Damien Walters 2010 Parkour And Free Running
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y1oMa3gZPg4
I like to think I am not generally given to hyperbole, but this might be the most amazing video I have seen this year. Damien Walters is a practitioner of parkour, which is “the physical discipline of training to overcome any obstacle within one’s path by adapting one’s movements to the environment” (Wikipedia). In this video we see him practice and perform his moves, and it is literally mind blowing. Using a combination of strength, balance, grace and feline dexterity he truly does overcome any obstacle in his path. Watch and enjoy this inspiring testament to the endless adaptability of the human body, mind and spirit.
