The Underground of NYC

During winter break, I got into the fun habit of checking NPR for articles and more multiple times each day. One of the stories, "Into the Tunnels: Exploring the Underside of NYC"  was very fascinating, if not all that practical or 'educational'. It told the story of a couple of underground adventurers, Steve Duncan and Erling Kagge, who spend a lot of time exploring the depths of cities, journeying through subway tunnels and sewers, letting neither waste, cockroaches, nor the law stop them.

Anyway, it eventually led me to a video on vimeo which a young film student, Andrew Wonder, made on one of his trips with Steve Duncan in NYC. It is just so cool, man!
