Parkour is the New Extreme

Posted on 20 March 2009 by Flisha

Gim introduced me to these videos of parkour, sort of an extreme sport that resembles martial arts but is more focused on the flight rather than the fight. It was founded by David Belle, a French guy who stars in this BBC footage below.

Amazing, no? He reminds me of Spiderman, except that he doesn’t have any web strands. So I guess that makes him better than Spiderman. :) While it’s stunning how the man can jump over steel buildings so effortlessly like that, I can just imagine the horrible and fatal injuries he could get if something went wrong.

Jump in to see a cute David Belle commercial and some more videos. Even women are getting into this urban sport!
