| | | One time I took my mom to explore a double storm drain by entering into an outfall with duo 6 foot RCP tunnels with water rushing out of them. We had to be careful walking into the tunnels because it was "SLIPPERY" outside of the tunnel where the rushing water was coming out of. As I walked up the tunnel, apparently my mom couldn't keep up with me because I am a fast walker and she didn't have a light, so I had to stop and wait for her (LOL). when we were switching to the next tunnel she slipped and fell in the fast moving water at the outfall, her sunglasses fell off her head and got washed down towards the Mississippi River and I ran and got them for her. Surprisingly enough I didn't slip and fall on the way there but when the glasses got down to the Mississippi River, they were floating around in a circle without sinking right at the bottom of the slope of the drains, so I was able to grab them easily. My mom did hit her head when she fell but she seemed to be fine but I still felt bad because she fell. With that being said, whoever goes into storm drains, be very careful when walking in drains because you never know if it will be slippery or not. Usually for me, concrete tunnels are usually not too slippery but brick tunnels for me are almost always slippery if you are not careful when walking in them and these tunnels are concrete but the actual tunnels we were in weren't slippery at all but the area outside of the drains were and I warned her to "BE CAREFUL WHEN WALKING INTO THE DRAINS BECAUSE THEY MIGHT BE SLIPPERY". I don't know if she enjoyed exploring the drains with me or not because she complained a lot, so it's hard to tell. Being as my mom used to be an urban explorer back in her day, I figured it would be fun to take her on my adventures and as it turned out to be rather amusing and it was even funnier to see that she is scared of spiders (LOL). I think if your parents are interested in what you are doing, I say bring them along because you never know it they will like it or not. I have a young niece who seems to be interested in my storm drain exploring and I would like to bring her some time.
