le parkour
June 13th, 2006
i wished i had been a gymnast. seems like a sport and art that synchronizes the mind and body like few others. from a few different sources last week i received clips of urban gymnasts using buildings, rooftops, and physical structures as their gymnasium to awesome effect. David Belle is apparently one of the progenitors, aside from batman of course, and here’s a video of his training and building jumping. an eight minute long and perhaps more startling example from russia was posted to google video. worth watching.
