Parkour compilation: best cityscape flips, jumps and stunts

two words: sweaty palms.

This is more of a free running video than it is a parkour video.

Parkour was invented by David Belle as a way to fluidly move from A to B; whereas Free Running was invented by Sébastien Foucan, incorporating flips and other flashy ways to show off from A to B.

Urban gymnastics sure, but this isn't parkour. Parkour is the art of escaping a pursuer with the most efficient possible use of your energy. The guy who was running all over that abandoned building was doing parkour. The guy who jumped up and slipped through that tiny window above the door was doing parkour -- heck, he even actually had somebody chasing him. Jumping over things when it would be more efficient to run around them is not parkour.

Upvote for Rise Against and umm... cool acrobatics.

They're like little monkeys scrambling all over the place. I'd have enjoyed more if the sound-track had been Wacky Sax instead. Still, impressive use of muscles and nerves.
