How tempting is it to investigate when you see certain abandoned buildings or abandoned property? For me, this has happened quite frequently. On a couple of occasions, the burning desire joined forces with me actually parking the car and sitting there cogitating about what might happen if go through with it. THAT'S how tempting it is for me. Alas, I've never done it--either because my better angels pulled me back legal issues and all or brief flecks of cowardice property stability should always be a concern --and life has gone on.

I'm always under the assumption some of these adventurers have gotten permission, but sometimes, neither they say they have nor is it indicated in the description below the video.
