Video transcript

Fear, nerves, passion - all elements of one freedom - free running.

Fun with danger, playing with life, what makes people feel more free?

I was always fearless when it came to doing some stupid stunt, mainly from the age of 12.

From watching those guys in the movies that jump from building to building, it made me want to do it.

From gymnastics to martial arts but as far as I am concerned free running cannot be taught.

The way that you get from point A to point B is your own style.

From the flips to drops to vaults, it’s down to your fear.

But I keep my fear to myself as everyone should.

From my first flip to my first injury.

From a rail to a building.

I was looking down with aces in my legs and pains in my legs, but then it just clicked in my head.

Lets just say pain comes at a price but I willing to pay it for freedom.
