings bleeding into one. Of not being in the zone, but BEING the zone.

Being introduced to Parkour as an adult, was a milestone. Free running truly is on par with martial arts, dance and, as an artist, the visual medium. Powerful and meditative. There’s a calm in it, that’s difficult to express. I’ve dabbled, but only just, as a previous back surgery keeps me from fully exploring. Although, I stay on the path of pushing further and further, just to see how handicapped, for lack of a more fitting word, I really am.

Either way, it’s lovely to see Parkour still about, working it’s magic on others. Too often I see people who simply don’t get it. Too voluntarily deaf, dumb and blind, to allow their tunnel vision to let light in.

@BigJonno: Never, ever ever ever, say “never”.

there’s something about the inherently transgressive nature of parkour that makes it irresistibly endearing.

Thanks for sharing.
