Parkour, the discipline of using movement to get from one point to another in a complex environment, without assistive equipment and in the fastest and most efficient way possible, originated in France, so no wonder that its newest form has also just come from there.
I don’t think it has a name yet. For now, let’s call it an eco-friendly gesture. Recently, Yanis Haggui and his friend Max started using parkour to fight light pollution and turn off shop lights, as required by the country’s law.
They posted a video of carrying out their ninja mission on TikTok, and it already has 330.9K views. Check it out below!
