their speed and flow is remarkable... i wonder if any traceur can think that fast of what to do next... you can increase that by training, yes, but this is far too fast... its both inspiring and fascinating to watch them thanks for this... you sure had a good reason to leave UF
Haha after watching the first minute, I had to take a break to go and watch the Monkey Parkour video Visive made. For some reason, that had a stronger impact on me, but this is cool too; with more of an educational aspect to it. Props on that one mane!
its in their nature. its how they live, its how they survive. Humans have just evolved on from that... perhaps we as practitioners of parkour are simply going back to our roots, instead of learning something new great work naim! cant wait for the next episode
thank you for this video series..its awesome that you went through with making these as many people would think of something like this and not take the time to talk about/spread the word
Very nice idea and good work choosing and put all this images together! Loved it! I have watched some of this footage before because since I started training I watched it in order to improve myself! Tank you l'inconsolable for the things you have given to the parkour comunity and to simple traceurs that just like training like me! Can't wait to watch the oder tree videos. Take care! xxx - Cris PS: Nice songs brother! Some day I'll go to Marseille to train with you! ;)
Es alucinante la perfección que tienen algunos animales para desplazarse, lo tienen por instinto y genética, en cambio los seres humanos necesitamos un acondicionamiento increíble para acercarnos a esa perfección. No sé los demás, pero estar tan lejos de lograr esto y que haya tan pocas personas relativamente que quieran ser así de útiles... así de libres, me hace que siga queriendo formar parte de esta comunidad y hace que siga luchando por acercarme a esa perfección. Mucho amor, gente.
been trying to figure out the larger differences in their movements. i think the repeated movements in sequence (multiple jumps) can be completed so fast because they can reset their hand motion every time they land, hands come down too and then boom send them up to assist jumping immediately, try to move your hands like that without something to stop them on with each jump. i don't think you'll do it that fast, your hands will just wave up and down with counteracting forces. thanks for the vid
i think the point would be not thinking when your going that fast, just flow with your body leading and doing whatever it wants to do. i think thats why they do it so well
Je perds 70Kg en gardant ma force actuelle et peut être que je pourrai me rapprocher de leurs niveaux ! Merci Naïm pour cette vidéo vraiment trop cool.
well said... i wish i just could just let go of any other tought that comes in my mind while im training... the monkeys just keep their focus... unlike us they are limited in thinking but we cant clear our minds to do something fully 100% the mind keeps focusing on everything around us we just think and analyse too much without even knowing and in parkour i think training the mind is just the hardest thing
I forgot to actually say why i mentioned the tail, but it's for balance (not trying to patronise you as you probably already know) but thought it's worth pointing out.
but we share enough common geneology that we can move somewhat vaguely like them if we try really, REALLY hard. Some of the circus kids you see around are pretty nimble with climbing. That said though, yeah the current human form is built for endurance running more than acrobatics or sprinting.
The concept of parkour, the true philosophy seems to be creating your own flow based upon basics, it not whether you do flips or not, it's your flow your rhythm, each person defines their own concept it's not the concept that defines what and how each individual should flow. If someone want to add flips to their flow, or they don't want to. It doesn't matter because that's their flow. They aren't any less or any more of a parkourist, if they add flips or not.
Idk if you read much but The Power Of Now is a fantastic book that talks about controlling the mind. Be Here Now is also a great one to check out if your interested!
and dont shoot my point of veiw down. dont tell me im wrong. because im not. there is always possibility in everything. all it takes is faith, belief, and to actually do it, and progress, same with all things
actually, it is possible. like i always say: nothing is impossible, only mathematically improbable, and the distance is only limited by what the human mind can and will reach. yes i did come up with this so dont ask me where i got it from. so possible: yes. improbable: yes. impossible: no. just keep this in mind. i cant prove any, and everything. but its not impossible.
0_0 wow the monkeys can tic tac 0:59 ! and they use the blocking technique 5:00 /// AND they use the split step. ALSO they use wall run at 7:33 WOW it is inspired from monkeys definatly (i dont mean to sound like a mad scientist but did you know 80% of humans is made of apes (NO REPLY PLZ)
My point is that even if we start doing it in 10, 50 or 100 years, my guess is that it would be with either new superior supplements or some kind of bionic body enhancers. We cannot achieve the monkey's grace and power in movement in a natural way (by training) nor even if possible can we do it in one lifetime. We are just not built for that. That's what I was trying to explain.
It actually originates from African tribes observed by a Swiss general, after watching them move through dense forest he petitioned to have this skill taught to Swiss military. Or maybe it was France...I forget, it's around 25 years old
surely Naim is refering to the origin of movement itself and the similarities among other mammals abilities to traverse, parkour is just a fancy name we gave it, this thing is universal.
Humans are all too often living and thinking the future and past opposed to just concentrating on the present moment. If you can do that then you'll think just as quick as the monkeys bc there will be no fear clouding your judgment. Be Here Now my friend
Have to disagree there. To a certain extent you're right, but a chimp/ape/baboon etc has a tail. They can do loaaaaads of things we would find impossible and can do almost everything we find possible in parkour.
example: you send an engineer out to a mountain area. you tell him to build a working car that runs on water within the time of a month. could he do it? sure. will he? he could try. now send another to a lab with all the materials needed and more, and you give him other engineers to help. you give him a month. could he do it? you bet. recorces limit what you can do, yes. but think of it. the human mind ( and some help/ inspiration from god) is what got the parts to a usable stage.
i think also that you are never able to reach the level of the monkeys but it is inspirational because we as human beings have not the skillz the monkeys have but we can train and get better, not better than them but it doesn`t matter i think
That's not the point captain positive. I'm not saying humans aren't amazing, I'm just saying that what you see here is movement in its perfection. It's just that monkeys are monkeys. The fact that bboys do elbow-tracks and planches comes from them just trying new moves, just like in freerunning. For example take a basketball player's vertical jump: record is 60 inches or so I'm not sure and that's by someone who devoted his life to this. A monkey can jump several times its body length vertically

Very well put together. You should do squirrels for one of the episodes. They are our inspiration here in the states (maybe an occasional cat too).
Fantastic compilation, Naim! This is incredible footage of supremely adapted animals, and it's good to have it all collected in one place.
looks like we've lost some agilty in our evolution
Not at all
And a tail.
And what about the hair?
maybe we lost a bit of it in exchange for our minds being the one that is agile.
@@daniyil4843 ? 😂
Soo much flow. Can't wait to train with them sometime.

great work naim! cant wait for the next episode
And not a Single Flip. True parkour right there, they really understand the concept.
thank you for this video series..its awesome that you went through with making these as many people would think of something like this and not take the time to talk about/spread the word
i could watch this stuff all day. thank you for this:)

Take care! xxx

PS: Nice songs brother! Some day I'll go to Marseille to train with you! ;)
yes i totally agree, but they go so fast they dont even need to flip in their flow. its that good!

easily one of the coolest things ive ever seen . . . thank you man
You know who would have been the ultimate traceur? Tarzan.
Glad to see another video from you :). I wish i had the arms of a gibbon. been doing a lot of training in trees lately.
Wow impressionnant !!
On dirait qu'ils ont des ressorts sous les pattes! ^^

This video makes me smile. Nice one Naim!
i think the point would be not thinking when your going that fast, just flow with your body leading and doing whatever it wants to do. i think thats why they do it so well
Great video! Can you tell me what BBC and Nat'l Geo documentaries had all that urban footage? I'd love to check out the originals.
and they move with such fluidity. every jump, every step is unplanned, its natural for then
wow.. this really DID inspire me, alot!
Je perds 70Kg en gardant ma force actuelle et peut être que je pourrai me rapprocher de leurs niveaux ! Merci Naïm pour cette vidéo vraiment trop cool.
That was CLASS! Really really good! The only thing I'd recommend you is to remove the RESAMPLE in some clips! Thanks ;D
wow, so true. and i have some new things i want to try out as well now from this.
I loveeeeeee this vid L1consolable!! =D cant wait for 2!! =D the music is great too
Catleaps and kongs were awesome!
Thanks for uploading this =D its awesome
Love it, and love the music.
3:44 what is it doing getting its balance back?
you actually agreed. i never said WHEN it would be possible or HOW it would be. i just said it could. its all about perspective. think about it.
well said... i wish i just could just let go of any other tought that comes in my mind while im training... the monkeys just keep their focus... unlike us they are limited in thinking but we cant clear our minds to do something fully 100% the mind keeps focusing on everything around us
we just think and analyse too much without even knowing and in parkour i think training the mind is just the hardest thing
good to see someone who's actually using logic
I forgot to actually say why i mentioned the tail, but it's for balance (not trying to patronise you as you probably already know) but thought it's worth pointing out.
Incroyable!
Should, when that is exactly how we do it?
this is just pleasure to my eyes!
Yeah Best Traceur with True Parkour
So much inspiration
Can anyone tell me what music tracks were used in this video?
but we share enough common geneology that we can move somewhat vaguely like them if we try really, REALLY hard. Some of the circus kids you see around are pretty nimble with climbing.
That said though, yeah the current human form is built for endurance running more than acrobatics or sprinting.
2:04 woooow
Beautiful Naim! ^_~

super video !!!!
Trop enooorme !
Wow there are allot of things they're doing that are like really common Parkour tricks
Great!
Idk if you read much but The Power Of Now is a fantastic book that talks about controlling the mind. Be Here Now is also a great one to check out if your interested!
Cool
I saw this in science class once, it was fun
very nice
its this kind of spirit we human throw away ..
learning from the best =)
i really like the ending song...
0:55 epic climb up...
whats the song
I don't understand how the fuck they're capable of such amazing movement
and there is people that say, we cant learn nothing from animals.
precioso
You made me laugh so bad. :D Thank you sir!
and what about freeruning? :D
8:05 :O
wow!
and by "it's not about the mind" I strictly mean our topic, not movement itself.
They are maximizing their potential of a human...
and dont shoot my point of veiw down. dont tell me im wrong. because im not. there is always possibility in everything. all it takes is faith, belief, and to actually do it, and progress, same with all things
0.55 its un-real how human that looked!
climb, cat leap, precision...
actually, it is possible. like i always say: nothing is impossible, only mathematically improbable, and the distance is only limited by what the human mind can and will reach. yes i did come up with this so dont ask me where i got it from. so possible: yes. improbable: yes. impossible: no. just keep this in mind. i cant prove any, and everything. but its not impossible.
I wish i could jump like that!
0_0 wow the monkeys can tic tac 0:59 ! and they use the blocking technique 5:00 /// AND they use the split step. ALSO they use wall run at 7:33 WOW it is inspired from monkeys definatly (i dont mean to sound like a mad scientist but did you know 80% of humans is made of apes (NO REPLY PLZ)
and other 20%?
they simply reflect the true FREEDOM
valla nivelazo jaja
PARKOUR like a sir!
the real pros!
Beautiful
5:25 perfect ledge grab

I know, its suprises me too ._.
feel like a Prince of Persia :p
Planche et tout, aiiight
thats because its like walking to them =)

Train train train! you might grow a tail! =D
isn't fair, they have tails, we have ass :D Awesome work!
then you would be like goku! Does not transforming in a big and mad apple during the full moon worries you?
Dam evolution... give us back out tails! jeje
5:22 this is how we should do it guys :D
another point for animals: there's no UFF in their kingdom lol
jajajaj good video ;D
although if they did flips it would be the best flips ever eh.
0:57 that looks so human

we born to movement but we lost it in school
