    This clip is amazing stuff and I think it sheds some light on the physical abilities that humans have the potential of attaining.

    Wow...that is some amazing stuff. It must take years of training to get to that level, or TONS of natural athletic gift. I myself can barely do a front handspring or cartwheel.

    I watched a documentary on discovery about them. Crazy stuff!

    I wonder if they could do all those cute little flips and jumps after someone has taken their back and properly applied a rear naked choke on them.

    Parkour makes me happy. I tried to get it going in my city, but I couldn't find anyone to do it with me.

    I believe it is called "Extreme Running".

    You would have to corner one of them first. And I can't imagine that being an easy task.

    Ha, while I have nothing against running from a fight, I never thought anybody would make it into an "art". Wish I had thought of it, I could have fulfilled my dream of being a Soke.
