Crack The Surface - Episode I from SilentUK on Vimeo.



claire posted this on my fbook wall. soooo interesting! makes me look at london in a whole new way.

Here's some guys in St. Louis doing the same thing: St. Louis Urban Exploration Society

Personal thoughts: I think that people like feeling a sense of control over their environment by knowing the secret nooks and crannies and being where they are "not supposed to be." There's an interesting explanation at the 5-minute mark in the video where a guy talks about how he read adventure novels when he was younger and grew up and found that he didn't have a way to be adventurous in his daily life. Urban exploration answered this for him.
