Drug dealer turf markings? Tributes to murdered friends? Tokens of lost virginity? Or just aggressive littering?
The Mystery of Flying Kicks – directed in 2010 by Australian self-confessed ‘sneaker head’ Mathew Bate – seeks the truth behind an urban phenomenon at which most people have wondered and around which an entire subculture has grown up. Sez he:
In an effort to get to the truth once and for all we asked the people of earth to help us solve this mystery. Using an on-line call out and a phone message bank, this documentary was made entirely from donated photographs, phoned-in theories, video, vlogs, and animation.
Ah here.

US 800m silver medalist Nick Symmonds dedicated his medal to his gay and lesbian friends and called for lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender equality.
“As much as I can speak about it, I believe that all humans deserve equality as however God made them,” he said to R-Sport. “Whether you’re gay, straight, black, white, we all deserve the same rights. If there’s anything I can do to champion the cause, I will, shy of getting arrested.”
“I respect Russians’ ability to govern their people. I disagree with their laws.”
Impressive.
But he seems to be carrying a lighter lunch than Rob, in fairness.
