@Cris/32 I think most of that would probably be called Parkour or FreeRunning:

I've had the Latvian urban climbers on file for a few years. They got me interested in the "sport'.
Check this guy out from India:
A man who taught himself rock climbing and acrobatics to escape poverty in India as become so accomplished he's been given the title "The Monkey King."

He really does climb like monkeys.
We trust our eyes to show what%u2019s really in front of us. But it%u2019s surprisingly easy to trick them. And Patrick Hughes makes a living doing just that. He%u2019s an artist whose paintings are truly mind-bending.
This one is called Paradoxymoron. At first, it looks like a fine painting of a library. It%u2019s good. But it doesn%u2019t look particularly special. Then as you walk by, it changes. You won%u2019t believe your eyes. Hang on until the end to see how it%u2019s done.

While talking about unusual things I found this as well:

Although I couldn't find much music online so maybe it's mostly gimmic, but possible fun. :-)
"Indeed, I'd rather sign a contract with a record company than to sign up for the nursing home"
OMG Lennie that's something I didn't think of. I mean dance music and Granny's? Hmmm, well it's the future :D
I like the song about her. (bottom link)
And what's wrong with grannies? *frowns at Gerben over the top of her glasses and knitiing*
In Poland we have Komendarek, he is an awesome instrumentalist playing since 1970. Now he is still making electronic music. Very innovative guy.

Nothing wrong with granny's but they most of the time are nitting or talking a lot ;) Not dj'ing
