Favorite Answer

Results may vary considerably depending on the depth of the sewer and whether it is an abandoned sewer or an active sewer.  You could break a leg, you would probably get wet, and their is the possibility of H2S gas.  If there is H2S gas, you could die from asphyxiation. It could also be oxygen deficient.  This does not include the possibility of being stuck by a discarded needle, or contracting some disease.  I'd look for another thrilling activity to pursue.
