I'm not one to really adventure into dark area's or well bug infected places...But I still do find it amazing and i wish i could fight off my lil fear of bugs and such to find awesome locations. Maybe I will. I do like adventures.
After watching Urban Explorers, I would love to make my own attempt at something similar. Recording random adventures and taking stunning photos of things most people dont get to see.
Urban Explorers is a documentary about a group of people who like to spend their free time crawling and climbing to places most fear to venture.
The movie focuses some what on a group of people who have meet online to talk about the places they have found and the gear they have bought to make their adventures easier and to point out places that other may find beautiful.
The movie is very amateur in its camera work and even with the editing, the music and cuts just seem like friends putting a little something together, which in this form Im fine with.
The best part of the film and the reason people should watch is because of the still photography the team has taken on their exploration. Its just creepy, dark and amazing.
They break up the scenes between groups of explorers to try and inform us of them and what they do different from some of the others but I didnt pay much attention to their stories of gear and life outside of exploring. I just cared about the places they found.
One place was an abandon rocket in the ever glades of Florida. It was the biggest rocket built by nasa and just to see that they left it without anyone protecting it or didnt even move it to a safer place.... But if they did that we wouldn't see it now would we?
They of course show us other locations from around the world including some caves under a city and some creepy old homes and other buildings. But Id rather leave the other places to your exploring.
Do you like to urban places? or do you stay home and enjoy movies about them?
