I live 2km away as the bird flies. There is this rail tunnel under the Detroit River for trains which is perfect for smuggling, sneaking into the country etc. I took my first trip when I was 12. Its very easy to sneak across. All you have to watch out for are trains. There is not enough room to get out of the way of a train. Every year a few people die. Just a few months ago a Pakistani fellow got squished trying to sneak into America. People from all over the world use this tunnel. You should also watch out for Border Guards and Mounties on the Canadian side and the US Border Patrol and sometimes the US Army on the Yank side. If you are ever in Windsor the tunnel is on Riverside Drive near the Casino. You can see it from the road. Its railroad tracks. I recommend you hop on a rail car on the trip accross and hide behind/in the cargo. I've heard rumours of shots being fired. Oh, and don't forget a gas mask. It is a long (almost 1km) rail tunnel.
