Okay so basically, its lunch time, im 15 years old, and the senior steroid football players were all playing football. Me and my friends are chilling out on the grass and the ball ends up by my feet. I picked it up and gave it a kick... the wind must've caught it or something cause that ball went flyying flying flyiinggggggggg anddd right onto the roof of my school. =o

So i'm sitting there about 5'7'' 140 pounds MAYBE, and i've got the entire senior football team PRETTY pissed that they cant continue there afternoon game of ball... the roof is pretty unnaccessable, and i had never been up there before. but i told the team "rest assured! i shall get it..." (in reality i had NO idea what i was to do next....)

but then i saw it, it was a little metal cage placed oh-so perfectly against the wall,  a hop off that, and my first foot hits the wall, and i pop and reach like i have NEVER reached before.

i grab and hang for a second in disbelief, and pull myself up.
i make quick work of finding the ball and toss it onto the grass,

i hear a rumbling cheer from over the edge and i sigh and realize i wont be riding my bike home bloody.


and THAT is how parkour saved my ass.

 

this will go down in history as the culmination of epic....haha not really but great story, u get any ppl into parkour afterwords?

congrats man. that is an beautiful piece 

Wow thats the worlds most Amazing Untold story of Parkour. That one actually made me shed a tear (not really im too manly but its what in the meaning)when I hear about the roar of cheers as you tossed the ball.

im glad you guys found it as enjoyable as i did.

sophomore- sophisticated moron/wise fool...like literally thats what it means haha

+1 great story

I think it's supposed to mean "more wise". From "Sophos" (Greek for "wise") and "more"... since in your second year you are supposed to be a bit wiser than what you were in your freshman year....Great story none the less
