Today's video of the day come from YouTuber Calen Chan and shows him freerunning down the largest parkour course in the world (although isn't the point of parkour that the world is the largest parkour course). shot using a GoPro.

From Chan:

My name is Calen Chan, and this is a FULL POV RUN of the Skyladder Parkour course at Tianman Mountain in China! I had the wonderful opportunity to come and play here at this beautiful location called Heaven's Gate. It has an average incline of 45 degrees, and is 999 steps long (about 3 football fields)! Obviously this was difficult, and I physically couldn't sprint down the entire path of deadly drops without slowing down, but I did my best! I am the only person to do the whole thing with a GoPro in my mouth, so please help a guy out and give it a share! ;)
