Looks dangerous, but let me tell you.... an entire police force can chase those guys and they will have hell of a time catching them.

Used to do it when I was younger...

It is called parkour (derivation of parcour which loosely means obstacle course in french).

It originated in France (Paris) where I lived when I was a kid. The idea was to use your environment to get your workout. So much better than joining a gym...

Gymnastics is a mandatory part of PE in France so it gave us some good skills to start with. I can still do some of this stuff but years of slacking off combined with getting older (I'm 30 now) makes it harder and harder.

If you want to se more go here.
