You can really tell these guys are teachers. They've got such a calm but encouraging energy and they're so vigilant about making sure they're all safe while doing the skills. Super impressed.
@@Edd_LShore I mean, they all failed in doing parkour here as well. They just thought they did it. But parkour takes a lot of effort just to get into the basics. They didn't do a single exercise properly, they did it the "gymnast" way, but that is vastly different to the "parkour" way. The main difference is that the parkour style allows you to chain moves into succession and maintain momentum, while the gymnast way gives you the appearance of full control, but with absolutely no momentum transfer. So basically they just did gymnastics but with parkour exercises. They never did actual parkour. - and indeed, if they took it outdoors to the real world, the differences would make themselves much more obvious to them. Indoors it's easy to get lulled into believing you're doing it well, when in fact you are completing the task but also at the same time you're doing it wrong.
They frequently said that the women were actually better than them at some of the moves which is a huge compliment because dudes dont admit that kind of stuff.
@Unknown Unknown The women were Gymnnast. So you know they're ACTUALLY trained not just for fun but for national or international competition. Although parkour is different
@@mysonandme8424 yeah ofc they're better that's what they do. maybe what they're trying to say is, somehow the women were like trained even with no background so the points that they have are; swinging, standing in their own two feet when landing, not wobbling around, etc. But yeah, different things but somehow they meet at a middle point. But yeah it's not a competition
yea it's unfortunate that this was constantly glanced over, as it is the most important element of parkour and none of them seemed to ever get it right. Always stiff landings that resulted in complete loss of all motion, and parkour without fluency of motion is just climbing. They could do a part two that only focuses on transitions between moves, in order to preserve momentum, because they all clearly struggled with it.
Daniel Kemnitz I think they’ll figure it out if they do some actual parkour for a short time. You can’t have those powerful landings without mats. It’ll destroy your ankles and knees. And if you don’t land, well you just wrecked your whole body. Also, you don’t do quick passes. Parkour is about persistence and stamina. They wear themselves out very quickly with these powerful movements. If they had to do a parkour race, they’d be exhausted in no time
@@Real_MisterSir That's because in gymnastics, it's all about the stick landing. A very different basic skill they learned early on so for them, landing that way is second nature. They don't have the luxury of rolling or moving freely after a landing since it would cost them tons of points and may lose medals/titles. I think if they've taken more lessons, the coaches would have done more to emphasize that as they would be moving onto real-world settings.
@@Maaad-maaan I think you bring up a good point about persistence and stamina. Gymnastics takes tons of stamina and power, but it's not the most cardio sport compared to say running, dancing, or figure skating. It seems like parkour with its emphasis on movement and motion would rely on conserving energy to last the distance. Gymnastics is a totally different sport in that respect.
I'm reading through all the comments and their replies. It's kind of upsetting how some people don't realize that the gymnasts actually did well for their first time doing parkour, and vice versa, the men did well in gymnastics. The moves they performed were not perfect, which is obvious enough. The gymnasts were stiff doing parkour because that's how they were trained. To stick the landing. The parkour instructors were loose in their landings because, you guessed it, they were instructed to be ready to move. It is hard to break habit.
They were amazing. I do dance so sometimes people ask me to show them something and to be honest: most people have no idea what their body is actually doing. All of them did great

Salaheddine Cherrak I don’t think you realize the amount of time these women have spent perfecting and mastering their motor control through gymnastics... They’re flawless because they have muscle memory.. not because they’re scared.
tbh its natural cause they probably teach a lot of people and like at any level of skill you can fall. So its like just a safety precaution plus its their first time learning it so chill
@@LarissaDawn yeah, it's a matter of safety. they all recognised how skillful the girls were, but it's essential to assure a student who does parkour for the first time is safe
@@LarissaDawn even in gymnastic competitions with professional gymnast with years of training have people spot for them but you're triggered here when they are learning parkour for the first time?
SAME THANK U I was like "man I'm 🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥰🌈" also I love how they seem to be so into teaching the movements and as I gymnast you just kind of do it so u can't tell in the other video the girls seen ti have kinda if a hard ~ time explaining bc same 🤭
Gymnastics Coach here - the landing is the first thing we teach little ones in gymnastics! so coaching that out of people is borderline impossible after they've been taught it all their lives! for example, I point my toes when I side-step in rugby, even though I haven't actually trained for years!
They are NOT similar. Seriously there’s so many differences like landing, transitions, exercises that they have to do, and many other things. Do not ever see them as “similar” cause they’re not. Please do actual research before stating a wrong opinion on a public website
Not equitable. Parkour is about adapting to variables and gymnastics is about rigid control. Of course the Parkour guys are not going to follow classic form easily, they weren't trained that way. I had the same thought about really top notch gymnasts-they will automatically point their toes and stick as rigid a landing as possible because after doing it that way so long with such high stakes it's muscle memory. They would struggle hard with Parkour. All kudos to these ladies, though, they did well.
It’s crazy how powerful the gymnast’s front flips landed. Can you imagine the destruction if they front flip kicked you in the head? Like a one hit kill.
@@Jojo-bg1re also, in parkour, you wanna keep going and even if you don't break a leg/ankle/foot, sticking a super stiff, hard landing would be really counter productive.
Can we just talk for a second about how these men were so supportive and protective of these women. Absolutely chivalrous to the tenth degree. Arms out, waiting to ensure their safety, I mean, that was so heartwarming. I truly think it was amazing to see. Both groups could experience new things in a completely safe environment. Men could be expressive and women could be dangerous in a safe environment. May all of them NEVER CHANGE
They’re so ridiculously overprotective it stressed me out. Especially with the bars thing. Like the women did great and they were “I got you I got you” with their arms all around them. How can you be confident and focus with that?
@La Austin I understood it more like they are all parkour instructors and they are probably used to newbies letting go before time or getting hurt so they just prepare themselves to help them out or catch them. To them the girls were newbies at parkour and treated them as such to prevent any accident.
Remember that these guys are used to instructing kids. It's just second nature to look out for the people doing it for the first time, regardless of their skills in other areas.
@@catsi563 I agree, however, most parkour is very choreographed as well. It's extremely rare for a traceur to legitimately train with no prior knowledge to the terrain ahead and all the obstacles within it. Most of us look around the area, check the dangers of the place (unstable walls, loose bricks, shaky hand rails, etc), then we come up with a line (a line or a run, is a short sequence of obstacle transversing that's been premeditated and planned out, kind of like an obstacle course). After the line has been thought of, we do each step of the line individually (if it's difficult or scary anyways, if it's easy then we'll go right away). Once feeling comfortable with every step of the run, we commit. We may fail sometimes, but we don't stop until we complete the run perfectly, usually anyways.
@@prefix253 I disagree slightly. theres a difference between a choreographed routine like gymnastics and Parkour where sure I grant you they might study the terrain but when the time comes to actually run they tend to wing it on the fly. Still I do agree that most traceurs get to know the terrain really well ahead of time.
@@prefix253 This, very much! The reason why there's less traceurs getting hurt in parkour than football players in football is because we prepare our runs by trying out separate sections at a time and we also know and test our own and the surface's boundaries before doing the entire run.
@@catsi563 No, I'm telling you, as a traceur myself, we hardly ever wing it on the fly. Everyone in my community comes up with a line, and everyone even on RUclips does the same thing. Check out the big parkour channels on RUclips, such as Storror, Team Farang, Tempest Freerunning, Motus Projects, Sqvadron, Mareo Gang, etc. They all do the same thing that I've said. Sure there's some cases where we "go with the flow', but the majority of the time, we flow through a run we've already thought of and practiced numerous times.
They're probably used to seeing 20 and 30 year olds completely out of shape, who try out parkour for the first time. I really think they were impressed by how fast these girls learned these moves, and it's obviously expected that they were not gonna master it on their first day.
@@atanasangeliev I wasnt saying there was anything to judge. I was saying the way that they spoke was very respectful none the less. Jeeze i should just never comment anything because theres always one person criticizing what i say no matter what and taking it wrong. Simply tried to give my support ay
@@earthandfire4840 You should always comment if you have something to say, even if people don't share your opinion. But that's not the case here. I absolutely agree with what you said but it sounded like you find it surprising, as if they are meeting inferior athletes. Anyway the internet is full of misunderstandings, don't hesitate to clear them and voice your thoughts, and be nice. Or don't, I cannot tell you what to do. Have a nice day :)
Both groups were so humble and gracious towards each other which probably made for a really great learning environment. The ladies were ideal students (open to learning and trying everything) and the gentlemen were wonderful teachers, who were very generous with their knowledge and encouragement.
I think one of the biggest differences I noticed between the traceurs and the gymnasts was how they landed everything. In Gymnastics, landings are a major component that have just as much importance as the routine and need to be hit with strength and intensity. Parkour landings, while they do need to be solid for precision landings, are more about being light on your feet so you can have options over where to go next. It's much more fluid and opportunistic rather than the final impact. I really liked this video.
what do you mean? gymnasts are always known for their strength and always appreciated. for me, the parkour people are always underappreciated for their strength.
Inquisitve m I mean both views are true but I think people that do parkour project a stronger image to people because they do it in an uncontrolled and sometime extreme environment which make people think that it requires greater strength Meanwhile gymnast are mostly known for swinging on a bar, jumping on a beam and dancing. It’s not really a matter of what’s harder (both are hard in different ways) but what projects an image of strength. Graceful rarely translate to strong to the masses, while extreme sports do
BS, anyone who has done high school PT has a bit of experience with it and what strength it takes, ESPECIALLY if you can make it look graceful. No one who has watched Olympic gymnastics has missed the muscle development on female gymnasts. And these guys never disparaged the gymnasts, they were very encouraging and appreciative of the progress they made.
Barbara Danley to be clear, I said being graceful does not translate to the masses as hard or strong, NOT that being graceful is an easy thing. I’m pretty sure that for all sports, if you’re not a fan, the masses will only look at things superficially. Doesn’t matter if you tried it at PE, the first image it projects is that gymnastics is an indoor sport, and majority of the people in it are women.
I'm like 90% sure he has a german accent going on there and that's why he sounds a bit weird. Let's be honest here, 'Jesse Danger' sounds completely made up
We are sorry that you view strength, flexibility, control, balance and mobility training such as this childish. You might prefer to spend an hour on a treadmill or lifting weights. We prefer to continue doing things that regular people can’t even do.
Thomas Estwick It actually is EXACTLY like childsplay lol I just wish I was though as a kod that those things are real sports! I was good at anything you‘d use in gymnastics or circus as a kid but only cause we did ball sports alone pretty much in elementary school I though where I was good at there was no „real sport“ that would translate to it :( Anyway I am super glad at least as an adult I got into circus training like bet te r later than never and it really does feel like still playing! Like they say „you don‘t stop playing because you grow old, you grow old because you stop playing“
Sport player need to keep a strict hygiene with no alcohol or cig or anything, and also fondation is not recommended when you sweat. I guess that's why, their skins are in perfect health.
@@jacasteasers That's how I got clear skin. I went to the US military for a bit. All my acne dissipated and my skin started to glow. When I went back to civilization, I got back to eating junk food. I drank less water. I never really had an acne problem, but there was a notable difference between my before and afters.
You can see their technicality in their landings. It is amazing how the girls always open their arms, stretch their bodies and smile even for a second.
@@lamachichi2631 i have to remind you that these gymnastic athletes are human and can still fall and get injured so it's only natural for the guys to care whether they get injured or not they are parkour instructors who teach children for a reason you know so open your eyes a little bit will you
@@takoiwao5403/videos Makes sense. Gotta get it right in the gym before you try it 30ft up in the air. Secrets or toxic competition could literally cause pain and/or death.
Technically that would be correct. Parkour is all about moving safely and efficiently. If you've never trained, you would run around and duck things. You then put in the time and effort to learn and open up more and more efficient options and you train them relentlessly to make them consistent and therefore safe.
The urge to salute after landing, Or complete the moves with the hands and arms above that must’ve been in their minds and body wanting to do it automatically.
indeed, and it's funny because it actually goes against the core essence of parkour, because it hinders the fluidity of motion and efficiency. It would have been cool to see them tackle this aspect of parkour, rather than just the strict exercises in isolation. Transitions between techniques is actually the most important element of parkour.
@@Real_MisterSir They're just trying it not training to go professional in it. It's hard to break habit when they've been trained since a young age to move the way they move. Both sports are great and they have their own styles. It's not for us to expect that they will do it perfectly the first time they try it.
They did well in terms of confidence in their bodies, bot in truth they failed every test quite miserably.. But that is to be expected when you're new to it, very few people get the basics right the first day of trying.
@@FrancesBaconandEggs Yes they did. They didn't do a single exercise the proper way, and in the end when they actually had to display real parkour (linking the different moves together into a fluent and consistent motion), they all failed. In every situation they showed a lack of body control, they had very little precision in their movement in general, and they constantly came to a full stop and lost all momentum, which is the exact opposite of what parkour requires of you. It's not just about jumping the distance or not falling off the edge. It's about how you do it, and how you link that to the next move you're gonna make. Parkour is not about exercises in isolation, it's about a cohesive display of fluency and efficiency. For clarification, this is not a rant and I'm not trying to discredit them. By all means they did great for what was expected of them. Nobody will do this perfectly in first try, or in their 100th try even. So considering that, they did well. But purely objectively speaking, they all did fail misserably, and it is blatantly obvious to anyone who practices parkour.
Pretty sure that's this is actually an indicator that it was done wrong. That's a lot of kinetic energy wasted instead of being put into keeping the run.
It's a cool sound on the mat, but also the reason I always cringe when watching gymnastics landings. The fact that the sport considers such stiff landings to be "good" sounds like a reason to keep knee surgeons in business.
Darling Lionheart this is a very real and discussed thing in the gymnastics world-that and the insanely tough judging makes it unsafe to do for a long time always trying to be more stiff to get better scores but never getting better scores so it just keeps going in a spiral!
I think because gymnastics is so controlled the aim is more on being grounded. breaking this habit when you try parkour is probably the biggest hurdle.
It was nice to see. If they fall it's on hard concrete and they can get hurt. It is a parkour studio after all. it's not like in gymnasium where they are landing on soft and padded platforms.
@@Edd_LShore even in gymnastic competitions with professional gymnast with years of training have people spot for them but you're triggered here when they are learning parkour for the first time?
I love how much instruction and skill is put into this. The men are fantastic teachers and give so much to their craft and the history and the women are great students. Love the passion and energy that everyone puts in
watched both this video and the one where the gymnasts did the parkour. Was very impressed with everyone in both videos. There was mutual respect between all the participants and a fair bit of "out of the comfort zone" for everyone, but nobody slacked off, they tried everything and did their absolute best. Really enjoyed both videos.
It really was great to see. Everyone had fun while at the same time taking it seriously (trying to do it correctly, even for example when the guys were trying the more flamboyant gymnastics flourishes), so much mutual respect and humility, not only between gymnasts and parkour(... ists?) but within the groups (gymnasts were encouraging each other, parkour guys were encouraging each other in the other vid). And the admiration for each other's disciplines. This vid and it's partner vid were both fun, interesting, and showed the best of human nature and physical ability. Glad it was recommended 😎
Gymnasts in particular have a very strong discipline. You don't get very far in that sport by slacking off and not being very committed. It's one of the most demanding sports, and there's a lot of pressure on each individual athlete. They have to find their own motivation. So I'm not at all surprised.

Isabelle Persson these parkour guys (at least some of them) teach parkour, as said when they introduced themselves. If they teach beginners or children, they would be used to protecting and being ready to save the parkour learners, so I'm pretty sure that's why they were looking out for them.
Dearth of Doohickey’s maybe it wasn’t gymnastics season and she just did this for the video, I wouldn’t take off my nails for a couple of RUclips videos either. Wasting money for what tuh. Lmao
Me: *sees how easily the gymnasts learn the cat pass* Me: YAY, it's easy! Me: *remembers the gymnasts had, like, ten years of muscle-building, precision-building experience*
It's really easy for *some* people. ;) My younger sisters do it like it's nothing. But I have a bit more wrist strength to build up before I can do it safely.
It's really interesting to see how their trained ability to "stick the landing" comes into play with their jumps instead of that flowing parkour walk off. They did amazing.

No matter what, the gymnasts couldn't land the Webster without letting go of the signature gymnast stance at the end of a flip landing.
Which is fine.
Ikr it's so cute
Gymnastics Coach here - the landing is the first thing we teach little ones in gymnastics! so coaching that out of people is borderline impossible after they've been taught it all their lives! for example, I point my toes when I side-step in rugby, even though I haven't actually trained for years!
its muscle memory by this time, almost like telling someone to write using their left hand.
But the gymnasts were women, hardly a fair comparison
Never realised how similar these sports are, just watched both videos.
They are NOT similar. Seriously there’s so many differences like landing, transitions, exercises that they have to do, and many other things. Do not ever see them as “similar” cause they’re not. Please do actual research before stating a wrong opinion on a public website

the immediate hands out for balance and then up in the air to present was endearing
They should do vice versa. Parkour guys try gymnastics
Edit: Yes they did it. Go check it out!
I need this..
YESSSS
I feel like all the videos should be dual in that way, once in their environment and half switched.
Not equitable. Parkour is about adapting to variables and gymnastics is about rigid control. Of course the Parkour guys are not going to follow classic form easily, they weren't trained that way. I had the same thought about really top notch gymnasts-they will automatically point their toes and stick as rigid a landing as possible because after doing it that way so long with such high stakes it's muscle memory. They would struggle hard with Parkour.
All kudos to these ladies, though, they did well.
They’d fail. Miserably.

@La Austin Totally could be. I don't mean to accuse. It just looked a little odd to me that's all
@La Austin I understood it more like they are all parkour instructors and they are probably used to newbies letting go before time or getting hurt so they just prepare themselves to help them out or catch them. To them the girls were newbies at parkour and treated them as such to prevent any accident.
Remember that these guys are used to instructing kids. It's just second nature to look out for the people doing it for the first time, regardless of their skills in other areas.

The gymnasts are used to element, hold, element, hold. The parkourers are controlled flow.
Very much true. Gymnastics are very choreographed and regimented each element in its place and time, Parkour is free flowing and loose
@@catsi563 I agree, however, most parkour is very choreographed as well. It's extremely rare for a traceur to legitimately train with no prior knowledge to the terrain ahead and all the obstacles within it. Most of us look around the area, check the dangers of the place (unstable walls, loose bricks, shaky hand rails, etc), then we come up with a line (a line or a run, is a short sequence of obstacle transversing that's been premeditated and planned out, kind of like an obstacle course). After the line has been thought of, we do each step of the line individually (if it's difficult or scary anyways, if it's easy then we'll go right away). Once feeling comfortable with every step of the run, we commit. We may fail sometimes, but we don't stop until we complete the run perfectly, usually anyways.
@@prefix253 I disagree slightly. theres a difference between a choreographed routine like gymnastics and Parkour where sure I grant you they might study the terrain but when the time comes to actually run they tend to wing it on the fly.
Still I do agree that most traceurs get to know the terrain really well ahead of time.
@@prefix253 This, very much! The reason why there's less traceurs getting hurt in parkour than football players in football is because we prepare our runs by trying out separate sections at a time and we also know and test our own and the surface's boundaries before doing the entire run.
@@catsi563 No, I'm telling you, as a traceur myself, we hardly ever wing it on the fly. Everyone in my community comes up with a line, and everyone even on RUclips does the same thing. Check out the big parkour channels on RUclips, such as Storror, Team Farang, Tempest Freerunning, Motus Projects, Sqvadron, Mareo Gang, etc. They all do the same thing that I've said. Sure there's some cases where we "go with the flow', but the majority of the time, we flow through a run we've already thought of and practiced numerous times.
love how the guys were so professional and non judgemental
There was nothing to judge, the gymnasts were as good as them.
They're probably used to seeing 20 and 30 year olds completely out of shape, who try out parkour for the first time. I really think they were impressed by how fast these girls learned these moves, and it's obviously expected that they were not gonna master it on their first day.

Parkour experts have left the chat.
I don't think they fit into skin tight leotard, that's gonna be biggest challenges.
Ashley C YAAAS! Because the parkour bros would fail😂
Exactly
The other way around is simply impossible....
Both groups were so humble and gracious towards each other which probably made for a really great learning environment. The ladies were ideal students (open to learning and trying everything) and the gentlemen were wonderful teachers, who were very generous with their knowledge and encouragement.
I think one of the biggest differences I noticed between the traceurs and the gymnasts was how they landed everything. In Gymnastics, landings are a major component that have just as much importance as the routine and need to be hit with strength and intensity. Parkour landings, while they do need to be solid for precision landings, are more about being light on your feet so you can have options over where to go next. It's much more fluid and opportunistic rather than the final impact. I really liked this video.
For having a last name like danger, that dude's voice is super soothing
Exactly hahaha
this also shows how incredibly strong gymnasts are bc some people dont appreciate it
what do you mean? gymnasts are always known for their strength and always appreciated. for me, the parkour people are always underappreciated for their strength.
Inquisitve m I mean both views are true but I think people that do parkour project a stronger image to people because they do it in an uncontrolled and sometime extreme environment which make people think that it requires greater strength
Meanwhile gymnast are mostly known for swinging on a bar, jumping on a beam and dancing. It’s not really a matter of what’s harder (both are hard in different ways) but what projects an image of strength.
Graceful rarely translate to strong to the masses, while extreme sports do
zoë EXACTLY! These bros thought they were just some dainty little ladies, nah they were showin those boys up👏👏
BS, anyone who has done high school PT has a bit of experience with it and what strength it takes, ESPECIALLY if you can make it look graceful. No one who has watched Olympic gymnastics has missed the muscle development on female gymnasts. And these guys never disparaged the gymnasts, they were very encouraging and appreciative of the progress they made.
Barbara Danley to be clear, I said being graceful does not translate to the masses as hard or strong, NOT that being graceful is an easy thing.
I’m pretty sure that for all sports, if you’re not a fan, the masses will only look at things superficially. Doesn’t matter if you tried it at PE, the first image it projects is that gymnastics is an indoor sport, and majority of the people in it are women.

You can see their technicality in their landings. It is amazing how the girls always open their arms, stretch their bodies and smile even for a second.
I love how after a landing you can see a few times some of the gymnasts coming so, so close to just throwing out their arms in a post-landing pose lol
I like how they all have their instructor instincts ingrained. Like making sure that they don't fall. Like they put their arms up just in case
I just noticed that how cute they tense up and everything

Technically that would be correct. Parkour is all about moving safely and efficiently. If you've never trained, you would run around and duck things. You then put in the time and effort to learn and open up more and more efficient options and you train them relentlessly to make them consistent and therefore safe.
😅🤣🤣Teach me
@@hopemooketsa1867 XD
The urge to salute after landing, Or complete the moves with the hands and arms above that must’ve been in their minds and body wanting to do it automatically.
indeed, and it's funny because it actually goes against the core essence of parkour, because it hinders the fluidity of motion and efficiency. It would have been cool to see them tackle this aspect of parkour, rather than just the strict exercises in isolation. Transitions between techniques is actually the most important element of parkour.
@@Real_MisterSir They're just trying it not training to go professional in it. It's hard to break habit when they've been trained since a young age to move the way they move. Both sports are great and they have their own styles. It's not for us to expect that they will do it perfectly the first time they try it.

They did well in terms of confidence in their bodies, bot in truth they failed every test quite miserably.. But that is to be expected when you're new to it, very few people get the basics right the first day of trying.
Daniel Kemnitz they didn’t fail miserably...?!?!
@@FrancesBaconandEggs Yes they did. They didn't do a single exercise the proper way, and in the end when they actually had to display real parkour (linking the different moves together into a fluent and consistent motion), they all failed. In every situation they showed a lack of body control, they had very little precision in their movement in general, and they constantly came to a full stop and lost all momentum, which is the exact opposite of what parkour requires of you. It's not just about jumping the distance or not falling off the edge. It's about how you do it, and how you link that to the next move you're gonna make. Parkour is not about exercises in isolation, it's about a cohesive display of fluency and efficiency.
For clarification, this is not a rant and I'm not trying to discredit them. By all means they did great for what was expected of them. Nobody will do this perfectly in first try, or in their 100th try even. So considering that, they did well. But purely objectively speaking, they all did fail misserably, and it is blatantly obvious to anyone who practices parkour.
@@Real_MisterSir "The proper way"

It's a cool sound on the mat, but also the reason I always cringe when watching gymnastics landings. The fact that the sport considers such stiff landings to be "good" sounds like a reason to keep knee surgeons in business.
Darling Lionheart this is a very real and discussed thing in the gymnastics world-that and the insanely tough judging makes it unsafe to do for a long time always trying to be more stiff to get better scores but never getting better scores so it just keeps going in a spiral!

watched both this video and the one where the gymnasts did the parkour. Was very impressed with everyone in both videos. There was mutual respect between all the participants and a fair bit of "out of the comfort zone" for everyone, but nobody slacked off, they tried everything and did their absolute best. Really enjoyed both videos.
It really was great to see. Everyone had fun while at the same time taking it seriously (trying to do it correctly, even for example when the guys were trying the more flamboyant gymnastics flourishes), so much mutual respect and humility, not only between gymnasts and parkour(... ists?) but within the groups (gymnasts were encouraging each other, parkour guys were encouraging each other in the other vid). And the admiration for each other's disciplines.
This vid and it's partner vid were both fun, interesting, and showed the best of human nature and physical ability. Glad it was recommended 😎
Gymnasts in particular have a very strong discipline. You don't get very far in that sport by slacking off and not being very committed. It's one of the most demanding sports, and there's a lot of pressure on each individual athlete. They have to find their own motivation. So I'm not at all surprised.

Although the guy with the fro is so sweet and supportive and genuinely impressed, the guy in the grey shirt was butthurt lol
Isabelle Persson these parkour guys (at least some of them) teach parkour, as said when they introduced themselves. If they teach beginners or children, they would be used to protecting and being ready to save the parkour learners, so I'm pretty sure that's why they were looking out for them.
They’re breaking PE rules with them earrings 😂
Or those nails! How are they not terrified they’ll rip right off?
Dearth of Doohickey’s maybe it wasn’t gymnastics season and she just did this for the video, I wouldn’t take off my nails for a couple of RUclips videos either. Wasting money for what tuh. Lmao
THE HOOPS. Girl at my gym got her lobe ripped thru by a spotter cuz of hoops - ....yeah, she was fine,but it was majorly gross 😂
Bethany Gabrielle glad it’s not PE then.
The black girl with the braids killed it. She’s also 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Top 10 best looking woman I have ever seen.
The taller one is very pretty too.
Marcus Garvey I wouldn’t say all that but she’s definitely bad af
Docmananoff To me she’s not very attractive at all but to each his own
@@JohnDoe-fm6md I said that I have ever seen, not what you have ever seen.
Me: *sees how easily the gymnasts learn the cat pass*
Me: YAY, it's easy!
Me: *remembers the gymnasts had, like, ten years of muscle-building, precision-building experience*
Me: *sees how easily they did the cat pass*
Me: it's defo easy come on
Me: *still in bed at 1618*
Cat pass is actually really easy
It’s actually really easy
It's really easy for *some* people. ;) My younger sisters do it like it's nothing. But I have a bit more wrist strength to build up before I can do it safely.
The cat pass is easy tho once u get over the fear u realize how your body already knows how to pull of the move.
“Now we’re going to do a flip”
“Like this?”
“............
yes”
It's really interesting to see how their trained ability to "stick the landing" comes into play with their jumps instead of that flowing parkour walk off. They did amazing.
The girl with the braids looked so happy while doing this :)
I also think she was the best at Parkour out of the 3
This is so important. Men and women learning and supporting each other, with care.
