Watch: Parkour Around George Mason Campus

If you've never seen Parkour, there's a good chance you'll see it soon around George Mason University's campus.

Parkour — also called "free running" — is an extreme sport in which participants jump, leap, roll and bound between obstacles using only their body weight and momentum to carry them.

And Freshman Omar Zaki has made a habit of playing with the sprot around campus. He was captured recently practicing the sport by the school's student paper, The Broadside.

The Washington Post also recently shared the video, which has earned more than 45,000 views in just two weeks.

“People see the videos and they think, ‘That’s impossible, I could never do that’”, Zaki said in the Broadside. “That is exactly what I thought, but now I’m an instructor, and I teach anyone from five year olds to our oldest customer, who is sixty-seven.”
