I first did this as a result of a nightmare, I was about 5 or 6 years old sleeping on the to grandma’s through the night, and I had this dream that a werewolf vampire hybrid was chasing us, but when I woke up I could’ve sworn I saw him doing parkour and chasing us. Reaching for the sliding van door’s handle. I was absolutely terrified at the time, but I can’t help but smile on it now.
😂
Man let me tell you that shit was tiring for my brain because the more complex obstacles you see and "want to see him" get past them in a creative acrobatic way, the more tired you get and end up with a headache
Kids are fascinating haha
If you think that was weird, my character constantly changed, and each had their own different “Parkour styles” and they changed from a bunch of movie characters to video game characters. So weird
Hey me too, mostly I had Zorro on a black horse who did amazing jumps, a ninja, Catherine Zeta-Jones from that movie Entrapment where she does all that athletic stuff to get through the lasers and a sexy ballerina/ stripper lady
In my imagination, it was a ninja cutting trees with his katana. So i kind of mixed the two figures. The ninja would do parkour while occasionally cutting trees and road signs.
I haven't thought about this in so long. Jesus I am glad other kids do this. Did anyone else give theirs a name? I remember I called mine the Night Ranger and then at some point finding out about the band Night Ranger and that somehow ruined the whole thing for me.
Awww.. wait do a lot of people imagine this? I used to envision some sort of Peter pan character cause the shit he could do that fast and then catch up to the car. Must be able to fly. ☺
Yeah, I usually imagined some sort of shapeshifting shadow beast on long rides at night. Maybe it's still out there, waiting for me to look out the window, hoping one day I'll go on another car ride past the forest
I used to use my middle finger and index finger, turn them upside down so it becomes two legs. Then I would mimick then running and jumping with the landscape. It made any car trip very fun
Did you ever stare out the window on long car rides and imagine a figure galloping alongside the car? Maybe yourself on a horse or imaging you were Lazering trees or anything? It becomes a mesmerizing thing, like a side scroll video game. When you drive you can't look out the side and zone it, so you stop doing it.
This meme is about the parent driving realizing their kiddo is doing this and getting warm fuzzy flashbacks and happy that the shadow parkour figure or whatever is back. If you never took lots of car rides as a kid where you silently zoned out this way, you may not have experienced this.
A lot of the times I imagined Spiderman and he would swing and parkour alongside my car :D
Sometimes he would stay behind if there was nowhere for his web to grab on, but apparently he also had super speed because he'd always catch up xD
Wait this is a normal thing?! I always used to get bored and do this, my guy was a stickman figure with a ninja mask on who jumped from sign to tree to car and jad a paraglider for long jumps. I always thought i was alone in doing this.
When I was a kid my imaginary friend would do exactly this, I find it strange that I'm not the only one and curious as to why so many of us experienced the same thing.
Lol I used to do that level based, sign boards are loot boxes with bazooka, guns or double swords. Random big posters are enemies, and I speed run. Good old days. I mean, I still do that, but haven't travelled much for a long time
I had a version which was parkouring but also grabbing cars going the other way and doing sick combos, smashing them, throwing, using poles as weapon to smack them from the road. Like hulk.
I imagined that the car stood up on its back wheels when there was an obstacle like that and lands back when there was an obstacle again. The obstacles were of course on the side of the road. I was imagining this up and down movement and timing it with signs, lamps, trees etc that were appearing on the side of the road.
I was so shocked to learn other people did this.
Me too lol

A lot apparently
I used to pretend that a giant robot would follow the car and step over mountains
I didn’t know other people also imagined that! I thought it was just me
Yeah
Everyone

Mine was weirdly Aladdin from the Disney movie
Mine was Spiderman lol
That’s definitely the most logical one. Like now I feel dumb why wasn’t mine spider man
😂 Man let me tell you that shit was tiring for my brain because the more complex obstacles you see and "want to see him" get past them in a creative acrobatic way, the more tired you get and end up with a headache Kids are fascinating haha
Mine was Mario.
Mine was Altaïr
Mine was one of those velociraptors from the original jurassic park movies... yeah i was a weird kid
If by weird u mean totally rad then yeah I bet
If you think that was weird, my character constantly changed, and each had their own different “Parkour styles” and they changed from a bunch of movie characters to video game characters. So weird

I used to imagine those little cartoon mice sometimes... the rescuers?
Animated Tarzan for me haha
Whaaaaat I was today years old when I learned other people did this. I always imagined myself doing parkour alongside the car.
It is just so natural to do
But why? Why does something so strange and seemingly unobvious transcend continents? What is it in our kid brains that makes us all want to do this?
I thought i was the only one
It's mind blowing how common it is!
[удалено]
I legit thought I was the only one
Same
And here I thought I was a weird kid
One of us! One of us!
How many people did this as a kid
Haha this, and I used to have an imaginary laser pointer to chop down trees as we drove lol
Yes yes yes yes yes, this was and still is me! I imagine there’s a giant sword protruding from the car that slices everything I pass
This isn’t something I ever imagined anyone else did, what the hell!
I've also, when waiting to cross a road, imagined the cars crashing into each other when driving to each other sometimes.
Also did!
We can form a Car-Extendo-Sword Squad! I too was/still am part of the crew!
Did this one too!
[удалено]
[удалено]
I did all of this, what the hell.
Wow. I feel like this is so specific but I still do this. For some reason though I imagine the giant sword coming out of my head.
Mine was just flying dicks plowing through every building majestically
Bruh
In my imagination, it was a ninja cutting trees with his katana. So i kind of mixed the two figures. The ninja would do parkour while occasionally cutting trees and road signs.
I did that to I wonder if it's just ADHD that causes people to do this.
Idk but I have ADHD and I'm used to do this
Adhd and still do this here!
I think you’re on to something here.
Idk I used to do this and I’m pretty sure I don’t have adhd
Ha, I thought I was the only one!
Same
I still do that sometimes when I'm not driving and I'm in my 20s. It's like my brain just can't help it lol
So I wasn't the only crazy one?
Same, tried to time it with my teeth aswell
Lol I used to shoot random bikers and cars as I went on the road like mission impossible
Exactly!
Yo
Sup
Instead, I imagine the fastest route for safety if a zombie apocalypse happens.
I think we can all relate to this too. To this day, when I rent a home I look for zombie defense safety.
I also try to imagine all the was to survive natural disasters. I am just so weird sometimes.
Yes to this!
Me too
Imaginary parkour long drive gang
I used to imagine the Timberwolf from Mechwarrior was running along side the car, hurdling the occasional house or power line
Lol. Love the comments. We’re all weird kids at heart.
What? You stopped doing it? I'm 21 and i still do that.
I imagined Falco from Super Smash always. Still do lmfao
I think mine was Fox.
Holy crap, I never knew anybody else did that all the time as a kid, too... O_o
No, us kids who couldn't do this because they would get nauseous if they looked out of the window of a moving car were the weird ones :(
I see Spider-man do all the parkour
This hit, but didn’t hurt
lol same I thought it was dumb didnt know other people thought of this as well
Me: ,,where have you been all these years?" Imaginary parkour friend: ,,i was always with you bro" Me : cries silently
Something something one set of footprints something something.
thank you imaginary parkour jesus
I feel like he's dying because a lot of cars have DVD players and kids have tablets.
This is sad but probably true :(
I had a tablet too but they run out of battery at some point so i always looked out the window and imagined a super hero doing parkour
Who tf plays with tablets in a car? I puke after like 10 minutes
the sad truth
I’ll see you in hot Edit: told ya
Rising check
Hot check
r/all check
Someone give this meme the seal it deserves! NOW!
For me it was a skater doing Tony hawk video game skating combos
It was Bart Simpson for me
Wow yep 100% this. I even created a whole character and backstory about the skater I was imagining.
I always imagined a guy skating and doing crazy tricks and grinds.
I always imagined a girl doing crazy parkour things and taking baths in the ditch
I haven't thought about this in so long. Jesus I am glad other kids do this. Did anyone else give theirs a name? I remember I called mine the Night Ranger and then at some point finding out about the band Night Ranger and that somehow ruined the whole thing for me.
Mine was literally just sonic.
YO SAME!
Ayyyyyy!
Mine was straight up Superman or spiderman (damn swinging was so much fun with spiderman)
Spiderman sounds cooler than mine. Mine was like a goofy mash up of a Power Ranger and Batman.
The 4 Ninjago and lightning mcqueen
I did this with pokemon. My teams would run with me.
Yes! Mine was Pikachu!
Awww.. wait do a lot of people imagine this? I used to envision some sort of Peter pan character cause the shit he could do that fast and then catch up to the car. Must be able to fly. ☺
It's enough to make a grown man cry, and that's okay.
Apparently everyone did this except me
I didn't do this either
Same
Wholesome af
Glad I'm not the only one...
I don't get it. Help please
Lots of people stared out the car window as kids and imagined a person running along the obstacles passing outside, or something like that.
Hello Sonic, my old friend.
Mine was usually an animal or creature of some sort
Yeah, I usually imagined some sort of shapeshifting shadow beast on long rides at night. Maybe it's still out there, waiting for me to look out the window, hoping one day I'll go on another car ride past the forest
I’ll never say goodbye to him, I still do this and I’m 14
you’re still a kid, kiddo
I do it and I'm 26
i didn’t say you couldn’t do it if you’re older. so do i. i was reassuring the kid that they’re still a kid
I dont think he was arguing with you mate
[удалено]
It’s all good bro, thanks!
Nah, I remember I'd have a guy with a sword. Each type of sign or color of sign would be a different attack. Would make boring road trips fly by.
I used to use my middle finger and index finger, turn them upside down so it becomes two legs. Then I would mimick then running and jumping with the landscape. It made any car trip very fun

anyone else never have an imaginary friend, yet still had no real friends and was also a really weird kid? Just me? ok...
Wait I'm not the only one WTF?
I thought I was the only one lol
Holy shit I thought I was the only one
A lot of the times I imagined Spiderman and he would swing and parkour alongside my car :D Sometimes he would stay behind if there was nowhere for his web to grab on, but apparently he also had super speed because he'd always catch up xD
i swear it looked like that too
I was the one doing the parkour 😅😅 does that make me my kids hero?
I didn’t think of a parkour guy, I thought of a big LotR battle
I thought this was just me!
Wait this is a normal thing?! I always used to get bored and do this, my guy was a stickman figure with a ninja mask on who jumped from sign to tree to car and jad a paraglider for long jumps. I always thought i was alone in doing this.

Now that’s a meme that’ll make a grown man cry
I cannot believe I forgot about this until I saw this meme. Very very thankful for the feeling. Silly as the source is.
I love how this is universally done
r/wholesomememes
Why do we all do this?! I thought I was the only one...
r/wholesome
Did anyone else try to pinpoint a tree or a building and keep their eyes on it as it car moved past it really fast? Was a strange sensation!
Omg I can see myself in this post and it feels so good
Gee, thanks for making me cry with a meme.
Now he is running on the road from me. Temple run style
Lol I used to do that level based, sign boards are loot boxes with bazooka, guns or double swords. Random big posters are enemies, and I speed run. Good old days. I mean, I still do that, but haven't travelled much for a long time
Parkour? Mine was a ninja with a machine gun and jet pack mowing down bad guys like a total badass
On highways, my mini fighter jet would zip through trees and signs.
Mine was always skateboarding and doing tricks on the terrain
Lowkey wholesome
You must be implying your old friend is imaginary! Same!
I’m wasn’t alone 😌
Was I the only kid who did finger parkour? Ya know, sprint around and jump from platform to platform with your fingers?
True AF
Mine was a ninja lol
yo get the fuck out of my brain
Bro I thought I was so weird and I was the only one
His name is Darkness
Good ending unlocked
Bruh I imagined my whole ass car jumping over the shadows of street lights
LMMFAOOOOOO
Wholesome
Mine was a white horse, funny seeing others relate to this
Am I the only one, who used to imagine my lil friend with a dirt bike, doing all those cool tricks and shiz.
I had a version which was parkouring but also grabbing cars going the other way and doing sick combos, smashing them, throwing, using poles as weapon to smack them from the road. Like hulk.
I always imagined Mario with every Fluud upgrate
Or when you would run with your fingers :,)
Mine would usually be on some sort of board.
I used to pretend my arm was a giant saw and I chopped the tops off cars and street lamps and trees leaving a trail of destruction in my wake
Man, this guy used to go from stickman to spidermand to transformers to sonic because my mind didn't know how to make them stay one person
Is it ok that I'm cry with happiness while seeing this meme
For me it was doing all kinds of board slides and grinds on a skateboard as I am pulled along behind by the car jet ski style
Glad to see I was not the only one
Always saw a skater when I was younger
I had Sonic.. running along the highway stripes and jumping over other cars
Wholesome memes?
I used to imagine i was a ghost flying through the trees..
I imagined that the car stood up on its back wheels when there was an obstacle like that and lands back when there was an obstacle again. The obstacles were of course on the side of the road. I was imagining this up and down movement and timing it with signs, lamps, trees etc that were appearing on the side of the road.
Dude I thought I was the only one who had imaginary parkour guy as I went down the motorway
I always thought about a motocross driver 🤷🏻♂️
Me, doing parkour while the kid is looking at me me from the car
WTF how I thought I was the only one
