Real-Life Rocky Balboa Knocks Out Philadelphia

The New York-based comedy troupe Improv Everywhere has brought Rocky to life. The group took to the streets of Philadelphia to reenact the famous training montages from Rocky and Rocky II.

In the scene above, Rocky (played by comedian Dan Black) runs through the streets shadow boxing, eventually making his way up the stairs of the Philadelphia Art Museum with a mob of 100 kids.

The video is episode one of a new series called "Movies in Real Life," which will be released every Tuesday this fall.

"This is the first time we're trying a weekly series, so we're really excited about it," Improv Everywhere founder Charlie Todd told Mashable.
