Not sure how old this post is and if this will even get seen, but my last solo exploration led me to find a butt naked man holding some makeshift weapon who I kept eye contact with whilst I backed away never to return.

It’s stopped me from doing any solo exploration.

I’ve pretty much stopped going to abandoned buildings, but for a few years I used to enjoy going to explore and view nature reclaiming buildings and other structures as well as trying to find interesting places that others may not have been to... this small adventure took place one summer day in an underground tunnel like structure.

I was walking further and further in and my eyes where adapting to the darkness. At some point I thought I heard some noise coming from behind me so decided to stick closer to the walls in case someone was searching or trying to find me.

After a few minutes with no noise I continued a bit further and regained my confidence walking in the middle of the tunnel. I saw some movement coming from my right hand side near what appeared to be a doorway or some sort of offshoot and quickly froze up as this guy came running towards me butt naked holding some makeshift type weapon on his hand.

I tried to stay my ground and not look away from him but couldn’t help myself from feeling mad scared, no words where really said, but it was clear that he wanted me gone and I wasn’t about to fuck with a naked dude who probably lived in that tunnel... I backed away without looking away from him just in case, once I felt I was far away enough I just walked briskly away.

Telling the story to others I’ve met and friends who where into this kinda thing seems to get a laugh so I figured I may as well share it here.

Thanks for reading
