Adventures Through the Concrete Jungle

The football on offer this week has been pretty decent. Monday was Everton at Sunderland, Tuesday and Wednesday saw the return of the UEFA Champignons League, and Thursday provided no little entertainment in the form of the UEFA Cup Europa League. And this evening, another Premiership treat with Chelsea taking on Liverpool.

However, you might not be into football. You might be searching for something which gives you a bigger thrill. I’m not quite sure what could fit the bill ahead of a Feyenoord winner 12 minutes from time, but each to their own.
I am into football, but I’m still finding time to get through this amazing redbull.tv online series: URBEX – Enter At Your Own Risk.

I’m working my way through it at the moment, and finding that the sometimes mundane personal “I just want to challenge myself” narrative is more than balanced out with some amazing footage from some amazing places. The visit to the Baikonur Cosmodrome (Episode 5) was truly incredible.

I’m not sure how much of the footage is stage managed – it’s hard to work out how some of the third person stuff is filmed – but as I say, it’s free and it’s certainly worth a look if you can spare the bandwidth.
