Yet another example of 'Freestyle Parkour' (French words - not sure how to spell - anyone heard of the documentary 'Jump Britain'?).
I'm not sure if everywhere else is like the seaside town where I live (Bournemouth / Poole) but there's been an increase in kids trying to do this sort of thing, albeit very badly. This usually involves running in front of people and then jumping on and off 4-foot high walls.
I was on a bus one day and saw two kids trying to copy this sort of thing and one of them tripped up when trying to vault a railing. It looked painful but he seemed ok (from what I could tell anyways, I was too busy laughing as the bus drove past) I bet hospital emergency rooms hate these guys. At least the guy in the vid's very good at it, though I bet the outtakes might be kinda nasty!
