I love how impressed Jason is with himself, like he couldn't believe that he was actually doing it.

[@sabotage9926]

Jason has a parkour instinct

[@drpibisback7680]

I get that, I also always assume the rogues are going to fail dramatically at whatever they're trying.

[@nodeloliver6201]

I think we all deserve one of those little moments.

[@jamesroach709]

Jason just needs to go ahead and sign up for regular classes. He is a natural.

[@Sheridantank]

It's like a instinct type thing. A "full send" personality. There's something different in some people that they can't do back flips because the mental block. Jason definitely has less of whatever that is. Risk aversion? But not quite. Someone has to have a word for it.

[@benjaminotalora363]

Between this and him catching a knife that one video I'm convinced Jason could easily do full ninja training loll

[@wugadawoo]

@@Sheridantank I'm going to have to steal the phrase full send personality. So good. For the barrier that you were talking about, best I can describe it is an incremental approach. Some things benefit from that style. Backflips do not

[@clintonleonard5187]

I mean, this is par for the course for physical videos, any long time fan knows that. Jason is at least competent, while Brian struggles.

[@nixiestarlight158]

@@clintonleonard5187 Even though by the final level, Jason STILL didn't listen to what he was told about keeping his feet together. The guys teaching them just seemed to give up trying to fix his error, and instead just told him he's doing amazingly. He STILL flailed his legs around when he did every jump, and STILL he was kicking one foot off the ground, then the other, and doesn't tuck his feet and legs closer together until at LEAST halfway through the jump/spin. The people in the comments saying Jason is something like a parkour savant need to actually watch the video, and pay attention to how much Jason is doing WRONG, while Brian does WAY better at learning the proper way to do the technique! The only real issue Brian has in situations like these is he loses confidence in himself WAY too easily! Like, he gets the technique down, but then when he goes to attempt it after that, most of the time, he tells himself he can't do it and he lost it....which makes his technique suffer, and throws all he just learned out the window!

[@katbairwell]

Dmitri is such a good teacher, even though I am literally bedbound at home, and need a wheelchair out and about, I could still really visualise what he was asking them to do! I also really appreciated his ability to mimic Brian and Jason's attempts, so that he could better show them what they needed to amend - you have to be really good at something to be able to do it wrong on purpose! I hope we get to see more episodes at Lache occasionally, just because we're over 40 doesn't mean we are over the hill (well, I mean, I am - see above, but the guys here aren't)

[@tdoyr2119]

If it isn’t too much to ask, could you tell us why you are bedbound? I’m just curious.

@@tdoyr2119 straight up, this kind of curiosity is a huge pain for disabled people. My wife can't go outside without some yahoo asking about her medical history. If you need to know, they'll tell you.

[@katbairwell]

@@CultureStress Thank you so much for saying this. I am so sorry your poor wife has to go through this all the time, I hope it doesn't cause her extra anxiety about leaving the house.

[@paladonis]

Also, he was doing a lotta flips and no flops. 😋

[@pyrokinetikrlz]

I think Jason is the one who has been practising Parkour daily all these 3 years

[@Lemmyywinkz]

How is Brian not afraid of swallowing fire/knives and breaking cinderblocks over his head, but falling 1 foot into a padded mat is where he draws the line? lol

[@ashoulle8953]

Falling is pretty scary tho lol

[@IceMetalPunk]

Because he knows how to do those things safely and why they're safe; he doesn't know how not to break his neck 😂

[@pandoratheclay]

Ah yes my favorite skill, safely breaking my neck

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, Jason is a parkour prodigy change my mind.

[@DeliveryMcGee]

Brian's bails on stage 5 freaked me out, that's a good way to break your wrists. Don't ever try to catch yourself with your hands when falling, roll onto your shoulder.

[@HyoudenKyou]

the last thing we need is a Jason, that not only is a master with nunchucks, but also of parkour. the world should fear.

[@Zelmel]

I really continue to love how much better Jason seems to be at this than Brian from the get-go. Happy to see both doing well on it, but I just feel like Jason's the underdog with the surprise natural talent for this.

[@grantmata5438]

That was one of the best openings I've seen in a long time

[@risro.O]

that dude is a great spotter!

[@Chronos5618]

Honestly, I think this is more an episode on how to teach effectively, rather than to performing a specific parkour move. These guys are masters at communicating, building confidence, spotting mistakes and explaining/demonstrating how to improve, so that even at home I can mental visualise the movements really well. Great video!

[@damionlee7658]

17:21 - this is where an advert came in, for Audible, with the audio book suggestion "The Buddah and the Badass", an I thought that timing was perfect! Teaching is a great skill, and these pair are great teachers.

[@capdoingthings752]

So they're definitely training a bunch of super-assasin manchurian cantidates, right? I mean knife throwing, improvised weapons, message coding, parkour. They're gunna release a video one day and then we're all gunna be under control of dresspants robot man

[@ctusiard9755]

Hey, man, a modern rogue needs all this knowledge!

[@Hehfg]

@@ctusiard9755 yeah they're just modern rogues, parkour, martial arts, homemade weapons, beverages. All you need.

[@b.aleman8401]

Brian at the beginning: Wow. Brian at every other part: Nope.

[@ComradYeltsin]

Watching you guys just acting like full-on adult children makes me so happy, Brian jumping for joy when he lands something is just precious

[@CalicoJo1312]

need more parkour. I'm loving it.

[@obsidianmoon13]

Next week: How to make a homemade neck brace!

[@Tunkkis]

Huh, I wouldn't've expected Jason to be the more limber and athletic of the two.

[@simpleChoas33]

Between the two of them, they have the same amount of bodily awareness and skill. However Brian has pushed all of his into his hands and mouth for his magic act.

[@ikitclaw7146]

@@simpleChoas33 yeh Brian definately has the hands on dexterity and the gift of charisma and flame proof mouth, and if you look back at earlier episodes, Jason seems more physically fit now than ever before.

[@tyjytjafdf689]

Brian also just thinks too much. He tries to remember every single detail of the trick and consciously perform them in order, but just can't do it without being overwhelmed by the speed everything happens at. Jason focuses on a single thing at once and goes with muscle memory and flow on everything else (eg. he struggles to keep his feet in whenever he has to include something new to the movement), which seems to pay off when you don't have thousands of hours of practice like the coaches do. I think part of it has to do with how magic tricks are performed as a routine in steps, and Brian, having thousands of hours of that type of practice behind him, can't just snap off from it for a couple of hours.

[@reggiep75]

The 'mental mechanics' of it is largely what trips people up as people need contoured into accepting things that feel wrong but are exactly what is needed for the movement and inertia. I remember parkouring off the corners of tables when I was computer training in the 90's, without really knowing what I was doing, and all cos I had way too much energy.

[@thegreatestpepe]

It's wild to me how naturally gifted Jason is at this stuff. I bet if he stuck to it and practiced he could be really good.

[@ctusiard9755]

It breaks my heart that Brian couldn't do it, he was so close. It really looks easier that I imagine it actually is. Kudos to Eric and Dimitri for being good teachers.

[@mobilegameshortz3324]

Jason saying 4 things poped is the most real thing i have ever herd

[@gamingwiththedevils5461]

Alternate title:two old man trying to break their bones .😂😂

[@wildmtnmonkey3682]

It's awesome to see the strengths and weaknesses between the two Rogues; Brian got the rolling almost instantly in the other epp. while he struggled with the 360. Murphy was the opposite.

[@Heinzpeteromfg]

0:35 I knew it was fake, he isn't wearing Flip-flops.

[@KarthikeyaBetha]

With some more muscle Jason gonna look like a modern Viking

[@thedullohanvids]

I love the skit at the start saying brain had been practicing and Jason just forgot about it then jason does better at it. lol

[@BlockTechGold]

I really want to start doing some parkour/free running as a fitness regimen

[@FinBrennan]

These guys need to become regulars like Trever and Anthony imo

[@Ryno6465]

I love how the spotting is basically just teaching a kid to ride a bike. You hold on to them until you just let go and they keep going on their own.

[@eg8568]

Long hair guy is genuinely one of the best teachers / instructors I've ever seen, free running or otherwise.

[@FusionDeveloper]

Level 2: that's how I do a cartwheel... ... I keep my feet low... Really low... Technically not a cartwheel. It's because I'm afraid of landing on my head or on my back. However I think if I was with them training I would not be afraid, because they can keep you from dying.

I _kinda_ got what I asked for last episode with that opening... but man, I was really hoping to see it happen, like for real. Brian emerging from a cocoon of doubt and leaping beyond his earthly bonds... alas. And then there's Jason's just like, "Pssh, I did _not_ just do that perfectly on the first try. Whaaat!? Nah!"
