Danny Ilabaca - Choose Not To Fall

[@cecillewolters1995]

10years later and I still watch this video. What a legend

[@alejandrofernandez4529]

same. now im looking for another video, but i dont remember the name. F***!

[@thepeacockx]

bruh same

[@Hombre-DJE-Mundo777]

The bird on your shoulder in your profile picture is good.

[@cecillewolters1995]

@@Hombre-DJE-Mundo777 Thank you :3 The bird is called Chili, he is a cockatiel and a good boi ^^

[@waldenwasted2665]

10 years later and I finally can fully understand what he's saying. I was in high school when first I saw this video, but a I didn't really understand it. Now that I approach the adult life, I see that many people, in life, fall because of fear and lack of control. Just choose not to fall.

[@BoomerangBartlett]

walden wasted same as me bro

[@StevoNoBraino0803]

I can see that becoming a big saying in parkour: "If you're afraid to fall, you fall because you're afraid"

[@niccoPk]

"everything is choice" (I still quote it to this day)

[@ZelphTheWebmancer]

A comment made 10 years ago and one made 10 months ago. That's neat.

[@paulomeirelle3243]

This touched my heart when I was 18. It still touches me now that I'm about to complete 30. So powerful!

it is! lol

[@petereames3041]

I still quote him now

[@nikkotonolete761]

9 years ago this video came out and it inspired me to quote the last bit in my middle school valedictorian speech. Watching this back now gives me such chills. I never realized how much I ended up living by this man’s words. Everything’s a choice so choose not to fall. Daniel will always be a legend.

"Parkour is a tool that can be used for so much good. And it’s just for people to become aware of that before it gets to late, to a point where parkour becomes completely physical, it becomes just competition or about making money and the message is lost." -- Never forget people!

[@JeremyHansenblue2kid3]

12 almost 13 years ago. Thanks Dani thank you

[@Chiarox8]

14 years later and I'm still watching this video. Coming from a bad situation in my life, I hope this reminds when I was stronger in the past...when I used to think only about the present...you know, because "when you're on the moment, is when your are able to do things other people can't do"

[@Marijnbekke123]

14 years later still incredible

[@RaceFord777]

thats how i feel. everyday i thank god im still alive and that im able to do what i love without injury. just respecting everything hes put on this earth. everylife is precious. no matter how small or big. even though we have no control of the future. we do have control for the now. so make a good now to remember in the future.... "Courage is not the absence of fear. It is the presence of fear but yet the will to go on."..."To fear death is to limit life.".. these are justa few mottos i live by

[@jeverbever]

"Less time thought on condition for the future, and more time for just enjoying the fact that you got another day around" - Daniel Ilabace. Gonna save this. Truly wise and true words.

[@CriticalFX1]

Glad I came back to this video after so many years. Still has the same effect on me

[@upsidedown4557]

I don't know why.... but this video made me cry a little for the first times in years. It just really touched me somehow! Very inspirational to me!

[@yazangmarar9605]

Still relative to this day God bless

[@frezieduh3457]

I must be 10,000 of these 65k views. My boy showed it to me when it came out and I still watch it here and there

[@1256778]

Over the years, I've kept coming back to this profound video. It boosts me back up whenever I'm going nowhere in my training/ life, and to remind why I started doing parkour. Danny, thank you!

[@UrbanFluidityFreerun]

Danny is the good older brother of parkour who moved out and gives you advice after your alchaholic dad leaves(David belle)

[@sandy3333Pk]

Thank you Danny for the inspiration... Its been 9 yrs since you posted this 🤘 Every word in this video has a deep meaning !!

[@dheavenj.kelley3591]

Here I am 10 years later.

[@nikoskar2224]

2020 and I am still watching this!!

[@lethalassassin1754]

Needed to come back to this. Was watching parkour experts react and Sydney Olson said what people don’t understand is that parkour is actually really competitive. Now that false information is going to be spread. Rather than saying she competes in comps and thats what she enjoys she made it seem like this is what its all about...

[@KGB3]

The man who opened my eyes! :)

[@brotahojk54]

2022 anyone? Feeling nostalgic

[@HuGoOPk]

2024, still living the moment 😌

[@thekursedone760]

Was 21 when my cousin first showed this to me. Almost 10 years later im here to take this advice into my life once again. Synchrony.

[@stevenpaulescu3645]

0:05 best message for me (because you have no clue about tomorrow, so you can (if you choose to) see your problems through a new perspective and never again wait for them to be solved)

[@nokrati3run]

Living Legend Daniel Ilabaca ❤

[@Tcat5310]

Danny: your perspective of life and parkour and religion is just magnificent...It's people like you who make the world so bright... I wish i had friends like this...

[@oliround]

"If you're afraid to fall, you fall because you're afraid." We become what we think about. Our thoughts determine the quality of our minds.

[@SwitchJaStro]

Just moved into a new neighbourhood and noticed there was a parkour gym a few blocks away. Instantly remembered Danny Ilabaca, Tim Shieff and that whole crew. What a throwback finding these videos again. Think I've come full circle, and will be joining that gym next month!

[@SwitchJaStro]

and wow, his words ring with truth more than ever now.

[@crazymudman123]

Still so inspiring for me. Twelve years later.

[@WelziCZ]

"If your afraid to fall you fall because your afraid. Everything is choice."

[@Hostile276]

Can u imagine if half a town used parkour to get around? JUST IMAGINE

[@baba3styler]

I just can't stop watching this video man!!!!!!!

[@AsinUniCorn]

“If you’re afraid to fall you fall because you’re afraid. Everything is a choice.”

[@theanswertoeverything7908]

Thank you Danny you shaped a young mind many years ago(me)

[@tattoodrdoke]

I use to jog and do parkour in my local park. I found it really relaxing.

[@moosesnWoop]

Classic.

[@flyculture21]

what a genious. Amazing person. Like historically great person.

[@faunaflage]

Great little doc. I'm not from the parkour community, but this doc is inspirational to all digital creatives. I put up a post about it on my blog, Fauna Corporation, because I think it has a lot of cross-over appeal to other multimedia types. Very cool stuff. Nice work.

[@Tcat5310]

@Tcat5310 when he was revived, he wrote down my grandmothers prayer, and not a single word was missed...How do you explain THAT? This has happened to many people...Some people have died and went to hell for a minute.... Im sorry, but you weren't looking...Because once you truly want to be in a relationship with God, you'd look for it, and find it. I did. I used to never hear him....But one day i decided that it's time to step up my game....I hear him everyday, i see him everywhere.

[@MarceliusPK]

it's incredible

[@spiderthenics9462]

Iconic locations still used today.Although Parkour is no longer a form of freedom but rather a competition of who makes more flashy moves. I guess its what Daniel says between 2:52 and 3:02

[@menj1219]

god bless you danny youre my inspiration dude keep strong

[@joeboulia]

he has great philosophies on life

[@Wolframm90]

Danny you re great!!!!!!!!!!!

[@chrispyman101]

[@moosemanuk]

Inspirational Danny, keep on running mate. Stef (Far off cousin!)

[@Eitautas3runner]

[@EtongIyo]

[@NixonFreeRunner]

a classic video

[@Tcat5310]

@DanParkour360 He is in a sense....He briefly mentions his Christianity.

[@kyleroberts162]

What a god

[@grreenline]

[@yergabro]

Трейсеры СНГ, отзовитесь.. Зашел сюда спустя столько лет и обнаружил, что тот самый 17 летний Я всё живёт где-то внутри меня....

"If you afraid to fall, you'll fall because you afraid"

[@jbillion]

can i get this on my ipod???

[@JIeBKA]

Really... really nice! Thank you! p.s.: waiting for you in Moscow, again :)

[@kaitlyncuadrapk]

♥️♥️♥️👍👍👍😁😁

[@mylife4242]

thanks for the insight i appreciate it but i think im at my stopping point for flips i cant get the balls to try new ones.

[@mylife4242]

How can u practice parkour when u have no were to do it at?

[@Tcat5310]

@DanielStacy I actually live in So Cal;) Ya, no worries. I am sorry you never got to see God like i did.... But to get back to topic, this video is very inspiring. I always felt this, but i could never put it into words, especially that amazing! ~Pe@cE~

[@BlackinDahPants]

im gonna remember these words..

[@cecillewolters1995]

Tyler Richard Did you still know them, before reading my comment?

[@JonathanR2142]

@nahataankit 476 people tried or have tried this at home, dude what are you talking about?

[@jbillion]

@mylife4242 there is no stoping point.

[@1zin1]

@StevoNoBraino0803 thats been said for anything and more so in sports for ages. :\

[@eitautasgaubys4924]

he is awakened:)

[@RyApex]

lol was in dannys on NYE decent night

[@Tcat5310]

@DanielStacy Well by saying that it's inevitable to not spark something dude...First, thats not what christianity is at all.....He IS actually a christian, also. Christianity IS about searching for your OWN relationship with god...Not a priest, thats catholicism...In christanity, you are a christian once you accept god into your life(believe he is God, and can redeem your sins) Im not trying to persuade you... Just understand the religion before talking about it ;)

[@EdSoCeRiAl]

@DanParkour360 think about it [:

[@MrThefreakout]

188 person understands this...1 is a hater and as no heart....and i agree parkour do changes live

[@Fictionparkour]

@Hostile276 then thered be queues to do things, and it would become human traffic haha

[@RyuOpeacefulwarrior]

@menj1219 good words man...good words

[@Tcat5310]

@DanielStacy I'm actually very open minded, so what proof do you have? Are you sure you were a christian? Thats not something we would do.... Wanna know why i believe? Because my great grandfather was killed from a heart attack for about 2 minutes about 30 years ago, and what he described seeing was of colors unimaginable, and a description of heaven...He also saw my grandmother praying for him to come back, and god answering "he can be with you a little while longer" and guess what?

[@LighSpectrum]

the best part was how he didnt preach god at us. Its just one of his views.

[@nahataankit]

6 people tried this at home!

[@PurpleElixer]

Yeah but he donated it to charity :)

[@Gunter478]

Good athlete, smart, ignorant, "before-scientific man"

[@NELLOsoulimage]

[@Sephiroth32vergil]

@WatchRealismHack he isn't saying its bad to make money doing it... but he's saying he isn't in it for the money... but hey if you could make money doing something you're passionate about wouldn't you take the opportunity?

[@TDTAlpha]

Did he say "The reason I gained from the Israeli" ? NICE
