[lillost]

I like how humble the girl are and how supportive the guys are. Good group of people. Two groups of skilled athletes just respecting each other. Sweet.

[Fuffuster]

"And then she did this!" **dab pose**

SAYS THE GUY WHO NARUTO RAN UP TO THE SPRINGBOARD

[nicolasfajardo]

Gymnasts: Im kind of scared

Also gymnasts: *Does all moves effortless*

[rapha]

So basically a bunch of people were panicking and this one guy said “oh maybe i can do all of that at the same time”
And that’s how parkour was invented

[robree]

The white girl look strong asf when she do the lache

[BATTIS]

This is like the difference between Jazz and Classical.

[naesmitty]

Ohh I see. Grey shirt guy only blinks when he is in his natural habitat.

[shadykazama]

Okay so like is it just me or do the parkour dudes seem like stray cats and the gymnasts seem like pretty refined house cats?

[novaquinn]

I like how the gymnasts smile while they're doing parkour. Its like another floor routine for them

[Zvox]

i like that the girl with the braids had a massive grin the entire time she was trying parkour moves

[Maaad-maaan]

The girls’ flip was pretty different. The guys always float when they jump, land, or roll. Gymnast go for hard, fast, powerful moves

[kvprxsk]

love how in the girls video they always say "that was good" or '"great job" and the equivalent for the boys is "nice" lol

[patricklynch]

I’m just gonna say, Jesse Danger is a sick af parkour instructor name.

[beepot]

It's a rare occasion where I enjoy everyone in a video lol.

[Keedy]

I loved the mutual respect that they all have for each other.

[LoneWombat]

“You fell off the building.”
“Oh darn.”
🤪🤣 such an athlete. 🤦‍♀️🤷‍♀️

[liv]

“Their arms are like behind, in the eagle position”
Me, an intellectual: Naruto position

[melodiouslyy]

Gymnasts: I’m kinda scared
Also gymnasts: *sticks landings effortlessly*
Me: is rushed to the hospital after the first try

[EscaVODS]

"I'm so scared."

**Does it flawlessly**

[emilyjanet]

You can really tell these guys are teachers. They've got such a calm but encouraging energy and they're so vigilant about making sure they're all safe while doing the skills. Super impressed.
