I Am Legend / Parkour

Parkour is just getting bigger and better. Did we call it or what? Will Smith's new movie I Am Legend is apparently full of some slick parkour scenes, so naturally we'll be in Times Square with all the opening night hooligans. Not that Will Smith attracts that kind of crowd really. But it looks pretty action-packed. Please don't tell me you still don't know what parkour is. Really? Okay, check it out:
We did a slideshow for V to illustrate the blog and (deep breath) long-ass (but well-researched!) article about parkour coming to America. Cool? We can't really get enough. There's another really good article in The New Yorker, but that one will break your Blackberry if you try to read it in one go...

This guy jumping around is Raquiem, by the way, a model with Red. He didn't know what parkour was either. He just did it. Which, they say, is the pretty much the best way to do it.
