I'd say, in the end that one dude lost. Didn't seem like he planned that last move very well. Hope it turned out all right.

I hate that the vid ends right there...it just leaves you "hanging", wondering what happened to that kid...did he break a leg?, or was he able to get down without getting hurt?

It is amazing. I've chased a lot of people and no one ever did anything like that. Some jumped out of second story windows, but the landings never went right. If that occurred in front of me, I'd retire on the spot. Oh wait, I'm already retired

That is pretty cool. I'd stop chasing after the first jump. They make Jackie Chan look like an rookie.

Truly amazing, that must have taken LOTS of practice, and a few trips to get the wrist/ankles/broken bones re-set...

that took a lot of practice and I am sure a bunch of scrapes, broken bones, and "mistakes" to get good like that.

I'm thinking that was rehearsed a few times before they filmed it....LOL, but I give them an "A" for fitness to be able to keep up that pace(provided it was all filmed at once). Strength in your fingers and forearms has to be incredible to scale a wall of a building with just those little finger holds.
The hand/foot eye coordination impresses me. I remember as a kid hiking in the mountains with my dad and on the way down we would see who could get back to the car first. Running down a mountain side at full speed like a mountain goat takes some decent foot/eye coordination or we would have a broken ankle or worst, so I can appreciate what they are doing, regardless if it was rehearsed or not.1970 RS/SS350 139K on the clock:

John, that was fun to watch! It's called "free running".
You can see a lot of this on utube.Frank
