Earlier today I was poking about YouTube, looking for some media on a French musician. I plugged in just his name--Shurik'n--expecting to find the usual videos, photo montages set to songs, and 'fan videos' *twitch* that one runs across when doing such a search. And while I did find some info on the subject I was searching for, I also found ... wait for it ...

Romanian Parkour.

Not only Romanian parkour, but a group of free runners who apparently practice in Ploieşti (and call themselves "Shurik'n"--hence their popping up in my search). It was a rather strange juxtaposition, to watch these guys running and jumping around the familiar locales I'd wandered about in with other trainees last summer, never imagining that anything like this was happening here.
Unfortunately, David Belle these guys were not. Most of what they did was pretty simple--nowhere near the Dvinsk Clan, or even some of the entries from the ScavHunt (assuming those were actual UofC'ers, and not Aero Chicago recruits or something). But hey; they're out there and they're trying, so I guess that's worth something.
