It's called 'free running' (I think... free something anyway). There was this whole 1 hour documentary on it. I think a guy in France started it and now him and a group of guys from all over the world were free running across the US (the cities anyways)

The doc was so cool to watch I forgot some of the details. It's amazing what these guys do...

Yeah, it's pretty cool. I used to do that. Now I'm looking at knee replacement surgery! But good luck to those guys. I wonder if anybody'll get an endorsement deal someday.

Wow, the athleticism required for that is amazing. Only the maddest of props to them.

'Course, I'd hate to see what their accidents look like. Falling off a building must suck beyond belief.
