Mike Posted November 23, 2005 Report Share Posted November 23, 2005 (edited) i saw this show on animal planet on how certain animals jump high and whatnot and if humans had the same jump power they could jump on a builing...blah blah blah.....but then they showed a video of this thing called free running where people in urban enviroments run of roof tops, jump from roof to roof. flip over things ledges and stuff similar to that. i tryed googling to find a video but i cant get anything good right now. but ut looks really interesting...im not gonna take it up or anything but it seems cool. it truthfully reminded me of spider-man...without the webs. since it was made in london i think you would know about it. since lots of you are in the uk Edited November 23, 2005 by WILL IS ILL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonny 5 Posted November 23, 2005 Report Share Posted November 23, 2005 yeah, free running is amazing. It's proper name is actually Parkour (French), there's loads of free vids on the net, here's some... http://www.screwgravity.com/videos/index.shtml I often thought about doin this stuff but haven't got round to it yet...the show you called wasn't called 'Jump Britain' by any chance was it?
