orson 0 Posted March 26, 2005 Heh , they are indeed mad  , special clothing involves tight pants to give support ... so yer balls dont end up in yer sock after a high jump !  seriously  , dont wanna seem like a dad or anything but , its a dangerous sport and you should not attempt it without training .

Messiah 2 Posted March 26, 2005 i joined my local club a few months back... its an extremely disciplined sport and although the risk are there, its like any sport - if you know what you're doing, and you don't get out of your depth, then its safe Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Artak 0 Posted March 26, 2005 Total control and knowledge of your own body. Looks very impressive. I'd love to be able to do that stuff.. however, I don't see it possible in the near future with this beerbelly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bordoy 0 Posted March 26, 2005 I wont be doing that aslong there's any other job around. One slip and your a gonna. Prefer other jobs where you have many chances if you make a mistake. This reminds me of an advert thingy on BBC showing this guy jumping on London's rooftops. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Acecombat 0 Posted March 26, 2005 Crazy but damn good  Discovery Channel had something that remines me about this, "Jumping London" or something. Exactly , ive seen that series those guys went all over London from only roofs , it was hypnotic to simply see them keep on jumping from one roof to another for an hour And ive seen a movie (french one) in which during the film a couple of miscreants kept on losing the police by jumping from house to house it was filled with wierd stunts Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tomislav 0 Posted March 26, 2005 wow, that's amazing in my opinion, although it is dangerous Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Victor_S. 0 Posted March 26, 2005 Yea Ive seen this video before it was called Free Runners or something. Anyways I like the one were the guy jumps cleanly over the car . As for what I think about them, they appear to be very......um athletic Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rommel 2 Posted March 27, 2005 These guys did a trick here in Australia recently, they were on top of the Adelaide Football Grounds (AFL) which has a roof that closes in when unwanted weather is trying to sneak in and demoralize the players, they jumped across it when it was 5m open. (eg if it was a 100m wide the roof was closed 95m) Its not just in France or England for that matter. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

(eg if it was a 100m wide the roof was closed 95m) Its not just in France or England for that matter. Â there was a documentary on C4 about em called jump england or whatever. THey did the same thing on the millenium stadium, only while it was open wider than 5m me and my friends have a less extreme version called bench jumping. My friend can do a hand stand over a bench (ie jump, do the handstand on the bench, then flip off) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Harnu 0 Posted March 27, 2005 I've seen a couple of these videos of some of the crazy shit the'se guys do. It's really impressive to see them doing this. I don't remember what company, but I remember seeing a commercial or two with these guys hopping around the buildings. Really good stuff. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
