Fuck, I still do
Close, but not quite the same. I used my fingers as the imaginary runner, leaping from thing to thing, riding wires, etc.
My childhood had some guy surfing on the power lines.
omg mine was inspired by Jet Set radio characters, grinding on the power lines, rooftops & whatnot ! quite close
SSX characters for me
I had Ben from Ben 10 mostly as xlr8 or heatblast if need flight. Picking up powerups like milestone or postbox… Lol
I had Sonic, from the Sonic Riders series. Seeing as Sonic could slide through some cable thing, made sense. Plus, like, Danny Phantom, maybe, and maybe others.
Skiing and jumping snow banks between driveways for me, and BMXing in the summer!
I always imagined a ninja doing flips and shit.
Mine was also a ninja that used signs as weapons. He’d pull them out of the ground and use them like swords.
Signposts with reflectors on them had special powers depending on the reflector color.
I’m glad this post exists, I thought it was just me.
I don’t recall imagining a particular character, just a humanoid figure running alongside and jumping over/dodging stuff.
Apparently this is one of those things that nobody ever talks about, but a lot of people did.
Mine was a cool skateboard dude who did the most amazing grinds and flips
hell yes! I’m my case, I rode a dirt bike just next to the highway jumping overpasses, dodging trees and whatever else I needed to do to keep pace with the car without crashing
Same!
Excite Bike pog
Yep, dirt bike for me too. Maybe it’s a lack of really creative imagination, but someone doing parkour couldn’t have kept up. A dirt bike makes sense because it could do highway speeds.
same here. For my dad it was skiing
Basically the same, but BMX for me lol
I only see my imaginary friend when I take too much Benadryl
Nightmare fuel, thanks
Actually less scary tbh 😄
hat man my beloved<3

I had a blade extending from my hand and cut down everything we passed like telephone poles and trees and mailboxes but I couldn’t let it touch metal so I had to angle my hand up if we passed anything like that.
Similar, I had lasers coming out of the side mirrors but would have to take my hand off the “button” so it wouldn’t cut down the signs, telephone poles, mailboxes, people, etc.
I hadn’t remembered this in years, but I always imagined myself out there like the Flash and how my older brothers were in the car watching me burn it up and being super impressed. I literally might not have remembered that during my entire adult life. Thanks for reminding me. Although I was more like seven at the time.
Nah, I just imagine the vehicles two lanes over is armed with lasers and if there’s a car in between us, it deflects the laser, otherwise, I lose 1 HP.
(The clouds that look like a face are deities watching you. Trees are sentient and waving at you)
Similar thing with walking. All moving cars have lasers and parked cars shield you from the lasers.
Also, the gap in between two squares of cement on the sidewalks have lava, make sure to not step over the gap.
I loved sonic riders, so instead of the Lil dude doing parkour, he had a hoverboard to do sick tricks Sometimes the Lil dude was tony hawks
I always wanted to go here:
Just follow them on and on until I reached some presumably paradisaical location.
Seattle has a park/trail like this
I can hear this photo. Take some fluorescent bulbs along and go at night.
It’s more fun in a high speed train
I just spent 15 minutes trying to figure out wtf anime that is on the top because the style looks like exactly what I’m into, and it turns out I’ve already seen it lmao
Bubblegum Crisis, it’s rad as fuck
From one of the best episodes IMO.
No, all of ya’ll are crazy. The dot of dirt on the window was the aiming device for a laser, and you had to use it to cut all the electrical wires without cutting trees or the poles, because those are wood and it would start a fire.
