Alright, I have seen videos like these before, but I think those are pretty cool. I just wanted to share them, in case simebody didn't know about this sport. What these guys do ist just amazing! They're insane of course but this stuff is very cool to watch!

There's another amazing video of a guy doing a backflip down from some sort of small electricity tower (~ 25 feet) and landing on his feet. Can't find this one ATM though.
 
The BBC did a great show on this called "Jump London", where they did parkour all over famous buildings and stuff in London. As a special trick, one of the guys jumped down to the main deck on an armoured battleship, falling a distance equivalent to two stories!

EDIT: I'd also like to add that when I saw ads for the show, I thought it was a fictional story and that all the jumps were fake. Then I watched the show and found out it was real. :shock:
 
man i'd go to school like that if i can do it

Yeah, I remember that... that was one of the craziest things I've ever seen. If anyone finds it, be sure to post the link up here.
 
OH. MY. GOD.

That is freakin awesome!!! :thumbsup:
 
Wow, that one kid that is just about all the videos is amazing! :eek:
 
i've had an interview with that dude, but can't seem to find it no more
 
Here's a video of the guy, who was one of the first to do this sport AFAIK:

He makes it look so easy...

More vids, but they're not as impressive as those posted earlier:

This guy is pretty good though, but I'm not liking the sort of ninja action in the middle of the vid. Seems to be in America for a change:

This guy is goooooooooooood!!!!!

His stunts are unbeliavable. He's the one in that 25ft tower backflip. His jumping across roofs, jumping into cars, and street stunts are unbeliavable.

In case you can't see the video button: http://kyzr.free.fr/cyrilraffaelli/videos.php

Watch all of them, they aren't that big, but surely are amazing!

ps: in one of the videos there's even a higher backflip jump than that tower!
 
Keep the links coming guys!

Videos don't work for me unfortunately. The pop-up window opens but there's no video... :(
 
Hmmm, works fine for me. I use IE based browser, maybe try opening it in IE. Window pops up, and media player loads in that small window and starts streaming.
