Not sure if this is the right forum or not, but I just had to share this video.

What's so cool about it is that it's just real. No set ups, no film crews, no scripts, none of that. The danger is real, the locations are real. Oh yeah, and the cops are too.


I gotta tell ya, those feelings of making discoveries and avoiding being seen while sneaking around somewhere you aren't supposed to be are some of the most exhilarating ever! :awesome:

Related (but unimportant) Personal story:
Unfortunately the city I live in was only built up within the last few decades, so I don't get the chance to do this kind of adventuring very often, but there was one fun instance where I was in a cave beneath Jerusalem, Israel and I climbed up a 10-foot or so wall with no gear and from there headed down a tunnel that seemed to be unexplored. The focus LED on my DSLR was my only source of light. I went through the tiny cave for a short distance, and then came to a spot where I could see a tiny shaft of light.

...I'd found a service entrance.

Yeah, that was kinda not as interesting as what the guys in this video found :yawn:
It did give me the same thrill up to that point, though!


Feel free to share your thoughts on this video and any similar experiences you may have had!

i love his attitude of 'i don't think we should do it. but let's anyway...'

there's a phrase that i can't remember that is basically about finding beauty in the least likely of places, and that's exactly what that was all about. i love the idea of finding things like that in an urban setting. i imagine the feeling of just doing those things would be absolutely thrilling, and i'd love to one day get into filming something like that.
