When one thinks of exploring the historic city of Venice, it is usually a breezy ride on a gondola or a pleasant stroll through the alleys that one fancies. But ask freerunner Pavel Petkuns, and he’ll show you a different way of exploring the city – through the rooftops!
The three-time Red Bull Art of Motion champion showed off his parkour skills in Venice as he jumped over bridges, gondolas and ran across rooftops in his latest video chasing his girlfriend before finally meeting her under the stunning fireworks, as part of the Festa del Redentore celebrations.
Petkuns draws inspiration from the silent films of the 1920s.
