Drake's Wish: A Parkour Story | Parkour Generations

In the summer of 2008 a young man called Drake, having recovered from operations resulting from Synovial Sarcoma, had his wish granted by the Make A Wish Foundation of travelling to the UK and learning the discipline from Parkour Generations.
This short video gives a glimpse into the week he spent with Forrest and at the Parkour Generations Academy in London.
