parkour is a worldwide phenomonon, there has only been one death that I have heard of. Those folks get intiamtely familiar with exactly what they can and can't do safely, and they are simply amazing to watch.

Oh, I admire the stuff. Been watching it on YouTube. It's a young man's game. You get brittle as you get older. Probably not a lot of sixty- or seventy-year-old folks doing it.

If you have the training and practice, sure, the risk is minimal. Then again, some of the vids I've seen with the real experts show them getting up close and personal with immovable objects, so it's definitely riskier than tai chi in the park ...
