This documentary is a fascinating look at the world of the urban explorer: sneaking into sewers, climbing down into abandoned buildings, poking around in ruined hospitals. From small group explorations in Iowa to a large urban exploring conference in Glasgow, Scotland, “Urban Explorers” shows us the ups and downs of this strange passtime. There are the thrills of seeing views and locations few people ever see anymore but there are also the fears of being arrested, suspected of terrorism, or even dying in an accident while exploring. This is a film not to be missed by anybody who has even a glimmer of interest in the subject.
