INSANE DISCOVERY // TABLE MOUNTAIN SECRET TUNNEL

[@andriesauret9844]

My father worked at the dams on table mountain. As kids we used to go through the tunnel numerous times. This was during the 1950s . We lived at Kloofnek dam where my father erected a cannon in 1941. This cannon found in the glen was hauled up to its present position in front of the house next to the dam. This cannon is still there today. For obvious reasons ( dangerous at entry from Campsbay side) the Woodhead tunnel gate had to be locked. Us kids Had the spare key for entry and exit toe other side to go and visit the rangers living on the mountain. There is also a small museum housing the small locomotive and other ietems used during the building of the dams.

3:27 what is that stone? It has boring holes that seem very precise. 2 square openings or cuts parallel to 2 rectangles.

[@alistairknox5381]

Nice blister bush on left at 2:18. You don't want bare skin to brush against it: sun causes watery blisters after. Had marks for years after it happened to me. Upper cable station(yes, lots of unsuspecting tourists!) has zillions.

I genuinely appreciate the quality of your videos man. The movie clips in between. Man 10/10🔥👌

Where can one find those contour maps?

[@AdamSpiresWannabeVlogger]

Sheesh I don’t know, one of the matts had it 😂

[@mazafhakar3971]

Nice, and Thanx Enough clues in your vid for an adventurer to piece in the gaps and have a go at finding this spot.

[@AdamSpiresWannabeVlogger]

Maza Fhakar bru be safe and go hiking with a group who know what they’re doing 😊

[@craigbeall5084]

I did this tunnel many many years ago before the metal stairway on the west side entrance collapsed (or was pulled down). At that time the east side entrance was fully blocked with metal panelling so you could only get in on the west side.

You ever done the Disa Gorge to Table Top route? Quite an 8-hour challenge! Starting in Hour Bay though. Be prepared to get quite lost, go with Mountain Club Guide, and take map and compass. Of course you need a permit . Top of the mountain always has a lot of cloud and rain, so when you arrive at the Cable Car and see a hot fire roaring in the restaurant up top, you clambee through the window, past the queues, and stand just about on top of the fire. Then you go down by cable-car to where some of you have left your cars and voila! The last half-hour is a killer. Exhausted from your walk, you face a steep climb up steps....a 90° cliff...and you just concentrate on pacing and moving your legs up the following step. Nothing else in your mind. That was not the day we met a Cape Cobra on the path, but it could so easily have been. Amazing hike!

[@thedarius1327]

done this one it is beyond awesome of an experience, lucky you we also got lost but it took us about 6 hours going a very long way haha

[@truter5243]

You need to go back. You missed the rusty pipe GeoCache in Woodhead tunnel

[@francirothman1440]

Always like your video's! Thank you.. Amazing.

Franci Visser thank you 😊

[@jasminerosebellydancer6574]

Wonder why it's not maintained. Great video

[@PaulojnPereira]

It inspires a great deal of confidence when the guy in the back rotates the map up a down several times and ends up checking its verse. I hope he´s not your guide....

[@matthewwhiteIKV]

Disa Gorge hasn't been untouched... I'm 53 and as a youngster that was our most common route up to the top of Table Mountain, no permits and fences until some dickhead decided to close it all.

[@AdamSpiresWannabeVlogger]

Its not closed...its only open to those who want a permit and they can obtain one by reaching out to SANPARKS...it was fairly easy.

[@paulkruger1482]

@@AdamSpiresWannabeVlogger that's not what I meant, I know you can get a permit but if I decide I wanna hike tomorrow then the procedure makes it a bit difficult. Some people have demanding jobs and theirs might be a spontaneous decision.

[@AdamSpiresWannabeVlogger]

@@paulkruger1482 Yup, I hear you. I guess the opposite is true that if anyone could just simply go there without at least one gate to go through then that area mught be negatively effected. It has a very sensitive ecosystem with with an ancient forest that was getting destroyed (they are now making a come back). Only 12 hikers a day are allowed so if one really wants to go there then an effort needs to be made. Because of these measures the area is flourishing.

Of course. It is to be expected. As it is part of an ancient-culture pyramid structure. People wake up Table mountain ⛰ is not natural formation due to erosion. What a nonsense. You can even see the rows of megalithic blocks that formed this megalithic structures. Table mountain is an old ancient-culture fortress. It is a megalithic structure. Just like Bucegi Mountains in Romania, the Dolomites in Austria and Italy and the Pyramid of the Sun in Bosnia. See pyramids here too. Petra, Hegra, Sedona, Utah, and other red rocks in the deserts of the world with red sands are melted megalithic structures, after a furnace effect was created upon an asteroid collision. The spot of the collision is easy to see, due to salt formation such us the Dead Sea and Salt Lake and other salt lakes all over the world. The red sands are terracotta baked limestone grounds. Hegra, Sedona and Utah are similar to old temples in India and Thailand. Nothing that stays vertical or is arched or pyramidal is a natural geographic structure. It is all megalithic. People wake up. Sodom and Gomorrah are carbonized at ground zero under and around the Dead Sea btw
