This has been reported in dailymail.co.uk dated 5 April 2016.
The video was reportedly shot by a person who was traveling on the Emirates Air Line cable cars near Greenwich. They offer views across the river to its thousands of monthly passengers. The video footage shows a humped figure making its way through the huge river near the O2 Arena - before sinking back under the water.
The individual thought that it was a whale or a weird submarine - it was something huge and moving under the water and then briefly surfaced.
Some people think it is an April Fool's joke. But the fact remains that there has been instances of an unusual creature being spotted in the capital's river. In January 2006, a northern bottle-nosed whale spent several days in the Thames after becoming lost while heading for the deep waters of the North Atlantic. It ultimately died on its way back to sea after having captured the hearts of thousands of people who had thronged to watch it swim through central London.
