  • In this video, we head inside two abandoned swimming baths in England, offering dated architecture as well as functioning electricity! Both buildings were also alarmed, hence the brief explorations that we have combined to make a full video.

      You would still need the master code to input before you can silence the alarm and clear down the triggered zones.
      Even if you isolated the power via the circuit breaker the unit will have a battery backup which could last anywhere between an hour to three hours.

    You guys do a great job and your interest in these abandoned buildings to the point that you actually do a bit of research into its history etc, makes me wonder why you don't contact the owners of the buildings in order that you can have as much time as you need without having to keep an eye out for security staff or worse, being arrested by the police for breaking and entering. You are clearly not "Yobs" with a spray can. Can you and other explorers not get together and create some-sort of registered organisation or group where you can all keep yourselves on the right side of these councils and owners and at the same time be safe enough to continue making your videos. Last thing we would want is to see you in a not so abandoned police cell!!! ha ha ha Stay safe.

    • @philiptownsend4026
      @philiptownsend4026 ปีที่แล้ว

      I Don't think they are committing any crime if they just walk in an open unlocked door or window, so it is not breaking and entering. Possibly trespass but that is a civil matter not a crime.
      And if nothing is stolen or damaged (Urban Explorers don't do that), I believe there is a code of honour, what can they really be accused of?
      Enter and leave quietly, leave nothing and take nothing.
      I wouldn't want to do this in USA though - too many guns with irrational nutters holding them, including police.
