German athlete Jason Paul who started his free running at 14 has turned his journey to "Freeze running" in China's Ice City.

German athlete Jason Paul has taken his sport beyond its urban terrain as he put his free running skills to icy winter tracks in China's 33rd edition of the annual Harbin International Ice and Snow Sculpture Festival.

A video released by Red Bull Media House shows the free runner vaulting, climbing, and performing a variety of acrobatic stunts, bouncing off obstacles on his path as he runs along cathedrals and bridges made of ice.
