Is this the same as this, or are there two parkour jugglers?

smackfu: Huh. The second video is the same as that! The first one's different, though, so maybe a double; maybe not.

Roll up and see the coolest guy in the world! He does backflips! He does railgrinds! He vaults entire picnic tables! He leapfrogs statues of people leapfrogging (which, all snark aside, is actually a pretty cool idea)! He waddles around on a folded-up chair and plays with a yo-yo!

...wait, what?

It's a guy running around. I love that they think it has a name.

Me? I'm the foremost Frenishing, which is the sport of opening the fridge in complicated ways.

An awesome juggling freerunner who performs amazing feats of acrobatics... and has the haircut of an accountant.

His day job is video game animator (which informs his hobby and vice versa) - which is pretty cool.

But he has terrible taste in music, his politics are extreme and he is often uncomfortable in social situations. No amount of jiggerypokery is going to make him really cool.

It's gonna suck for him when his knees give out.

An old friend of mine used to joke about his made-up sport called "extreme walking." He'd jump up on railings and "slide" along curbs with his feet. Then parkour came along and he didn't find it funny anymore.

As an aside, if you want to see the greatest parkour scene in cinema history, be sure to watch "Punisher: War Zone."

"parkour," skateboarding, and juggling seem to me about as "cool" as hackey-sacking, ultimate frisbee, and, i don't know, keg-stands. if homeboy cares to work those into his routine, i think we might have a veritable douchebathlon on our hands.
