Nostrils now filled with tube dust

[@mrcritic3387]

She's hit the nail on the head, This is the most accurate explanation of taking the tube, I've seen if there ever was one.

[@Lenexa1]

Looks like a subway

[@JohnSmith-sm7ez]

Nice clothes don’t get dirty from the seats. Pure exaggeration.

[@andredrayton5668]

Why does it genuinely feel like that on the London Underground?? I look around, and everyone is pretending to be uninterested in anyone else. I presume it’s because we’re all in such close quarters of each other.

[@beesforbreakfast]

Except for the part where she actually scores a seat

[@dorindatodd123]

Reading a book isn't a good idea as it can distract you from pick pockets that love to travel on the tube. If you must take the tube be aware of your surroundings and either oeople with you. The tube usnt as dirty as this woman claims as all carriages are cleaner every day. Other passengers don't give a toss who you are. They just want to get to tgere destination. Being dumb or clever means nothing your a commuter. Thiscwomen has only said one thing that's important to know don't make I contact. Thus woman us Australian and has no clue of the reality of the London tube. I'm a londonderry born and breed. Ignore her she's clueless. I'm installed by her comments especially the dirty seats which aren't. My adopted nephew works on them his dream job. He does 12 hour shifts the days on, 4 days off then 3 nights on 4 days off. So I know more than this woman does. I'm insuted by her ignorance. And people shouting hapoening thus us the london underground it hapoens

[@AdrianColley]

It's important to look smart, but it's critically important to look uninterested in anyone else.

[@oliverknagg5109]

If you venture into certain larger stations like Bank, lay a trail of string and pray you ever emerge from the labyrinth. Be sure to notice how the geography of the tunnels seems to change around you as you walk in a loop for miles and miles comforted only by the busker’s bizarre alien instrument you have never seen anywhere else and will likely never see again

[@KatharineOsborne]

I have seen that instrument! It was at King's Cross. Or was it St. Pancras?

[@Chippychips83]

You're doing shroom therapy?

[@janTasita]

Actually you will see the instrument again: that's how you realise you've been going in circles the whole time.

[@vulnicura7839]

I only went into Bank station once when I lived in London as I thought it’d be a quick cut across to my location… I got lost in there for over an hour across a million different tunnels.

[@ugghhzilla]

I felt that headphoneless pain on the tube IN MY SOUL 😂

[@potato1084]

Same and the pain of running out of battery

[@mari4569]

[@dmk_games]

They have a unique variety of mosquito's that only live in those tunnels. The air is also still full of Victorian era soot. ~~~ the magic of London

[@obi-ron]

That's not soot, it's the burned remains of residents of the cemetaries above you being shaken loose by the vibration if the trains 😅😅

[@CoconutJones_]

The species of mosquito is called Culex Pipiens and it's not unique to the London Underground; it is found worldwide.

[@Ohlookitsdaisyy]

The most important thing to remember (and something that always outs non-Londoners) is to hold on to something or really steady your stance when the tube starts moving if you’re standing. The little jolt and stumble is scary if you’re not used to it but can easily be avoided 😁

[@Crissy_the_wonder]

Why do Piccadilly line trains screech as if the breaks are always on

[@joiskyhigh]

Mate the Central line sounds like it's carving a new tunnel thru the rock every time

I am lucky to have found myself in London. Originally from South African. 50 years later! I am still trying to discover this Chilled, Magical! City. Unapologetic first World. Just too pricey! But we love you LONDON ❤ T

[@Chippychips83]

Ikr, one thing we need on the tube is decor in the tunnel. I was thinking like a flip book cartoon related to the tube, a man running with a briefcase , holding on to his hat, a young man jumping the turnstiles or giggly girls walking out giggling and dancing, perhaps a pigeon pecking crumbs of the floor ...something relatable... not annoying adverts.

[@sofia4w5]

That would be cool, we need something else than commercials

[@Marilyn-zv6mt]

Love it, great video........UK

[@mrrolandlawrence]

oh talking to people is fun ;) i found a fair few dates on the tube!

[@bluebutterfly4594]

Best time to talk to people is on a Saturday after the theatre. They are always so excited to share their experience.

[@quintuscrinis]

At the mental asylum, right? How did you get anyone to talk to you on the tube?

[@BelgraviaTottie]

You can barely have a conversation on the tube due to the sheer level of noise. In order to have a conversation you have to talk fairly loudly, which in turn means every one around you is a party to your conversation, which to say the least, is not all that romantic.

[@blenderpanzi]

It's so loud, hot, and cramped. Other tube systems aren't that loud, hot, and cramped. (Well, the one in Vienna is cold in winter and London does have a bit more frequent trains.)

[@lequoiscontreonu]

Not to mention you can actually get around the whole city via underground- New York has the same length of routes but its area is half of London. In London you often have to mix the tube with bus.

[@blaze3007]

That's one thing I hated when I was on the tube in London, being forced to awkwardly change my eye line in case I ended up inadvertently looking/staring at someone and offending them. Missed the Australian Sydney trains so much then

[@bluebutterfly4594]

How did you know you had offended them? I make it contact not always but sometimes and smile back at people. Depending on how we both I feel, it's either a smile back or just look away. There is no harm in acknowledging fellow passengers.

[@KatharineOsborne]

Oh the eyeline is the least of your problems. On the Northern line, there were multiple times my face was jammed into someone's sweaty armpit, we we all packed so tightly.

[@nahdahsholihah4248]

So in Australia you dont avoid make eye contact and they dont get offended or what...?

You’ve nailed it. Don’t wear white clothing and tracksuits are good to deal with the change in temperature as you can easily remove tops. I’m lucky I’m from Hampstead so my journey starts off outdoors and I only have to put up with the heat on my final stop.

[@Justwanawatchfunnyvideos]

I thought it was the left like in Australia?? And I thought we got that from the British haha

[@alexuvar1]

Dunno about London, but in Moscow there is always a line of people standing on the right and the line of people on the left who walk up along the escalator because they're in such a hurry. Sometimes during rush hour a metro worker would tell the passengers to stand in both sides

[@stephenxx8045]

It's stand on LEFT. Walk on right!

[@sebetc7]

Remember to stand to the left of the escalators Then I can yell at you Makes my morning ;-)

[@TellyMan200]

the headphones bit is funny but true, no eye contact ever

[@HazeEmry]

You stand on the right in the UK? Where I'm at, you stand on the left and people who rush, go up the right

[@KaiOpaka]

I still remember the time I saw somebody fall on the escalator and one of the Tube employees was just standing there and everyone farther back yelled like, "Are you not going to help?" I think they were shamed to act by the time some of the public were able to get up to her.

[@natashalutes2796]

Right on about the dirty seats. They have found fecal matter on them, and they are NEVER washed/shampooed. After knowing that, I prefer the hard plastic seats of some other transit trains.

[@laurakirwan999]

Well done. I also add don't eat or do anything that involves touching your face on the underground due to aforementioned fith.

[@Dzidzeme]

London and New York City are really family because it’s literally the same for New York subway 😂

[@ThalesWell]

Those escalators are super fast anyway

[@alastairbarkley6572]

Are the Tube's seats dirty? Not in my experience (and, I'm a Londoner). The seat material isn't just any old material but an iconic moquette styled in different designs and colours for each of the different Tube lines. It's resistant to grease and fluids and vacuums easily. AFAIK, train cleaning - which is done pretty often - involves vacuuming the seats. If the exterior of the train looks shiny clean (and they usually do), the interior is likely to have been cleaned as well.

Also remember London Underground is haunted (yes it really is!). Make sure to walk around the old tunnels of Bank, Tottenham Court Road, Goodge St Oh, special mention Elephant & Castle and Kennington late at night. Even better when your alone.
