Free runner almost runs out of luck

TWO young Americans are keeping their heads down, thankfully, after their crazy stunt to leap over a series of shophouses on Sukhumvit went badly wrong.

On the last leap across the gap between buildings, one of the lads caught his foot on the gutter and lost his grip on the roof and tumbled earthwards. Luckily for him, his fall was broken by a small fire exit balcony, though he ended up with a badly fractured arm.

Their stunt, known as free running or ‘parkour,’ has become a popular but highly dangerous activity amongst young men in mostly western urban settings. It is not known whether the buildings’ owners or the police are taking action against the pair, though it is understood that their fathers have told them to stop their dare-devil antics.

In another part of town, it’s been reported that a Korean tourist recently fell to his death from the upper floors of a hotel. According to the hotel management, the man was trying to take a ‘selfie’ when he accidentally slipped over the rail.
