Peugeot 207 vs Parkour (Free-Runners) - Top Gear - BBC

[@phlogios]

"Why isn't it called Liverpool then?" "Well.. uh" HAHAHHA

[@jaggass]

It's true. It's like saying Tomayto and Tomahto, Scones,Scohnes etc

[@AutoTraderTV]

Once again, you guys nail it! We try to have as much fun with our car reviews...

[@aak247]

AutoTrader? In a TopGear video?

[@Fireglo]

Ah yes the Parkour fad of the mid 2000's when every TV show was including parkour even The Bill. Good times.

[@staidenofanarchy]

Produced some of the best action sequences in recent memory though!

[@Fireglo]

@@staidenofanarchy And two of the greatest video games of all time: Mirror's Edge and Assassin's Creed II.

[@ahzhd423]

Nice to see I’m not the only one who came back to reminisce

[@Muck006]

Go and look up the channel "STORROR" ... it isnt a fad.

[@lukesorley]

Don't forget movies like Casino Royale, too.

[@b0unce805]

Parkour will always prevail and have spare time to rub it in your face by doing handstands

[@Bobzgfx]

Freerunner105 Good luck when you are no longer in the city child.

[@ProfesserLuigi]

Well the whole point of Parkour is that you can go fast in a city environment. That's like saying "Good luck beating me when you're out of the water, sailfish!"

[@guttyxx]

"A couple of young men, in silly trousers." x'] funny as hell

[@stuartbarclay7940]

5:35 James: Come on! We're not ALL shopping!

[@yungspaceman]

i said iPod like its spelt lol

[@alexanderv.r8362]

Fancypants lol

[@stuartbarclay7940]

7:12 James: Oh, for Pete sake!

[@faisalhalim]

Fantastic, and hilarious, at the same time. Great presentation, from the BBC (and reliably so), especially of some of the stunts in parkour.

[@ParkourSyah]

LOL at the end, the free runners look like super heroes XD

[@TheMassyl]

240p here we meet again!

[@skeligun]

that was intense, one of the best challenges on top gear, was great they brought in parkour.

[@Ruinah]

From 2:10 to 2:38 - Fuck yeah, Killing Joke!

[@swat5395984]

I said the same think dude🤟

[@LukePearce911]

Anyone else watching random clips of the lads now that they have called it a day?

[@TrinenxD]

Captain Slow, we love you :D

[@saser400]

"The Liva building? Why isn't it called Livapool then?"....James is a legend XD

[@Bomas_]

Parkour is actually trying to get from point A to B as fast as possible

[@consumers007]

These guys are experts and how can a car possibly defeat 2 well trained and physically fit parkour experts..

[@GhibliFan1]

Just finished reading an article from last year that featured on Auto Trader. It was carried out by an independent market analyst and concluded that the Peugeot 207 was the most reliable USED car on the market, with just 6% breaking down in the 1st year, and still the most reliable over 5yrs. If you get the diesel 1.4, it's £30 per year to tax, insurance group C and gives you 64-73mpg depending on the kind of driving. It's the perfect first car for many, many reasons...and yeah, I drive one. :)

[@chazstahs]

one of those guys was parkour trained, the other free running. the beanie guy did not do multiple flips over.. signs, bins, tables where as the other did. mainly, saving his energy and faster travelling time.

[@arnonym3766]

0:23 wtf is wrong with his finger? drugs?

[@aspookyknucklehead1309]

Chuck Norris hahahahahahaahahahahaahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaah

[@mmw017]

Anyone can drive a car, but not everyone can do a freakin handstand on top of a building! Whoever came up with this is amazing and has some balls to jump over buildings and shit.

[@Serve3000]

Young Ilabaca as a teenager. He still looks the same

[@xmind22]

@3:50 the old man was like, "hah, that's nothing!"

[@wasuprobleemjoh]

4:27 5:06 hes at the same place o.o

[@killerclone2177]

my men be standing on a viewpoint ready to synchronize

[@Funeral4aFan]

James May says "I must have averaged 10 or 12 miles an hour. I should win." Traceurs and traceuses can run at those speeds, but it's in a straight line. It's faster, it's more fun, it's more athletic, and the world itself seems brand new. You start looking at everything differently. Now, which is more fun, parkour or Peugeot?

[@wywern209]

lol at the end. "oh1 for pete's sake!" LOL

[@devilslayerthesaintofkille1317]

Taxi 4 vs District B13, the two greatest Luc Besson movies.

[@manoffewhomes]

old man at 3:50 "kids these days and their fancy running."

[@esiuol360girl19]

it would be so funny if the guy in the white top fell off the top of the building after all that hahaha lol

[@ATBparkour]

LOOL... Right mate.. So you're telling me that the cameraman managed to climb up the Liver building in the space of the race? LOOOOOOOL

[@1RedFox2]

i started parkour a year ago. at first i really wanted to do it but felt like id never be able to. now after a year me and my friends are really good and all we did was look up tutorials and teach our selves. and we are actually good now.

[@SoulDragonWithFlow]

One of my favorite episodes of topgear

[@rickyw867]

@TheKre8ion from wikipedia: The term freerunning is sometimes incorrectly used interchangeably with l'art du déplacement. While l'art du déplacement aims to enable the practitioner to be able to move quickly and creatively past obstacles, freerunning is a competition sport, with Urban FreeFlow being credited with this change of definition. Freerunning includes the use of tricking moves such as aerial rotations and spins, ....theres more

[@icancountmyABC]

awesome race! once again parkour gives the world a jaw dropper

[@Neos_ghost]

He didn't seem impressed 3:49

[@azntranc3951]

"...and I've won!" *camera pans to parkour guys chilling and doing a headstand *FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU faced

[@benchatburn]

Came for the Traceur, stayed for the ippod connector

[@Traceur97flyer]

I like that handstand at the end! :)

[@kao_1]

LOL very nice way to finish that challenge.. great video, smooth movements.

[@Deep0cean14]

I would like to do parkour as well as they do. Like James said, they are masters. They totally rock!

[@richnick001]

Them 2 are actually professionals..They was actually quite a few big drops in that vid, none of which stunned the feet either. Good race btw ^.^

[@BelialsGenuflect]

Wow, you have fun snow days. What an exciting life *rolls eyes*.

[@LoveLyricalRideXMunchLax88]

Awesome Race In Liverpool! So whos the winner, is it james may or the two parkour free-runners?

[@MunnsProductions]

love the way james sed the liver building is 6 miles away an its litrally up the road haha..

[@Bwukkip]

Excuse me sir, could you tell me where the Liver building is? - Oh no, the LIIIIVER building. Then why isn't it called LIIIVERpool? - Well, yea, eerm Love it!

[@cristiandepechemode]

exelente video , exelente auto, exelente el estado fisico de los flacos

[@laurence231]

4:23 some kid shouts "grandma!"

[@TimpBizkit]

Doing a hand stand on the outer wall! Badass!

[@UberMan5000]

2:09 Best description of parkour ever.

[@BoDuke1231]

7:10 Press Y to synchronise. *After Jumping off*: Where the F* is my hay to land in.

[@Erospk1]

its hilarious that theyre just standing up on top of the building

[@patatohead123]

Haha the cops at 5:47 are like fuck it i'm not chasing that.

[@captainmercury26]

woaahh wtf they jumped from the second story of a mall xD i cant even imagine haha

[@TheGreedyassassin]

@Ivobe2 they make the drop seem higher than it is and the guys roll to absorb the shock of the fall which is why they jump from great heights without hurting themselves

[@metzdorf]

love the conversation at 4.40min

[@DaphneIkingOfficial]

This was hilariously fun.

[@LittlePiscesReading]

I think the one with the hat was a practitioner of Parkour. The other one was probably the free-runner.

[@UberMan5000]

Parkour is about getting from here to there as fast as you can, while freerunning is more about doing crazy stunts as you go along.

[@ItchyKneeSon]

Sufjan Stevens opening music! YES!

[@MMusic91]

that was so badass when they were standing on top of that building! Staged, but badass!

[@1337million]

lol, when he made it there, they had managed to climb to almost the top of the building xD

[@bigsmerdo]

that sufjan stevens at the start lol

[@JakeyyBoiProductions]

@cluba91 not true, its just a to b, coz back there is a different path, due to drops from 1-2 storie buildings

[@whoopdeedoodude]

Parkour is hella awesome, so is Peugeot 207

[@Divergence]

On this day James May earned his Captain slow title.

[@Sp3llmen]

Car got beat! I love how he felt like he won and they were already on top of the building. if i was one of the runners id yell down to him "Lets see ur car do THIS!"

[@a2ment]

What season were the one with all Mays Challenges?

[@baldychops]

What on earth is the music from about 5:36 onwards??? Someone help please!!!!!

[@Andinov02]

Nope, the hardest part is definately keeping all those mixed up parkour emotions bottled up inside for so long before finally coming to the realization that it's who are and admitting to all your friends, family and girlfriend at the time that ... you like parkour. Then probably the second hardest thing is the first night you and your parkour partner decide to go 'all the way' and 'backflip' all night. And then ... I'd say it's probably the landing-on-your-head thing you mentioned is next.

[@madmicas7050]

cameramen who run ahead of the free runners and get into the best photo opportunities WIN

[@Ferg2jz]

WOW! the one in white was awesome with his flips and stuff :p amazing!

[@RazrHack]

"It's got an Ih-Pod connector"

[@doctormusic78]

the fall-n-roll jump in the mall seems HIGH :D

[@wrestlerflyer]

the traceurs or free runner i thing are: daniel ilabaca and kirby (the lastone take part in jump to britain or jump to london i don remember very well)

[@Nine_is_God]

"I leave the house every day." The first thing you went into detail about.

[@skodia]

dang...that is sick at the end on that tower

[@pkLipe]

Only the Citroen can beat Traceurs because it's cars can transform into free-running break dancing robots.

[@lvk96]

i love the ending

[@brandonmartin-moore5302]

Does anyone have the music playlist for this video?

[@123Steaky]

@cluba91 Parkour is also B to A, which means don't go somewhere if you cannot get back to where you started from there just as quickly.

[@vladoran]

@DJCroisades They were doing both, you cannot seperate Free-running from Parkour, because it is just the addition of free-styling such as flips to Parkour, however, Parkour is seperate from Free-running.

[@Mcais2Fresh]

The ending is beast...

[@Nine_is_God]

To be classified as a nerd, you'll need the essential basis: a pocket protector, plastic glasses with white tape holding them together, pants pulled up to your pectoral muscles that lave 4 inches open at the bottom, and slicked back hair.

[@Domiluk25]

just sittin on the liver building

[@Bapewatch01]

i got a question, i practise pk but is it wrong to jump over cars? i havent done it but in town i always have to move around the parked cars.. any traceurs got ideas?

[@wigglos]

it's a different discipline... it's like saying jogging and track running are the same... pk is about getting from A to B the quickest and most effective way, whereas fr is more about the acrobatic movements using an urban environment.

[@Jakeyboy93]

them un-tucked gainers look so more stylish and professional :) @5:24

[@0wallaby0]

Ahh Daniel Ilabaca looks well young in this clip! Weird to think I didn't know who he was when I saw this episode when it first aired.

[@fisknylle]

running full speed and jumping around for 5 miles and not even breaking a sweat. this parkour thing must be the bees knees.

[@minlos909]

@ItBeMe321 no it doesnt, iv been training 7 months and im allready doing that stuff

[@SerasXHarkonnen]

@raystrife234 or if he/she had some form of motorized transport and/or there were several stationed around the route they were taking. the latter is my guess.

[@shufflingn00bvic]

@Rarez2 yeah they can do some pretty wicked stuff. i do parkour and i can tell you that it defenitly aint fun if u screw up the roll part, cause thats where, it feels for me, takes off most of the G-force from the jump

[@azarel7]

That parkour guy in the white shirt is a beast...wow!

[@CalinNP]

top gear guys are always original...

[@TheCarArchives96]

the engine on the 2007-present Peugeot 207 Engine 1.4 L (70 hp) 1.4 L (90 hp) 1.4 L VTI (95 hp) 1.6 L Sport (120 hp) 1.6 L GT (150 hp) 1.6 L HDi (90/110 hp) 1.6 L Turbo (175 hp)

[@f4z3]

2:10 that's a dive.... but where's the pool??? :P nice vid ;)

[@gunjafor]

Casual handstand on top of a building

[@BelialsGenuflect]

I don't watch that now but I used to watch that when I was a kid. lol

[@rayshellyohansen4196]

John Kerr. If you go to IMDB and look up the episode (8.7) he's listed in the cast.
