If only people could still move like this ! What a dream that would be.

[@PhilyDee]

Haven't watched yet but thank you for making my morning... ... LOVED SO MUCH

[@olivernordin]

Very good as always Blane. I´ll watch it over 100 times when I´m too tired to train or when I need motivation.

[@DaniSampayo]

the cleaning of the movements, is fantastic, the vision, the technique, the force... amazing, i love this parkour. Very good work

[@TraceurCMann]

Wow. Even after 2 years of training I still find this video so amazing. Perhaps his "moves" aren't as flashy as other freerunners/ traceurs but if you look closely his precisions are crazy, his muscle ups are freaking fast, and his jump height is remarkable. That in my opinion is far more impressive than any flip or "trick" I've seen.

[@lauriejennifer]

I admire your diligence in training and thoroughly enjoy witnessing the results. Thanks for sharing!

[@FaomsAdventures]

261k views and no sound. this is pure parkour, pure feel to that discipline! thanks blane.

[@TheDayIsNotLost]

This guy was an inspiration to so many, including the new greats such as Phil Doyle! Respect!

[@Murphator]

Bro i really appreciate how you do strictly parkour and reflect the sanctity of movement that we all try to achieve. it's really great to see thank you

[@olive0drab0fad]

this is one of the most inspiring parkour videos out there

[@AfroPK]

I remember watching this the first time, it freaking blew my mind and now im coming back to watch his climb up technique. Blane just keeps on giving

[@CharlieBriggsUK]

Such a legend of a video, I keep coming back to this one. Nice one Chris.

[@glasgowparkourvideos]

that jump distance is just getting ridiculous. great to see a new video, very light and powerful movement. love it. grant

[@BalamPK]

Alltime is great see a video from you. You're one of the best Traceurs. Your great, keep jump it !!

[@DaerSanchez]

wooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooaaaa incredible control man!! Respect! Greetings From Mexico City

[@Denester]

you gotten hell stronger, and your runs are great, awesome control in all your movements! love those big precisions, climbups are fast as ever! keep the videos coming!

[@Linc3pk]

You are such an inspiration Greetings from Colombia

[@gesundePferde]

Wow. Your precision jumps are I think the best ones I´ve ever seen. And certainly among the most dared ones.

[@Crusty031]

Amazing strenght, balance and one of the best climbups I have ever seen! dam those are so freaking fast ! Train safe, peace !

[@T-Dogg121]

Man I hope you realise yourself how beautiful and natural your movement has become. You have always been skilled and strong but now your movement has become a lot less stiff and just incredibly fluid. This is my favourite video of yours, this is something new and brilliant. Peace, thank you for the inspiration :)

[@SoaringDisbelief]

dude your precisions are perfect! those were that most incredible part of this video, and thats saying something, because he whole thing was amazing.

[@lauriejennifer]

Originally had epic music. Then, copyright claims a few years later. I remember the original soundtrack. :(

[@FredSk8PrO]

Thanks for the downloadable link. Now I can watch it until I'm not amazed by it anymore, which I plan will happen when you release your next video. Truly exceptionnal.

[@bdruckus]

very impressive!!! good stuff, i appreciate the fact that you flow from spot to spot, you don't just do a trick and call it parkour.

[@faisalhalim]

Loved what you've done. 01:05 reminds me of all the time that I spent exploring the scaffoldings, as a kid, when some infrastructure work was being done around my apartment; though I could not do any of the cool things that you've done.

[@TraceurZeno]

What is so stiking about your latest video Blane, is how easy you conqueor these spanning obstacles. Which can lead the viewer into thinking these obstacles are smaller or closer in real life, when really the camera does not give these huge obstacles justice. Through taking the more difficult path comes true greatness, that what you are brother... True Greatness!! Zeno

[@Lucianogmotta92]

Such great memories this video brings me

[@gesundePferde]

Wow. Amazing. I especially like how easy it looks when you leap; get so much force behind it :o that really is parkour-art. also love that it is /only/ parkour.

[@Aleexr]

Really brilliant mate. Your a great role model for the parkour community. Thanks for the inspiration. Alex

[@dombower]

as always very inspiring. makes me want to head out and practice again. cheers

[@jonnyreh001]

That's really elegantly done work !!!!

[@bboyneedle]

Everyone stop complaining about the arbitrary differences between parkour and free running. Just remember it all originated from the same place! Blane, the vid was nice. Very clean and controlled. Keep training hard! :]

[@thraXn]

Your jumping power has grown to amazing measures. I've been reading your blog and it has been a great motivation for my training. Keep on training, nice work (as always).

[@peterpan187]

really clean and you improved your "sense and touch for the movements" so much which is really nice to see !

[@pkshae]

Good job Blane. I always enjoy watching your clips.

[@RichJ66]

You never cease to inspire me :)

[@Gemini373]

Amazing, strength, control, fluidity... it's all here!

[@RealDaveTheFreak]

The strength is just amazing, very powerful how Parkour should be.

[@Minh_vn]

[@kamikazemelon787]

your form is very clean and fluid, it's amazing to watch, you're also very good at scaling walls great video

[@MattMcKinley]

Great video Blane. I'm US, but a fellow traceur since 03. Been watching your progression, especially the muscle-ups. Awesome job man.

[@jacomodo]

muy buenas presiciones, muy inspirador e instructivo el video, me da ganas de trazar con solo verlo. saludos

[@MaddieNL]

Hello Blane, I really like this video as it shows various movements, and it shows you're able to do them all. Flow, Power, Control, very nice. It's great to see that you still improve. Maddie

[@doubledi2]

it's perfect... Blane: I'm always been impressed your style, but this is best of ever you made.

[@JRTparkour]

so nice movements love it!! so clear just beutiful!!

[@Maxlnv]

Молодца!!! Супер, как всегда! Просто мега офигенный уровень! Я на тебя равняюсь!!!)

[@puersilens]

Your level of control is simply incredible. Everything looks so easy... your climbups and long precisions are completely effortless. I hope someday I get to have half the control you have. (When I first saw you jumping backwards I almost fell off my chair, then I realized you weren't actually jumping backwards... haha)

[@StyxGerrard]

Real Parkour, flawless technique! Like it

[@WOLVESVIDS]

WUUUUUUTTTT???u keep using these blazing tracks!...man i gotta give it up to ya in the UK and abroad for keepin REAL HIP HOP alive!!..

[@davidmar15]

impressive, normally I find pure parkour videos boring, but this one really liked 5 stars, favorate and subscribing

[@MavenMouse]

sticking parkour and parkour only... something that doesnt happen too often anymore. Good Job :D I don't see david belle do precisions as well as this guy does. 5 stars hands down.

[@Filipepk]

I love your videos. You are a great practitioner that I always try to mirror you. Only oque that I have is more time for the dedication because my work occupies a large part of my day. More congratulations again on this new videos that this beautiful. Movements perfect, climb up monsters rsrsrs

[@felipesolano9880]

Pulcro, hermoso e inspirador!!

[@mejso77]

Really awesome preciasion and his moves looking so naturally, good job 5* :D

[@trogdorfiend]

darn you blane! i was saving Gang Starr for MY parkour vid lol i love this song, i'm glad others enjoy their parkour with real hip-hop much respect, fool

[@FredSk8PrO]

Perfect. Absolutely perfect.

[@MrScellaneous]

I remember watching this 10 months ago. This video inspires me to try my hand at parkour. And it's still amazing how you didn't have to do any so-called "fancy" flipping. Mario still doesn't have shit on you xD.

[@PkFloydUk]

sick man, youve got some spring these days, pure control.

[@LOTRFreak993]

when you precision jump some of those far distances it doesn't even look like you are trying. Great work.

[@BjoernGelotte]

your videos are so impressive! they show me what is possible in a few years if i keep up training hard. i also like your blog. you are awesome :D

[@Obsidian1138]

Once again Blane, another superb video. The degree of control you have with your precisions is excellent. Are you going to the Trace gathering this year?

[@Cionn]

Regards to UK´s Parkour legend!

[@Helryth]

absolutely astonishing

[@Desobomber]

His fluidity is excellent, hes always on the move but its not like a sprint as it is like long bounds from object to object, i half expect him to like jump from object to object and then throw in a back flip of a drop on to a railing because i think he could do that with his flow. Great job dude! Keep at it!

[@gkgustav]

awesome. fastest wall climbs i've seen and very good precision jumps

[@rickyjay007]

Wicked! Another great vid from Blane!! Some of the stuff on there look insane but i know you train hard!!! Keep up the great training and keep the brilliant vids coming!

[@robbie211]

i want your muscle ups and precisions!!! bloody amazing.

[@SpasticLizard]

Good power, good flow, good control... Blane, you rock! XD

[@iugafc]

Really inpiring! Congratulations for your training and stuff,makes everyone who watch your video wanna train [sorry bad english]

[@jonboy700]

Yee-oooow! I actually like the lyrics as well in this vid. This is pretty inspiring.

[@nlytend1]

i find it amazing how the human mind works. before parkour, it would seem as though nobody had the ABILITY to perform the sport, since it was totally unheard-of. but after making up a sport, we quickly adapt, and get good at it. think about it, before soccer, no one could dribble a ball, before basket ball no one could do all the tricks we see on AND1but that doesn't mean that we, at the time were incapable of performing the tasks. we just needed time to learn it that's all.

[@Skeptinen]

Nice work! Your getting better and better, keep it up. Btw, I loved it: Gangstarr - Above the Clouds, that's classic, one of my favorite songs. 5/5*

[@FreestyleTraceur]

You make muscle ups look so damn effortless xD, your flow is just bank, keep it up

[@ShadoWSe3keR]

great as usual mate.I just loved it :) ....beast...

[@Gorsech]

Nice moves Blane. Good choice of music, Above the Clouds goes real well with the video.

[@dima29]

Awesome Flow! Awesome Balance! Keep it up!

[@Mucalytic]

Good stuff man! Nice to see you concentrating on flow and making little routes for yourself. Some ballsy precisions there too. The thing is, on a video these jumps look reasonable but I've been to these spots and those gaps are BIG. Respect!

[@AloneWithMemories]

I love your moves man. Beacause of you I started to doing that couple years ago ;P

[@SAMURALLI]

Amazing Vid!! I love your climb ups

[@shinobiBUNK]

I agree, kind of. I mean i was wondering where the flips were until i saw it said parkour, but flips are very good training. It teaches explosiveness, and a higher sense of coordination, so even if you do parkour, I recommend some free running to make parkour easier. And I also agree with martin that most people dont really understand but freerunning does have flips, they just don't understand parkour. Plus flips can scare your pursuer, saving you energy in the long run. Give and take.

[@MccRus]

your flowetry is so inspiring man. that was such a sick vid!!!!

[@nlytend1]

just to point out, it is amazing, the human mind that is.

[@AbdelAndSirMike]

Your arms must be very very strong. Great film, keep up the good work !

[@Choonzord]

I think one of the most important things in pk is getting used to your weight, to know how to leverage your body, how to fly, how to land. Blane is an amazingly refined traceur, simply remarkable, the amount of control he has.

[@fkumore]

uuu,great one blane, you are like a fuel for us..don`t stop ;)

[@jnallard]

always impressive to see your vids !!!

[@borisparkour]

yes!!! Always an inspiration Blane, can't wait to meet you at Trace Gathering :) Peace
