Nothing directly to do with MMA here, but this guy is amazing.

He would be a cops worst nightmare. Imagine trying to run him down.

Pretty amazing

this discipline is better than most martial arts in terms of self defense. immagine being able to escape so easily and effortlessly. nothing can stand in your way. this art, le parkour is the art of movement.

This is Sébastien Foucan the founder of le parkour. He made a documentary called Jump London, and yes that is him jumping between the roof of a football (soccer) stadium.

That isn't agility, those are super powers ;P

"Alright, he has fooled the chicken!"

That's hilarious! It's like the opening to City of God, but in reverse!

i know a few capoeria players who are free runners. I'd join em, cuz i can do most of that shit but 1. I can't run very far and 2. most plants in illinois are thorn-bearing.

I want whatever shoes they're wearing.

Anyone ever heard of soap shoes? They are a lot like skate shoes with an extra grip tread but with a grind plate in the middle of the shoes. Imagine being able to run and grind down ledges and rails with just your shoes. This would just add more to freerunning.

Yeah the jump london documentary was pretty cool. Those guys are crazy, all they need to invent is some sort of web slinging apparatus and they would be spidermen.

And who in their right mind doesn't want to be spiderman?
