Like some of the other youtubers, I often purposely go to places just to see the toilets. This often involves having to ask for information or making friendly conversation so that people do not think you are strange for going into building after building and walking into the restroom. Out of courtesy, I always try to wait until the bathroom is empty before I video a toilet. However good as my intentions are, I have run into embarrassing and dangerous situations while trying to find old toilets! Here is one such example:
This past summer, I was visiting a college that was under contruction and renovation. I was walking around, going into different buildings and seeing if I could find any really old toilets. I then came across the dining hall, which was built in 1922. The possibilities of finding an old original toilet were great, as many of the toilets at this college had not been replaced. I walked in, and the dining hall was dark. I couldn't find the restrooms at first, but then I opened a huge set of double doors to find them! I walked into the restroom and found Cadets but with very old plumbing. I was dissappointed that I didn't find the original plumbing. I then left the restroom and tried to get back through the double doors. They were locked, and apparently had only opened one way. I panicked, because there was only one way in. I had visions of being caught in the dining hall by the police for trespassing! There was a set of stairs though, so I went down the stairs and found a door to the outside. There I found myself in the middle of a contruction zone, with a bunch of construction workers staring at me! I walked through this maze of construction and through the yellow caution tape to finally find my way back to the campus. I was much more cautious about going into empty buildings that have the lights off after that.
