I learned a new word today: Parkour. Here’s a video of some typical parkour action …
The Beastie Boys soundtrack includes the line “if you play Defender, I could be your hyperspace.” Gotta love that.

After watching this Parkour movie, I will never see fences as being as protective as I used to see them. These guys can jump almost anything!

District b13 stars David Bell and a bunch of really amazing Parkour guys. He’s kind of the Michael Jordan of the sport. Check it out for highly produced, amazing Parkour action.

Thanks for the links, Andrew and Nic. It’s certainly fun to watch this stuff, although I sometimes wince when thinking of what could go wrong.
I noticed YouTube has some videos about that, actually, but I’m not watching them. I already have enough nightmare material rattling around between my ears, thank you very much.
