Free running?

Anyone catch this on TLC last night?

I watched some of it, but we were getting the boys to bed, so I missed most of it. Seems interesting. I wish I was in good enough shape to do what those guys were doing.[8D]

It's one of those cool, youthfull things that are dangerous and could result in injury lawsuits -- if it were in this country anyway.[&:]

I think skateboarders here in the US are similar to those guys -- not in the roof top to rof top sense, but in the urban obsacle aspect.

I don't think I'd like my kid doing it, and I don't think I'd like some stranger using my house as an obstacle, but if the guys aren't harming people or property, they aren't being nuisances, and they're not suing over their own stupid injuries, it seems OK!

I thought it was interesting. It was one of those things like extreme sports that seems to create an overkill effect quickly so that you cannot hardly fathom what is happening. If you were to stand next to one of those guys and watch him make one of those jumps from building to building or from a high railing to a lower one, you'd probably stand there in awe.

Its wild how things progress. I thought I was radical when I put a playing card in the spokes of my bicycle as a kid.

The neighborhood squirrels pull that crap every day on my roof. Except they don't splatter like humans.
