Greek Parkour Death a Hoax

We're very happy to say that no Traceur recently died while practicing parkour. We are disturbed to announce that this was a hoax, a carefully planned deception which was meant to teach a lesson Parkour is Dangerous . American Parkour and every other community has always placed a strong emphasis on safety, working within your bounds, and learning the basics before progressing. Further, we have always advised that there is no need to practice on rooftops or anywhere that the risk outweighs the benefits. We do not condone the behaviour of those involved in the hoax and wish to apologize for posting information which we thought was valid. Please realize that most parkour practitioners are respectful and intelligent and would not take death as a joke under any circumstance, nor would we choose deception as a transport method for an otherwise important lesson.
