cow already huge internet hits. now when you think of extreme sports it usually involves mountains rivers or even the skies as athletes battle nature to test their limits but that's not the case when you're an ace pacu up the urban environment provides the obstacle course for free run as they run jump on climb their way over anything and everything and for frenchmen you on live who the rooftops of paris are the perfect playground. you on the roof has only one chance to make this jump. there are no safety nets below the rooftops of paris park or is a kind of extreme sport the roos been doing it professionally since two thousand and nine. he's built a philosophy around. here. is the art of forward motion pushing

limits it involves adapting yourself and your body to a certain environment to becoming obstacles but mentally and physically it's that while. it also means being in continual motion and your one has found an ideal place in the center of paris to get in shape not far from the rusty a pedestrian bridge over the seven offers a wide range of opportunities to practice. viewers are advised against trying this at home no matter how easy it looks when you go on go strolling across the railings . and feel as if i'm in any kind of an unusual situation know that i have to be especially careful because of the money i just imagine i'm walking a straight line on the ground if i go by that principle i feel no stress. and there's no reason for me to fall as long as i can walk a straight line. but even the most experienced part where athletes slip up every once in

a while. i was holding on at this very spot and went to make a three hundred sixty degree turn when i executed the move i slipped and fell in the water. ranges ten meters high fortunately i can swim and i got out of the water by climbing up a ladder but i'll definitely remember that mishap forever you know many you can't afford back kind of mistake in this case i was lucky enough to land in the water. so when passers by see him in action how did they react. it is what you might cure some people are curious and ask questions they're interested others don't want to hear anything about it they're scared of what they don't know. i always try to communicate courage instead of fear and you watch. them all just sitting there. the park or pro is always on the lookout for new locations

to practice his passion there are plenty of rooftops in paris but it isn't always so easy to reach them. if i literally just missed him so if the roofs of paris are a gray area in legal terms we're told by the people who live there that you aren't allowed to access the roofs via private entrances and there's no way to avoid that really. today your aunt has once again found a way out. his concentration before a jump like this is ferocious one wrong move could kill him. he says he doesn't want to think about the dangers. of the oily type personally don't connect what i'm doing to death in any way for me that's a very negative concept and you have to be careful employing it. you can also die just trying to cross the street what extent are so many external factors that can

be calculated and live with it but at what point i'm out here on the rooftops then it's just me and my body coping with potential dangers of what others view as dangerous lines are the root of my walk with. you one has taken part in many international competitions in two thousand and thirteen you won the world champion title in the discipline he's also founded a french park or teen and set up an academy where he teaches others what he knows. to dance book on it's a sport that anyone can practice no matter how old you are or what. kind of shape here and there are no excuses excuses it's about the art of movement i'm no commissions we all have bodies that we should be using the commerce of a tour experience. but no one says you have to start by leaping across paris rooftops. next up is a sport that is uplifting to say the least indoor skydiving if like me you're not

too sure about jumping out of a plane this is the perfect alternative it's just like real skydiving except there's no parachute and no risk of plummeting to certain death when it malfunctions it all takes place in a vertical wind tunnel maya could since gus started skydiving in her early teens and showed us just how to dumps with the wind. this floating dancer earned my own place in sports history with the first ever title or junior world champion in indoor skydiving. is the air in the wind tunnel blows at up to three hundred kilometers an hour but every movement is perfect the wind storm doesn't bother the polish athlete she likes it.

obviously it kind of feels like sticking your whole body out of a moving car leg it's just the same kind of like air pressure but you can control it so it's like see work or there's whatever you do your body does in that area but in the space you get. she takes her moves from other sports. fast dynamic twists come from figure skating. long stretches and figures from past projects. when my combine some it looks like she's flying. her favorite figure is the pistol. she devises many of her moves in the tunnel kashi has a completely different sense of how forty when she's. like that i don't know on the ground i'm really. so the fly it's not like you don't catch translate anything from ground to fly there's no like
