I think you need to look up the meaning of the word " Secret ".
I was just thinking the same
😂😂 yes
I'd loved to "make up shit" for" the intiweb" Every one who needs to know, knows Down St.
They better had given this video the name "secrets americans do not know about" 😂
The tunnels were used to transport MALES💀
The traitors gate isn’t a secret. It’s very visible
Tourist attraction.....but shhhh, it's a secret 😂.
Haha!! You can't miss it.
Nothing of this is secret.
Also it's original name was the water gate, created to allow Edward I to come and go by Royal Barge, later the tradesman used it to bring supplies and later still it was used to bring prisoners to the tower, many of whom were charged with treason, thus traitors gate
There’s secret routes above ground known as “streets” that criss cross the city connecting secret areas known as “places”. Sometimes a secret liquid known as “rain” falls from the “air”. Man oh!
Holy shit dude, you should post a video, this sounds incredible. "Streets" you say, hmm. We must know more.
@@richardlangly4635 Some people actually walk along these 'streets' between places.
That's shocking! How do you know?
Seriously hilary, you swore not to tell anybody!
@@richardlangly4635They’re smothered with shit that should get your attention since you can’t put a sentence together without using that filthy word.
being from UK i know all these pretty common knowledge if you are a Brit
Y oughta see the secret below Heathrow landing area, equal to that above where the Tommy greenhouses used to be spread.
@@suzyqualcast6269have you been there?
No one cares
The Fleet isn’t the only river incorporated into the London sewage system. There’s at least a dozen of them.
They’re hardly ‘secrets’ - you can buy tickets to visit half of them
The tour of Down Street Tube Station is really cool - as is the ride on the Mail Train
So secret the Traitor's Gate has only been known about for around nine hundred years.
No secrets here.
Traitor's Gate is hardly secret,it's a tourist attraction highly visible from the street.🏴
about as secret as the combustion engine
There's a combustion engine? Goddam it! The secrets are tumbling out today!!!
Why do idiots make these videos without doing any research? Everything mentioned in this video is very well known they are so secret. The River Fleet is by no means a secret. The Fleet is a tributary of the River Thames, and flows six kilometers from its start as two streams in Hampstead Heath, past Camden Town, King's Cross, and Clerkenwell, to where it eventually empties into the Thames near Blackfriars Bridge.
I wonder if it follows Fleet St.
@@stevenandrewedwardsedwards3080 Wow how did you guess that?
@@stevenandrewedwardsedwards3080 It was from t is river that Fleet Street got its name as did Fleet Road in Hampstead.
Iiterally knew every single one of these anyway.
Number of people noticing a trend occurring here.

Mail rail train ride in London is super informative and cool! Highly recommend!
Interesting though none so far are secret
Lots of tube stations were used as shelter s in ww2.
No shite Sherlock.
And there’s a secret cabal running the city above these “secret” collection of tunnels:)
Tell me something I don't know.
Tell me something I not know please
There’s a secret overground location in London called the sky used to transport birds and rain
@@noobian3314 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@noobian3314 Also used to transport aircraft.
None of those are secrets!
Little-known facts……. That’s what you wanted to call this. They are not secrets or else you wouldn’t know them…… or they’re very badly kept secrets 😅
Yes… the traitors gate, very secret. It’s only visible to tourists and the general public.
I believe there are more covered over rivers feeding into the Thames, the Fleet is just the most well known.
About as secret as London itself....all of it
I was drinking water while only listening to the audio, and when i heard "mail rail" i spat it out so fast 💀💀
So thats why I keep finding screws in my garden
The picture used for the "secret" tunnel between parliament and south bank is actually the not so secret tunnel from the isle of dogs to Greenwich
He forgot the secret of the London Eye!
It’s a good job you have all these pictures of these “secrets”
As a South East Londoner, with an easy walk over any of all the bridges over the Thames, from Tower Bridge to Lambeth bridge, to reach Victoria in the west, Buck House, to St Paul's Cathedral and The Tower of London in the east.
Two of my daughters were born in St Thomas's Hospital with views over the Thames and is opposite Big Ben.
I can quite honestly say that these five London secrets are anything but Secrets!
Maybe we should remember that people from other countries can be easily surprised by things that we have simply taken for granted as being there
Well at least mail rail is a national tube train
I knew about all of these “secrets “ traitors gate was originally called trader’s gate because that is the way a lot of the supplies entered via the river
Fleet ain’t the only one there’s also the Westbourne
Doesn’t the Westbourne go over Sloane Square
@@AzzurroBall dunno I know it goes near Kilburn though
Secret! what secret, common knowledge I thought.
Not only are none of these secrets, most of these are marked, but also are super common knowledge anyway
Wasn’t the mail train used to traffic children/could still be being used for that
Listed in every guidebook.
There’s also another river at an underground station (idk which one) which is covered up its the River Westbourne
Traitor's Gate is straight-up labeled.
Traitors gate is one of the tower of londons main tourist attractions there is a whole museum for the mail tunnels and the river fleet goes right above a tube stations that thousands see everyday lol I think you need to look up the meaning of the word secret
I am 56 ...I new this when i was 15
Other places in the UK have rivers hidden underground. I know there’s some in a city called Sheffield because I’ve seen documentaries on it
Down Street station is abandoned but not secret, fire brigade have training sessions there and regular hidden London tours are taken there.
are you kidding me. you missed the third tunnel.on the Victoria Line all the others are common knowledge to any Londoner
Mate, please define "secret" for me. As a rail enthusiast, I knew about a few of these which were not railway related such as river fleet and the tunnel under parliament
The mail train is true but its now used as a museum called the bank of london i think
There is a lady who is flying with an umbrella singing, just a spoonful of sugar, and the fentanyl go down
There’s also a tunnel under Buckingham palace
Anyone else getting Neil Gaiman Neverwhere vibes?? Especially with Down Street?
If you're posting this, they aren't secret.
Like Harry Truman said, the secret is, there is no secret
All of these are common knowledge
Literally NONE of these are secrets
I have been in the tunnel it is in Greenwich and Mail Rail lots of times
The first one i heard from Oversimplified
Is no one going to mention the eerie man standing in the River Fleet ? No ? Okay.
There’s a SECRET RIVER that flows through London called ‘the Thames’…..
There's a Secret Palace in London where the Royals sometimes live, it is connected to a Secret Castle by a Secret Highway/Motorway (M4), outside London in a place called Windsor
Ask me about more Secrets 😂
The fleet is not a river, its just a sewer. It was made part of the sewage system over 100 years ago
It used to be a river before that
It was not built in the 19th century, it's been there for thousands of years
You forgot to mention the werewolf of London.
There's this secret thing that everyone knows about and is a major historical fact that I recorded in millions of public sources. So many secrets. 😅😅😅😅😅
Every Londoner knows these
I know all of these “secrets”! I’m English. 🏴🇬🇧
These aren’t secret items.
They’re not all very well known about.
Quite a difference.
Mail Rail is famous
I already knew about the 3rd one. It was shut down in 2003, sadly 😔
Yeah.. I can imagine…
Umm, I'm from the UK, but not a Londoner and I know all of these "secrets"...
Definitely knew all those and so most people in the uk know
Traitors Gate was never a secret.
It was very public.
Traitors were chained to the wall.
Many years ago the tidal Thames would flood Traitors gate and drown the Traitors.
Bazelgette built the main London sewer past the Tower of London .
It's now known as the Embankment and provides a viewing point of Traitors Gate.
these are not secrets, we all know that.
Another little secret,London is the capital city of England but don’t tell anyone I’ve told you
The ‘traitors gate’ is not a secret. It’s signposted…
Only Americans can get away with this bull 💩.
Marvellous to read how everybody says that they know all of these, when the very first one in the video is totally fictitious!
None of these are secrets.
Traitor's Gate has its name above it plus its mentioned on any Tower Of London tour.
You can pay to ride on part of the Mail Rail network.
Down Street was a public tube station from 1907 to 1937. Its a disused station, not secret.
The Jubilee Line tube line was originally called the Fleet Line.
I'm a Londoner. We know this stuff.
How the hell is traitors gate a secret? You can see it from the river?
None of that is secret, and certainly not Traitors' Gate which derives from Traders' Gate, the entrance that Traders used to visit the tower of London by boat. As for the others, they're all well know places.
They need reopen the Tower of London the crime rates are on the raise again
You really need a reason to have people subscribe. Calling things "secret" when they are openly known in the public domain is not that reason.
I found a secret CZcams Short!
River Fleet pal, nae Flett .
None of these are secrets, they are all common knowledge
These are NOT secrets we learned this in history at school back in the 60’s/70’s
I'm from London and I know all off them lol
Spooky....
Dude STOP calling things a secret when they obviously aren't, especially while you're showing us the pictures.
So 1 thing then. London has tunnels.
"Secret," lol
Interesting facts but none of them secret. Some just less well known 😂
Traitors gate originally traders gate.
So.... Not secret, Not secret, Not secret, Not secret aaand Not secret.
I'm guessing you're only addressing Americans with that initial statement, these are not secrets or hidden.
None of theses are secrets 😅
Where is the secret????
Bro I’m born and raised until 7 in Brixton nothing u can say or do is a secret, ITS LONDON
I knew all of them.
All of the information has always been known, so why the secrecy crap, why create the drama when we Brit's are familiar with these tunnels..

My first love is LONDON❤😂❤
