This Sport Wouldn't Exist Without Viral Video

The rise of social media changed the face of parkour and freerunning forever as platforms like Instagram and YouTube offered athletes the chance to reach new audiences and share achievements with massive followings thanks to viral videos. You could even say that social media helped to shape the sport as it inspired new movements, parkour communities and encouraged people to start expressing themselves with movement. @Andy Burgess explores the origins of the sport and its relationship with the internet.
