Personally, I think it is the greatest activity anyone can do. Unlike the common misconceptions of people doing flips off of two-story buildings, parkour is, in essence, movement. It teaches you to discipline yourself and learn from mistakes. While I myself have been hurt multiple times doing parkour, I have practiced (like so many others out there) responsibly, and have come out with only a few minor scrapes, bruises, and rough skin on hands. If you're against this, at least give it a try for a few weeks on a relatively strict training regimen, I guarantee you'll be impressed.

I Don't have an opinion of it.

If I see someone doing all kinds of gimmicks with public property I will feel they are talented but see them negatively as if they just stole something .

There is no doubt it requires a great bit of athleticism, training, and agility. From what I have seen it is very dangerous and we will probably soon see public ordinances against it.

It's like skateboarding and other extreme sports.

But they don't use wheels, they just do free running.

I see it as a hobby for most, possible professionalism for a select few...

Cool to watch, though.

I find it to be quite intriguing and probably very fun, but it looks too dangerous for my tastes. I've watched way too much America's Funniest Home Videos.
