Nice freestyler running moves - with an awesome video.

See more here.

From wikipedia :

Parkour is an art form of human movement, focusing on uninterrupted, efficient forward motion over, under, around and through obstacles (both man-made and natural) in one's environment. Such movement may come in the form of running, jumping, climbing and other more complex techniques. The goal of practicing parkour is to be able to adapt one's movement to any given scenario so that any obstacle can be overcome with the human body's abilities.

Hell yeah, I suddenly remember some talks that I have with my mates about our prime time at high school, whose keep telling story about few abilities that students must have in order to get out from school dormitory in the middle of the night to do whatever you want to do (see your girlfriend, bought Gudang Garam cigarettes (Indonesian made) & few bottles of Coke at old Chinese man retail shop, getting your marijuana & cough end (cough syrup) supply from your tokans, so that you can smoke joints and drink those mixed Coke with cough syrup with friend after prep at night in dorm (and make lots of crazy stunts, stupid acts and verry stupid jokes after that with your stoned friends), stealing latest album from record shop, bringing girls to your dorm, etc... etc.. etc.. you name it and we've done it. O yeah, those old days were the sweet times ever. We've done that without further thinking on the consequences other than want to have a good time, therefore I dont think we do need any abilities to accomplished what we've done other than courage and quick thinking, and of course, co-operation from our brother in arms. Therefore I asked him, "what are those abilities you're mentioning just now?"

And he said, that will be including jumping over/under fence or any form of obstacles (or go through those fucking obstacles if you feel you have superpower, which is very stupid for anyone to think that, unless you got yourself wire cutter or wall breaker of some sort), sneaking past guards without his/her knowing (or maybe right in front of their nose if you brave enough to risk from getting caught and receive capital punishment from school board later on) and be quick to lie convincingly through your teeth if get caught red-handed by school dorm warden and his faithful kiss-ass soldiers during their night rounds (although, in that situation, excuses usually are not accepted rather than be convicted straightaway, so better not get caught at all).

From here I can see that these guys actually have developed a basic of complex or enhanced Parkour which combining very nice social engineering skills with the art of Parkour together to formed an Enhanced/Complex Parkour (Though not in official/constructive ways). Combining the art of Parkour with with social engineering method in order to gain objectives target could be a new ways to enhance the art of Parkour, I would guess, as this is just a raw crazy idea of mine which will need to be specifically addressed if anyone want to see how it will be heading. I wonder what David Belle would think about my crazy vision on Parkour..........

Fuck it. Time to head on to Mamak Mapley and get myself a glass of hot milk and enjoy any leftover from World Cup Series.
emmm... milk...
