Crap News report in Australia, (Channel Ten)...ahhhhhhh
« on: December 20, 2007, 04:47:03 AM »
Tonight’s (Thursday) late night news on channel ten annoyed me greatly by trying to make out that Parkour was just another stupid sport for young people to hurt themselves by doing.

They didn’t say anything about the conditioning/training that goes into Parkour, besides a few lines from one traceur, Other then that the reporters were just pretty muchedexcuse the bad grammar raved on about how parkour was for thrill seekers that want to test their limits by jumping between multiple story buildings and doing dangerous stunts. >:(

I don't know if anybody in America can watch/download the little segment, but if anyone can, can you please post a link so that people can analyse it.


They did say "Parkour" right though, ha, thats the only thing I'll give them credit for

cant believe they would do that but, it was bound to happen sooner or later though.
