I never did that, but played with sidewalk cracks while walking to school. My grandpa taught classic languages in college but was retired, so he taught me to count to 100 in Latin- I used that on sidewalk squares; by the time I reached that, I ran into a friend or two.
Rice university, Brown College Dormitory.Go from the North end of the third floor to the South ground level exit without touching the floor.Doorways were tough, stairwells were easy as you could use the handrails, hallways involved either chimneying or spread eagling between the walls.
Technically easier but more dangerous was climbing the outside of the 6 story Lovett College dorm.

Parkour!! ;-) But yeah, I did this when I was a kid, too… at least in places that had enough furniture to go across. LOL!

That is totally awesome. I want to try that! Although, at 6’4", that’d probably be a bit difficult.
