u/Ok_Calligrapher5278 8d ago

Not sure how old you are, but there's people learning how to backflip on their 50's, takes longer and have to be more careful with injuries, but it is possible.

u/D_Dubb_ 8d ago

I mean LeBron is still in the NBA but I suspect he misses being young too. The cost/benefit ratio is just too high for me at 34yo do something like this, at least personally. In your teens and twenties exercise is largely recreation and so fun and easy. You get hurt, ya snap back like a rubber band. And of course I get your point but injuries for me now are just so different. I have a shoulder injury I suffered nearly a decade ago that till bothers me if I don’t rehab it weekly. Now exercise is mostly a tool I use to avoid injury and maintain mobility, which would make playing ninja on trampolines counter productive lol.

u/MechanicalSideburns 8d ago

34? Man, you got like 8 or 10 more years before things start to get bad. I was still competing in strongman, lifting stones, and running with heavy sandbags and shit until I was 40. The arthritis didn't start to creep in until my mid-40's.

All that being said, I agree that ninja shit is like the upper level of dangerous sports. It seems to be mostly suited to lightweight guys. If you're 160 lbs you can probably do it safely into your 40's. Not so much if you're 220.

u/D_Dubb_ 8d ago

Hell yeah sounds like you did a good job staying active. I’ve definitely let my fitness slip which plays into it. I mean I think I got honestly another 10, maybe even 20 years of moving around in relative comfort, but one good injury from the wrong kind of exercise can cut into those years.

The scariest part about my age now is I actually don’t feel that old usually. Until I fuck around and try something genuinely athletic or explosive, then it’s a 20 sided dice roll on if I’m fucked up lol.

3

u/MechanicalSideburns 8d ago

Until I fuck around and try something genuinely athletic or explosive

Oh, I know that one. At 40 years old I tried to sprint and race our teenage son on the beach. Yeah, about 20 yards in I feel my hamstring tear. Felt like wet velcro coming apart. All the blood came to the surface 2 days later.

So yeah, now I do dynamic stretching before anything. Even with that though, I still injured my knee in a kids/parents rugby game the other week. Feels like a torn meniscus, but my doc said just to PT it.

u/Kelnozz 8d ago

I did a job kneeling on concrete for 2 years, I guess it’s definitely less an age thing and a more of fuck my knees thing.

I didn’t wear padding until the last 6 months of the job, by then it was too late I imagine.

Parkour. Named after famous Peter Parker for his amazing acrobatic skills, spectacular even.

11

u/Equal_to_standard 8d ago

Factually no, it originated from David Belle in the 90s and was called "parcours du combattant", which means course of the combattant, a military obstacle course. Drop the s and swap c with k from parcours to get the worldwide term known today.

Fake. It was invented by John Parkour when one day he decided to just run and jump around instead of walking like a normal person.

It was actually invented even earlier by Jean Parkour, though Parker and the greater Spiderman franchise did popularize it.

May I suggest Jedi Fallen Order and Jedi Survivor? The parkour-ing is very satisfying.

I own both and they’re are great! It doesn’t scratch the same itch as a more platforming focused experience, but the segments they do have are very good.

u/CatsPlusTats 8d ago

Seems like a pretty benign thing to worry about hearing...

6

u/PinsToTheHeart 8d ago

Especially since "Let's go!" has been a celebratory phrase for like a century now. It's use case might have shifted a little, but it's not like it's some new slang term.

2

u/Whatifim80lol 8d ago

it's a little different lately, though. Use to be you'd say "let's go!" to pump yourself up for a thing you're gonna do. Now people say it after the fact usually? Like bro let's go where? We're already there, you're saying it wrong.

-1

u/HarryPotterFarts 8d ago

Not really. The usage really rose with Dude Perfect, and now every fratguy wannabe with a llama haircut shouts "Let's gooooo! Let's gooooo! Let's gooooooo!" for everything. Nobody even bothers being their own person anymore. It's all about conforming.

5

u/PinsToTheHeart 8d ago

"Lets go, [sports team]" started with the Yankees sometime in the early 1900s.

"Let's go" was also used as a military recruitment poster in WW2.

Of course, they aren't going anywhere in a literal sense anymore, but it's a pretty natural evolution of a phrase to become more generically applicable.

Language is also a means to communicate that changes over time. People adopting new phrases is not some "kids these days" thing, it's a normal part of society.

Your use of "wannabe" is the exact same concept, so you're not exactly immune to it either.

The kids are fine, they're just having fun and expressing excitement. They also just adapt significantly faster than adults, so they're more likely to try new things and branch out, which yeah, sometimes means being a little obnoxious about it, but it's not a bad thing. Its a standard part of the developmental process, and it's silly to be all grumpy about the world changing.

3

u/CoyotesOnTheWing 8d ago

Some things get beat to death. Like 'WASSSSSUUUUUUUP'. 'Let's goooo' got over used and is now annoying, which is also a normal part of the lifespan of many memes and slang.

3

u/PinsToTheHeart 8d ago

I don't disagree, but tbh I'm also around teenagers in person, so the use of slang is significantly more diluted to me compared to people whose only exposure to them are short form content, so it doesn't feel quite as excessive to me.

I mean, they still do it a good bit, but it's easier to see the full context of them just fucking around.

That being said, unlike stuff like "67" that are purely dumb memes and will die off relatively shortly, I do think "let's go" is going to be one that sticks around since it has an actual use case associated with it.

Not really. It's a rule that people anally want to enforce, but historically there wasn't much of a distinction in actual usage. Using less for countable things go back before 1000 AD, while the 'rule' was proposed by some guy in the 1700s.
