 |  | Chainlink Fences: One solution.
< on 12/4/2005 9:46 PM >
|  | | | Oftentimes when exploring you will have to deal with a chainlink fence.
Oftentimes these fences are equipped with barbed wire, razor wire, et cetera.
Fortunately, oftentimes the people installing these fences do a half-assed job and dig the fence only about a foot into the ground. Thus, there is an easy method for getting past the fence in a nondestructive manner.
It is recommended that you bring a plastic garbage bag containing a spade and four to six tennis balls. The tennis balls need to be prepared ahead of time: first spraypaint them black. Cut a hemispheric slit from the top to the bottom, trying not to breath in the stinky air contained within tennis balls. Top and bottom are arbitrary of course; just cut half of the ball.
Dig a tunnel, scooping the dirt into the empty garbage bag you brought your digging kit in. What you will see at the bottom of your tunnel is the pointy spikes on the bottom of the fence. Simply slip the tennis balls over these. Wriggle through your tunnel, leaving the bag & spade within an arm's reach. Put the spade and tennis balls into the bag of dirt and place bag in hole; throw some dirt from digging on top of bag. If there are leaves/sticks around, put these on top of dirt. REMEMBER WHERE THE TUNNEL IS!
Go have fun onsite. Your tunnel is well hidden, awaiting your return.
On your way out, move dirt, leaves and sticks aside. Pull out bag. Wriggle through tunnel. Remove tennis balls and spade from bag. Dump dirt back into tunnel. Pack down tightly, cover over. Put implements back in bag. Voila! Just like new; you didn't damage a thing. Nor did you have to bring the spade in, meaning one less piece of sketchy evidence.
Happy exploring!

| | | | How long does it take to dig a tunnel large enough to fit through? Seems as though is could take a while, if it didn't collapse under its own weight first.

Correct; since the tunnel will presumably be covered whilst you are inside the building, and since you will carefully replace the dirt when you leave, there is no reason to be stealthy about it. That's why this method pretty much rules.
One thing I forgot to mention is that, if the dirt is highly compressed, you may need to hide some of it nearby. The digging process makes the dirt more voluminous, and you don't want security (if there is any) investigating that weird mound that wasn't over there yesterday...

| | | | I would rather just hop the fence, saves time/equipment. I guess if the fence was incredibly high you could do this, but usually I just climb and deal with the barbed wire.
On the other hand, some people suck with barbed wire, my brother is one of them.

Yeah, if hopping's an option, hop! In case of razor wire, squarelinks, 10'+ high, et cetera, I've found this technique useful several times... you'd be surprised at the fact that a company willing to shell out for razor wire would be unwilling to dig the fence at least a yard into the ground or set it in a uniform concrete base...
Cheers.

| | | | We have all heard stories about super-high impossible fences. This might be a good technique to bypass that.
although I have never run into a fence I couldn't get over or around.
I would add one thing to your method. Cover the hole with leaves and debris after you get through. Its better if it is not found, and maybe you could re-use it later.

| | | | Ill tell you what also works, its just two adjustable wrench, you can laterally unbolt the fence and, when your done bolt it back up. Like Down at the bottom sideways poll where it meets the post.

A lot of better fence installations fuse the fence to the poles. However, I think this is a great idea - I don't usually bring a wrench, since it could be viewed as a B&E tool, but it's something that could just be stashed near the fence after unbolting it, so...
Just to reiterate what BrenT said: when you're done, bolt it back up. 
Happy trails.

| | | | I personally think this is destruction of property and can bring much more legal consequences against you. I have devised a simple math formula to determine your legal consequences:
Trespassing 1 now marked as U
Digging a tunnel 10 now marked as C
Damage to a property 10 now marked as K
Someone getting hurt because of the tunnel 5 now marked as E
Disrespect for a property due to tunnel 5 now marked as F
Moral implications of this 3 now marked as D
Now lets say I was just trespassing you get an A, but if you also dig a tunnel to get into a location instead of climbing a simple 12 foot fence you are: disrespecting property(F), trespassing (U), digging a tunnel (C), damaging the property (K), someone may get hurt (E) and the moral implications of this (D)
This tells us that if you explore you get an: A
This also tells us if you dig a tunnel to get in you get: FUCKED
Now on a scale of 1 to 100, 1 being slap on wrist and 100 being harshest punishment here is the math:
Exploring: 1 -- no worse than a parking ticket
Tunneling: 1+10+10+5+5+3=34 about the same as grand theft auto.
Next time you suggest something so illegal and immoral to the honorable, respectable and law abiding UE community please write a short disclaimer so no one gets in trouble with the law without knowing that they are doing something illegal.
Edited:
I think the bolting idea is by far faster, better and less harmful. If you leave the tool outside the property your much less likely to have legal consequences and should be the only method used if you cannot overcome a chainlink fence.
Edited:
This was also brought to my attention that often you can avoid modifying the fence or area surronding it in general if you climb in a corner of the fence since razor is usually easy to bypass there, or use the gate since they are usually meant to keep cars out and have enough space under them or between them. Usually the only places that lockup all of this are extremely vital and remote military bases which in general are not worth trespassing.

| | | | xen0,
I made this post to explicate a method I have used successfully in the past. The thread in the other forum was ended because it was full of childish nonsense; I fully admit that I am to blame for this as well. But let's not bring that into the forum that is meant to be instructive. I have no further wish to carry on this discussion; any further posts meant to goad me into some inane flame war will be ignored. Let's both act like mature adults, OK?
Happy tunnels.

| | | | I understand and I am saying there are better methods with less legal implications, having tools even a swiss army knife is pretty bad if your caught. Another trick often used by explorers is pushing a gate slightly open and placing a rock or a stick in it to give you time to go through, this OFTEN works since most things bend slightly. For anyone who has been to the malt plant and used square rocks or bricks to prop the door open knows what I am talking about.
If I have time ill post pictures of this method its very effective.

| | | | Or you could just pull the edge of the fence up and go under. As someone who has mastered many fences, I cant imagine digging a tunnel. That seems really really time consuming and obvious. I mean, what fence is totally unclimbable. (beside taunton). you might have to cut the little tie thing. If you're all ethical, you can bring some wire and put it back.

... I've also never seen a hole in the dirt big enough for someone to crawl under a fence, without the fence being cut and pulled back a least a little.

| | | | Agreeing with the above, it's much easier to climb if you take your shoes off - your toes will get far a better grip on the chainlink fence, and you'll get over, no problem.
I will live forever, or die trying. |
