The Coolest Video I've Ever Re-Posted

Sobek asked about this awesome video of acrobatic-urban stunts performed by a kid calling himself "The French Spiderman."

Sorry: Link should be fixed now.

More: Same video as above, but in .mov format, and plays in window.

A different video here.

And yet another video here.

Thanks to Addison for these.

In related news, John Kerry just tripped on a curb. He demaned his Secret Service detail immediately wrestle the curb to the ground.

And then he went windsurfing.

Funny, ace, I didn't know you posted any questions about online poker.

Your sidebar is showing some spam posts.

What assholes.

Nice job, BTW, on the terrorism post from yesterday(or maybe monday?).

Link = b0rken.

Rule #1 - nothing French is cool. Nothing.

Enjoy those knees while they last.

How much Ritalin did that kid need to sit still in class?

Posted by: Eric Pobirs on September 8, 2004 04:26 PM

My 4 y/o came over while I was watching that video .... and she said "IT'S SPIDERMAN" ... so I guess he's named himself appropriately.

Posted by: Carin on September 8, 2004 04:41 PM

Two things:

never show me stuff like this. I love stuff like this. French or not french, spiffy. I freakin' hate chirac, but I admit to a love for French Cinema especially luc besson and this guy is making a movie written by besson.

I am currently watching the trailer. Now i must find the dvd.

Thanks Ace:P

Blaster, as desparately as I want to agree with you I simply cannot in this case - these videos are amazing.

Posted by: Sobek on September 8, 2004 05:17 PM

The young Mr. Belle probably has maybe six or seven more years of this until his knees are gone (he looks about my age, 24 or so, now). Those fifteen foot drops across thirty foot gaps--even with the compensation roll--have to be destructive on the knees and ankles.

But it's good to see kids doing something non-destructive. Can't quite call it 'constructive' but at least they're staying out of trouble. Woe be the policier who would have to chase one of these kids.

Posted by: addison on September 8, 2004 05:27 PM

Seriously, if this kid is even a marginally capable actor, somebody hook him up with a Hollywood agent ASAP. This guy + Jackie Chan = the greatest stupid movie ever.

Well, besides Army of Darkness, that is.

Eric,

He has done a Nissan Altima commercial and a commercial on the BBC (couldn't figure out what it was advertising, though).

Posted by: addison on September 8, 2004 07:30 PM

I just saw a Scion car commercial that featured the same kind of moves, if not the same guys.

Posted by: Sean M. on September 9, 2004 02:18 AM

It is a French acrobatic troupe... first seen in Wieden+Kennedy's work for Nike... my favorite was called "Angry Chicken" which had a black dude (he was being chased be a chicken, which was obviously thrown off things! hahaha). I think there are several of these guys, all amazingly talented. Scion and Nissan using now too?? agghhhhh! hacks!

I'm in advertising see...

Posted by: Daddy Mack on September 9, 2004 08:55 AM

Blaster:

He pretends Germans are chasing him.

Posted by: GE on September 9, 2004 10:56 AM

Oh, to be 18-24 again. Enjoy those knees, you'll miss them when they're gone.

Important Message from Recent Convert to Christianity and Yet Super-Serious Christian Tuq'r Qarlson: Actually Muslims love Jesus, it's Trump and his neocons who hate him
Tucker Carlson Network
@TCNetwork

The people in charge [Jews, of course -- ace] don't want you to know this, but Muslims love Jesus.

Islam reveres Him as a major prophet and messenger of the Lord, believes He performed miracles, and states that He will return to Earth to defeat the Antichrist. That's why Donald Trump's painting depicting himself as the Son of God offended the president of Iran. It was an attack on his religion as well as Christianity.

Trump's trolling tweet was ill-advised, but Tucker is just lying when he claims the Christianity-hating President of Iran was "offended" by this.
He's one step away from announcing his official conversion to Islam. He literally never stops praising Islam. Well, he suddenly became Christian two years ago, there's not much stopping him from converting again.
You can track Tuq'r's official conversion to Islam with this Bingo card.

People say that the bearded man in the video of Fartwell molesting a hooker looks like Democrat Arizona Senator Rueben Gallego, said to be Swalwell's "best friend" and known to take vacations with him.
@KFILE 21m

Politico is reporting that multiple people have abruptly resigned from Eric Swalwell's gubernatorial campaign: "Members of senior leadership have departed the campaign, including Courtni Pugh, a strategic adviser who served as Swalwell's top liaison to organized labor groups."

So the campaign is collapsing due to the truth of the sexual harassment allegations.
That hissing sound you hear is the air going out of the Swalwell campaign. UPDATE: No it wasn't, it was just Swalwell one-cheek-sneaking out a fart on camera

Oil prices plunge on bizarre realization that Eric Swalwell may actually be straight. A rapey molester, allegedly, but a straight one.
