Let's go. Open up. It's time for parkour.
Alright, time for my mandatory parkour check. Sigh. Let's get this over with.
You're late. You know the deal. You can do the one block jump for the raw chicken, or
you can attempt the one block vertical jump for the beef.
Here, in parkour civilization, no one chooses to jump for
the beef. It's better to be safe and do the one block jump for the chicken rather
than risk your entire life for just half a hunger bar more.
Tomorrow, you better not be late. Or you'll be doing
two block jumps as punishment.
Yes, sir. Sorry, I won't be late next time.
Down here, us parkour noobs only get fed once a day.
One piece of raw chicken is just enough to get you to the next day.
But that's the life of parkour civilization.
If you wanna survive, you have to parkour.
Every parkour noob has the same goal.
And that's to make it to the top layer where all the parkour pros live.
Except most parkour pros are born on the top layer.
If you're a parkour noob, there's only one way up.
And that is through the Temple of Parkour.
The Temple of Parkour is the only structure in the world that combines the
bottom layer to the top layer.
To make it up, you have to do an incredibly hard parkour course that no
parkour noob has ever completed.
And that's assuming you even get the chance to complete the course.
The inside of the temple is protected by a barrier.
And the only way a parkour noob gets past a barrier is if they've earned a ticket.
I've never even tried getting a ticket before, but if I'm gonna rank up to a
parkour pro one day, I'm gonna have to.
In my neighborhood pretty much everyone has fallen into the void and died
except for the guy who lives right next to me.
He's been my neighbor for five years.
No! Why did you try going fo r the beef?
I guess I have to change my statement.
I now live in in this neighborhood alone.
In parkour civilization, only parkour pros are allowed to break or place blocks.
For parkour noobs, it's strictly prohibited.
And unfortunately, I found that out the hard way.
A while ago I was searching around and I somehow stumbled upon an oak log.
No one has seen an oak log in years since trees don't exist in parkour civilization
so I had to try to take it.
Stop right now.
Oh no, I'm done for.
You really thought you could break that without me noticing?
What, were you gonna try to cheat parkour?
No, sir, I didn't try to cheat. I just thought it would be super rare and I
wanted to collect it.
Stop talking. Give me two jumps now.
Two jumps in a row? Okay. Sorry sir, I'll do it right now.
You know what? You seem a little too happy about two. Let's make it three.
Okay? I'll do three...
You know what? Now let's make it four jumps in a row.
Ah, four in a row? Come on.
In parkour civilization it should be no surprise that all punishments were just
more forms of parkour.
And that was the last time I ever tried breaking a block.
You're lucky you got a light punishment. Don't forget you're at the bottom
so follow the rules.
It's safe to say that if you're at the bottom level of parkour civilization
it's not exactly the best.
But not everything in parkour civilization is that bad.
For example, I was able to use parkour to buy the biggest house in the neighborhood.
In parkour civilization literally everything is parkour
and that means parkour has replaced money.
Welcome. Choose which house you wanna buy.
It's pretty nice in parkour civilization, all you have to do to buy anything is just
make more parkour jumps.
I'm not really sure why or how parkour works as a currency, but all I know is
I basically bought a two-storey house for free.
Somehow when I was buying my house I convinced myself to go for the ladder jump
to buy the bigger house.
In parkour civilization parkour jumps with trickier items like ladders are worth more
That's why this jump basically bought me a mansion.
No way! Thank you for buying the big house
Let me take you right to it. Just follow me.
Let's go! This is awesome, I just bought my first house.
All houses in parkour civilization are pre-built.
And they all have one thing in common.
It's a requirement that every single house has a parkour jump inside to get to your
bed. This is a way to make sure everyone in parkour civilization parkours
everywhere they go. Even inside the house.
So, this is the neighborhood you'll be living in. You're the only two-storey
house here. So if you'll follow me, I'll give you a house tour.
This is so sick! That ladder jump literally made me the richest one in the
neighborhood.
As you can see, you have a jump on the top floor and a jump on the bottom floor.
Let me show you the upstairs and then the house is all yours.
Alright, I mean everything looks good. I just have to do this jump to my bed.
Uh, yeah! I think I got everything figured out.
Perfect. Last thing, I just need to check if your parkour jump is good.
How are you supposed to check if it's good?
Wait, what the?
Did this guy for real just jump off?
Uh... I'm really confused. Is he alive? Why did he do that?
Alright, just wanted to confirm that your house is ready to move in.
The guy did in fact die so everything should be good.
That guy seriously died?
Uh... don't worry about it. It's a part of the job. Enjoy your house.
How is that a part of the job? What?
No one really remembers how parkour civilization started.
Most of the parkour noobs down here at least think that the parkour pros were the
ones who started it.
But the truth is, I think I was the one who started it.
For some reason, I can't remember the best but I'm pretty sure this is how the
story went.
Yo, Seawatt.
Yo, hello?
Bro, you think I could get a diamond real quick? I was mining for like three hours
and I only found two diamonds, and I just wanna make a diamond pickaxe.
Uh, sorry. Don't have any to spare.
Bro, come on. Don't be like that, you're literally just holding one.
Dude, just gimme one and I'll pay you back later. I just need a pickaxe.
Alright, fine. Give me one second. If you want a diamond, you gotta give me
something. Alright, watch out. Back off for one second.
Look. If you can make this four-block jump I'll pay you one diamond.
Make this four-block jump? Wait, why? Why are you gonna pay me to
do parkour? What do you even gain from this?
Uh, I don't know. I've just never seen anyone do it before.
I'd pay to see it done.
Okay, I'll take the offer.
Ugh, this is so annoying. Alright, just give me a second.
I know it's possible, I've done it before.
I told you bro, it's not possible.
Just stop talking and watch, I'm gonna do it in like 30 seconds.
Aaaand, there we go. Finally. Look, I told you it was possible.
No way, that was actually incredible! Alright, well, I got my money's worth.
Let's go, I got paid for parkour!
If you want, I can keep making more parkour for you to do
and I'll pay you for it. Are you kidding? Dude, totally.
Alright, I'll be back here tomorrow I guess.
And this is basically how
parkouring for money started.
The next day I showed up to see Seawatt's
house, he offered me way more diamonds
this time and he constructed an entire parkour course outside of his house to do.
But little did we know that this parkour course would completely change the way
that the world works.
Soon after this event, the parkour civilisation began.
Now that I think about it, there's kind of an unexplainable gap between those events
and now, but... oh well!
Parkour check time, you got 30 seconds.
Ah, another beautiful morning and I have to parkour for some more raw chicken that
will make me starve even more.
Alright, alright, I'm here.
One block for raw chicken, one block vertical for beef.
What are you choosing today?
Considering my neighbor just died for going for the beef, I'm just gonna go with
the chicken again.
Keep in mind, there's a ticket event today
It's gonna be about 200 blocks west.
This was huge news. If there actually was a ticket event today, I would need to go
for the beef. Ticket events are usually far away and I would starve by the time
I got there if I chose the chicken. But luckily I got the beef.
No way, you made that jump? You might become a parkour pro one day.
Wait, you really think I could rank up to be a parkour pro?
Ha, not a chance. You're a parkour noob. You guys never rank up.
It's important to know that parkour pros have really big egos and they like to put
down the parkour noobs.
This was an important day. This was only the second time I've jumped for the beef
and now, I have a chance to earn a ticket.
The ticket events are so risky because they're located so far away.
If I wasn't paying attention, I could miss just one of these one-block jumps and my
entire chances of becoming a parkour pro would be over.
But luckily, I made it to the ticket event
When I got here, there were only three parkour noobs in line to do the parkour
course. Most noobs don't even show up for the courses anymore because if you miss
one jump, you end up like this guy.
And that's the price you pay if you want a ticket to be a parkour pro.
I watched as the second noob fell to the void.
Hey man, do you think you could go already?
I don't know man, I'm kinda nervous I'm gonna fall.
No, you don't need to be nervous. I'm sure you're fine.
Oh, shoot... okay? Never mind then.
Before going for it I wanted to study the parkour course.
You see, every week, the ticket challenge changes.
And it's completely random.
And this week's course was extremely difficult.
There was a two-block jump to get to the ticket and if you get it a two-block jump
to get out of it.
Here's the thing about parkour civilization.
Parkour can be used for anything. And that includes bribing parkour pros.
Check this out. If I do a parkour jump with a 360 will you replace one of the
two-block jumps with a one-block jump?
You wanna do a one-block jump with a 360? Fine. There's no way you're gonna make it
but I'll accept.
Let's go, the parkour pro accepted my bribe and now I have another problem
I have to do a 360? Have I even done this before?
Whatever, I'm just gonna go for it. Please make it.
Oh, no way. I actually did it.
Alright, deal's a deal, right?
I'm not gonna lie, that was the coolest thing I've seen a parkour noob do.
Well, deal's a deal. Here you go.
Let's go. Now there was only one two-block jump in the course.
Still gotta make the first two-block jump, noob.
Yeah yeah whatever, just let me do the course, bro.
This was my best chance to finally earn a ticket. If I actually get this ticket
I could access the parkour temple and make my way up into a better life as a
parkour pro. There was no turning back now.
I had to start the course.
Most parkour noobs aren't experienced with diagonal jumps.
But somehow I got past it.
And now was the two-block jump. This was life or death.
I closed my eyes and I went for it.
I expected to be falling thousands of feet per second into the void but to my
surprise, I was standing on the platform with the ticket.
And thanks to the deal I made with the parkour pro, I only had a one-block jump
to get out of the course.
This was life changing. This was the first time I've ever received a ticket to access
the parkour temple. And I promised myself that I wasn't going to waste it.
I made my way over to the parkour temple. I was in a good spot.
I had three full hunger bars which is the most hunger a parkour noob can have.
This was it. There was no better time, no more perfect time to try making the
parkour course to rank up to a parkour pro
I walked up to the hoppers in the ground and I threw in my ticket.
After a few seconds the invisible barrier that guards the parkour temple was down.
And now of course I had to make sure I didn't fail the one-block jump to actually
get inside the temple.
I made the one-block jump successfully and now I was officially inside the temple.
This was it. This was the moment I'd been waiting for my entire life.
This was the parkour course that no parkour noob has ever beaten.
If you miss any of these jumps, you'll either die from fall damage or fall
directly into the void.
But I've come too far and I've practiced too much to have that happen.
I wasn't just gonna be another parkour noob that fails this course,
I was gonna be the first one to rank up to become a parkour pro.
My journey to becoming a parkour pro starts no-
Hey, wake up. You want a chance to eat today or what?
Alright, let's get this over with.
Let's go! Hurry up and do the parkour, noob.
Down here in parkour prison, even the cells have one-block jumps.
If you miss a single jump or if a parkour pro catches you not jumping for 30 seconds
you'll be thrown into the lava.
Alright, I gotta ask. You wanna do a diagonal jump to reduce your prison
sentence time?
Most parkour noobs would never take this deal. Diagonal jumps are just not worth
the risk. But I wasn't just gonna sit in parkour prison my entire life.
If there was any chance I could get out sooner, I was gonna take it.
That was unexpected. Congrats! You've earned one day off your prison time
That means you go from 49 years and 320 days to 49 years and 319 days left.
This is how my life is gonna be for the next 49 years in parkour prison.
That is, unless I find a way to get to that portal and make my way back to
parkour civilization.
Parkour prison is located directly under the bottom layer of parkour civilization.
If a parkour noob misses any jump, they fall into the void and end up here.
And the only way back to civilization is to spend 50 years here without failing a
jump. Before I was sent here I never knew this place existed.
And I was so close to becoming a parkour pro. My entire life I've been training for
one goal, and that's to go to the temple of parkour and complete the impossible
course to rank up to become a parkour pro.
I had everything. I earned the ticket to get inside the temple and I had enough
food to make the journey. But when the time came, I failed the first jump.
And now I'm dea... what the? Where am I?
Welcome to parkour prison or as most noobs call it their worst nightmare.
If you'll just follow me I'll take you right to your cell.
Parkour prison? What is this place? I don't get it, how am I still alive?
Hey, and uh, just make sure you don't miss any of these one-block jumps 'cause if you
fall in the lava you will die for real this time.
Oh yeah, not a problem. I've never missed a one-block jump in my life.
What I didn't get is why parkour prison existed.
Instead of letting the parkour noobs just fall into the void, somehow this massive
structure was made under the void to catch us, but why?
Alright noob, this is your cell. Go on in.
All of the cells in parkour prison were separated by a three-block gap.
Meaning once I went inside this cell, I would never be able to escape.
But that wasn't gonna stop me from trying.
Make sure you're doing at least one jump in your cell every 30 seconds.
If one of us catches you not jumping, you're not making it out of here.
Just minutes before this I was about to rank up to be a parkour pro.
And now, I'm in the most dangerous place in parkour civilization.
As far as I'm concerned, I'm the only noob right now in parkour prison.
My guess is most of them by now fell in the lava.
Wait, there's actually someone here! Let's go, I'm not alone down here.
Wait, why does this guy look familiar?
He's been my neighbor for five years.
No! Why did you try going for the beef!
No way, it is my neighbor. Wow, I'm so glad I'm not alone down here.
I ju- No! Dude, what is wrong with this guy?
Alright, he has to be doing it on purpose at this point.
The only thing that's better about parkour prison is they feed us fish instead of raw
chicken.
Hey, noob, let's go. You've been selected for parkour testing.
Be down there in 30 seconds.
And this is one of the not so good parts about prison. The random parkour testing.
Bro, wait! You didn't even fill in this gap.
Oh man, now I gotta do another one-block jump.
If you're a prisoner here, the only thing you hope for is that you don't get
selected for random parkour testing.
Every few days, the pros will pick a noob at random to test out a new course they
built. This time, the course I was selected for had fence parkour.
If I failed to make this one-block fence jump, I wouldn't be coming back.
Let's go, we don't have all day. Get on the course.
Yes sir, I'm going right now.
The worst part about these random courses is that they intentionally use harder
blocks for the jumps. The pros know that the noobs have almost no experience with
fence jumps, but they built them anyways.
Alright, testing complete. Back to your cell in 30 seconds.
By some miracle, I was able to get past this week's random testing course.
But what about the next week? Or the week after that?
There's gonna be some day when they build a jump that I can't do.
And I need to get out of here before that happens.
Luckily, I've been thinking of a plan to make my escape.
Back in parkour civilization, I used parkour to bribe one of the pros.
And now, I was gonna do it again.
Hey, guard!
What do you want noob?
I got something to show you, could you come over here?
This better be worth my time, or I'm not feeding you tomorrow.
Okay, what?
Oh, nothing really. I just wanted to ask you if I could pay you in, uh,
three diagonal jumps in a row for five minutes of free time?
Three in a row?
Yup, three in a row. What do you think?
You're definitely not making that. But it's not like I care anyways.
Sure.
Like always, parkour can be used to get out of any situation.
But now, I had one chance to make three diagonal jumps in a row.
Or else I was dead.
Come on. One, two, three!
Oh wait, I actually did it!
Okay, five minutes of free time. But you better be back in your cell by the
time I get back.
The bribe worked. Now, I had five minutes to roam around parkour prison to see if I
could find a way to escape.
I had no clue what was gonna happen to me after I escaped.
But I didn't have time to think about that right now.
When I jumped around the prison, I noticed someone doing the random testing course.
Wait, is that who I think it is?
No, you don't need to be nervous. I'm sure you're fine.
Oh...
No way, it is the guy who failed the ticket event in front of me.
That guy was nice. I hope he clutches up these glass jumps and makes it back to
civilization.
Oh!
Something was strange about this testing course. Why were they using glass for
parkour? Glass jumps aren't even a thing at the parkour noob level.
If noobs have never done glass jumps, why would they use them to test the jumps?
I just gotta get out of here.
I bet you're trying to think of a plan to escape, right?
What? Escape? What are you talking about?
I would never try to escape.
You're not? I was gonna take you to the portal, but if you don't want to...
This obviously seems like you're trying to set me up.
It's not a set up. No one says you have to stay here, you can leave at any time.
Just follow me and I'll take you there.
I'm 99% sure I'm being led into a trap, but it doesn't matter.
If he gets me close to the portal I'll try to improvise.
If this guard was leading me into a trap, I couldn't see what it was.
He was already getting me so close to the portal.
At this point, I was just gonna have to take a chance and hope that he was telling
me the truth. I was now five blocks away from going back to parkour civilization.
You can leave now, if you accept terms that you can never earn a ticket to rank
up to become a parkour pro for the rest of your life.
Wait, your'e saying if I go back to parkour civilization now, I can never be a
parkour pro?
That's correct. Or you can wait out the remainder of your 49 years here in prison.
So this was the catch. I could leave parkour prison right now.
But in return, I could never become a parkour pro.
Or I could try to survive here for another 49 years.
It wasn't worth it to stay. I needed to get out of here.
Okay, I've made my decision. I'm gonna go back.
So you accept! Good luck.
This was it. The work was done.
I escaped parkour prison. But at what cost?
Leaving now meant that I would be a noob for the rest of my life.
When I went through the portal, I was brought back into parkour civilization.
The portal spawned me at the entrance of the temple of parkour.
This was probably the last time I would ever step foot in this temple.
I had my chance to rank up to become a pro and I failed.
Now, I can never earn a ticket ever again.
You know, it's not the worst thing in the world. Now, I can just go back to my
ordinary life in parkour civilization.
You know, now that I think about it, it's not the worst situation in the world.
I mean, at least I still have my mansion.
Wait, who is this? I still own this house, right?
No, you don't. This house no longer belongs to you.
This parkour noob just purchased this new manison, so you'll have to leave now.
Wait wait wait, this guy just bought my house? How can he do that?
Well, you fell and went to parkour prison so you lost the house.
When you were down there, this parkour noob bought it.
Bro, really? Wow, so I really don't own this house anymore.
Well this guy-
Uh...
Okay, it's for sale now.
Let's go! So I can move back into my house?
After you buy it again, sure.
Wait, really? Are you serious? I have to buy it again?
I went back to the shop to go buy my mansion again, but while I was at parkour
prison something bad happened.
The prices for houses in my neighborhood went way up.
Now if I wanted to buy my mansion, I would have had to pay for it with a two-block
jump. It was too risky. I was gonna have to find somewhere else to live.
Fortunately, I found another shop that was selling wood houses.
A bit of a downgrade from the stone house but it was all I could afford.
I could either do a one-block fence jump for a small house or a one and a half
block stair jump for a large house.
I figured if I'm gonna be living on the noob level for my entire life, I might as
well buy the big house.
Luckily, escaping parkour prison gave me the confidence to make the jump easily.
Now, I got a mansion in a new neighborhood where not to my surprise, everyone fell
into the void, so it's just me living here.
The house is definitely a bit of a downgrade from my previous mansion,
but it's still a two-storey house and it has a painting, which is something you
don't really see that often in parkour civilization.
I just keep wondering what my life would have been like if I actually made it to
the pro civilization.
Now, I don't think I'll ever figure out what it looks like out there.
I just wish that- Woah! What was that?
When I went to sit in my chair, I backed up against the wall and there was nothing
behind me. This painting was covering something.
I walked through the painting and it revealed a secret door.
For some reason, this house I bought had some hidden passage.
Whoever made this was obviously trying to hide something. But what was it?
There was a ladder that led to the bottom floor. And when I got down there,
I found a man.
Somehow there was already someone living here. But by their leather boots, I could
tell it was a parkour noob. This was obviously some mistake.
I went to go leave, but then-
Wait, don't leave.
The man spoke to me. He said he's been watching me.
I watched you enter the temple of parkour. I think you have what it takes to rank up.
I'm sorry man, I think you're confused. I can never earn a ticket anymore.
I'm gonna be a parkour noob forever.
No, there is still a way I can get you a ticket.
Wait wait wait, what are you talking about?
When I was younger I earned myself a ticket, but I never used it.
Instead, I hid it far far away.
The old man said it wasn't his destiny to rank up to be a pro, but it was mine.
He brought out a compass and he threw it to me. He told me that if I followed this
compass, I'll find the hidden ticket.
This was the second chance I was looking for. I had no way of knowing whether the
old man was telling the truth or not, but at this point, I had nothing to lose.
Maybe this works, maybe it doesn't. All I know is that I wasn't done with
parkour civilization just yet.
Come on, just one jump at a time and I should be there soon.
Where do you think you're going?
Ugh, this can't be good.
This is a parkour checkpoint. Why do you want to leave
parkour civilization?
If the pro found out why I was really out here, I might go back to parkour prison.
I was gonna need an excuse.
I, uh, just wanted to practice my two-block jumps.
Listen, noob. Out there, you'd never survive.
Besides, what do you need to practice for? You can never rank up, buddy.
Despite my convincing story, it didn't work. I was in big trouble now.
Following this compass is the only possible way I can make it up to the
parkour pro civilization. I was gonna have to try something else.
I told you to go home.
What if I paid you with a backwards jump?
A backwards jump?
Okay, at least he's listening, and now I get one chance at this-
Woah! Oh my god, I actually made it! That was crazy.
Wait, no, that was crazy. Move aside and let me try this.
You got it! Just make sure you jump far en-
Oh, shoot! That was not my plan. I thought he was just gonna let me pass.
Uh, alright. Well, I guess that works.
Now that I made it past the parkour checkpoint it was time to go searching for
the hidden ticket. That's assuming that the ticket I'm looking for is even real.
After the mysterious old man gave me this compass and told me that it would lead to
a ticket to rank up to parkour pro civilization, I immediately started
preparing for the journey because this time, I wasn't gonna fail.
The biggest problem I had to solve was my food supply.
Parkour noobs only get fed once a day. And if this compass was taking me far away
there was no way I would survive on the raw chicken.
So for the past week, I've been doing the beef jump every single morning.
And for the rest of the day, I tried not to parkour at all so I could save the food
but that's when I almost got caught.
Hold up, what was that sound?
Oh no, I'm starving. This isn't good.
Why are you taking damage? Are you starving?
Starving? Hah, no... I'm just in pain because I love parkour so much and I wish
I could do it all the time?
Oh man, sorry to hear that. Yeah, love hurts. Well, hope you feel better.
By some miracle, the parkour pro bought my excuse.
If the pro stayed around for any longer, I might have starved to death.
I had to eat the piece of beef that I just jumped for, but it didn't matter.
I had already prepared enough.
By rationing my food, I was able to save up four pieces of beef for the journey.
I had no clue whether this would be enough food to survive the trip, but the old man
said I had everything I needed. So I guess I was just gonna have to trust
him again.
Now, it was time to go searching for the ticket.
Crossing this line of stone means I'm heading into the parkour outskirts.
No noob including myself has ever been out here, and probably for a good reason.
All I know is that the further away you get from parkour civilization, the more
dangerous the jumps become. Already, I was starting to see huge chunks
of parkour missing.
No one knows how the outskirts came to be like this. Or at least no one down here
knows. Unfortunately, the compass kept taking me further and further away from
parkour civilization. The old man must've hid the ticket out here knowing that no
parkour pro would ever go this deep to retrieve it. I was running out of time.
I had already been jumping for hours and now, I'm down to one piece of raw beef
left. And still, I found nothing. That was, until I saw something in the
distance. I had no way of knowing, but I had a feeling that this was what I was
looking for. In all my time here in parkour civilization, I have never seen
anything like this. This couldn't be a coincidence. Which means I was gonna have
to go parkour to the top.
I haven't really prepared for anything like this. Vertical jumps don't exist
naturally down here. They only place I've seen vertical jumps is when I jump for
food. Luckily, I made it to the top without falling into the void.
I didn't see anything at first glance. But when I pulled out my compass,
I was in the right place.
I didn't get it. The compass was pointing me to the exact block I was standing on.
The ticket should be here. Unless the old man hid the ticket out of sight and put it
underground.
If I broke this grass block and a parkour pro catches me, I would for sure be going
back to prison for life this time.
But if I'm gonna have any shot at making it up to the parkour pro
civilization, I'm gonna take that chance.
Well, here goes nothing.
I broke the block and underground, there was a chest.
I couldn't believe it! I'd actually found the ticket!
But when I opened the chest, something was wrong. There was no ticket to be found
just a barrier. The old man lied to me. There was no ticket to get up to the
pro civilization. Why would he send me all the way out here to get a barrier block?
This didn't make any sense. The old man knew I would risk my entire
life for a ticket, but he set me up. There had to be some explanation for this.
Well, if I'm lucky to survive the trip back, I can ask him why he sent me all the
way out here just to get a barrier block. Which is also illegal to have.
By some miracle, I made it back to the parkour checkpoint without falling.
Hey, you, you were the last one to see the pro stationed here.
What happened to him?
Oh, I uh, well I showed him a backwards jump and then he tried it for himself
and then fell.
You? A backwards jump? Are you serious?
Uh, yeah?
Okay, now I have to try. So you just go backwards?
Oh! O...kay? And he's gone too...
Am I gonna be blamed for this?
Fortunately, I made it back to my house and no parkour pro has caught me with the
barrier block.
Now, it's time to ask this old man why in the world he sent me out there to retrieve
this.
Alright, bro. Are you gonna explain to me why the-
What the?
When I got down to the basement, the old man was nowhere to be found.
All that was left was a hole in the ground
Did he jump into the void on purpose? I don't understand what's going on.
But that's when I paid attention to the item that was left on the ground.
I knew what it was before I even picked it up. It was a ticket to rank up to become a
parkour pro. The old man had it on him the entire time but still sent me to retrieve
the barrier block? The old man wanted me to find this barrier for a reason.
And now, this was the sign that I was ready to rank up to become a parkour pro.
It was time to head to the parkour temple.
I made my way back to the place that I never thought I'd step foot in again.
The place where no parkour noob in history has ever made it out alive.
I went ahead and ate my last piece of beef
Just like last time, I was in such a perfect spot.
Three full bars of hunger is exactly what I need to make it to the top.
The barrier guarding the temple was up, so I threw in my ticket and the entrance to
the parkour temple was now open.
All I had to do now was do something that I totally never do, and that's fail
one-block jumps.
Okay, I made the first jump. That's always a good sign.
This time around was different. I wasn't gonna let the pressure get to me.
I was gonna be the first noob to ever rank up to the pro civilization.
Ah, no. Looking at this jump is giving me flashbacks.
My journey to becoming a parkour pro starts no-
No. This time was different. I successfully made the first jump and for
the first time in my life, I was actually on the parkour course.
Now, all I had to do was just take it one jump at a time.
The first section was the stone blocks.
So far, I've only encountered one-block vertical jumps, but they were nothing I
couldn't handle. Even though I had been on the course for a good amount of time,
I was still ways away from making it to the top.
After I passed the stone block section, I moved on to the stone slab section.
Slabs aren't too common in the noob level of parkour civilization, but luckily this
section wasn't too hard. But it was the next section I was worried about.
The stair jumps.
This next jump I had to complete was by far the hardest jump I've ever seen.
It was a two-block jump, but I had to go up half a block.
But I didn't come all this way to give up. I went for the jump, but I jumped too
early. I thought this was it, but by some miracle, a block below me broke my fall.
And I only took two and a half hearts of damage. But that was too close to call.
If I was even the slightest bit off, I could have been all the way down there
in the void.
On my second time around, I made the jump. That stair jump essentially marked the end
of the stair section. And now, I was on the stone walls.
Walls were almost never seen at the noob level. But fortunately, I didn't see
anything bigger than a one-block jump for the rest of the way.
All I had to do was sneak and stay on the course. And that's when I got to the point
when the jumps stopped.
I was so high off the ground now, but I knew I was at the end.
I climbed up the stairs until I was face to face with the entrance to the parkour
pro civilization. This was it, I was about to be the first noob in history to rank up
But then, the realization hit me. The last jump to get to the parkour pro
civilization was a three-block jump. It was impossible.
This was why no noob has ever ranked up to become a pro.
The course was impossible to begin with.
But then, I remembered the barrier. This is what the old man wanted me to
use it for. He knew the course was impossible and he wanted to give me a
chance to rank up.
I placed down the barrier block and I made the two-block jump.
I did it! I actually did it!
I was the first noob in history to ever complete this course.
No one at the bottom level knows what society is like up here.
And I was gonna be the first one to figure it out.
What was it gonna be like?
Was I actually gonna be able to see the sky?
Well, I guess we'll find out.
I walked up to the stone walls and the doors opened, revealing a room I've never
seen anything like before.
I turned the corner and I saw a parkour pro just standing there.
Uh, hi!
What the, who are you? Where did you come from?
I'm the only one working here.
I... came from the noob level. I just beat the course and ranked up.
Wow, um.. I was not expecting this. I'm not sure what to do here.
Uh, just go over there and throw your leather boots in the lava.
Alright, time to get my iron boots!
Yes sir, one ranked up. A noob by the name of Evbo. Yes sir, I'll keep an eye on him.
And that was it. That was the last time I would ever wear leather boots again
for the rest of my life.
From the looks of it, I only had one more lava jump to go.
But this time, there were dispensers. I backed up and jumped over the lava
and I was equipped with iron boots. I was officially a parkour pro!
After I went through, I saw one more jump that led to some barrels.
What is this for?
It's for food. You only have to pay one jump for two steak here.
Only a one-block jump for food? That's amazing!
I opened the barrel to see something that I've never seen before.
Cooked... meat? In all of these!
In my entire life living on the noob level I've never seen a piece of cooked beef.
And now, as a parkour pro, I could fully replenish my hunger bar.
And that meant I could sprint now. Oh man, this is crazy.
Congratulations on becoming a parkour pro. You can now head up those steps and begin
your life in parkour pro civilization.
Those were the exact words I wanted to hear.
This is it! When I walk up these steps, I will be at the top level of parkour
civilization.
When I walked into the temple, I immediately saw massive statues.
These statues looked like they were showing the parkour noobs and the
parkour pros. They even had their boots on. This place is insane!
I've never seen anything like this.
I mean, look at these statu- What the? Gold boots?
Who wears gold boots? This doesn't make any sense.
What is this? Am I not at the top of parkour civilization?
Hey, parkour delivery.
Let's go, my parkour delivery is here!
Now that I'm a parkour pro,
I can get parkour delivered to my house.
Hey, did you order parkour construction to this house? Yes sir, that's me.
I ordered the six-block-tall slime jump to my bedroom. Sounds good!
Where do you want it built? Uh let's see, I think this would be a good
place for it. You think you can build it right there?
Oh sure, I can make that happen! To think just a few days ago
I was a parkour noob and now I'm getting custom parkour jumps installed in my house
is crazy!
This looks good? Yep I think it's perfect
Hey, thanks man for parkouring all the way out here.
Sure, you got my payment? Oh yeah yeah yeah for sure
it was four one blocks in a row right? Okay 1 2 3 4
there you go thank you very much. And my tip? Your tip? Really?
don't tell me you thought you weren't going to tip me.
If you're a parkour pro, Its always expected that you tip when you
buy something. Oh, I hope I make this! Oh, that was close
Oh, wow a 360? yeah, you're good man, thanks.
Like most things in parkour civilization, the way you tip is with
more parkour. Luckily, I survived that payment for the jump installed
in my house. If i missed any one of those jumps I would have fallen back down to the
parkour noob level and my journey to become a pro would have
been for nothing. But I won't say it wasn't worth it because now,
I can practice slime jumps anytime I want inside of my house, and this is how my new
life is as a pro in parkour civilization. No parkour noob at the bottom level knows
what life is like up here. Except I was the only one to rank up and
become a part of parkour society. To rank up to a parkour pro I had to be
the first noob in history to beat an impossible parkour course.
When I got to the top, I got my iron boots and I was officially a pro.
I thought I had made it, I thought I was at the top of parkour civilization but
that's when I realized, I truly knew nothing about the world I was living in.
My journey to getting to the top of parkour civilization wasn't even close
to being done. Now I was about to discover what life was like on the second layer
of Parkour Civilization. At the parkour pro level, everywhere you
look is a two-block jump. When I was a parkour noob, I thought two-block jumps
were extremely hard but now that I could sprint, I realized they were
almost like one-block jumps. Something about the pro level felt
different maybe it was the fact that when I was a noob I would see dirt in the sky
but now there's nothing above me and that's when I looked back at the parkour
temple. There was still a world above me and now it was way higher up
but there was something else that was different. I was staring down at the house
I used to live in. When I down on the noob level, I would look up and all I would see
is dirt but somehow on the pro level I could look down and I could only assume
that the same goes for the layer above me now that I was adjusted to my surroundings
it was time to go searching for a place to buy a house; That was assuming that
life still worked like that up here. When I took a look around all I saw were the
same identical buildings. Maybe this time I wouldn't be getting a mansion.
That's when I found a building that looked different and it definitely didn't look
like a house. When I walked inside the building sure enough, it was a shop to buy
a new house. Hey, aren't you the noob who ranked up?
That would be me. Oh, yeah, I thought was you. I'm selling houses today, choose
one you want to buy. Let's go! It's time to buy my first house as a parkour pro.
Let's see what these prices are, I can get one house for a two-block jump.
Oh, Thats super cheap! all right what is this one over here, I can get one house
for a 2.5 block jump. Okay, that's a little more expensive and this last one
is one house for a three-block jump, wait why are these all the same, all of these
options are for the same house. Oops, busted ha-ha. I was trying to get
a little more profit. Why would anyone fall for that? Since there was only one
house to buy, I obviously went with the cheapest option and bought my first house
with a two-block jump. Congrats on buying your first house as a parkour pro, let me
take you to it. Let's go! Since all the houses were identical it was no surprise
that I got one that looked like this. Uh, you're all set to move in. Feel free
to call the parkour delivery service if you want your jumps changed.
A parkour delivery service let's go! being a parkour pro is awesome.
The living room in my house had two one-block jumps and the entire house
itself was three stories tall. Looks like three jumps to get to my bed on the top
floor. Hey, it's your neighbor, can I come in? Oh, uh, sure. Thanks. You're that one
EPO guy, right? You're the noob who beat the course and ranked up? Uh, yeah
that's me, I'm the first one to do it I guess. I can't believe you're my neighbor,
that's crazy! well, you probably have questions about life up here, right?
Anything you want to know? Uh, yeah, one actually, uh, what happens when we
fall? what is the punishment for missing a jump at the pro level? You go down a
level. If you miss a jump, you'll be a noob and you'll have to beat the course
again. Okay, so I can never fall, noted. So, who are the people above us then
what's above a pro? It's probably best I just show you. Here, come with me.
My neighbor started telling me everything there was to know about
parkour civilization. He brought me back to the parkour Temple where all the
statues were. He explained how parkour civilization starts at the noob level and
at level two you become a parkour pro then there were the parkour masters. If you
were lucky enough to rank up you get gold boots and you become a master. My neighbor
said that parkour master's never come down to the pro level but if they do ever come
down its a parkour pros nightmare. He said the parkour masters are ruthless
and then he walked over to the largest
statue, the one with the diamond boots. He said that this was the parkour champion
He said that most people down here don't even believe the champion is real but the
stories say, there can only be one parkour champion. Whoever that was lives at the
top of parkour civilization
