It's kinda awkward when you see them trying to match Faith in appearance and then realize it's a guy, not sure why. But beyond that, that was pretty damn good, I can see that beyond shrugging off bullets with regenerating health and sliding down ropes with both hands, Mirror's Edge was actually pretty realistically accurate to parkour.
Wow! Why haven't I been parkouring all over town, too? I already know all the [I]sick moves[/I] from playing Mirror's Edge.
This is pretty sick, but all the distances/heights look a lot bigger than they actually are due to the wide angle lens :v:

-wipes hands on shirt- didn't realize that had happened to me until seeing your post.
I don't care about the jumps or running or roofs or whatever.

I'd let him be my mailman.

I would love to do this but I'm out of shape and live in a rural area and am afraid of heights.

I'm lazy too.
Man, I really need to play Mirror's Edge. I have it but never played it, I'm saving it for the Oculus Rift

Even still, he's on top of buildings. Buildings tend to be a certain very dangerous height and he's running along the edges of them.

Gosh darn this video made me reinstall ME.
This is something I'd love to be able to do but am legitimately frightened of trying. On the one hand it looks amazingly fun and is a quick, if legally shady, way to get around. On the other hand it only takes on misstep or miscalculation to change...well, everything.
Running from anybody would be fucking child's play with the ability to do shit like that.

If by legally shady you mean tresspassing all over the place, then yes. But it's still absolutely amazing.

[QUOTE=Eonart;42085624]Parkour looks really nice. I wish I could do it but one of my legs grew longer than the other, so I don't think I'll ever be able to do it without possibly losing my balance on a deadly ledge.[/QUOTE]
Are you me? My left femur is a full centimeter shorter than my right and I've always wanted to parkour.
That looks uncomfortable to do in those kind of pants.
[QUOTE=GeneralMoosen;42093527]That looks uncomfortable to do in those kind of pants.[/QUOTE]
Not really as uncomfortable as in most other kinds of pants. These don't limit you when moving, they're basically a comfy shell.
This would be so cool if you could watch it on the Oculus Rift
this is not the female from the game, that breaks immersion for me and my favorite part of mirrors edge was the hot asian chick whom ive developed a taste for through anime series i watch
is this guy a tranny? why is he dressed up as a girl. he must be a member here at the facepunch studios forums

Parkour looks cool and fun but I don't know if it's worth the risk.
[QUOTE=Desuh;42096614]Parkour looks cool and fun but I don't know if it's worth the risk.[/QUOTE]
It definitely is. The thing with it is that it's risky, but not dangerous. A lot of conditioning and practice go into Parkour, all in an effort to learn your body and its limitations, and from there, A) be safe and B) constantly improve yourself. It can't hurt to look up a local group and just start hanging out with them. Every traceur and community I've trained with have been the friendliest people I've ever met.

Wearing white pants and a black tank top isn't really exclusively girl clothing.
I wish I had testicles like him
for a guy who climbs on top of giant buildings he sure does spend a lot of time looking down

this looks like such a stupid and unneeded thing. And it never even really went to 60 either.
