Parkour or Free Running - exploring the urban - movement + touch + appropriation + playfulness

The city is a space of interaction, movement, encounters... spaces to be occupied, used, explored, enjoyed! These guys doing "parkour" or "free running" seem to be having the most of it!

Check this:

My Playground - Preview

This is a filme which "explores the way Parkour and Freerunning is changing the perception of urban space and how the spaces and buildings they are moving on are changing them. Mainly set in Copenhagen the film follows Team JiYo as they explore the city and encounter the obstacles it presents. 

Award winning architect Bjarke Ingels, founder of BIG Architects, is fascinated by the way Team JiYo convey architecture and takes the team to his buildings, to explore and unfold their skills, that may be just as groundbreaking as the architecture itself. The film travels around the world from Denmark to Japan, United States, United Kingdom, and China to explore where the urban mobility is heading."

 Another examples are younger guys doing the same in Belo Horizonte, Brazil:
