Man, playground steel fails. When it does, it is gonna be ugly.

Those foot giants are nutty. Ugh and those jams and german giants make my shoulders throb just watching it. I realize it’s part of parkour to have “non-traditional” form and I’m all for that but someone should at least teach them to stay tight and save them from injuring themselves seriously.
