Now that work has slowed down a bit, I am looking for a new hobby. I have found one: free running. For any of you who have seen the last Bond movie Casino Royale, you remember the chase where Bond is chasing the African guy through Madagascar. The guy who played that role is Sebastien Foucan, the co-founder of free running.
Here is video footage of the other co-founder David Belle demonstrating what free running is all about. Wikipedia says "Free running is a physical art, in which participants (free runners) use the urban and rural areas to perform movements through its structures focused on freedom and beauty." I think you will agree.
In other words, the guy doing all those crazy things in the Bond movie chase is not using CGI or trick photography. He is for real.
Does anyone think that my paralyzing fear of heights and public places will pose a problem as I pursue free running as a hobby?
