London 2012 Olympic Stadium
Right, i remember reading a report on this a long time ago. Before the games actually i think and i remember reading how ridiculous it was, with the working out of camera angles and whatnot to stay under the radar. I guess back then as it is now its not much more than a glorified building site, it is just a building site, just happens to be slightly different and maybe a little more sensitive considering what it is. I come up with the idea of doing this quite a while back but had to get a few more pressing things out the way first, plus this is gonna be around for a while before West Ham finally move in.
I invited The Raw who in turn invited Elliot5200 along, the idea that was in my head was just to recce the place and actually see if it could be done. You assume that security measures for somewhere like this are up to scratch but it turns out they could probably be just that little bit better as it wasn't long before we were standing on top of the stadium and it wasn't exactly a difficult thing to do. I had wanted to see inside this place for a very long time, i failed at getting tickets for anything at London 2012 in the stadium despite applying for nearly £1000 worth of tickets for the 100m final etc etc, in the end i watched some handball in the copper box which i left halfway through to watch the 100m final on one of the huge screens in the park with some sort of atmosphere.
The explore was fairly uneventful until an alarm was tripped and we left pretty quick sharpish without being caught, even managed to get the last train home. Was a fucking cracking night and its all about pissing about and having a laugh.
Enjoy
