If I may ask, why exactly is exploration such a problem? Besides the obvious issues like potential damage, safety risks, etc

Rumor Wonders of Life getting an attraction soon?

Because a) it’s in a backstage area and b) it’s being photographed. The company takes a very dim view of anyone purposely leaving a guest area without authorisation. And obviously since it’s private property their decision is final - which may be expulsion from the park, admission media revoked and/or a ban.
The bottom line is don’t do it.

True I suppose. Guess it's really just an elaborate security risk. It's weird how half the fanbase loves it, and half of it hates it
Security is obviously a huge issue too. Maybe I’m speaking from the company angle, but it is something that should be discouraged.
The half that love it should have someone break into their basement and record what they find and put in on YouTube.

And imagine if someone would get injured while doing that. It wouldn't look good in the public's view since most would think Disney didn't have good enough security to keep a "lost" person from getting hurt even though they got into places clearly not for the public. I do wonder if those pictures came from someone on the archival team though.
On that note, I'd like to see that piece of concrete with Figments "signature" but I'm afraid to take a look at it since it's "only 2 steps" backstage but completely accessible to anyone.
If I recall it was removed a while ago.

If it's the one that's literally in between Magic Eye and the Character Meet and Greet, then yeah, it's gone. I ended up mistakenly back there a while back, Cast helped me out though lol

From the descriptions, I always thought it was right around the red circle? Either way, that stinks.

There is no "suppose" about it, there are numerous examples of people getting banned from the parks for doing this.

My mind just went to the Figment meet and greet. Yeah, I don't even know what you're talking about there
Yes, it was there.

He was also banned from WDW property and subsequently arrested. I wouldn't recommend trying to copy what he did.

Such a statement demonstrates a profound misunderstanding of what urban exploration actually is.
And maybe it's your fault, Ellen might whack you on the head for leaving your basement unlocked.

When you're the leader, you don't have to follow.
If “urban exploration” is a euphemism for “trespassing”, then yeah, we get it. Do you?Such a statement demonstrates a profound misunderstanding of what urban exploration actually is.
