THE CULT CLASSIC THAT KICKED STARTED THE GLOBAL PARKOUR & FREERUNNING REVOLUTION WITHOUT QUESTION, A COLLECTORS PIECE

So where were you in 2003 when Channel 4 first screened Mike Christie's classic?. Back then, Parkour, FreeRunning, David Belle and Sebastien Foucan were unknown to anyone living outside Lisses, just south of Paris. 5 years later it's quite a different story. This is the film that kicked started the Parkour and FreeRunning revolution throughout the world. Channel 4 schedulers thought they were taking a bit of a gamble when they first broadcast Jump London, but director Mike Christie knew he had created something a bit special. Cannel 4 need not have worried, with almost 3 million people tuning in. REVIEW (Don't cringe, we didn't write it) Forget tubes, trains and automobiles, packed pavements, the congestion charge and crushed platforms. What if you could jump across London in one fell swoop? Leaping between buildings, jumping over rooftops, rushing through the capital as if no one - not even bricks and mortar - could get in your way. Sebastien Foucan, the founder of Free Running and his team attempt to do just that and conquer one of the world's best-known capital cities. Like fictional superheroes Batman and Spider-Man, the team performs death-defying, stomach-churning stunts as they literally leap from rooftop to rooftop. In this totally unique event, the team of French Free Runners has been given unprecedented access to some of London's most famous landmarks, including The Royal Albert Hall, Tate Modern and Somerset House.
