A GANG of masked intruders broke into a disused power station and filmed a spoof pop video for a daredevil website stunt.
The group managed to get past round-the-clock security guards and gain access to Inverkip Power Station - before filming a cheeky two-and-a-half minute film inside the facility.
The video has attracted thousands of views on YouTube but the pranksters' actions have been slammed by power station bosses.
The footage shows the hooded group of eight men dancing around the control room waving instruction manuals and fluorescent safety cones before carrying out a conga along a gangway high in the power station.
The youngsters have also filmed themselves making their way across the roof of the station, with its distinctive chimney in the background.
In a final poke at the authorities, one man stands and 'rave dances' on top of two pipes with his face covered by a scarf.
A link to the video and information on the security breach has been posted on a specialist website 28daylater.co.uk after the break-in.
The forum allows people to post details and images of 'explorations' of deserted urban structures, such as disused army bases and derelict buildings.
Its members break into facilities like old hospitals, decommissioned military bases and closed leisure centres, taking pictures of their abandoned interiors and posting them for visitors to the site to comment on.
A ScottishPower spokesperson said the actions at the power station, where there was a gas explosion last month, said: "These people are lucky not to have been injured, and even more fortunate not to have been caught and reported to the police.
"We have a 24-hour security presence at Inverkip Power Station and will always report intruders to the police.
"As a disused industrial building, it is full of dangers to someone who doesn't know what they are doing, and this is why we have a strong security presence.
"It is not worth risking injury or arrest to try and gain access."
The incident comes after a group of youths calling themselves Urban Exploration posted footage of various break-ins at Inverkip Power Station.
Another man dressed up as an alien to pose in the power station control room in a separate post.
On the videos, the boys hide their faces with scarves while being filmed ignoring warning signs - including one cautioning against radiation - to take a tour of the site.
The station is owned by ScottishPower and was mothballed in 1988 as part of the strategic reserve, although demolition work is ongoing in a bid to create hundreds of new homes on the site.
The station has the third tallest chimney in the UK and is Scotland's tallest free-standing structure.
Bet that's a great moneyspinner for them

On what charge?
