Makin' m'self feel old again

I watch a video like this and I think, "Y'know, back when I was 19, I coulda been one of those guys."  Then, when my brain wakes up a bit more, I think, "No, but I might have crippled myself trying to do some of that shit."

This morning I tripped over a fan in the dark on the way to the bathroom.

When I was a teenager I would have been all over this. My friends and I used to play no-ground-contact tag on playgrounds, but we never conceived of this sort of thing. Now, not so much.

Also, fans are dangerous.

That's beautiful! Very Blade Runner/Matrix with that roof jumping.

Hee hee - I like the dude who gives him 5 pounds at the end.

Fan related injuries are no joke...

You need a nightlight - maybe a Daffy Duck one - just don't let the Free Runners see it.

It amazes me that people can do this. Here is another video I found a couple of weeks ago that boggled my mind, particularly around 1:13. What I wouldn't give to be able to do this!

Sure... I could learn to do that if I didn't have a fear of heights. Right?

I'm always amazed at what some people can do with their bodies. I wish I could do just a fraction of what they can.
