Mazda 10 event
« on: July 08, 2008, 04:30:04 PM »
I saw this commercial recently for a sales event Mazda is holding called the "10 Car Dash" model year closeout. There are 10 Mazda models lined up in a row, and a guy jumps on one and leaps across the 10 cars. He's later joined by a black man who's apparently chasing him. He flips and twists around on the tops of the cars before they finally both jump off and run away.



They didn't say who they were, but they look so much like David Belle and Sébastian Foucan that I doubt I'm mistaken (plus, the black man does more flips and tricks than the other guy, so I assume he's the free-running Foucan). I couldn't find a video of the commercial, though, to confirm my assumption.

Mazda is pretty cool, though, and this seems like the sort of thing they would try to do...  ::)

I'm on vacation in palmdale, ca and I just saw a Mazda commercial that heavily featured parkour, I was just wondering if anyone else saw this.

It may be the two guys from UF that did the fake David and Seb interview.

Hey Everyone,
I know the Mazda commercial you are talking about.  It is not exactly team tempest.  It is David Lavera and Victor.  I believe there was also a double used for the commercial.  Victor and the double are involved with team tempest but David LaVera is not part of team tempest.  There are different commercials for the 10 Car Dash so keep your eye out, they are awesome!

Ha I just saw a banner ad for this on a local website and my parkour sense went off. There's a TV commercial too? I'll have to keep an eye out.

She followed slowly, taking a long time,
as though there were some obstacle in the way;
and yet: as though, once it was overcome,
she would be beyond all walking, and would fly.

I know exactly what you're talking about with the "parkour sense" lol.

I was walking around campus one time and saw someone I didn't know looking at a railing weird and thought to myself "I bet he's trying to do parkour" like five seconds before he monkeyed over the railing.  :P
