Pomparkour is supposedly a new "sport" that is described as parkour with ladders. This ad for a sports drink is raising eyebrows because it has no warning that these are professional stunt people and this should never be tried at home. In fact, we get a glimpse of how they did it in another video.

That's my home town, it's always a nice surprise to see something like this when you're living far from home (Canada).
When I was a kid some friends and I found a discarded library ladder and had fun hooking it in the rain gutters and sliding on the wheels
Been there, seen that. Walked back and flirted with the women while they showed off for each other.
The song is
Lonesome Traveler - The Weavers (1950)
Tx Me too had curious.
If people are too stupid to realize that "Hey! Maybe I SHOULDN'T try a death defying stunt in my backyard!" then even if that commercial did have a warning, it wouldn't stop them from doing it.
