[biojc28]

[jdhalligan]

half of the parkour videos on youtube arent proper parkour its free running. parkour has no tricks. parkour isnt ment to be extreme free running is not parkour freerunning is gymnastics outside with no saftey equiptment

[casf120]

there is a difference from parkour and free running

[TheHcomment]

is the real mirrors edge.

[MurdocLC]

I looooove par kour! I hope in the future this will be more mainstream and people actually move around this way.

[dilirent]

@MurdocLC lol..i highly doubt that....1. people are getting fat 2. we are getting lazy

[omega0078]

altair would win.

[andrewthebestes]

At first I was "Oh my God that is so dangerous how could they not get hurt???" but then I saw that it said it is in the UK.

[LuvlyTheBest]

how to pronounce it? Park OUR? or par kuor?

[T1nn3r]

@LuvlyTheBest par kuhr sth like that

[RuralRemnantsParkour]

@LuvlyTheBest Think of it as Par as in the par in golf, and cor like in decor. Thats how I say it at least. It's different every where.

[oli696969]

Freerunning doesn't make going from a to b more efficient, if a building is in the way dont climb over go round it :S

[DaleOfHope]

@oli696969 The shortest distance between 2 points is a line, so it's technically more efficient to go over the building if you have the physical capability ;)

[IPunchaUInTheFace]

@DaleOfHope What about through the building!? MUWAHAAHAA

[oli696969]

@DaleOfHope speed = distance/ time is the distance you have to travel increases and your speed it less (you're climbing up) the time it takes to get from A to B is alot less "efficient". BTW efficiency is the ratio of energy put in to the energy put out, if a mars bar is at the end of the journey, the ratio is much less if you climb a building.

[MaxSafeheaD]

@oli696969

and if where you want to go is up a building?

[oli696969]

@MaxSafeheaD then i'm sure the lift will be quicker...

[MaxSafeheaD]

@oli696969

but the lift is broken and a child is juggling molotov cocktails on the roof ... cough

[oli696969]

@MaxSafeheaD then i'd stand on top of a cannon filled with gun powder, throw a stone at the child to cause him to drop the molotov, that will ignite the fue on the bottom floor sending me into the air and safely onto the roof.

[MaxSafeheaD]

@oli696969

I recon that would get some pageviews =P

[vekalist]

@DaleOfHope if the buildings height is more than 2 times smaller + the diameter of the building than the way around is longer, otherwise take a way around

[bl0000000000]

I can accept the whole jumping over obstacles but is it really more efficient to do random spins and stuff off walls? Seems like a waste of energy

[ariadarabi]

Parkour is more useful in my opinion.

[mzrealm]

0:22 - That handstand reminds me of a skunk attack.

[trinisty]

I wish I could free run...! But cool~ :D

[ben3600]

That last line.. "Why not have a go... on your way to work tomorrow?"

DONT EVEN TRY WITHOUT PROPER TRAINING.

[DawgFL]

@ben3600 u can try basic parkour stuff just not freerunning

[alisub]

i love parkour

[SosolidClaws]

Parkour is just so hardcore.

[ShaltNot07]

how do you not detour around a building LOL

[AerialDreamz]

o.= wtf was was that suppose to be at 00:49?? a wall butterfly kick?!

...looked pretty failtastic lol

[nght5tlkr]

Free running is not parkour =\

[CherriChappi]

PArkour is awesome! Though the dudes on here are not very good.

[kupazmaslemutube]

I was on them stair near IMax free runninf like 3 weeks ago

[tabascojoe77]

haha awesome

[11meow11]

Shitty song choice, as well as letter style.

[G3org3Master]

@11meow11 Stop fucking complaining you loser and pay attention to the actual video.

[11meow11]

@G3org3Master You dumbass that is exactly what i was commenting on.

[GRAVISPK14]

[TriggaBlade]

LMAOO "The Quickest way to travel..." well at least to the hospital

[OneLessPerson]

crappy song choice 

[Dante249]

was training at Imax the other day! :D

[hiflyby]

freerunning and parkour are NOT the same thing

[PatrikVorg]

@hiflyby Can you fill me in on the difference?

[DremoraDark]

@PatrikVorg Free running is centered around doing tricks, even if these tricks waste time and take a lot of effort. Parkour is more about getting from a to b efficiently. Free runners will tend to do many unnecessary flips and tricks, mostly for the cool factor.

[hiflyby]

@DremoraDark thank you

[jmerridew124]

@DremoraDark So where would, say, Mirror's Edge stand?

[DremoraDark]

@jmerridew124 I only played the demo, she can't afford the luxury of tricks considering she's running away from armed thugs much of the time. It's mostly parkour, but it's a video game, that means they have to add in a bit of flair here and there.

From what I saw during the demo it was 95% parkour.

[djbroncoroc]

@DremoraDark wow....I'm a traceur (parkour athlete) I don't do free running but i do parkour and dude, you just someone that studies this you don't actually do it so your just another version of a poser pretty much. Have you ever done a backflip into a pool or any flip at all, cause if you have it feels great! And I'm sure anyone thats done a flip can agree. I do parkour cause I got no mats, fuck I'd probably do free running if I did. So just shut up mister COOL

[DasEnkindler]

@djbroncoroc I used to practice parkour genius. And yes, I have done backflips into pools, etc. Flips and fancy tricks DO waste time and energy. If you're just in it for the "cool factor" use your mattress to practice.

[djbroncoroc]

@DasEnkindler I actually don't do it for the "cool" factor because...well if you've "done parkour before" then you'd now a lot of people say its lame as fuck and hate on you for doing it. But still free running FlIPS tricks etc. are necessary. Fuckers like you and assholes that support this freerunning/parkour debate is retarded. Pakour is an art form an art form thats free, very free. and your contradicting it. These people do flips cause it helps them with there flow, its just a deferent

[djbroncoroc]

@DasEnkindler just a different style a different way to communicate thru there body. Also the debate is retarded cause they move, and see EXACTLY what we see....NO other person besides a traceur can see the city like us ITS "WFPF" PEOPLE!!!NOT WPF!!!

[djbroncoroc]

@DremoraDark YOU ARE A TOOL!! A BIG HUGE TOOL, I HOPE YOU PARKOUR ONTO A BROKEN BOTTLE!!! TOOL!!!

[uniballpenman]

@DremoraDark I thought it was the opposite. :O THX :D

[neotim5]

[x]Parkour=Speed
