The Dogmother Posted June 3, 2009 Share Posted June 3, 2009 Just watch this bounce around - he seems to have extra springs in his legs! Breathtaking! *I didn't see any nasty comments with this clip when I looked, but can't be held responsible if you dig far enough and find any!* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ain't Nobody Here Posted June 3, 2009 Share Posted June 3, 2009 Wow . I had my mouth open for some of those moves . Very fine six pack he had there . (Although I know you were more interested in that bald head, Claret .) I wonder if he ever actually walks normally . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valkyrie Posted June 4, 2009 Share Posted June 4, 2009 Wow, what a gymnast! He made it look so easy, I think I'll go and let the hens out like that! As someone who never managed to climb up the rope doing gymnastics at school, I was very impressed with the lamp stunt! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am sure some young person will come & tell me soon Free running, started in France, the bloke in the video is French. Thanks Fred, I wasn't a million miles off was I? There was a superb sequence at the beginning of 'Casino Royale' (I think) of this & it took my breath away. I love the way its so powerful & controlled,but still so graceful.

I am sure some young person will come & tell me soon Free running, started in France, the bloke in the video is French. Are you sure Fred? I googled him and it says he is an Olympic gymnast from the UK. He seems to have done some film stunt work too - not surprisingly! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted June 4, 2009 Author Share Posted June 4, 2009 Ahhh, I was wonderign whether he was a stunt man. The footage looks to be shot in the UK - RHD car, rugby posts etc No sexy French accent then, but a chance that I might bump into him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Helly Welly Posted June 4, 2009 Share Posted June 4, 2009 He is truly amazing He should go to Japan and go on Ninja Warrior , he'd win easily http://e3.g4tv.com//ninjawarrior/ We can watch this highly addictive show on Virgin 1 at 8am every day.

He also (with his team) did a really cool program on channel 4 about freerunning around london. Can't remember what it was called, but they basically parkoured over a load of famous london monuments and places of interest. I have to say I always thought he was abit godlike, but this english chap makes him look clumsy...stunning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BeckyBoo Posted June 7, 2009 Share Posted June 7, 2009 No sexy French accent then, but a chance that I might bump into him I wouldn't worry too much about conversation Claret! He was eye candy wasn't he? I LOVE watching Parkour - the main HQ for PK UK is based near me and I actually saw a couple of guys on my way to work doing it once - nowhere near this guys level, but still amazing to watch www.urbanfreeflow.com BeckyBoo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
