the only difference between you and the guys in that video is what they are thinking as they do that stuff. if you can see them do it; then you can realise what they are doing, understand what they must be thinking, visualise your motions, then execute.

no practice needed.


watch the video again, think positive; and go jump off the first building you see.

Yeah, that makes sense. Looks like you're hitting the coke again. Trying to get someone to break their leg? ::)

There's a technique to taking those falls. You're welcome to go jump off a 25 foot wall and see what happens when you land without knowing what to do.

i guess the answer lies in most of the landings cut out of the vid.  ;D ;D

Some freaky jumps there, but i would say a few of them ended in an ambulance.  ;D ;D ;D

LOL.

uummmm obviously you are not very familiar with parkour.


to make it a competitive sport would be to seperate it from the actual sport of parkour. one of the main principles of the discipline is that it always remain uncompetitive, and it expresses directly that in any scenario where there is a competitive aspect to parkour; it no longer is parkour; and does not bear that name or affiliation.
