So me and my friend made our first Urbex video when we explored the grounds of Camelot theme park. We recorded and uploaded to youtube and if you could please check it out
it would mean alot to us to know what you guys think. If anyone would like some tips on how to get past security and try it yourself please do message
Back in July, during my time in Lithuania. I went to climb the tallest structure I'd ever been on, a radio mast standing at around 240 meters.
"The station is owned and operated by Lithuanian National Radio and Television Centre." I was told it wasn't in use, so we dodged a motion sensor and began our climb.
I streamed the full climb and made this edit from he footage.
Hope you enjoy.
Hello everyone we was leaving park hall hotel and we come across this beautiful building not sure how many posts have been made on this but it’s a really nice building.
Here's some explores from Vilnius, the capital of Lithuania. Was there visiting for two week in July.
We had a look at a soviet era factory, finding some documents and a few tunnels. We later found our way into an abandoned school, that had just started being renovated. Almost getting caught by security turning up to patrol, good eyes and timing saved the day.
Hope you enjoy.
I recently edited this footage that I took back in the early 90s. Quality is pretty poor but watchable. I think it was still owned by the Ministry of Defense before the National Trust took over and did their usual "thou shall not visit in case thou should stand on an ant" BS.
Hi everyone, this is my first time posting, so new to all this. Recently We took a trip & a good light to the 501 Yard long Spinkhill Tunnel in Derbyshire. The 501 yards long tunnel was opened by the Lancashire, Derbyshire and East Coast Railway (later part of the Great Central Railway and subsequently the LNER ) on 21 September 1898. It was the only tunnel on the Beighton Branch (occasionally referred to as the "Sheffield Branch") which ran north westwards from Langwith Junction to Beighton Junction. The line through the tunnel was closed on 9 January 1967 and was subsequently lifted, though tracks almost to the tunnel mouth from the north remained in use until 1984 for wagon storage and shunting at Westthorpe Colliery, Killamarsh. Hope you enjoy
In this one, we scramble down, then up, 660 feet cliffs to explore the abandoned coastal alum mine tunnels of Loftus in the UK, dating back to the 1650s! We also look at a near by tram tunnel.
Alum is a chemical used principally in the textile industry for fixing dyes. It is not found in a natural state in Britain but can be manufactured from some types of shale. During the medieval period in Britain alum was imported, mostly from Italy. Domestic production began in the north of England in the early 17th century. The industry flourished in the north for 200 years until the mid-19th century when it was overtaken by new techniques using shale from coal mining, whilst after 1880 aluminium sulphate replaced alum for most industrial purposes. The last English aluminium works (at Goole) closed in 1950. Approximately 50 alum sites have been identified in England. Most were along the Cleveland and Yorkshire coast. Other early sites are known on the south coast, particularly in Dorset and Hampshire. Alum works comprise two main monument types: the quarry where extraction and initial processing took place, and the alum house where final processing took place. Alum shale was extracted from quarries sited on steep inland hillsides or coastal cliffs. Initial processing on the quarry floor consisted of calcination by burning shale in clamps, and the production in settling pits of alum liquor. The liquor was transported to processing works in sealed casks or through wooden channels known as liquor troughs. Larger quarries possessed inclines and haulage gear and sometimes harbour facilities. Stores, workshops and laboratories can also survive. Evidence of secondary industries such as epsom salts and iron silicates production is also preserved at alum works. The alum industry was the first chemical industry in Britain. Its quarries and works illustrate the early stages of the industry and the technological advances through the period known as the Industrial Revolution. The alum industry also offers important information about wider changes in social and economic conditions during this period. The large scale of the industry's workings also mean that its remains are today a major component of coastal landscapes.
