Trafficking tunnels.

I like the fact that you just speed up the video through the less interesting bits rather than just editing it out like most people this way we get to see everything. Keep up the good work.

It's impressive how this large complex of tunnels is being maintained. Somebody must be making regular inspections, looking for structural weaknesses, and then installing appropriate reinforcements.

I'm obsessed. I live in Fresno California. I discovered an entrance to what used to clearly be a much more complex tunnel system under the business at which i work. I did some research, and learned that the "Chinatown" section, and a few others had a complex tunnel worlds under our boring city. I have just committed to going down. Inspired by you. Cheers guys

Fresno is the city of my birth, my father's birth, and my grandmother on my mother's side, also born here. I've heard quite a bit of the tunnels under old Chinatown, they've found broken china, and opium pipes and other things down there, while preparing that area for high speed rail. It's very interesting. There was Armenian town, German town and Little Italy also. My grandmother and dad grew up in Germantown.

Excellent video, no loud music too give us headaches, no staged frights, just a great video with with plenty of info and some history. Well done guy's and a big thank you for sharing.

That's what we aim for 👍 we don't like staged videos or unnecessary drama. Just facts and interesting places 👌

I appreciate your work. Although security might view you as trespassers of a sort, you are doing a good piece of raw historical documentation and making it available to the public. We shouldn't forget the necessary lengths taken by the allies, particularly those very geographically close to the enemies who saw great physical attacks on their homes, to protect their lands and especially the people therein. Explorations like this demonstrate how resourceful the Brits were.

Every other subex channel ` *long weird intros, cave diving level flashlights, bypass dodgy areas These lads *straight into it, down every tunnel and shaft like a damn ferret. Love your work!

It's SO interesting to go exploring with you. You give such a detailed explanation of everything. You make me feel like I'm right there with you. Keep up the good work.

Huge fan man!! I love how your videos stay the same awesome quality. I love how you talk about the history as well as the things that go on in the modern day as you're walking through the area's you're documenting. Seriously your channel should be a lot bigger than it is. You're straight professional about everything you do as well. Keep up the exploring!!

This is a part of History that People don't know Exists, so Great to to See it, Thanks So Much to You and Your Team......

Anytime I'm in a cave or mine system, right hand rules always. This will prevent becoming disoriented. As always, another great explore with interesting historic references.

I lovw that you give the history of it and don't leave the viewers in the dark! New subscriber and I'm in love with ur channel.

So nice to see such a fabulous tunnel complex not covered in graffiti ! Great video as always Simon.

Cracking explore glad you take us on these great adventures sound and photos on point once again

18:47 - When I was a kid in the 1970s Fairy washing up liquid bottles used to look like that. In the late 70s Mr O'Connor, my primary school teacher, brought in an oil can just like that and a camping stove. He lit the stove, took the cap off of the can, and put it on top of the stove. He left it there for a few minutes, then took it off, put the cap back on the can, and we all watched with fascination as it collapsed in on itself. Love the old beer cans earlier on in your video, from previous decades, before current cold extrusion manufacturing techniques, when they used to weld together opposite sides of a sheet of steel or aluminium to form a tube with a seam, before adding the top and the bottom. That was back in the days when the ring pulls were designed to completely detach.

I really enjoy videos like this. Besides enjoying tunnels, they also inspire me to add tunnels to some of the game maps I occasionally create. For some reason, tunnels just hold something for me but I can't explain it. The different ways of support shown is interesting. The maze aspect of these tunnels is fascinating. Keep up the great work and exploration.

I love to see underground Tunnel explorations something very interesting and exciting about finding signs of the past! Thank you for sharing 🙏

Just smashing love your videos. Keep up the great work cheers

Love exploring with you guys...lead the way lads there is a light at the end of the tunnel!

Wow what a amazing tunnel complex😀Super awesome video like always bud thanks so much for sharing 😀

this is mind-blowing! Thank you!

That one was excellent! Thanks for sharing!

Hi Badger!! Merry Christmas SE and Co!!

Another great explore, even love the retro litter, it's all history. I remember those old crisp packets when you could actually see how many crisps you were getting lol,

Interesting explore! A Peaceful, Prosperous 2020 to U & Yrs - Cheers!

It's sometimes frustrating watching explorers who are not very thorough; these guys _are_ thorough - every nook and cranny. feels like i'm there. very good.

Loved this and could hear you brilliantly xx

Brilliant as always

Awesome Simon. Thank you.

It’s an amazing set of tunnels. Give thanks to the first guys that opened this up and made it possible for people to visit at all

What an amazing tunnelling job. Great stuff. Many thanks, Paul in Lower Boddington

Brilliant bit of tunnelling. I do know where you are, and I'm glad to see it. Love the huge pile of rusting 'Flimsies' (square fuel/oil cans used before the British in North Africa discovered the tough pressed steel cans the Afrika Korps were using, and adopted them for their own use, and known forever after as the 'Jerry Can'.), just rotting away. Fascinating stuff. Nice one. 28:05 - I thought they were huge spiders at first, but they're seismic motion detectors. The numbers on the walls are to do with the monitoring of the unstable area, breaking it up into small 'districts' that can easily be monitored for movement.

In my experience when empty metal containers are found there's a reason why soldiers don't take out useless items. Hiding a roll of French postcards would be my first guess.

Brilliant video mate

awesome !just watched the chinobal binge watching!

Interesting cool thanks for showing us and taking us on a journey I can't believe the amount of damage there was alot more going on there just recently

I find my tunnels under Detroit. No, not the salt mine excavations that extend deep under the city. I'm looking for buried lower levels of vacated industry. My best find was a concrete chamber with dusty World War Two relics. Like identification papers regarding aircraft of the Axis Powers. Probably to assist surface civil defense locations that had searchlights and air raid sirens. Usually what I find are the drainage tunnels or manhole access to utilities. Found under soil and collapse rubble. Assisted by the Michigan Technological University and their Society for Industrial Archaeology. Try using Google Earth to locate a now sealed and disused tunnel in Detroit extending into Canada. Yup, big enough to drive your wheels through.

This place is epic - I remember seeing it on forums years back, so much original graffiti. I remember Salt and Linekar, and was it Tears and Onion with Gazza crying on the TV ad? 😂

You guys are awesome. Xxx merry Christmas

Great video, you guys. Keep up the good work. Take care and keep well. You guys are so brave. God bless you all....

Love your work bud

WOW THOSE TUNNELLS ARE AMAZING, I LOVE THE WAY YOU BROUGHT US THROUGH THE WHOLE TUNNEL SYSTEM SO WE GOT TO SEE EVERYTHING, WISH I WAS THERE,I ALWAYS WANTED TO DO EXSPLORING SINCE I WAS A KID, BUT NEVER GOT INTO IT AS AN ADULT BECAUSE MY LIFE WENT DOWN A DIFFERENT PATH,

sub is back proper , and I couldn't be happier!

Thanks fore sharing great adventure! Love from Sweden ✨💖

@31:21 the random skeleton thing just hanging out lol! These tunnels are cool with all the face carvings!

What a fantastic place, great explore guys really enjoyed video 🇬🇧🇬🇧🛸🛸👍

Here in the US we have quite a few abandoned mines and WWII coastal forts and bunkers. Lots of them on the Islands off Maine!

Amazing exploring🎆

22:00 I wonder why there would be security in that abandoned and empty place..

@johnrauner2515

4 жыл бұрын

What's above it isn't abandoned and empty. There's a fortification open to the public after payment of an excessive amount. And then between that surface fortification and these tunnels there is another tunnel system also open to the public, after payment of an amount that would make Dick Turpin blush. And this is in the center of a major city.

@ 32:16, not a dead end. There's a tunnel on the right just behind the wall

AMAZING 🤩❣

In awe at the size of this place.

Thanks for the view. Pretty amazing. I'm from S.C.

Did you ever think that those tunnels might be a much earlier act originally. They have just been re-enabled.

This is crazy. Love it

Love the history behind it and wish I could see it for myself

Good to see those places public can't normally see.

Very cool chunk of history. Stick to the right or left hand rule while underground and ya won't get lost. Yall be safe out there

WAW. there is. A lot of smoke damage. As stated

what is the No no spot he is referring to? Said, If you see something big and black, don't shine your torch on it, what is he referring to?

09:32 - Old electrical heating element. 3 or 4 bar looking at it.

Amazing tunnels, thanks for sharing this. Can you track the paths from the surface or show a regional map. I would like seeing what is connected or where these lead to.

Sadly I cannot share such information. Vandals follow people like me and places get destroyed ☹️

Pre- Napoleonic in origin? Chalk, so likely around Dover? Bakelite was around for quite a while before WW2. Sometimes these old places have other levels, that are kept quiet, which are still active.
