Wow, those guys are crazy! Very impressive though.

 

[Julian Reville]

Yowza. Those guys definitely have a future, but I'm not sure whether it will as movie stuntmen or as organ donors.

 

[Daren Welsh]

I dunno if they were the same guys, but there's a car ad (I think for the Scions) where some guys are doing some of that to keep up with the cars. I've also seen another ad with the jumpers, ... I think it was for shoes or jeans.

 

[Mike Wladyka]

yeah, i remember seeing them somewhere on TV...like ripley's or something like that

 

[Ron-P]

Impressive!


Peace Out~

 

[Daren Welsh]

I think this is the Scion ad. I can't view QT movies at work, so I can't check it until I go home.

Here we go ... found a couple good sites:

Parkour

UK Parkour Association

Screw Gravity

As We Fall

Defiantly impressive! These guys must have trained there asses off to be so agile flexible and strong. Reminds me of my martial arts training with how fluid there movement is and when they land they roll or otherwise let there kinetic energy keep them moving rather than impart that force into there legs causing an injury.

From what I recall its pretty popular in France. They call themselves Yamakasi. Luc Besson even did a movie about it; I believe it was also called Yamakasi.

 

[Mary M S]

Those guys should be hired by the Airborne Divisions of the military to teach PLF's! Incredible

 

[Bill Williams]

Or they can always call Vince McMahon to see if they can get a job on Raw or Smackdown. That's how Mick Foley got started in the business

 

[ThomasC]

Whoa.

 

[Joe Spratley]

They should be in the new Spider Man moving coming out.

 

[Eric_L]

I could do that if I really wanted to. I just don't want to.

 

[TonyD]

these guys should train pro athletes how to fall/land without hurting themself.
that looks to be the key to many of those stunts.
landing without much of an impact on their body.

how many times have i seen an athlete get hurt just from falling down and trying to brace their fall with their arm.
instead of doing a roll or something better then their arm.

 

[Daren Welsh]

Okay ... who wants to spot me while I learn to do a backflip off a wall? I bet I'd be neck-deep in chicks if I could do that!

 

[Mike Wladyka]

you mean the chicks at the hospital?

 

[NickSo]

haha, yeah, your neck isnt as high when you're lying on your back
