Absurd Athleticism
Watch this Russian video for some incredible footage. It is sad to see such talent amidst such poverty. Hopefully, the market is efficient and Hollywood talent scouts are on their way.
Its not the best of the many parkour videos out there, some of the European stuff is amazing. Interesting how gymnastics in street environment can appeal so much to youngsters and become a philosophy in itself.
Firstly the word [khimia], clearly seen in the beginning, means: "a place with semi-jail regime" (it's a long story to tell...). Secondly, the guy looks like an ORDINARY member of a racketeer gang. Believe me or not MANY of them are capable of this kind of things after fighting the war in Chechnya... and MANY MORE (don't want to scare you, guys...)
Happily, me, personally, don't belong to that country any more! F... it !
wow, that's pretty damn impressive.
