It seems an almost inevitable law of mobile gaming. If you have a game that manages to crack the iTunes Top 10, you’re going to have some awesomely creative fans with a camcorder that try to recreate your game in real life. We’ve seen in countless times with Angry Birds. The folks behind Fruit Ninja even made their own real life videos. And now? Now the folks at Inner Light Media have created an homage to the chart-topping freemium running app Temple Run.

What’s neat about this real life interpretation is that it isn’t just some guy running around with a camera chasing behind him, but that they’ve managed to add coins and power-ups via CGI, and even have a bit of light parkour happening too!
If you’re thinking of trying this at home, be sure to watch this video to the end to find out how wrong things can turn when you’re snagging power-ups in real life. That being said, there’s no reason you shouldn’t get off your couch and try making your own Temple Run video. Like the developers have said on the game’s official Facebook fan page, “We love seeing this kind of stuff, keep it coming!”
