Growing up playing video games I could only dream of doing stunts like this. After seeing a news article on this it made me realize this is something that I would of liked to of done when I was younger. This seems to be a happy median between rock climbing, gymnastics, and running. When I was younger I use to do a lot of rock climbing and I never knew this sport existed. It makes me want to get back into rock climbing and start training in Parkour. This is a sport that more and more people are getting into. With that it is a sport that needs training and discipline. There are many sites out on the Internet that talk about this sport. One of the fathers of this sport is David Belle.

As you can tell this is a sport not for the beginners in the fitness world. Before starting to train it is a good idea to be in somewhat of a physical condition, know your limitations, and don't try anything that you know you can not do. As you train in any sports it is a good idea to know what your limitations are and what you can and can not do. Remember to stay safe and not to do anything stupid.
