My favourite part is this clown's rigorously delusional defense of his actions - stating that his stunt was safer than riding a bike or walking the streets of the city because he was somehow in control of the laws of physics and nothing could have possibly gone wrong.
I am not completely agreeing with him, but consider something like ski jumping. Ski jumping is safer than biking in a city (I haven't looked up stats for this, but I'm am quite certain it is correct). When somebody ski jumps they spend a lot of time practicing and only do it in a controlled environment. On the road, there are hundreds of people that are not paying attention to your well being.
Now, this is not as controlled an environment as a ski jump, but it is definitely more controlled than the road. More goes into deciding which is safer, but it isn't as black and white as it seems. I used to dirt jump and DH mountain bike. All of my serious(ish) injuries were biking on the road in the city.
Fascinating, impressive, and extraordinarily stupid. I watched it several times in a row. Sent it to my dad and he thought it was cool. He said he and his friends used to do some proto-version of parkour in the 50s that involved hopping from roof to roof of triple deckers in Dorchester.

My favorite part
is how none of the bystanders even blinked at that. Yup, totally routine.

For God's sake, don't give the Olympic organizing committee ideas for new events!
+1
For jumping from the side with the third rail.
-2 for that crap music dub.
Third rail
Yeah, that third rail can be a killer.
He Claims Parkour Is The Most Efficient Way To Get From Ⓐ To Ⓑ
Yet, he chose to involve the Ⓣ.
Okay it's amusing but
some copycat chucklehead will try and fail, making for a less amusing video.

Wouldn't it be safer to try it at home?
Unless your home is a subway station...
LISTEN
to all the jealous couch potatoes who can't even jump from the street up onto the curb.
