Streeter: Parkour Edition
Streeter collects only the finest overheard conversations. Hear something? Send it to [email protected].
Wednesday at 7:30 p.m., outside OISE at Bloor and St. George. One teenage-looking guy is dramatically leaping, parkour-style, back and forth over a metal handrail about four feet high, as a friend lies flat on the ground beside the pole, photographing the jumps from below. After Parkour Guy nails a landing, Camera Guy gets up and walks over to him.
Camera Guy: Those were all looking really good.
Parkour Guy: Cool. I want to get into photography, but I’m just not good at taking pictures of myself.
