What is the martial art used in Casino Royale and Bourne Ultimatum to propel characters off walls and into buildings?

The type of fighting used was "kali" also know as Filipino Martial Arts. This is especially true for Bourne but was used to a point in Casino Royale.Kali/FMA is very old (much older than most Asian martial arts) and is in fact not a martial art, but is instead a fighting system. Martial arts incorporate aspects into them that serve no specific purpose when pertaining to a fight. Everything is used for a fight in Kali. It is also the only martial art that starts trainees off with a weapon at first and then you work to open hand. All others start open handed and work towards a weapon. FMA does this because it is easier to learn how to improvise and fight with an open hand after one has leaned to use a weapon, than to fight with a weapon if one has not had any training for it. The weapon is an extension of your body. Lastly, FMA came into ist final form with the spanish invasion of the filipines, but has in fact been around since around the year 200 A.D. and has only changed and become more lethal (now incorporating the use of knives and swords as well as sticks and the body). As for the running scene, the type used was not parkour but was actually called "Free Running." It was developed by Sébastien Foucan and incorporates aspects of Parkour. The difference is that parkour is meant to get a person from one area to the next, as efficient as possible. Free Running is instead meant to get a person from one area to the next in the most aesthetically pleasing way. That is why you see things such as "vaults" used in CR and in Bourne Ultimatum. Wikipedia either one and you will see the difference.AikidoA variant of Aikido , I think? It is pure physical ability, not a specific martial art. Individuals that study martial arts improve their strength and flexibility, often allowing them to do things that seem well beyond the typical human's abilities.--------------If you are talking about in the beginning scene of Casino Royale where Bond is chasing the guy all the way to the embassy, the guy is doing parkour. Its not really a martial art, as martial arts is for self defence. Parkour is the ability of getting or moving yourself from point A to point B as quickly and as efficiently as possible. Theres lots of websites out there that will teach you about parkour, instruct you on how to do it, and show you it in action.


Why do deserts experience a desert climate?

The desert has a hot climate due to the sky being very clear. With the sky clear the ground absorbs all of the sun causing the extreme heat during the day. At night the opposite happens with the ground radiating the heat from the ground back into space making the temperature drop quickly.


What makes extreme weather in deserts?

Lack of humidity and clouds cause the temperature extremes. Humidity and clouds act as a blanket which prevents an area from heating up as much during the day and cooling down as much when the sun sets.

What is the physical art that propels you from wall to wall so that you can jump like Jason Bourne in the action films?

The art of extreme urban manuevering is known as "Parkour." It is described as an activity with the aim of moving from one point to another as effeciently and quickly as possible , using principially the movements of the human body. It is meant to help one to overcome obstacles, which can be anything in the surrounding environment and can be performed in rural and urban environments. It was developed by David Belle in France. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parkour/

What is the name of the outdoor sport activity that was started in French ghettos and involves people running up walls and jumping off railings and buildings?

It's called Parkour.from Wikipedia(or le parkour) is the physical practice of traversing elements in both urban and rural settings, although it is sometimes seen as a philosopy. The goal is to move from one point to another as quickly and efficiently as possible. This discipline was created in France, in Sarcelles, Lisses and Evry by David Belle, Sébastien Foucan, and the founding members of the Yamakasi. It is inspired by "the natural method of physical education" by Georges Hébert who first saw this form of movement done by Africans in Congo. It was then spread worldwide by films, television reports, and amateur videos on the Internet.The term freerunning is sometimes used interchangeably with parkour. While parkour aims to enable the practitioner to be able to move quickly and efficiently past obstacles, freerunning has a greater emphasis on self-expression within the environment. Freerunning includes tricking moves such as aerial rotations and spins, while the purist definition of parkour founder David Belle would not consider these part of parkour because the moves are merely showy, not efficient, and do not help the participant to get from place to place. Although Sébastien Foucan co-founded parkour, his philosophy differed and so he is generally associated with freerunning (see below).A practitioner of parkour is called a traceur if male, or traceuse if female. The word is most likely derived from parisian slang verb "Tracer" which means "to move fast" or "to hurry". In proper French "traceur" is an adjective qualifying something that leaves a trace or a trail behind it.

Is parkour and free runnning similar?

Parkour(which is what I do) involves running in a (relatively) straight line and not doing most of the aesthetics that freerunning involves. Parkour is really for getting from a to b as quickly and efficiently as possible. It was first made for a more efficient way to escape someone but has now turned into a sport. Freerunning doesn't have a designated path set and involves a lot of aesthetics (flips etc.) and is more of a way to show off. Of course parkour is kinda that way to. Hope that helps. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Listen to the guy above. But basically parkour is getting there as fast as possibale in a straight line (not having to go around thing but just straight over them instead). Whilst freerunning is where you do more trick (flips ect.) to show off abit more.
