Freight hopping is when you sneak onto a fright train and then ride it wherever it happens to be going. Try not to be seen though because it's illegal (obviously). Also try not to slip and fall under any wheels because 15,000 ton freight trains are pretty unforgiving.
I've done three freight hopping adventures. I'm by no means any sort of expert but because the videos I made of each adventure have become pretty popular a lot of people presume I'm some sort of full-time hobo. No. I'm not. I just did it a few times and made some fun videos about the experience.
Don't copy me. Or do. Whichever. I'm just some guy on the Internet.
