A man in a ninja mask is questioned by security guards for trespassing in the basement of Toronto's 'Royal York Hotel'. The night belongs to the urban explorers, a worldwide movement of hardcore adventurers, and thanks to web-sites like 'Planetjinx' and 'Infiltration', their numbers are skyrocketing.
Urban exploration is dangerous and illegal.
It's a compulsion that drives young men and women out of the warm safety of their homes, down into the uncharted wilderness beneath the city streets. The very places most despised by decent people, storm drains, rooftops, and sub-basements, are irresistible to urban explorers. They move easily through safety barriers and security perimeters, heedless of warning signs, alarms and armed guards. They're as much at ease smoking a cigar in your hotel suite as climbing the walls of a ventilation shaft. There's scarcely a university campus in North America that doesn't have its own crew, exploring the secret tunnels and off-limits rooftops.
