Synopsis

Police think they are terrorists, but urban explorers are actually a growing subculture of adventure seekers from around the world who explore places where most people would never dream of going. They crawl though storm drains, wander around faded tourist attractions, and rappel into long-forgotten US government sites. Some do it for the thrill of being where they're not supposed to be and not knowing what lies ahead. Others do it to document history that is about to be demolished. The documentary follows them on their "missions" to abandoned mental hospitals, the former "House of the Future" in Orlando, and the catacombs in Paris. Will they get in? What will they find? Will they get arrested?
