22 and 5'6" i do the same thing. Also sometimes i'll just spin around as fast as i can for as long as i can before stopping and trying to cope with the dizziness.MisterM2402 said:When I'm at the supermarket, I like to jump on the trolley and whizz around - relieves a little of the boredom of shopping. 18 and 6'3"![]()
I don't really have the stamina or risk-taking tendencies for parkour like you see on youtube, but I guess you could call a few of the things I've done freerunning or parkour.SilentCom said:Ambi said:C.S.

I also have a theory regarding running, jumping, and climbing stuff out in public. If you're by yourself when doing so, you'll look like you're crazy, although if you're with a group of several other people and everyone shows some level of skill; people will think it's some kind of organized game or sport.
