Crazy Russians doing acrobatic stunts hundreds of feet above the ground
Within seconds of starting this video, the strength in all my muscles evaporated and was replaced by an aching dread. I still feel it in my shoulders…

No, thanks. I want to live.
The foolishness of youth. Sad to see people with so little appreciation for the life they’ve been given to risk it so stupidly for just the thrill of it.
Particularly when considering the risk vs. reward of it all.
For instance, Alex Honnold takes great risks in doing his climbs, but he sets amazing world records while doing so.
These folks takes similar risks and they can claim an accomplishment of…doing some stupid stuff for a youtube video.
I can’t watch.
Me either!! It makes my legs all tingly!! I got like 60 seconds in and couldn’t continue.
Darwin awards anyone?
I just wish this wasn’t how people thought of parkour. This is very distinctly NOT what most parkour athletes do. These are crazy/stupid/thrill-seeking Russian kids. Most parkour looks like this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=diVbGh0k0Jo
Which is much more fun!
What idiots! Couldn’t, didn’t want to watch this…there are enough idiots in this world that I am faced to look at/deal with everyday…don’t need to see these guys!
