For the unfamiliar, there is a subculture of urban exploration surrounding "draining", the act of exploring storm drains and (sometimes) sewers. It can be a fun adventure at times as many drains have large "features" such as massive underground rooms, historic brickwork, cave formations (e.g. stalactites), water storage tanks or waterfalls. Most of the time, they don't even smell that bad and you can get some cool photos. You also often will find oddly-shaped mushrooms growing out of the walls of the tunnels. This is most likely just some group of explorers who were not so careful to observe rule #2: don't be seen entering/exiting the drains. Rule #1 is "when it rains, no drains."

Two of the guys in the video exit the hole with a ~ 32"x16" metal sieve.
They appear to be panning for gold in shit, not exploring.

In books, movies and videogames people spend a considerable amount of time in the sewers. In fact, I’m pretty sure they spend more time in the sewers that in standup meetings. Reality mirrors fiction. Speaking of which, some getting acquainted with sewers may be in order for the upcoming AI apocalypse.

It's just the CHUDs. They mean you no harm if you leave them be.
