Caught by security at the Ford Steam Plant: Urban Exploring Minnesota (S2-EIII)

In this video, we explore a massive 1920's steam power plant that was once used to generate electricity for the site of the former Ford Assembly Plant nearby. This was an exhilarating experience to say the least, but unfortunately we crossed paths with the owner when we were wrapping up our exploration....

    Obviously this exploration didn't go according to plan, and a lot of things didn't work out the way we wanted to. The gopro footage of the encounter with the owner was lost unfortunately, so all we had to work with was the video from the 80D. The voice over quality wasn't the greatest either, but we're still trying to get better at repairing audio and delivering you the best experience we can. Thanks again for everyone that tuned in to the season finale, we're gonna take a bit of a hiatus to improve our skills, but we'll be back with some amazing content for all of you to enjoy. Thanks again for all of your support.

    Up on top of the North Boiler, (#1) there is a large valve from a 1935 steam line addition. It has its country's of origins symbol raised on the valve body on the west side...a huge swastika.

    I see that a part of India puts their holy symbol, (Swastika) on machinery. I never could understand why Germany thought that symbol was who they were. I never saw a Church with that symbol and not the Greek Cross or a similar Christian Cross. I noticed Catholic Hospitals, fall to Protestant to Espiscopal to Shands. No where to bring me since I am a Catholic and they have intruders with the Pope at the Vatican no longer connected, they no longer have any original charter to get involved with us.

    I was either in this building in 1998 or the one that is pictured at 8:42, good times, not recommended to go at night as the floors were rotted/ gaping holes and such, how did you guys deduce that he was the owner as opposed to a random dude asking you one question?

    Good question! We lost all of our GoPro footage of the exploration and the encounter. (Which is why this entire video is strictly DSLR footage) It got corrupted during a file transfer from the SD card, which is unfortunate because it was a funny/tense situation in hindsight. After exiting the building, he told us the cops were on the way, and that he was the owner and asked us to show him where we got in, where he then proceeded to start boarding up our entrance. He then angrily told us to leave immediately. Could it have been a random person lying to us? Possibly, but very unlikely, and we weren't about to stick around and call him on his bluff. Thanks for commenting, and thanks for watching!

    Saw your comment lmao guessing you got in anyway, you park in one of the parking lots right off the bridge you then walk on the side walk closest to the plant then on your right where the plant is you’ll see a graffiti’d door it’s locked you go to the door and to the right there’s a fence with a whole go through the hole and climb onto the side of the building then boom you’re basically on top of it and walk across the little bridge and you’re on the main plant.
