When you think extreme sports, what comes to mind are things such as climbing, base jumping or skydiving. But these sports have safety measures to hopefully decrease the possibility of injury. In climbing you have rope, helmet, and harness, while in skydiving you have a parachute, and a trainer with you if you’re a beginner. Then there’s skateboarding, and most of them don’t even wear any protective gear.
One sport which may not come to mind is Parkour. This activity consists on running through the city via a straight route. That means climbing on the roofs of buildings, jumping over fences, or jumping from high ledges; whatever happens to be on the route that the participant chose. This sport also doesn’t have any safety measures besides athletic abilities.
Now, knowing how dangerous the combining of any of these may be. Behold, Parkour-boarding! That is exactly what the guy shown in the video below did! Take a look if you’ve got nerves of steel…
