Inspiration from Damien Walters

Below is the official 2011 show reel from former gymnast and current parkour/freerunning enthusiast Damien Walters.

Damien’s videos are some of the most popular on the Internet (for good reason).  His athleticism is incredible.  Many of the movements that he performs with ease would be considered impossible by most.  In many ways, he has defied what logical thinkers believe is possible by the human body.

And while I don’t personally have interest in freerunning or parkour, I enjoy watching athletic displays that I have never tried or cannot perform.  It serves as a valuable reminder that we are all much more capable than we will ever realize.

    We’ve all seen this guy in movies, just didnt know it. Here are some of his works:

    Kick-Ass: assistant fight coordinator & stunt double for Aaron Johnson.
    Ninja Assassin (stunt double)
    Hellboy II: The Golden Army (double for Prince Nuada)

    Damn good showing in the last two I must say.

    I love that quote by Doug Larson. That can apply not to just to workout out but life in general. What a great quote!
