Jump Britain/ Jump London
« on: February 01, 2006, 08:36:52 PM »
Jump London and Jump Britain are two documentaries focusing on parkour. Jump London (often abbreviated JL) stars Sebastien Foucan, Jerome Ben Aoues, Thierry Lanton, Robert Pires, Johann Vigroux, Jason White, and more. It was made in 2003. Jump Britain (often abbreviated JB) is the sequel to Jump London, and mainly focuses on Sebastien Foucan and Jerome Ben Aoues as they go to various spots around Britain. Every now and then, these documentaries appear on TLC and inform many people on what parkour is. For many people, these two documentaries are their reason for starting parkour. If i forgot anything (which i think i did) please tell me so i can fix and edit this topic. :)

Here are some pictures:

Awesome documentaries and i would recommend them to anyone BUT i was wondering why David Bell doesn't appear in either one
he isn't even mentioned when they talk about how parkour and freerunning originated
live life
live it to the full
