| | | I am at the scene of a house fire that occurred 3 1/2 months ago. There is yellow "Fire Line Do Not Cross" tape, I have entered over a downed fence. I am up on the second story which I've climbed a ladder to a window to enter and hear rustling in the yard. I think it's people but decide it's birds and squirrels. After 15 minutes or so, I descend the ladder to ground level, go around the back of the house and continue taking pictures, I think 15 to 30 minutes had elapsed. Eventually, I look up and see a police officer standing in the yard watching me. I nearly pissed myself. "What are you doing?" "Taking photographs". "I can see that..." Long story short, I was asked if I had any items from the house on me or in my car. I said no and I didn't. My backpack and cooler were searched and I emptied my pockets. I was escorted off the property "perp walk" style, my car was searched and they ran my driver's license. It seemed to take forever and I have never said "Yes sir" and "No sir" so many times. They informed me I was "criminally trespassing", that it was a Class B misdemeanor and I could go to jail. Thankfully, I was let go with a stern warning. "We know you, we know your car, if we catch you hear again, you're going to jail." I think I was just lucky!

Huh. I guess covid made me a trendsetter.

| | | I was trying to gain rooftop access to a large building earlier today, when I saw this on one of the upper- level walls near a door. Believing that I was safe so long as the door stayed shut, I climbed up the staircase. After a minute or so, the temperature seemed to rise. Remembering something I read on a thread around here about radio transmitters, I pulled up my pants leg, and found that my ankles were noticeably hotter than the rest of my leg or body. I immediately left the area, and when I looked at the building from an adjacent parking garage, discovered that I was within 20 feet of the base of a cluster of high frequency antennas, separated only by plaster and wood. Not sure if I was ever in any danger, but from my (limited) knowledge on FM and AM antennas, it was enough to make me leave and decide not to return. Also, the rooftop access door was padlocked anyway, so I couldn't access it even if there were no antennas.

| | | This one happened pretty recently, and it's the only time I've had a too close for comfort moment with security. My friends and I were exploring a hospital we had come across in the past month or so. For being closed as long as it has, you would never think it was shut down from the outside. Everything still ran internally like it would if it were operating, which of course makes the explore much more fun, but also brings an added security threat. Our first explore was, without a doubt, the best I've had yet. We essentially roamed the entirety of the place without any cause for alarm, and entered our second explore thinking the same would happen. It did not. There's an active guard(s) on duty I'm guessing at all times, but they aren't on the campus for most of the day, if that makes sense. They drive a pedophile-like van and park in front of the main entrance, so it's pretty easy to tell whenever they're at least watching. We knew that the first time too, but again, there was never any reason for concern. Upon getting back in this time, we quickly realized security took notice of someone being there and locked up nearly everything in terms of doors and access to specific doors we used. That was a bit alarming for me, mainly when I started noticing very particular doors locked up. That sucked, but I wasn't totally surprised. We huddle back into the chapel and plan something to try and hide from the only operating camera, right near the entrance. One of our friends carefully walks out to cover the camera (I wasn't a fan of this idea), and like five seconds, he comes back in maybe five seconds later going, "GUYS WE'VE GOTTA GO NOW." We panic and run down to the basement, which was our access to our only "clean" exit, but the building had a multi-layered basement that just got older and older the lower you got. As we were trying to not freak out too much, we suddenly hear this loud BANG from the floor above us. Again, that caught us off guard, but we knew we had at least a few more seconds to plan something out. Well, turns out our hearing was off or we undermined it, because next thing we know, there's another set of doors opening very violently just down the hall from the sliding doors we almost walked out to. The only reaction I had was instinctive, and that was to get the fuck out of there. I hauled my ass down the hall to our exit. For about five seconds, I was made of Jello because I managed to glide through this fence I had problems with before. Only one of my friends joined me in going out rather than deeper in the building, and we ran until we were off the property enough to get a view of our friends' potential exit. My other two friends hid behind a door in the lower part of the basement (somehow). The security guard apparently looked panicked/scared noticing all these open doors, but by the grace of God, somehow didn't see my two friends as he looked in the little window in one of the doors. They waited for him to walk further down, opened a window, and climbed out to safety. It wasn't ideal, but it definitely makes a good story now.
