Johnson can be seen scaling a fence near a "No Trespassing" sign before sprinting along a hallway up a set of stairs before looking down at the pool several stories below.

He then sprinted down a set of stairs to a larger outdoor area overlooking the pool, climbed over the railing, and sprung off of a ledge into the water.

Upon emerging, Johnson continued his frantic pace while climbing a fence surrounding the pool to escape to a nearby beach.
