I'm surprised it's caught my attention so well, but there's something about it, and the fact that it grew up from kids wanting to do it, not as a "sport" being pushed with lots of money...
I think I saw that this lad came second in the Parkour/Freerunning World Championships, which doesn't surprise me at all - I just rewatched the two vids I first saw (in the link above to Siskiou) and he seems very good...
I think of our lads when I watch Parkour too - I'm sure I posted about it somewhere, though I couldn't find it specifically in the one up above... probably in the comments, just like this... *g* Hee - I wonder if CI5 agents today might be trained in freerunning... *g*
