Your channel is an awesome hidden gem! I saw this video about a month ago and have been watching all your videos since. Pls keep the storm drain vids coming!
How did you all enjoy the video? Let us know in the comments what you liked/didn't like, and what we can improve on! As always thanks for watching, and if you enjoyed it be sure to share the video and subscribe!
I'm thinking of using a scene in an underground storm drain, for a short story. How do you get in there, to begin with? What does the opening look like, and where do you find it? Thank you, if you see my question. : )
Always wish I had drains like this in my home town. Biggest we had was maybe four feet tall. No crazy structures, just a small tunnel running under a parking lot. Didn't stop us from adventuring down there though, made it maybe a quarter mile before the mud/water got too deep to continue (weird now that I think about it, since we were entering through the outfall). Great video, love to see more drains.
@@technicolorskies5432 You should always exercise a good level of caution wherever you go. In cities, you should also be aware of your surroundings, cameras, foot traffic, nosy neighbors and nearby businesses.
@@technicolorskies5432 A lot of the places we have previously explored have been rigged with cameras or motion sensors, so a lot of the city's top urbex spots are much more difficult to access now.
Just went there yesterday, I’ve only recently gotten into exploring all these places, so far we’ve hit up -United Crusher -Hamms Brewery -Umore park Loving these places with all the history behind it.
I was on the river nearing downtown st. paul yesterday. I passed a drain outlet that was massive and it was pouring out fast-moving, COOL, subterranean-cooled air. A companion mentioned an underground helix system, and I believe it may be connected to this drain. Do you have any idea if this drain terminates at the Mississippi heading downstream a bit before harriet island? I could see graffiti inside of it from my Kayak's vantage point, but it seemed like folks wouldn't be entering it from the river. Anyway, I'm too old/scared to do this myself, but I was just curious if i stumbled on the drain yesterday while on the river.
@@kaylabaker7410 urbex rules you wanna find it You r the one to look for it Under the assumption you dont make it a pain in the ass for future explorers to get to
What an absolutely Badass place to explore and hang out in. We have something very similar where I live except right in the middle of the main tunnel where it splits into 2 other tunnels, leads to a big open room that has areas to sit in. My friends and I have contributed to the epic looking graffiti and when we have the room all set up with candles, a stereo system, a grill to cook food and all of our other lighting, you’d think you walked into a cults den or a supervillains lair. What’s crazy is that no one has been down there since the last time my friends and I were. It would appear that the local people where I live are too busy playing video games, playing on their phones, watching Netflix, and Bullshiting on their computers to get up off there ass and go outside. So the underground tunnel system remains untouched until the next time we decide to go down and hangout.
A little strange that you would enter a storm water drain when it has water running down. Light rain was reported on October 26th, 2018. I suppose it is more interesting to see it functioning.
It was a light rain earlier in the day, but by the time we got there it was clearing up. It was a risk for sure, but one we were willing to take. Otherwise we wouldn't have entered. Good catch.
Going up and to the right at the top of the last staircase where you said theres no way up is kinda cool, if you make a return visit peep it out. Also hi Grant I think I'm gonna be your XC teammate this year lol
We're unsure of what the purpose of the chains are, but dropshafts are large vertical holes where other sewers that are generally higher up in the tunnel network spill their water into, where it then will eventually join the primary flow of water out of the main tunnel.
@@Cotton_Door42im not sure if this one uses a distribution system or syphon, but if it does when those reach a level like a dam they open and the entire system can be flooded in minutes. Water mains breaking are the worst thing that can happen the water resulting from it would reach the cieling and move at a inescapable speed. Always keep an eye out for manholes that go up or exits in case of one those happening.
Holy crap. Stairs and water. Sounds slippery and dangerous, let alone actually climb it while it's under water. Imagine the pressure of that water push you back and make you slip.... Careful
@@theworldofyesterday4151 i was literaly running with a massive sword, there was another construction worker a realy cool guy he said after 2 weeks we can go in without any problems but the one who was in the drain chasing us was an ass hole i bet he got something stolen from him
Hey would you mind possibly exploring the T.O.T tunnel of terrors i can tell u the entrance and everything its down by crosby farm regional park right by the missisipi off west 7th
I believe the graffiti could be referencing flouride, a chemical found in toothpaste and other dental care products, but also is used to treat tap water, and many believe it to have negative long term affects on cognition. I don't know if this was what the graffiti was hinting at, but it makes sense to us. Thanks for watching all the way from Sweden!
Any suggestions? Ours are 2000 lumens, and have very good range. We also occasionally employ an imalent DX80 which maxes at 32000 lumens. If you want all the colors washed out by harsh lighting, then by all means we can certainly oblige, but we aim to please with our video quality so bright light will overexpose everything making for an irritating viewing experience, feel free to pick your poison.

Yo I didn’t expect to see you here!
Lmao

i live in the area, one of the coolest bexs in st. paul, mini is cool too
Good quality! Fun to watch!! I’ve been in there many moons ago but it looks so different… I’ll have to check it out again. Thanks fellas !
How do you get their?
Pavel Matter cringe
You have no idea how much i love these videos
Also it's nice to see my graffiti still up
Thanks a million! We certainly try our best!
Alexander Rivas told the FBI
Nice
Dude I wanna visit, this looks great. Here in Detroit the mayor made graff a felony so we can't really do much. And we don't have stuff like this
been there a few times, thnks for bringing bak some memories.

8:08 Going up those steps makes me think how deep you guys were
Got a real nice one here! Vid quality and editing are excellent, subject matter is pretty damn interesting. Nice work! Keep it up! Stay safe.
thats a sick drain. way better than the drains under my city.
A Drainage with stairs, how Cool and watery. LOL!
i was here in december nothings changed too much but such a fun place to explore.

Glad you enjoyed. Just a tip, to find larger structures like this, travel to larger cities.
@@theworldofyesterday4151 Do you have to be more cautious in big cities? Both for police and the nefarious type.

Yeah it really sucks they tore down the tall stacks down in rosemount those we're the best part of u more park.
So fun to see this even though im not a local there, i`m from Norway. I really enjoy videos like this and you guys did a great job making it!
Thanks for the comment! It's always great to see some international viewers!

You should check out the amtrak station in minneapolis the abandoned 1
We'll look into it.
could you tell me the location pls?
@@kaylabaker7410 nope

Yo what’s the name of the spot? So I can get more info on it
The echo is cancelled at the harmonic node in the tunnel. Cool!

This looks amazing but I would probably be too scared to enter
21:12 I actually got one bar of service right there surprisingly enough. Down the rest of the tunnel is a dead end, but I didn't see for myself.
“If we go now and comply it will be easier for us” ^_______^ lol 😂 I want to go urbex with y’all in mn.

We have. About a year and a half ago.

Please tell me the location of this I would love to go into there
Well done video. Please do more drains.
I hope this is a good answer the mixture of dirt and clay is not actually dirt and clay it is iron oxidized bacteria but it is not harmful at all.
going to explore this soon, lmk if i should watch out for anything please
awesom exploring
super dangerous, but awesome, if you hear 3 metallic bangs then run. if you hear singular thuds it’s cars on manholes on the street and ur good
What is the drop shaft/ container used for??. I'm curious to know aswell as what the chains are for.
We're unsure of what the purpose of the chains are, but dropshafts are large vertical holes where other sewers that are generally higher up in the tunnel network spill their water into, where it then will eventually join the primary flow of water out of the main tunnel.
Wait so did they just ignore the construction guys?
What's the worst that could have happened in this entire exploration? What things did you plan for worst case scenario?
the worst thing is prolly just people, so you would need to bring weapons or something to protect yourself

There were so many opportunities for jump scares here if this was a found footage type thing
What light did you use on your camera
It was awesome staring at the floor the entire time while listening to you guys complain about how difficult everything was. 👍🏻
It was awesome to see you take the time to type this baseless comment. 👍
Holy crap. Stairs and water. Sounds slippery and dangerous, let alone actually climb it while it's under water. Imagine the pressure of that water push you back and make you slip.... Careful
The tag with the faces his tagger name is “efup”
this place is rigged with security me and my friend went in and we set of the alarm a construction guy chased us out threatened to call the cops
Yeah, just watched your video. Stay safe out there, they're cracking down.

Caden Harmsen what and cool
Caden Harmsen nice. And....
12:37 Is IOB
What is that stuff and what does IOB stand for? We see that stuff all the time in these storm drains and we were curious as to what it was.

We'll get to it eventually, it's been on our list for a long time.
The World Of Yesterday where is the entrance at?
it lowkey smells good down there
Can't argue with that😂
What does it smell like?
It can be stanky
Dank, like a musty basement or cellar in an older house, or like a limestone cave.
It's right by Marshall Ave
you hear some noise
halo theme starst
* distance screaming *
The banging sound is cars passing throw the manholes
wait u guys r dope
Next time bring water

Dead serious, do you want another adventurer partner?

FR BIG ups. "he-watch!" ITD crew Portland ,Or
Verry nice graffiti!

What is it with Americans and the need to graffiti everywhere, sure we get it in Europe as well but it seems more prevalent on your side of the pond
