Hi hi, this video really made me smile and brought back good memories. I enjoyed myself as much as the kids and I'm proud to have been even the smallest part in this. Working with the kids and seeing how much fun they had with it couldn't have been better.

I had only rehearsed it with the smallest group, the "Parkour Experts" and standing up and seeing the mass of people behind me in the mexican wave was awe inspiring. Thanks for the oportunity and keep up the good work.

Hey these kids are better at interviews than most politicians.

I had a hell of a good time, on the run up and on the day of this.

I cant wait to hear of more events to come.
