umm... explain "parkour" please

I just do it for the hell of it.. did them on trampolines.. then off trampolines then on the ground doing handsrpings.. then backflipss.. then in wrestling practice we had mats i would do it off the walls and fall on the mats.. until i got it down.. then moved on to doign it off stuff like trees, walls, cars, once attempted a stop sign.. but ended up falling hardcore.. so yea ;)

Yea, i know some people who can do that...I dont think i have the nuts to try it....i guess I value my ability to walk :D..

You gotta expect people to thin they are fake when you are posting it on a Photoshop/Graphics website, especially one this large....

If you have video i think it would shut up some of the people who dont believe you

' Parkour ' is gymnastics on the streets sorta...
No rules and no costumes either...
Its basically balancing on urban scenery and jumping gaps and flips and pactising technique. Google it, you will get tons of results.

Lol pretty cool, fir some reason the pictures make the backflip look nice, but in the movie you were kind of sloppy? I dunno just noticed a huge difference between how it looked from the pics and from the images....and no im not one that thought it was fake XD

Reason being I had wrestling shoes on. There weightless basically. And I did it on a hard concrete floor. I mean I will get more. But I am walking around limping today. My foot is extremely sore. When I landed it hurt, so I was trying to break my fall. And that wasnt one of the bettter ones. I Just recenlty started doing taht front flip thing, So i am still getting that worked out

And whoever put this togather thanks. At first I was like 38 replys??!!
