Pure function, no wasted movement.

[@dannyparker3251]

Managed to do sick parkour stunts with headphones on --- Achievement unlocked

[@papillon465]

dude, how does he do that??

[@gerardcapton7531]

yes finally! a person that's dose parkour instead of flip after flip. we know you can flip but why not do them over again !! but this guy is Insane 👍👍

[@ryantristani5091]

I know right!

[@rammedupfristx1845]

Yeah finally real PARKOUR

[@JCarinus]

So refreshing to see a video without flips

[@lunisPk]

You should see 2024😂

[@loadofprawns76]

10 years later this is still amazing

[@dimichevtro1traceur]

Your video is awesome you present the real parkour . I wish I could move like you

[@polynesianpride100]

great camera shots, great obstacles, great moves, great view. GREAT PARKOUR.

[@jessepadgett3503]

Revisiting this video after many years! It’s still absolutely amazing

[@surobakianinpo]

I love the moment at 1:08, some free-runner would vault the tall green fence just to show of his skills, yet real traceur chooses the easiest and most efficient path. this is parkour!

[@pinhead42]

What about the arm jump at 2:35? That wasn’t at all necessary, he’s a disgrace to the parkour community.

[@existentialchaos8]

Oh yes, definitely!

[@zaronblanco]

Finally someone who knows what parkour is

[@gamma3563]

why cuz theres no flips xD

[@ryantristani5091]

+Bonnie The Bunny You sound like an 8 year old...smh

[@gamma3563]

+Bonnie The Bunny you know its was ten months ago it hasnt even been a full year and to forget your age that fast is actually quite annoying to me about that and btw since it hasnt been a full yr since the comment you should still be nine so srry to be a little rude but i dont like how you saying cringe and acting like you totally aged so fast

[@gamma3563]

+Bonnie The Bunny wait so you were nine and after not even a yr your twelve? how does that even make sense?

[@gamma3563]

+Bonnie The Bunny last thing but do or say whatever you want its not my choice

[@sahram_ningen_]

His moves are flawless

[@jamesatherton6231]

His flow is incredible.

[@nateroybal5875]

I seriously want to be able to do this without cops or crowds or cars or any other disturbances lol

[@sebastianvanrooyen3859]

Nice way to show parkour aint only about flips

[@shTree]

Parkour ain't about flips. At all.

[@danceartist8203]

Freerunning is about creativity (meaning flips etc), parkour is about efficiency and speed (so no flashy flips).

[@jairflores17]

first guy i look what do parkour truelly, you presente the real parkour, what's the finally of do train, the movements, all togheder, and fluency... beautiful... i'll can present this video to the people don't know wha'ts parkour. thank you for do this videos where we can see our future, tha's my dream, i'll be so, i'll can go so.

[@manofsteelwool]

This kid is insanely impressive. His sprints are spaced out/timed perfectly, his hand and foot placement is impeccable, and he practically glides through whatever course he's on. Efficiency in its purest form. He's definitely my new favorite traceur on youtube.

[@DashieDasher]

I only want to know one thing... how does his earbud stay in while he's doing all of this jumping and running, I can barely jog before mine starts to fall out.

[@TheLaXandro]

glue

[@anoniemanoniem7927]

TheLaXandro WAHAHHAHHHAHAHAHAHHAHA CAN'T BREATHE

[@sebastianmackay5657]

Buy better ones.

[@tom-wyatt2982]

there seceretly attached to his inner head so he can blow peoples minds

[@211darthreven443]

0:50 omg that was ac3 style!

[@Ewillum]

ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL WORK!!! 😍🤩 I never get bored of watching the "Parkour Literally" series! It gives me parkour fever, even in 2024!

[@existentialchaos8]

Yes finally! After watching so many "parkour" videos on KZbin, I feel like the purpose of parkour is forgotten. But finally someone who understands!!!

[@AttackableGamingHD]

OMG what city is that!? Wish i had places like that do do some stuff..

[@caleblayne6329]

Zombie survivalist right here

[@rammedupfristx1845]

Dying light right

[@SquapPonE]

Beautiful parkour, beautiful spots, beautiful musics. Thanks guys!

[@TimothyGondola]

This video is still inspiring me to this day...

[@MegaGamingBean]

I can parkour its a way i run away from my mum

[@dmyers9000]

And he does it all in swooshy pants

[@DrLadyfingersMD]

Out of all the parkour videos I've watched, these are by far the best edited, most smooth, best performed, and overall awesomest of them all

[@nisher15]

I dont know why people could dislike this. Its pure Parkour. I guess they think that Parkour mean freerunning..

[@olsonarts]

4:09 I thought you grabbed onto nothing

[@Zacho789]

Real traceurs can grab onto nothing.

[@kristopherdonnelly5885]

Zacho789 It's an advanced technique. Probably impossible if you're american.

[@hattyhattington1385]

how long did it take before this amount of skill 10 15 years!?

[@ThisIsCrazedGaming]

Well mr hatty, I'm sure he didn't go jumping from block to block, but this kind of skill is about 1-3 years.

[@hattyhattington1385]

CrazedGaming ha ok :D

[@christianedwards2774]

+HATTY HATTINGTON Make no mistake guys, flow like this take years to master.

[@einefalafelrolleveganbitte]

+Christian Edwards it won't take you years but time practicing it, if you got nothing else to do you can get it in half a year

[@christianedwards2774]

El Pinguruh There's a reason why David Belle had been training at least 15 years until he ventured near larger jumps and movements. Your musculoskeletal system and bone density takes years to adjust. Could you do this in a gym? Probably yes. Could your body cope outside of a gym. No.

[@Brahinem]

this guy is one of the best traceurs or Parkour practitionners i have known. and i mean PARKOUR PARKOUR not whatever comes on mind to be put in youtube keep it up le vietnamien train safe

[@jalag1996]

This is one of the most awesome parkour:ers i´ve ever seen, literally

[@deformedfrog1]

Same, I live in the San Fernando valley in Los Angeles. The San Fernando valley is almost completely just housing. Thats why whenever I go places, I make sure to make a parkour vacation out of it.

[@FILMSHIFT]

THANK YOU YOUR 1 OF THE ONLY PEOPLE ON KZbin THAT DOES PERFECT PARKOUR

[@SpankinMusic]

Beautiful soundtrack. The expression in edit you executed brilliantly.

[@taylorsteele1078]

Thats pure Parkour, great flow. Awesome video, i love to see vids that take Parkour back to its roots

[@Zyvo2]

Haha, the part where he uses all fours to dash under the branch. Type in Running on all Fours into the search bar to see crazy people. BTW this guy, I've seen the video many times, and it's one of the best parkour runs on youtube.

[@anhilliator1]

A true parkour artist sees paths everywhere, such as this man here.

[@CJ12496]

i dont know whats more impressive, the parkour or the fact that his ear phones stayed in the entire time

[@halofan7007]

Geez, I wish I could head to places with a lot of jumps, vaults, and other such things. That would make my day. :)

[@beaconstrips]

finally someone who really understands the concept of parkour :D

[@inrflw3970]

Fluid Flowy Efficient Pure joy mate

[@BlacksVideos]

This is one of the best freerunning video i've ever seen.

[@telltellyn]

This (and part 1) are without a doubt the best parkour videos on the internet. Yeah that's a bit presumptuous, but I haven't seen any other even remotely close to this. Pure parkour, great music (and self made!), speed, efficiency... everything movement is clean, precise and you never slow down. And what other video flows like this one does? This video is parkour incarnate. =P

[@bobgoboom5]

this little video is a shot of pure inspiration to do parkour.

[@Claybird121]

God, thank you so much for making a video of actual parkour. This is beautiful and the music is great. Thanks for the lack of "free-running".

[@Jolly0915]

It's really cool watching all these people going about their day; while oblivious to the ninja right next to them.

[@Mino35855]

Still representing, one of the best videos, the other best videos are parkour literally 1,3,4,5 😂

[@ScaleParasitoid]

It seems like it's really a daily routine and he's just showing us his path

[@meappeam6917]

you are awesome!

[@KateLSx]

this is still my favorite parkour video

[@MrBurgieboy]

This is good to see, every runner I know (including myself) center a lot around tricks and I like what youre doing bro

[@ZebbeCali]

marseilles is SO well made. I didn't see a fast food joint or nothing! All the stone and cement, yet it blends with nature so well.

[@afran17]

last song was really dope, nice parkour, amazing flow

[@Rahmael]

naiim your videos are a big inspiration for me and quentin a awesome traceur. this is true parkour. now i prepare myself to run one day through my entire city like this.

[@vichoquinteros]

this guy is so good that doesnt need make flips to show that he know what he does.. and he does it good! thumbs up!

[@flaccidnipple]

best true parkour vid on youtube along with his 2 other ones

[@robertej09]

I love how this guy incorporates his whole body into movement. He could be doing a jump but then could use his hands to quickly transition into a dismount. I love how he never stops moving. Even in climbing. He doesn't stop moving. He defenitely has some explosive arms I tell ya that. Awesome parkour. Agreed?

[@shane2roddy]

love how smooth the camra is when it changes angle great parkour too well done sir :)

[@ezehhandscadzi7075]

I'm a parkourist, I'm 13 I really like it! It's something you have to be in shape for, sick vid

[@pumpapaj8977]

Information: A "parkourist" is called a traceur. Just so you know :)

[@pumpapaj8977]

And btw im 13 too!

[@MRcoldwindwins]

I am 45 and i do parkour since i was 13... All i can tell you guys is to never do something you think or know you cant do even if someone else tells you can if u are not sure don't do it... Training everyday is important and of course psychal condition you have to do sit up and stuff like that every 2 days about 30 mins so you stay in shape. Never stop if someone laugh which happened to me when i started ignore them in 5 years they will have they mouth wide open and say how is he doing that. I drink, Smoked ciggs and weed alot i stoped with ciggs and alchohol along while i was training and i can say never smoke ciggs and drink since that will harm ur condition alot... Pot more less you can do it with your friends once a week but don't over do it. Eat healthy food a perfect breakfest would be : 4 Eggs, chicken meat but without fat only cooked about 300g and some salad and that everyday and in a year you will a machine trust me :) I like to help people with some tips and i hope you follow this if u need any more info write me in PM and ill gladly answer you :) Don't mind the fact i like to game since its something i did all my life. :D Last thing if you don't love parkor and you only do it for someone else to say heyy that awesome don't do it. Parkour represents freedom nobody can build a wall for us and say you can't cross it... we will always find a way to cross it and don't worry if u hurt yourself don't stop unless its something really bad since who gives up will never succes in life which i had to learn the hard way while you don't have to. Never give up and always keep going foward no matter what happens. I live in Bosnia where there are not alot of places for Parkour but i found mine and after years and years after i found a job now i travel the world and do parkour with friends and my brother and i can say my life is complete. Parkour is just good for you and remeber it's not importat if someone tells you something about it and i don't think i will change your life with this but maybe i will inspire you to go and do parkour and take it seriously and love it like i do. Love parkour and never overdo yourself... + Don't try the freerun shit i call it shit since it's for show only and to show other people some tricks and thats really dangerous... I once did a 4x flip and broke my back... and then i found out thats not what parkour is about... so i broke my leg jumping over a 8 meters wall and i went to the hospital and they fixed it after 5 months i couldnt dare to jump over it again but i finaly did it and i did it right this time and i was so happy about it i told myself you have a good life and live it untill the death and then say "Sigh i had a fully completed life" Just be happy everyone who reads this don't let anyone affect how you think or what you belive... you are everything you are yourself and be who you want to be. Parkour was something my life wouldn't be like this without it and i love it. I stoped alot of time do it because of personal things but all the time i see these kind of things on youtube i tell myself "Don't Stop what you love and you think is important to you" And i start from over again and belive me i do parkour every day or 2 since 1995 and i am really happy i did it and will do it 20 more years and i will teach alot of people how to do parkour as same as i did to you. Maybe i wrote too much but parkour and a litle thing you can't tell alot of it. :) Parkour is freedom, parkour is lifestyle, parkour is the best thing that ever happened in my life. have to mention i was a hippy when i started and today on i hate the world and govurment and they tryed to jail me more times than you can imagine for breaking something or trepeasing but don't let that affect you. You have your freedom and use it. "Don't Just go to school, find a job, girl, get a kid, work more and die thats not life thats something the world want's you to do and then you are not free" by Coldwind

[@matthewgill8255]

***** Hey man that is one cool story! I've only recently started doing parkour, or rather, I'm more just at the stage of training myself up so that I can do it soon (ie learning how to roll, running to increase endurance, doing basic exercises to get in shape and watching vidoes like this to see how its done!) but yeah I find that really helpful, I don't know anybody else who does it and there are no groups who do it to my knowledge so I am a little on my own here, but yeah, I'm looking forwards to it!

[@oomg8370]

Matthew Gill I'm doing the same man I started like 4 days ago doing rolls

[@TheInvisibleTribe]

Beautiful! love these series man! they are amazing =)

[@PwnedLolz1]

I'm jealous of the spots he does parkour in.

[@Bierdieter]

ich finde es sollte mehr so welcher videos geben auf yt weil: hammer geile quali, der typ ist schnell und super gut

[@skyfire1129]

This is very beautiful. You're movements are very clean! And you're climb-ups are so fast. You must be really strong, great video!

[@stevenmaynard6640]

Damn man. I dont think ever seen anyone flow that smooth

[@alyssapadayhag]

This is just so amazing! Parkour is such an interesting thing to look at

[@Blu_f0x88]

wow with flow like this, who could dislike this video!!! This is amazing!!

[@janpietzoon]

Some really clean parkour, good job man!

[@IsaiahParkour]

your parkour is very traditional, probably the best I've ever seen to be honest XD

[@thelooker28]

I would like to let you know, that you serve as a great example for Parkour. And this video gives me a lot of ideas for things I'd like to try. Thank you for the videos, and keep up the awesome work.

[@woodyify1]

i love your huge runs! where i live theres nothing to FREAKING use!

[@peterg2065]

I have 3 years of parkour experience and this is fantastic

[@TheParkour237]

Very nice, so fast and very fluid. You're awesome you made me finally decide to make a KZbin account so that i could like this and post some of my own vids.

[@Prieget]

Wow this is the purest I've seen, trully the most efficient way

[@slimthiccums5496]

i can watch this 24/7 7 days a week

[@Mrparkourplaya]

great job no hesitation at all exactly what you need to be a pro

[@JIeBKA]

You are the first guy whom I subscribed for since I have an account here (about 3 years)!

[@ysl1352]

this video show pure parkour

[@Sc0lie]

As impressive as this is I think its just as amazing that his headphones stay in his ears.

[@_JAKL]

Loving the camera angles!

[@GregTom2]

Merci! Enfin un vidéo original et artistique où l'on essaie pas simplement de nous faire avaler les stéréotypes de sports «extrèmes» habituels, à voir, la musique rap et les lentiles «fish eye». Vraiment j'adore. Tu est vraiment très bon, mais être bon n'est pas suffisant, tu te déplace avec une grâce féline, et c'est ça qu'il faut au parkour! J'aime le passage à 3:55 particulièrement.

[@thepurpleplatypus1]

im a skater and parkour's so much like skating, just using the world around you and being creative and innovative, its an art. we dont need a stupid hoop and court, or bat and ball and bases and an open feild. we just go. thats an art.

[@cobrules22]

he has the best flow ive ever seen, and incredible stamina

[@Pedobearcrap911]

This should have more views this is sick!

[@gnou7]

toujours super fluide, rapide, efficace. très bonne vidéo, merci :)

[@mrsmusicaddict4evr]

I absolutely love the music and mind i add you are amazing! I need someone to teach me how to do parkour

[@quwex_]

Awesome video, love it.

[@N0DramaLlama]

Nice flow man :D great vid :)

[@geek183]

wow, this guys could get away with anything. such a fluent style!

[@zenoist2]

i saw this on recommended on the right of youtube. i do watch them sometimes where all these alien videos etc pop up this videos pretty cool and well put together. a bit different anyway. Nice.

[@MriDuffy]

You + Assassin's creeds robes = Badass.

[@RJassassin28]

Beautiful Place = Beautiful Parkour :)

[@Lolcats]

Just Another Morning In The Life Of I1consolable

[@wmfoi]

In my opinion, in the Top 3 Parkour videos, if not the first.

[@sstfreek]

I just realized that I can do almost everything he does except his awesome precision jumps! I need to work on that :P

[@MikeDaCoolest877]

Excellent. Just excellent. Much more interesting to watch, even beautiful in its own way, than most of the stuff out there. I prefer movement parkour to freerunning so maybe that's why. In any case, great job guys.

[@cameronseaton3691]

I like they music sellection dude nice !!!!!

[@kristopherdonnelly5885]

He's that smooth. There's just never enough impact. That or they do, all the time, and they do a retake.

[@marcoblauw4557]

Just parkour, awesome!

[@GrumperGaming]

wonderfull spots and a insane flow
