"After Ryan Doyle, the 28-year-old freerunner and parkour athlete from Britain traveled across the globe in a quest to discover his own seven wonders of the world, he chose Baku, Azerbaijan as a place where he could make a totally different - spiritual journey and expand his freerunning horizons in a completely different way. Baku is known as City of Contrasts. Ryan decided to use that and create together with the production crew a special unique video, which would be a contrast to all other parkour videos - something quite surreal with different feel and different look - full of life philosophy and access to his private area and even his dreams.
Haydar Aliev Cultural Centre, designed by Zaha Hadid - the major new venue and landmark building for Baku, Shirvanshahs' Palace in the Inner city of Baku, oil fields, Opera and Ballet Theatre, Public Library, towers of Philharmonic Hall, rooftops of old Baku were those remarkable buildings and places Ryan was "dancing" with during his inner and outer journey in Baku."
""Just go for it. Don't live in fear of making mistakes, accept them as being part of life's plan for you, so learn from them and do them right." For 28-year-old Ryan Doyle, his favorite words are, "Get Over It", which the young Parkour athlete follows "literally".
Doyle's new journey stops in Dubai. Joined by Kuwaiti Parkour athlete Mohammed Al Attar, the two explore the roots and history of the city. Although it's mainly filled with rooftops, ironically it keeps him grounded and makes him appreciate every adventure he "jumps" or "flips" into."
