About Me

*Frequently Asked Questions*


Q: Who in the hell are you guys?
A: Just one person, really. My name is Eli and I am an elephant-urban-explorer from Serengeti, Africa. I do have two close friends who will assist me with this page. They will handle all emails, post all photography, and make any changes to the page that I feel are necessary. You may contact Ben & Justin with any questions or comments about the page. They are featured above.
Q: So, are you like some kind of sex symbol or something?
A: Not really.
Q: Are you seriously an elephant?
A: Yes.
Q: You say you are an elephant. How in the hell do you explore undetected in so many awesome places?
A: I have abilities that you will never understand.
Q: What are your favorite places to explore?
A: Pre-1930's buildings and such. Skyscrapers and hospitals. Prisons and Jails. Anything that looks like it took longer than a month to build.
Q: Do Ben and Justin go with you on your excursions?
A: Absolutely not. That would be crazy.
Q: What type of camera do you use?
A: I alternate between a Nikon D80 and a 35mm Nikon FG.
Q: Am I going to go to hell?
A: I'm not sure. Probably.
Q: Don't you ever wonder if what you are doing is illegal and/or morally right?
A: I am very careful and cautious not to explore places that I think may still be in use in any way. I do not take things from the buildings that I explore. I never vandalize and I always leave things the way that they were. I enter a building only when I know that I will be able to leave it in the exact same condition that I found it in. I do this out of respect for anyone who may still own the property. The idea that abandoned buildings are there for our taking is silly. Somebody probably still owns it and probably wouldn't come to your house, kick the window in, pee in the corner, and then leave with an object that they found fascinating.
Q: Who in the hell do you think you are?
A: I'm just a normal elephant with nothing to lose.
Q: Why is it that you list all your excursions by state? What if we want to go there? What about the spirit of UE?
A: If you are curious as to an exact location you may confer with Ben and Justin via email. After the verification of your coolness you may or may not be allotted with the relevant information. I do not believe in the tooth fairy (although Nessie is probably real) and I also do not believe that acting as though I am on some moral high-ground entitles me to immunity from the law.
Q: Are Ben and Justin really that handsome?
A: In a vacuum, do all objects fall at exactly the same rate?
Q: OMFG! How can I talk to Eli?
A: Hold your horses for Christ's sake...
