That was very good, except for the "parkour means obstacle course" bit. That's not exactly true, nonetheless, it was very good.

that was an excellent report and I am so very very glad that Parkour is coming up more and more in the news. The reporters seemed very positive and seemed to understand what they were trying to get across. I like how they said parkour is about saving others and yourself. + 1

Great Piece! They called the one woman, Keri, a 'Traceur,' but hey, we're the only people who might care.

Video decided not to play for me. I just read the transcript. It was good. Good job, PK Cali! I thought "parkour" comes from "parcours du combattant" = "course of the combatant" = military obstacle course?

Parcour means course, hence that phrase. Parkour is a slight variation, meaning path or course.
