Bit random and I have looked on the internet but I can't find the name! It isn't MMA, the kickboxing type stuff, Karate etc but what's the martial art where people are doing utterly ridiculous flips resembling Mortal Kombat type shit! Jumping on walls and doing insane flips and stuff like that! Any ideas?

No I don't think so! That looks far too chilled and slow a friend at Uni did it but can't remember the name of it for the life of me. I'm talking like running at a big speed, doing about 5 backflips then some almighty backflip and twist in the air, all in a martial art kind of way.

Are you not thinking of Pakour which isn't a martial art but sounds very similar to what you're describing?

Nope, similar aspects, but not what this dude I knew did. Imagine mortal kombat and street fighter thrown in.
