The first night of our 48 hour overnight exploring challenge was spent in a very old asylum for the criminally insane.
RiddimRyder Photography, Carlo Paolozza and I hit the road and met up with ddoggVlogs for a weekend of exploring and shenanigans and more laughs than you can imagine.
We arrived late at our first location, knowing access and entry was tricky and very risky, but once we were in, we were in and we were ready to spend the night.
We spent much of the night exploring and navigating the dark and haunting hallways and tunnels of an abandoned insane asylum, one with stories of abuse that will make your skin crawl. We awoke with the rising sun after an absolutely freezing night of very little sleep and being constantly woken by sounds that none of us could explain.
We shook off the cobwebs (literally) and started our explore, until somehow the lone security guard outside was somehow onto us.
She, determined to find us, We, determined to not be found played a classic game of cat and mouse...and the explorers came out on top.
Enjoy part 1 of the 48 hour challenge and stay tuned for part 2 where we spent the night in an abandoned jail.

the difference in some of the different
cells so like I'm gonna hit pause and
then when I come back you're gonna look
the other way so if you check this room
out this room's got that green paint and
then brown tiles it doesn't look like a
very nice room doesn't look very
comfortable but that's a difference of
one room and we're going to see another
cell and then you got this cell which is
a little bit bigger and it doesn't have
the tile and it's all green they all
have a big window every cell the place
that we've seen so far has a big window
so let's see a different cell so here
we're on the main the main corridor of
all the cells so here's another one this
one's got blue still pretty small not
quite as high as the other one
I think it's actually green
and then this one's yellow no sink this
one has no sink no nothing
come over here this one's got sink

got another green cell then you got a
sort of a pink pinkish cell so they're
