Free running will always be cool, so long as the person doing it is good enough.

Watching that makes me realize in what bad shape I am. Actually, I've never been in any kind of good shape... But that's pretty cool to watch!

Fantastic.

I saw a documentary last year or so about this Parkour (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parkour) thing, featuring some guy doing absolutely mindblowing jumps and climbs and assorted other stunts.

Astonishingly enough, I do remember from the documentary that apparently there aren't even that many broken bones. Go figure.

Was that the 'Jump London' documentary mentioned in the wiki article? I saw that too - it was so cool. Wish I could do it. Goddamn my general lack of fitness and motivation.

I'm pretty sure it was, because that Wiki article seemed pretty comprehensive in terms of media coverage, so it's not like there's this huge number of things it could have been, and it certainly had one of the "masters of the craft" in it. I don't really remember, though.
