City of Stunts
Photos of urban daredevils, the world over.
The urban infrastructure of the city has always spoken to the world's daredevils. Superheros have been using gigantic buildings, grimy sewers, and tight alleyways as their de facto playgrounds for decades. A generation of stunt-artists (some actually trained in the art of Parkhour) have followed suit. Below, photos of bold moves in cities around the world.
