I'd like to see some other videos of theirs. It looks like they've got talent. But WOWZERS at the gainer in the beginning. One slip-up and /end.

Omg, I don't care what you think, but there is no way your body can ever be conditioned to take THAT much impact.

As much skill as they show those two huge drops were ridiculously unnecessary. To be honest it is just hem really trying to make a name of themselves. Props for the rest but that was just .... too much.

When I first watched this (honestly) my knees/ankles seriously began to hurt! That doesnt display your abilities that just display's how the human body can survive such huge drops (but how many big drops can the human body really handle consecutively?).

that was just stupid. Impressive and sure it takes a lot of balls, but, I don't see the point in putting yourself in unnecessary danger.

It's just men stroking their egos by jumping off bigger crap than each other and throwing flips in the free-fall. Stupid.

What I have just seen is amazing. These guys are GOOD. Even though there is no good reason for any human with any amount of skill or strength to do those stupidly gigantic jumps, I applaud them.
With that said, I really hope that this practice does not spread.

Its cool to see that the body is designed so perfectly that it can handle those drops, though.

if you need a drop of that size to do a layout gainer then.....you cannot do a layout gainer.
Did you see that landing? He totally ate shit. I am surprised he could move after that.
Not to mention the double front that he landed on his BACK.
Having balls without the skill to back it up is a good way to get yourself killed.
I am not impressed in the least with their little lazy vault combos. Their drops are insane and stupid. Unless they change their ways, they will never get respect from real traceurs. Simply put.
An unbelievable amount of skill and mental fortitude goes into low impact training...much more than it takes to suicide yourself off of a bridge to do a layout gainer. If you don't believe me, you should train with HCT from NJ for 1 day and it might change your whole view of parkour.

I must say though the guy who back flipped off that entire building has some grrrrrrrrrrreat body control!!!  Where you get the nerve to do such a stunt I have no clue!  Just think about standing on the ledge of a 3 story building and seeing actually how high it is!!! Scarrrrrrrrry! |

The building flip he just fell on his butt. Simply put, this is too much for anyone to handle.

Although that gainer in the beginning looked real cool, there is no way you could land that without risking injuring yourself. That guy has some real guts, but sometimes you need a lot more. I would never try that do to the fact that I might never be able to do parkour again.

The guys in the video had balls but that's about it. Big flashy stunts don't make up for sloppy technique.

there were a few really cool moves in it though. only like one or two.
and there impact isn't really as bad as it seems, true its from high heights but they're landing on sand, much more low impact than concrete/dirt/grass etc. so its really not doing as much damage but is still very risky and damaging to the body.
