What is Parkour Civilization?
Parkour Civilization refers to the story of a “parkour noob” born into aMinecraftworld that is completely centered around the sport. It’s a series on YouTube made by a creator namedEvbo, who uploaded thefirst episodeof the series to YouTube on June 04, 2025.
The series followed one individual trying to navigate constant jumping challenges as a “parkour noob” in a bizarre world.
The premise of the series is that social hierarchies are based on how good you are at parkour, with “noobs” forced to live in an underworld of single blocks of land suspended in the sky, subsisting on just enough food to live as they train in hopes of making it to the “pros.”
The series made its way onto X in September 2024 as thousands of tweets appeared on the platform, resulting in a brand new meme.

What do the ‘No one jumps for the beef’ tweets mean?
“No one jumps for the beef” is a quote directly from the Parkour Civilization series and refers to the players getting different rewards for the jumps they do; they can do a one block jump for a raw chicken, or a one block vertical jump for some beef.
“Here in Parkour Civilization, no one chooses to jump for the beef. It’s better to be safe and do the block jump for the chicken than risk your entire life for just half a hunger bar more,” the main character explains in the series.
On September 26, X user@clown_depotreposted the first Parkour Civilization TikTok video along with the beef quote and gained over 14.4 million views in a few days. It also collected over 9,000 quote tweets full of memes and praise for Evbo’s storytelling.
